just put talks on hold over at Freo, good chance he won't leave but i believe we should give him an offer he can't refuse, best up and coming midfield talent in the comp imo

    Best up and coming?

    He's already there.

    I love the way he goes about his business.

    I have no doubt that if the dees picked up fyfe in the next off season, we would make some serious progress.

    Born and bred Sandgroper. Be very surprising if he moves interstate.

    Would anyone swap Fyfe for Frawley? Chip gets his chance at success, we get a gun mid in his prime.

    Me!

    I hope he's not in the leadership group.

    Remember guys, Ross and Roos are good mates, so we won't be poaching Fremantle players without a solid gift in return (and vice versa).

    But I can see a Frawley/Fyfe trade as a possibility here (and don't think both coaches haven't thought about it already).

    Absolutely agree. Why the hell would he go? Local boy, in a successful team with good culture on edge of a flag. Probably on good coin. Happy as a pig in mud. However, stranger things have happened.

    More Coin!

    Why has he put "talks on Hold"

    Sure sign to me that he wants more money.

    The strike ratio for the "talks on Hold" Players staying at their existing club is not high.

    No chance he comes to Melbourne and no chance Frawley will leave Victoria. Trade won't happen. Either way, Fyfe will stay at Freo, his manager is just waiting for a few articles to drive up his price thanks to GWS, than he'll sign. Mundy is a bigger chance to come to us.

  • Quote

    Fyfe will never leave WA, smart move by his manager, Freo has a war chest which they saved up for unsuccesful tilts at Clarke & Cloke, Sandilands, Mcpharlin & Pavlich all coming to the end. I can see Fyfe getting a very big front loaded contract and believe me they will come big for Jesse next season.

    A ball park figure of around $400-500k for him returning home after two years was spoken about last season (not revealing source) but I trust them. The source does not believe the offer was official and was just a matter of contact and discussion point.

    Source also stated Hoges is currently very happy at the Dees

    Really?

    You know Longmire & Clarkson are best mates..?

    What did Sydney send to Hawthorn in return for Buddy exactly??

    I was going to say forget about Fyfe we should go for Mundy who I believe has also put his talks on hold till the end of the year but I didn't realise he turns 29 in July so outside our demographic. Wouldn't think Fyfe would move but if he decided to Roos and Lyon are probably more likely than most to do a deal. After all when Lyon left the Swans and went to the Saints Roosy gave him Schneider for a very low pick and threw in Dempster for virtually nothing, so Lyon is more likely to be receptive than most. Still can't imagine that Fyfe will walk out on top four Freo for lowly D's. That view might be different by the end of the year.

    Is he a law student?

    If so we can do what we did with Dawes and have our Collins Street lawyers offer him a job after footy.

    Freo will ask for pick 2 (I think we'll finish 17th again) and Hogan.

    I heard Mundy was linked to the Hawks at years end, then again every player is seemingly linked to every club until he signs .

    I wouldn't be surprised to see Mitch Clark head to Freo next year. He was on his way there before we poached him.

    Why not use him as a bargaining chip to bolster our midfield with Fyfe.

    That way Freo will leave Hogan alone (hopefully)

    It's all pie in the sky though.

  • Quote

    The only swap Freo would entertain for Fyfe would be Hogan.

    There is probably not a club in the AFL that would want him.

    He is contracted for 2015 on big money at the Dees.

    Why would anyone take over that contract even if we paid half it.

    Right now his playing ability is probably rated one out of ten.

    Would need a massive second half of this season to attract any interest.

    I doubt that source, that is on the low side for Fyfe.

    Fyfe was a top 10 players in the comp in 2013, should be top 5 this year.

    If Freo offered him that, he'd spit on them. GWS are rumoured to offer Scully+ money, if he resigns it'll be absolute minimum 650-700 raising to 850 areas I'd think.

    Read it again.

    He was talking about Hogan.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
