Club Focus Fremantle 2024

Data from footywire. To check the draft order see the thread here.

Footywire says: "While we make every effort to keep up to date with player contracts, it is likely that our data may at times be out of date, incomplete or inaccurate. If you find any player contracts that need updating, please let us know using our brand new contract submission form."

Maybe Freo could ask Collingwood for Schultz back …?

Probably get a good deal.

Would love Schultz back.

We missed him badly this year. Don't have a defensive forward who can kick goals.

 

[Lach72]

probably a little optimistic but 30-40 range would be more his range imo
3 years in the system and cant make the team still similar position to our Tyler Sonsie
pick he was drafted at really doesnt matter anymore same goes for Hobbs, Tsatsas Sinn Macrae etc

To be fair Sonsie has been competing with the rotting corpse of Dustin Martin, Hopper and Taranto for midfield minutes, not Serong , Brayshaw and Young.

 

[Lach72]

No, no, no, no, no. Erasmus will be a gun.

Nah.
I’d trade him for a pick in the twenties.

Agree on possibilities on all of the above, except O’Driscoll.

He’s a keeper

 

[Jeremias]

Sorry my bad, meant Baker. Bolton I would love to have. 'd like Kosi and Bolton. I don't want Baker, I don't believe Baker is best 22. Bolton 100% is. I think 9 and 2nd rounder gets it done, 9 and 17 if Richmond pays a large percentage of salary. I do really rate Erasmus, he will get a chance at some point and will cement his spot.

Baker is definitely best 22 at Fremantle.

Will be interesting to see whether we are going to get a chance to put that discussion to bed.

Rotting Corpse you say ?

Fyfe & Walters should be Rotted Corpses if thats the case

Apparently they only made a sizeable offer incase they have injuries

 

[kingross29]

Who's spot does Baker take if Freo are fully fit? NOD is good but constantly injured. Baker is very overrated, I hope he goes to WC.

Banfield, Fyfe, Johnson, and O’Meara would all be candidates to lose their spot I think.

 

[DragoDelph]

Wagner if he plays Half back too

 

[gungho]

Probably quite a few to be honest:

He would definitely be in before Aish, O Meara, Banfield, Worner, Noddy, Walters, Johnson and Emmett, and potentially be in before Fyfe, Switta, Wagner and Freddy.

Your team finished 9th and choked in multiple games this year when they were looking like a top 4 team
Your list manager seems to think he replaces a few in that team.

Emmett, Walters, Banfield, Aish and O’meara played over 100 games between them and you don’t think Baker could fit in?

Que?

Thats even before the Nate and Switta
The main thing Baker gives onfield that stats dont show is his toughness and uncompromising style he plays.
I remember how much the freo supporters loved Ballantyne - He is similar to us and we would rather keep him than lose him and would be perfect for our young team as of next year.

 

[Heart Of Purple]

Ryan, Pearce, Walker
Clark, Cox, Chapman
Brayshaw, Serong, O'Driscoll
Frederick, Treacy, Bolton
Pickett, Amiss, Jackson

Darcy, Warner, Young

Baker, Johnson, Sturt, Sharp, Switkowski

Wowser ...

13/18 would have to be all Australian candidates.
Walker, Cox, Chapman, Odriscoll, Freddy the ones missing out ... all of whom have huge upside!

Hey now, Cox has made the AA squad.

Aish is a better player than Baker, switta is yards better. You wouldn't be giving us a first rounder for Aish. Baker is worth a second rounder at best. He would be the 22nd, 23rd player picked and probably ends up playing WAFL by end of 2026.

Lol Does Aish / Switta have 3 clubs with $800k+ offers sitting on the table for 3 months waiting for him to decide which suits him ?
Aish is delist at any other team and Switta lol
Take off the purple glasses Baker has been approached to be an upgrade on the players you mentioned

Well, no more complaining from Fremantle fans about the father-son rule. You got one in Jaren Carr.

I can't believe he didn't get bid on earlier. I had him in the top 5 on my board.

Ohh I get it. You only care about father-son picks if they're first round prospects. Will your tune change if pick 63 Jaren Carr develops into a player like pick 57 Josh Daicos?

 

[RonnieRaven]

We still have only 1 that’s played an AFL game in 30 yrs.
Will happily trade our father sons for your academy rules

 

[Orange crush]

Kind of cute suns fan thinking they are relevant now

I'm just happy everyone's having a good time.

Brett Peake played 75 games for Freo. I'm pretty sure we're yet to have a single academy pick reach that many games in our colours. It'd be great if our academy really was the advantage that some people claim it is, but that hasn't happened yet.

Do you rate Jaren Carr? I know he's a late pick, but do you think he's a chance to make his AFL debut next year?

I'm just happy everyone's having a good time.

Fair response lol.
