I was confused too. The face pic in the screenshot looked like a man's face.I’m seriously missing something here.
Lindsay is a bloke. I taught his children.
Someone said ‘Auntie Pickett’
I was just correcting them.
Why the laughs?

Sorry youre not having fun with us FeederGenuinely based on what?
I spent the last 12 months reading a bunch of bulldust about Logan genuinely happening too, iwhen it also smelt unlikely to me.
I've got no ITK, it just doesn't look like the sort of deal that will happen for several (I would have thought) obvious reasons.. Just like Logan.
I'm excited over Bolton because that will happen barring some **** up.
Even "done deals" can fall over because nothing is done until it's actually done.I think we went cold on Logan when Treacy emerged. Now Picket and Bolton are a different story, elite and offer us something we are crying out for.
YOKAI!Kicking shitloads of goals and taking hangers at Optus aside.... It'll make me really bloody happy having high-end indigenous talent on our list again. That's our identity, man.
Too bloody deadly.
Or like an NBA style sign and trade.Lately it is more contracted than uncontracted players that are getting traded or requesting trades.
Man it would be an awfully nice side benefit wouldn't it?Kicking shitloads of goals and taking hangers at Optus aside.... It'll make me really bloody happy having high-end indigenous talent on our list again. That's our identity, man.
Too bloody deadly.
Why is it every time I come across your posts you seem to be raging at someone. Why not chill out a bit.Well obviously the resident trading genius has spoken and all further discussion is moot. When you get that job as head recruiter at an AFL club and aren't allowed to post here anymore, will you miss bigfooty?
Some new best 22s. Who's gonna shift or be depth...or retire?
You're the one that made it personal, goose
Rhino says what he's told to say. WA needs a snake leaker like Morris. I actually had some injury intel on one of our players years ago and the only Journo that replied to me was Morris and he was going to run with it.I don't know wtf he's playing at now, like, Bolton is clearly getting to Freo
Makes sense. There is no way Bolton can be on over $1mSnuffaluphagus and some others said here yesterday that Switkowski was on $600k.
On what planet would Shai Bolton and Sam Switkowski have the same salary?
their list manager will throw in a personal blowjob for walls for thatWould you be fine with 10, 27 and a F1?
You stole his Father off us by rorting the salary cap anyway!I'm not angry at Freo fans..? he hasn't officially said that he wants to come to Freo.
Nah, we have Kalani White but given the exodus of Petracca and maybe Pickett as well as ANB and losing Brayshaw, having Mac Andrew stolen from us and losing Jackson there's more likely chance that he'll nominate Gold Coast as his destination as he's in their academy. Then again, there are mixed reports on him. but there's been nothing to suggest that he's going to be a first round sort of prospect.
Hopefully the smoke will be the welcome back to country for two of the most exciting forward talents in the league.Kozzie will be the same, give it a few more days and the smoke will be fire.
Unlike the Logan thing this is happening during exit interviews, not preseason speculation
So when we flick currency into the following year and lose 2 best 22 players we should just get better magically? We should also not spend that huge war chest we created by waiting 12 months?Freo will bleed draft picks for the boost next year.
campaigners are in damage control and starting to look over the shoulder after this waste of a season.
Waste of 3 seasons after losing so many best 22.
Damage control is not a way to run a club.
Man the first thing WC need to trade/ draft in is some decent defenders .Pickett is young enough that West Coast can justify it.
I'd still be surprised because he'll cost plenty and small forwards aren't usually the centerpiece of a rebuild.
Fyfe is not retiring.Not with Brodie leaving, Fyfe retiring and JOM having two years.
He should get the chance to step up next year and take JOM’s spot. Simple
I meant in the future. 1-2 years.Fyfe is not retiring.
St Kilda fans are welcome anytime after Sundays win.Coming in peace
Good summation.Coming in peace, I am from WA and have a soft spot for Freo.
I think Freo has to go all in on this, especially considering the age of both Bolton and Pickett. If they were both 28, it's a different story, but having players this good at this age request to come to your club just doesn't happen. I don't know how serious/realistic the Pickett idea is, but I think it has to be given a proper crack.
Bolton + Picket instantly turns your biggest weakness into a massive strength and I think if you can pull it off it's by far the best 22 in the comp (assuming fitness).
No core players 30+ except maybe Fyfe. Brayshaw, Serong, Jackson, Clark, Pickett, Young, Amiss, Treacy, Draper, Pickett all 24 and under, with Erasmus, Johnson, Voss, NOD etc all developing and fighting for spots aswell. Could have almost half your best 22 be under 25 yrs old who are proven already at AFL level.
Not a situation in which its an ageing list that needs FRP injections, it's an extremely young list that is already top 4 potential. I am excited to see if Freo pull the trigger and go for it.
So is Baker no longer on the radar? He has more experience across all patches of the ground.
Is Warner out in favour of the Bolton/Pickett combo?
We will happily pay this.I think two firsts is reasonable if one is late and one is mid first round. That or a top 5 pick. Absolutely shattered if he goes but we kinda need to blow it up.
