Meanwhile, the sight of newly retired Clem Michael at Fremantle headquarters yesterday sparked speculation of an early comeback by the injury-plagued young ruckman.
However, Michael was there to sign off on a contract, as is required under AFL rules when a player retires.
"Basically, it means Clem is no longer paid by us," Dockers chief executive Cameron Schwab said. "But he is still on our list in case his knee comes good and he wants to come back later this year.
"If he decided to do that we'd have to write a new contract and fit him into our salary cap."
South Fremantle has offered Michael the opportunity to play in the WAFL this year.
