Beams would have to take an enourmous pay cut to play with the filth. They couldn't afford his current wage and Brissy can dig their heels right in.

Beams contract was very much front ended, which is another reason why I think he should stay in Brissy.

With regard to Hogan and May if we get May and give up pick 5 but keep pick 11 I'm happy.

May will instantly improve our defence and yes Jesse will be missed but whilst it's a year early it is best to cash in now.

For those expecting Freo to finish in the bottom 4 next season you just never know. Don't underestimate the massive home ground advantage and if they get a good run with injury they can easily win 10 to 12 games with Hogan 

B.    Grey     Hamling      Wilson

HB. Cerra    Pearce       S.Hill

C.   Banfield Fyfe        B.Hill

HF. Walters  Hogan   Mundy

F.    Grey       Taberner Lobb

R. Darcy, Blackeny, Brayshaw 

I/C Conca, Langdon, Hughes, Ryan, Ballantine, Sheridan, Cox Etc.

Worst case scenario Jesse stays for another year when a lot can change

Hilariously they’re also playing hard ball on Neale and claiming he’s worth pick 5&15... I’ve heard multiple people say they have been a nightmare to deal with this trade period

LOL. Um, no?

Offers like these only really prove that Freo is a powerhouse club, led by a great, tall GM and a smart coach, and filled to the brim with talent...

...Oh, wait.

I guess they don't want him after all

Ah... someone's suggesting an interesting idea.

You'd have to think this is a possibility. Unlikely...we would all have thought once. 

Something not quite right here. But is it the offer ?

Here we go. Let the whingeing begin!

you may not give a [censored] if we get a bad deal for a good player, but I do.

best 25 when fit is worth more than 65.

The $$$ in the contract is big enough that the Board have to meet to OK it but the picks are 11 plus somewhere in the early 20s? Forrest Gump type genius at Cockburn.

It exceeded the crowd number on page 6.

Are you referring to the cricket or to GW$ home crowds?

Not much better. We've done ok with pick 53 but I don't know of any good picks at 65. Pretty much unuseable therefore no better than PSD. Clearly FD wanted to move him on. Same as Swans moving on Rohan for pick 61

#61

Stephen Powell

Michael Rischtelli

Matt Stokes

Josh Hill

Jarryd Lyons

If true, that is the most insulting, and laughable offer in the history of the AFL.

Freo, you can GAGF. Fuggin offensive [censored]

BB you keep hinting that there is a secret big cross against JH, but at the moment the only evidence of it is Freo's weak offer.   Until someone produces some more evidence, I'll just assume Freo are just waiting till next year.

No panic. Freo know we want to deal, they've made a smart low ball offer, we've rejected it. Until they even get pick 5 for Neale they can't offer it. We just have to wait it out a bit.

The good news is they offered pick 11 to us now rather than dealing it for Lobb.

This is why Mahoney is prepared to pay market value for players. It creates trust between us and other teams like GWS. Will come in handy of a Kelly or Coniglio wants out down the track.

All Peter Bell has ensured is that they get nothing and lose their prized asset to their arch rivals 12 months from now. Absolute idiots.

He's giving Brett Burton a run for his money as most inept deal broker within the AFL.

 

Just wait, they'll come back to us with like 5 minutes to go before the end of the trade period with a more realistic offer, just to stuff us around.

How funny would it be if the Eagles offer a great deal and they get him next year.

Or even better he signs on and becomes a coleman medalist and multiple premiership player.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
