I had a gut feeling we would be hearing something today, so have been checking media outlets all day. Thanks for this!

 

[Docker82]

Usually when Twomey reports something like that it isn't long until the club follows suit.

Banfield is probably the player that it's been obvious we need to re-sign for months now. There's two or three others that imo have added themselves to that list over the last month as well. Hopefully it's a busy month.

 

[FreoGirl]

there seems to be a cluster of signings this week, which is why I've been hoping Banners might be one of them

Frick yeah! Take the deal Banners.

 

[anchor man]

Gotta love Banners. His community work and involvment is amazing.Planting trees the other day.And then Robbo,360, has him as his love of the week for his gesture to the young fella in hospital after kicking a goal.
His heart is of enormous size.
I am / will be so glad, that we sign him on for another few years.
A bit like Shaun McManus, the heart and soul of our club.

 

[FreoGirl]

I'm happy that Banners has been offered a contract, and it is now up to him. If he leaves, I just have to accept that Freo tried. I would be surprised if he left.

 

[hoss]

He's been good and deserves a contract. Third highest goalscorer (18) for us this year behind JT (30) and Jye (22).

Far from shocker too much focus on every error he makes, but nothing on the good.. Good lead up kick to treacy... Set up Frederick's goal running back into forward line.. Not sure if that young kick with the swirling breeze was as good as it was

But sure you came in here to let us know

He fumbled plenty of times. He did a couple of good things.

He must be avoid of criticism

I have him/her on ignore but wondered who it was who came in here to once again kick him in the guts - thankfully nobody important

 

[serial_thrilla]

I thought he did a good job when swung into the backline in the fourth quarter. You need utility players like that.

 

[FreoGirl]

He did do a few stuff ups, but so did Clark. I always cringe when he makes mistakes because I am waiting for his critics to come down harder on him than any other players. We need to get over the whipping boy mentality.

He did. His forward craft was scrappy at times.

 

[Footskill]

Can't help but think Banners plays his best games when the team is performing badly or when the game is on the line ..in games when we flogging the Oppo he has his quieter games.. lol Dockery or good thing

Nah, that's usually Freddy. Banfield gets heaps of criticism.
