And less White-Pointers poking out.  They're mostly tanned, all year round.

The DZ's know them better as knockers, DV8

    Dr Turf just said that the 4 way trade is done and it’s just some minor details to work out. 

     

    For real?

    Freo demanded Pick#2 (2017) for Weller, what didid they expect we'd let Hogan go for? What a bunch biased armatures. Typical Fremantle, they just can't finish.

    My first and only contribution to this ridiculous thread:

    I want Hogan to stay, not interested in May.

    If Freo are truly out, then I'm ecstatic. 

    Hopefully no bridges between player and club have been burnt in this debacle.

    Maybe this might show Hogan that Freo really don’t want him cause if they did they would have come to the party or at least offered a FAIR trade. 

    It’s like seeing a house for a $1.00m and offer $500k and expecting a positive response. 

    Freo have shown just how pathetic and childish they are and clearly can not play with the big boys.

    now is the time to cuddle up to young Jesse and sign him for four years at $800-900k

    that's what a Hawthorn ... the family club... would do

    Bottom four for Freo.

    Fyfe going to be rapt to be kicking the Sherrin to that no-name hack forward line again.

    What a joke of a club.

    I think the bridges at Freo are all burned to the ground.

    That's pretty key now.  Very strange outcome to a long period of speculation.

    Well we almost got the triple century a fine knock nonetheless.

    And my 5 year old daughter will be stoked as Jesse is her favourite player

    Did not expect that.

    Amateur hour from Peter Bell.

    They obviously think they’ll get him next year on the cheap.

    If I were Jesse I would think that wraps up any thought of playing for Freo ever now. If they dont value him or want him then we all move on and they can stop bugging him every year. Imagine for a moment if Jesse is playing well next year and in the top 3 or 4 goalkickers...and  the dees are in the top four. Imagine how dispirited the players at Freo will feel about this and how stupid Bell will feel. Plus they have dicked around the trade period for a week...joke of a club. 

    Jesse to Freo is over for GOOD now. Jesse to WC might be in play next year more likely for players than picks or a mix. But lets see if we can Jesse back up and about after his foot injury and stamp his name as a dominant key forward.

    Well, now that the Hogan trade is off the table, can we all get back to discussing biscuits?

    have we discussed the relative benefits of Scotch fingers... excellent dunking if one is into that kind of thing

    Guess this is what happens when you pluck a boundary line commentator for the WAFL off the streets to run your footy club. Peter Bell is an amateur and has set his club back a decade.

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.
