Think all involved with Fremantle have done extremely well this trade period. Very satisfied
I would love to give them 61 for Kersten but Bulldogs might not be happy with that. We have pick 7, 40, 63 now.
Welcome to Freo Joel, your mate Shane will be joining you soon. Really looking forward to Joel and Alex Pearce playing together for many years down back and learning from MJ/SNOS. Both have height and speed and will be difficult to beat and opposition will not be able to flip their forwards to get an easy match up between those two.
We'll def take pick 61 for Kersten. Cheers.

Maybe freo being crap again triggered their nostalgia from when they were growing up
There is an 'unknown' element to Hamling that makes this trade all the more exciting - he played an awesome late-season and finals campaign this year and toweled up Buddy. On the other hand he hasn't played a huge amount of footy before that.
I'd be resistant in calling him mid-tier or a stable, secure player - he has enough X-factor to be something massive for us. That's the beauty of being his age and in his position; I can't wait to see what he can do.

Just rub his nose in it once or twice, he's a relatively quick learner.
You've done well here, he's ready to go and you'll get 100+ games out of him easily. With Pearce there he's a good no 2 defender.
Don't worry, he'll enjoy going for a swim at the beach.
Youre right it is very exciting. It will be interesting to see who gets the number 1 forward, Hamling or Pearce? who do we see as more of our rebounding defender and who is the more of a lock down defender? or can we play Hamling, Pearce and Collins in the same team in the future once Johnson moves on. So many questions and so many new things to try out during the pre season.

Just about raps up one of the most impressive off seasons ive seen by a team, easily the best this year.
Not often you see a team recruit a KPF (capable of kicking over 50 a season) and a KPD (who after his finals series looks like an AA CHB).
Hill is also a handy player, you get the romance of the beothers playing together.
Top 8 looks likely, well played.
Id like to see how freos best team comes together on paper, things look more exciting than that 2013 side.

Long as he dosnt chew up my ****ing shoes. Lol
Collins takes the biggest forward, Pearce second, Hamling on the dangerous small / medium. Crozier main distributor out of defense and hopefully one of the youngsters like Tucker, Sheridan etc can step up into that kind of role also.
Spurr Collins Hamling
Crozier A.Pearce Sheridan
or something along those lines.
The best cure is a good tap on the snout with rolled up copies of the newspaper, especially ones with "Crumpet Face" articles.

As bennel was picked up with this year's 2ND Rounder and he didn't play last year. You could almost add him to the list
Unfortunately dawson will be in there..

I reckon A.Pearce gets No1, Hamling No2, Johnson as the third tall. Crozier and Weller rebounding.
