langford? 7 games in and 3 bog's already he is that guy

i would like to see jackson, treacy and a pick maybe for jvr, kosi and mcvee/woey that then frees up a spot down back for sestan and or adams also that only leaves us needing a small forward everywhere else on the ground is solid

There’s no world where Fremantle would give up Jackson and Treacy, let alone with a pick, for the players you listed. But I’d also say it would be insane to give up McVee.

McVee is one of our best users of the ball; why would we give up one of only players with the ability to link and run?

Woewodin wouldn’t even cut it as steak knives in a deal.

    Don’t get why he has to move across the country to avoid family. I can do it from two suburbs away.

    Medias heads would explode if we got Dogga but didn't lose Kozi. Please this happen.

    Offering players that Freo don't want or need isn't going to get it done.

    My guess is that if this happens it will be simple..... Koz for Dogga.

    What about JVR and Koz for Jackson and picks?

    The real question is, was Windsor and Jeffo for LJ fair or is there still left over animosity in stealing LJ from us for peanuts. Remember, he was pick 3 and I was livid in what we got for him, given what Freo coughed up for Bolton.

    Windsor is a gun but better picks should have gotten us closer to securing H.Reid.

    Not those types of off field issues.

    Family drama that can be resolved by, you guessed it, getting the hell away from said family.

    Im sure it will continue to be a distraction wherever he is to be honest.

    There’s no way we get him without giving up Kozzy, and if Kozzy doesn’t want to leave then Freo have no incentive to trade him to us.

    I’d much rather keep Kozzy

    Jackson left us because of off-field issues.

    Now he wants to leave Fremantle because of off-field issues.

    Haven't we had enough of those recently?

    I think Freo had two first round picks in that draft and traded the highest one out before entering negotiations with us to bring Jackson home. Screw them.

    As a supporter I agree with you, 100%. But as an entity and at an organisational level, we seem to constantly drive deals where we walk away ‘happy’ (i.e., get the target at what we see is reasonable or ‘market’ cost). I wouldn’t expect us to go down the Bell/Dodoro route; it’s just not who we are culturally (personally, I find this to be better and we largely get our deals done with a a minimum of fuss).

    As I said though, I absolutely agree Freo walked out the winner on the Jackson deal. That was unders.

    I mean, if he’s coming back through Casey, he’s still on our list. Seems a little redundant.

    Mcvee, JVR & F1 for Jackson

    Free Agent- worpel & Allen

    Instantly back into flag contention with another pre season under the belt of our high end youth core.

    The club will continue to prioritise keeping Kosi above all else. And so they should.

    Kosi should not come into the conversation whatsoever, if we feel there is even a small chance he will be happy to stay put. He is far too valuable to just offer up for a player who clearly has a strong desire to not only move back to Victoria, but who is pretty set on the idea of playing for us. That doesn't happen often, and it gives us more leverage than it does Freo.

    Also wonder how Kosi will feel, knowing that if he goes to Freo, he all but makes his cousin Dudley a fringe player. Hard to see how Freo plays all 3 of Dudley, Kosi and Bolton, plus Reid and Walters. It just doesn't work.

    Excellent post and agree 💯

    If it happens it’ll be a straight swap

    Why? Because the media wants it to be that way? If it happens it will be the player wanting to be traded for personal reasons with a massive contract.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
