Toast Welcome to Freo, James Aish!

He was 1.16 before today. But actually that is not taking the whole 2018 into account. Was 4.0 after his first 4 games in 2018. But not that good, but a little better then suggested. And only his second goal in Freo colours. So a thing he should keep up.
He’s never been a offensive player though.
Always doing the defensive work behind play for the team. Today was like he was given more freedom to play offensively. What a jet he is, and still to improve.
Will play his 50th game for Fremantle v Hawthorn next week. You would think he has played more games for Collingwood, but after he plays 51 for Fremantle- will be the most games he has played at one club. Weird, hasn’t feel like he’s been at the club for that long
Played 30 odd at Brisbane before that too.
Aish is SA footy royalty & won 2 SANFL premierships at 16 & 17. Faultless pedigree.
I believe for whatever reason he never quite found his feet properly at the top level till now.
At 26 he could be a serious talent for the next 5 years. He believes in what he’s doing & where he’s playing now.
Another JL project that is paying off in spades.

Don’t disagree but Aish is from SA. Adelaide or PA might throw some coin at him.
The Longmuir connection shouldn't be understated. All figures being equal you'd think he'd prefer to stay with what he has going on here.
He has shown he isn’t persistence on going back to SA. He wouldn’t have agreed to go to Collingwood or Fremantle.
He’s definitely look like he’s enjoying his football and buying in. 100+ gamer for Fremantle easily

Can't see why James would want to leave whilst being on the cusp of greatness at this club? What is it the likes of Serong and Young have on their lockers the first Fremantle players to win a flag will be immortal?!

Maybe he doesn't want to go back to SA. When he left Brisbane he wanted to go to Melbourne and not back to Adelaide.

The guy's lived and played football in three cities so far, none of them his home town. I don't think there's a huge go home factor.
Heck yeah! A future Father/Son selection would be nice

Not sure if it was celebrated v Hawthorn, James Aish played his 50th for Fremantle. Incredible given this is only his third season for Fremantle.
When he lines up against Carlton, he would had played the most games for one club at 51. Managed 50 for Collingwood and 32 for Brisbane

I heard he left Collingwood because they were calling him James Haish.
Not the worst nickname Collingwood players have given their peers
