Just saw him on Fox Footy so nope

Is Nathan Buckley in attendance ?

Exactly how I feel about it too ! It could bite us hard if we trade him for not much and he does look like he getting back to his best

If the clubs decides we can challenge again in the next year or two with a fresh voice then we have to go an experienced coach like Longmire, Buckley or Simpson. But if we decide to rebuild and start afresh trading multiple experienced players like Richmond did last year then we really should go for a younger highly rated assist t coach eg skipwoth , Enright , Montgomery type

Getting a late first rounder or early second rounder for Fritsch is not that appealing. It would get pushed back with academy bids and free agency compensation. Also it supposedly a weaker draft this year. So I don’t see how trading Fritsch makes us better next year. So unless we concede as a club we are rebuilding and just keen to bring it more young players or we have established goal kicking talent that we think we can attract through a trade, it doesn’t make sense too me. Even after a poor year he is still on track to kick 30 plus goals ! hard to replace those players. Will be interesting what moves we make during the post season

Jefferson and Windsor I think

Why is it that we are not identifying these types at the drafts ! low cost key forwards but are already having an impact as goal scoring threats even Treacy was pick in the 40s or 50s for Freo , may have even been a rookie pick ?

How is it that Essendon pick up a kid in the mid season draft Archer May, who arguably has already shown more than of our Key forwards this season in 2 games ! Can we not identify key forward talent. Can we not develop key forwards. Or do our kicking skills inside 50, decision making and possibly the game plan mean our key forwards are hamstrung and can’t impact like other clubs seem to ?

Absolutely fantastic Kozzy has signed long term ! So Important for the club Listened to below link from AFL media this morning. Can’t believe there take ! More interested in talking about how this is going to make it hard for Kozzy to get of Melbourne now with this deal. Than actually comending Melbourne for providing him the support and security that he is happy to call Melbourne the club and city home for the rest of his career . afl.com.auLISTEN: SF loss a Giant motivator, what Kozzy's deal coul...Join Michael Whiting and Nathan Schmook for AFL Daily

Fantastic win, really didn’t see it coming. Obviously Melksham has been really integral with his own form but as a leader of the forward line, I am curious what the panel thinks our best forward mix is with regards to the rest of the season, ie what is the balance between key forwards and small /medium forwards . Or is it just a horses for courses decision with having flexible swing men like Turner and Petty play forward or back depending on the game/game situation ?

Indicates the quality of our key forward stocks and that the coaches don’t think there is one good enough to name to start on the field ! Our forward line is a real sad state of affairs

It was pretty weak draft and seems like we just wanted to take a key forward and took the best one available. Josh Weddle would have been handy. I feel we have missed big on key position players in the draft. I know Windsor has been fantastic but I hope we don’t rue not taking Nate Caddy or Conor Sullivan in 2023

Today could be a day that really hits home that we should have drafted the two Victorian boys Hayden Young and Serong instead of two players that have wanted to go back home Pickett and Jackson in 2019 Freo mostly likely end up with all 4 which sucks really !

So depressing that we will most likely be bottom 4 and we won’t even have our natural 1st round draft pick. Least Lindsay and Langford look good. But our method is broken and our talent forward of the ball is not good enough

Not a trade target , but why we didn’t select Logan Morris in the draft a couple of years back when we are screaming out for key forwards that can mark and kick goals, I have no idea !!
