Hopefully another player that Fremantle has low-balled and they’ve decided to leave.  We were very keen but maybe his price has risen too high.

 

 

This, unfortunately he has come on this year. Needed to get him for nothing and then have him improve, now they will want a more than we might be prepared to give.

If we can all agree that he his back half / wing, how does he fit into the team? Who does he replace?

I do agree he has speed and good skill, I have yet to see him carve up teams like B.Hill, Milera (Saints and Adelaide), Coleman/Mckenna (Lions) with his kicking skills and ball movement ability though. 

Happy to add him to the team as a prospect, but not with a round 1 pick as Freo will undoubtedly want. Maybe our late 2nd rounder and a future 3rd for good measure.

Don't know much about this guy but do remember he was rated as the best small forward in Kozzie's draft.  I remember a friend who goes for Freo saying last year he's got skills but wishes he had some of Kozzie's aggression as he hasn't put it together much at AFL level.  

Makes me think of where Bedford was up to last year - he'd played a number of games and showed a lot of upside.  To me he wasn't able to settle and ended up not making the most of his disposals in most games (which is not uncommon for young players finding their feet).  But look where he is now!

Is Henry one pre-season away from taking a big step?

Probably would've been interested this time last year but we grabbed lachie hunter for that wing spot and also have blake howes in waiting who needs to get a run at it next year. Have never seen Liam Henry play a good game as a small forward so no wonder we lost interest

Was in reference to the Hawks racism accusations, Amon was recruited before that came out

The allegations were made as part of an external review commissioned by the club, and were made public by the ABC on 20 September 2022. An AFL investigation was triggered, and ran until May 2023.

30 Sept 2022  Hawthorn have signed Port Adelaide wingman Karl Amon to a four-year deal after the AFL free agency period opened on Friday.

A touch of 'double standards here.  Why would the Dockers be fuming?  I don't recall any angst when LJ sought a trade from us.

Reminds me of the recent Ashes series...maybe this is all part of an application for British English citizenship?

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
