Banfield, Fyfe, Walters, JoM and Aish played 100 games last season.

Fyfe had his best year in 5, and didn't get injured, and still barely held a spot in the 22.
Walters really slowed towards the end of the year. Unlikely to best 22.
Aish was dropped from best 22.
Banfield was dropped, and not in best 22.
JoM held a spot in the 22 just, another year older I don't see him improving.
Good way to look at things - how do we improve those 100 games?

I reckon NOD could take 20 of them at as good or higher quality. Maybe cooper Simpson could take a few and then maybe Ras. We honestly don’t have a lot pushing these guys out though.

So we really do need to bring in at least 1 and preferably 2 high end players - who can replace these guys with something much better… an upgrade from fringe 22 to top 10.

There is so much smug in that room, it's a wonder anyone can breathe.

Also TLDR: don't see him leaving, but clubs would come hard.
Kane: If you leave Freo you're an idiot. So setting up ready to pot the club or a player later on.
 
As per West sorta, would you swap Kosi for Darcy?
This is the type of move that the club has never done that I can recall. That is trading out a 1st 22 player for a greater need to benefit the overall team. And if we want the capital to trade Kossi, Bolton and Warner I believe now is the time to do it. Darcy is an option here but there's a few others too that would suitable. But as I said we've never done this so would be surprised but impressed if we went down this route.
 
Think we should be looking into Rosas Jr if Pickett falls through
We are according to my mate that has contact with Freo Board members via his work. Freo is chasing an under utilised pressure forward from another club which is why we made a play for Joe Richards. Rossas was kicking 2 goals a game before a bad hamstring injury Round 7 this year. He's both quick and skillful. He is also contracted so he'd require a trade. Possibly the Saints 4th rounder.

Hes from Darwin which for some strange reason falls under the suns academy.

He’d be a good get if kozzie isn’t an option. That unfortunately I think is becoming a real possibility. Sam Edmund said on crunch time Melbourne won’t trade him.

Sammy putting the kibosh on himself & trade radio this year. Shame

Not so much player related but Fremantle are heavily pursuing Adam Simpson for the position title General Manager of player development.
Is that a rebrand of Bob's "Vibe of the Thing" role? That would be a hard role for him to turn down you'd hope

Didn't Bob end up as a specialist skills coach and head of AFLW?

Was still a vibe role, but had measurables.
 
Wingard has retired.

Shame to see him go out that way, probably would have got a farewell game if the Hawks weren't pushing for the 8
He was a decent player. Injuries caught up with him, and ultimately stuffed him. Cruel game sometimes
 
Wingard trade is interesting, pick 15, 35 and a former pick 19 (Ryan Burton). Was he at a similar trade value to what Bolton is now?
 
How high is one of the Camporeale's expected to go in the draft? With the GC academy player and Battle our picks are already gonna be pushed out to 11 and 12 on draft night at a minimum.

At his best, he was a level above Bolton. (Talent wise at least)

I don't think he worked hard enough to be most out of himself, and his talent could only take him so far. He was already having issues at Port before he left along the lines of not working hard enough in the off season etc etc.

4 seasons where he kicked 38+ goals or more is impressive.
