Doubt there ever was an injury.

He convenient dumping from the games would be because of other issues im guessing.The club wanted him out of the way & because of it we performed better.We wouldnt have made it as far this year is the mummies boy was sitting in the forward 50 sulking & throwing his arms up in the air when midfield missed a target by 2 inches

Massive accusation totally unsupported by evidence.

“The doc told me there was a bit of a stress over the navicular [bone], so it’s three to four weeks completely off it, and then three to four weeks in the moon boot. I’m just trying to prepare for 2019.

Did he wear a moon boot for 3-4 weeks for laughs?

He was at the BnF in a moon boot isn't he? Although he was running into Freo without one.

Freo will trade Pick 5 to GWS for Lobb & Pick 14.

Means we'll get Picks 6 & 14 for Hogan.

if 14 gets us May it's a deal.

It probably won't so that's where life becomes interesting

PS.. sorry where did Freo get pick 6 from?

Tyson's worth a mid second rounder so perhaps that's fair

Heard on the Tyson thread that Tyson has said no to GC

Edited October 9, 20187 yr by Diamond_Jim

Well they aren’t going to give up Lachie Neale for pick 6 , on swap it and pick 5 for Hogan, Hogan would  be lucky to be worth a direct swap for Neale,  I reckon they would be very apprehensive  after the bad experience with Col as well.

I thought we were the 4th best but I'll take the free upgrade.

We played in second last game, so we must be third best....

It was clearly 3 suits but to be fair after having a think about it he probably stayed in Melbourne for the week and might have had other functions to attend in Grand Final week. Can't wear the same suit twice or thrice now can he?

I'm a big advocate for the bronze medal match played as a curtain raiser before the Granny.

it could be played AFLX style

Couldn't be worse than the usual pre match entertainment

Freo made a perfectly good AFL Footballer stand out for a whole year, which probably helped his career no end, and they will not be that stupid again. He could end up on a wave to SA.......

Yeah, nah.

Once you're out of the race for first, it's all over:

The man's not an animal!!!

I'd rather play for Freo than be caught wearing the same suit twice (or thrice) over a weekend!

Pick 14 to May and keep Pick 6.

That's my wish anyway!

Just a quick one fellas ?

Do we have enough room to keep Hogan while picking up May ?

Alex, we don't have anything to offer for May if we keep Hogan.

Financially yes, but we’d have nothing to trade to get May. We need first rounders, presumably from the Hogan trade, to bring May across.

Just to clarify re Fyfe he was voted in as captain by the playing group, like every club what supporters think of their captain has little relevance to the players

Next year's picks

After a comment from a wise man I think Mr. Hogan will be out and for less than we all think!!!!!!

To be fair there was pretty slim pickings after Pav retired.

My mail off a credible WA media personality is that the players aren't 'connecting' to Fyfes style.
