this is what happens when the CEO and a guy with the worlds worst case of little man syndrome are in charge of your list management. Freo finally had a gun key forward on the hook and they arenโ€™t willing to pay close to his value. Why even bother wasting your time.ย

Peter "Jive Turkey" Bell.ย  I stand by my previous comment.ย  Lets get creative to still bring in May.ย  I hope Hogan kicks 10 on them next year.

Freo not rating Hogan but watch them offer him a mountain of cash next year in order to lure him.

They might have already done it......

Freo giving up pick 6 for 11, 23 and 30 fromย Port looks completely pointless now. Complete amateurs.

No... to be fair, in of itself this is a good trade for Freo because they basically didn't have a lot of picks this year...ย 

The problem was them prioritising that and taking it off the table before the Hogan deal had been done.

Freo and Port could have undertaken this trade on Draft night... Live trading could have seen that take place at any point of time!

Play him down back next year.

Might not need May now.

Agree. We have seenย CHF/CHB swap positions effectively like Neitz, Carey (temporarily), Hurley, TMac.ย 

It's worth giving it a go with Jesse.

He could also play as a high half forward flanker with his speed and endurance.ย  Let TMac and Weid play the more traditional positions.

I hope this is a blessing in disguise.

Can't really get creative with nothing to play with. I can't see us bundling up players and we don't have any picks to give. May will not be a Demon in 2019.

Scenes at Freo headquarters.

The President of the Fremantle Football Club: so how did the trade week go, Peter?

Peter Bell: great! We showed them east coast guys a thing or two.

PoFFC: and how did we go with the Hogan trade?

Peter Bell: Ha! Ha! We didnโ€™t get him.

PoFFC: Didnโ€™t get him? I thought we were after him?

PB: Oh we were, believe me!

PoFFC: So what happened?

PB: They come up against old โ€œNailsโ€ Bell!

PoFFC: I donโ€™t understand. Didnโ€™t they ask a fair price?

PB: Oh yes! Very fair. But they come up against a hardarse balls-out negotiator!

PoFFC: Hang on. You mean we could have got him?

PB: Yep!

PoFFC: But we didnโ€™t get him?

PB: Nup!

PoFFC: How close were we?

PB: Close as, mate! All I had to do was stick out me hand and shake!

PoFFC: So let me get this clear. We wanted him.

PB: Hell yes!

PoFFC: They asked a fair price.

PB: Yep!

PoFFC: But we refused and now we donโ€™t have him.

PB: Yep! A few of those east coast boys will be licking their wounds tonight!

Hope the club comes out very quickly with a statement to the effect - "our first preference was always to keep Jesse, he's a quality young man but he's been through so much in his life that if wanted to go back to be closer to family it was something we fully understood. That's why we entertained this in the first place, unfortunately while Freo through buckets of money at him they were unreasonable to deal with and we're keeping him and will be working on a long term deal".ย 


If we didn't have TMac & Weed what would we offer for Jesse? I would be very disappointed if we didn't offer 2 first rounders. Which we did in the first place.ย 

As for extended contract offer to Jesse, front load it to $2m for 2020 on a $4m 4ย year deal minimum.

Lets now hope Jesse wakes up to himself and puts pen to paper with us.ย  Any inflated ego from being the subject of much discussion has burst big time. Time to settle down and play football with the team that has looked after you through your darkest hours young fella.

Take your footy and go home, thereโ€™s always tomorrow, but nobody will want to play.

ย 


Well he aint gonna go to Freo after them stuffing him around like this.

ย 

I hope he resigns for another years and kicks 50+ next year.

what are they saying?

Barrett called Rosich and Bell novices and out of their depth. Operating in positions they are not familiar with and wasting everyones time (AFL community).

Bit of dotting and crossing to be done now if clean table is the go........

Hilarious on trade radio listening to Dockers fans calling in talking up Cox, Taberner and Lobb as a legit forward line with any hope of success.ย 

Delusional!

Honestly shocked at what Bell and Rosich have done here, even for a couple of amateurs.ย Had a 500+ goal career CHF/FF staring at them in the face and theyโ€™ve shat themselves at even paying a halfway decent price for him.ย 

Unbelievable. Gross negligence in running a footy club.

a sample of the responses on Dockerland:

"Great call Belly!

You have in one fell swoop killed off Melbourneโ€™s hopes of getting May from GC and called them out for asking overs for an injury-prone (and currently injured) WA player.

If Melbourne are fair dinkum in wanting May watch for their back-sliding and offers of โ€˜concilliationโ€™ over the weekend to get this trade back on the rails.

Now just sew up the Lobb and Langdon deals with the second and third rounders we got as part of the pick 6 swap. "

Mahoney has stated earlier today that if we don't get currency for Hogan we can't trade for May.ย

I wouldn't be surprised if this was part of Freo's motivation. Cutting their nose to spite their face in order to "teach us a lesson".

  • 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 forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” 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 Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasnโ€™t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
