I'd appreciate it if you posted this for a player youre interested in. Just for consistency. ?

Is Ben the runt of the litter? Never even heard of him until today.

Barrett suggesting disgruntlement towards the club from Hurley and Hooker too. You have to wonder if one of them could be squeezed out and involved in a McDonald trade. Hurley would be a decent 2nd tall in defense to plug in for a couple of years, and the club was vocal about chasing him in the past. Either way, let's get Saad.

Kind of cringeworthy and a 'high maintenance' red flag for opposition, that they've requested at the same time. (if true)

I think he meant trading in Hooker from Essendon.

Those 3 ins would add up to the impact of a so called big fish. That's why I don't see all 3 happening. Salad and another B grader at most. Smith, Gunston and Briest all look too happy to change things radically. Mihocek probably as well.

Ladder position suggests the doco should've been "Halfway to Heaven"

Looking forward to the next doco 2021: Time to pull the Finger Out

I suppose even a close neutral game without anything riding on it during the year still gets the heart racing. I'm just checking scores, no way am I putting heart through another roller coaster like 2017.

There can't possibly be anyone still left on the forum that has built up their hopes and will be genuinely crushed if Freo lose this? Masochistic if you ask me. Edit: I'm only checking scores, so maybe that's why I feel detached.

We'd need to appoint Ross Lyon first...

Take a 2 goal & 6 mark a game player out of our forward line and see how we go. Oh wait, we don't have one. Your take is 3 years old, Taberner was very ordinary, but he's improved considerably these past two seasons

B.O.nt

Taberner has kicked 30 this year. Recruiting him would've helped our chances more. Clueless take.

Collingwood beating Port and Lynden Dunn carrying on will be the final nail after the Dogs get up today

I recall covid suspensions being between 2 and 10 games, not 100. ...And the club not having a 1 strike policy.

I wonder if Lockhart's omission and a potential delisting is tied up with discussions we might have been having with Saad over the past month or 3 (As well as relating to list size downgrading) Not much point playing a small defender if he wont be getting a game next year and beyond.

Hope we don't plan on wasting another trade week pursuing him. Especially if the Pies only signed him from Free Agrncy with a plan to trade him for picks a year later.

Hi Gus!

We could use a Baker's dozen.

Re Lockhart You have to wonder if the smiling after errors and turnovers turned Goodwin off? Probably reading into it too.much. Perhaps just boils down to the repetition of some costly decision making. Hope he is playing next year. Has great potential.

Majak played his best in defence and hasn't been played there since returning. If we have not targeted a KPD 2nd tall, then he'd be a last resort on a 1 year contract. Lock down or CHB. A majak at his best frees May and Lever to dominate elsewhere (As does OMac when playing at his best) Speaking of, Do we keep Tom Mac and OMac in 2021? If not, then he could at least be a stop-gap player that could switch into either of their roles when needed. Does Petty get healthier? Majak can be a 2nd tall if not or a backup if so. I highly doubt we'd go after him, and fully expect OMac to be backed in given the sunk cost fallacy we have with the years put in. But if delisted, then we need to start looking for another tall down back.

We've improved our ladder position by anywhere between 15 and a minimum of 6 places and Max has been one of our best players all year, all in just his first year of the captaincy. Great irony in your comment given we just beat a team that has dropped their first year captain. That is what adding nothing looks like.

Unbelievable that he's lasted 3 years though, luckily signed on back then or he would've been gone last year

Is that the 57km long Swiss alp gotthard tunnell?
