Freo unlock new role for Fyfe in stirring performance

In their famous victory over ladder-leaders Sydney on Saturday, Fremantle may have unlocked the latest iteration of Nat Fyfe — a run-with midfielder.

“The universe works in funny ways” – Fyfe

Nat Fyfe was at his best at the SCG on Saturday, in a role running with Sydney star Isaac Heeney.

Turned the clock back today. 228 games ago he got a Rising Star nomination for his 23 disposals while tagging a Sydney Forward/Mid. And today...

PS Only 22 now. Pretty sure he was on 23 when the game had finished.

 

[james haish]

It was a finals quality match and Fyfe starred. We’ll need him at the pointy end

We need to go as deep into finals as possible, for Fyfe

Time for Nathan to retire unfortunately

Worst post you've made
Our greatest ever player was brilliant today

He spoke very well after the game, I know his performances can sometimes now not be nearly as effective as they used to but he's still such a good influence to have around a very young team.

 

[Footskill]

Enforcer and tight in handballs to outside is I hope his role going fwd.. occasionally drifting back to help out in def and fwd as required

why would you do a thumbs down?

Because you love bumping threads unnecessarily. It's quite irritating. Attention seeking.
No need to bump this thread for this post. Wasting everyone's time opening it.

 

[anchor man]

I have to say that at times both last year and this year so far, I had my doubts the he could be a real influence and positive to the team, but, he has given us an extra lift in most games.
He has certainly given plenty to the club.
He has proven himself as a real team player Playing for the rest of the group.

 

[mattis117]

just put me on ignore and the problem is solved

I did for weeks, but it didn't solve the problem. All the necro'd threads are still there with blocked posts.

So yeah, wish it worked but it doesn't for a spammer.

Big for him to be back in the votes again this week.

I think at the end of the year people will see total coaches votes and have to reevaluate his season. The issue is that some still want him to be peak Fyfe and have not changed their grading scale.

Either way he took Heeney out of the game and had an impact for us around clearances and delivering to our forwards.

 

[clivenator26]

Plenty of whispers during the week of a retirement. It’s him and Pav as the best to do it in purple.

We didn’t get enough of him at his peak sadly due to the broken legs but in his prime he was the standout player in the comp. Not enough recognition as to how powerful he was, he was a brute.

All Australian 2014, 2015, 2019 but should’ve been included at least 1-2 more times in 2011, 2013 or 2018.

Enjoy flying helicopters, driving trucks, surfing, meditating or whatever it is. Busted his body for the club, a legend.

 

[Joao]

Man I wish he had a Brownlow quality Fyfe this year. !00% would win the flag if we did. Amazing player at his best.

Retire ????

Doesn't he have a contract for next year.

 

[Nodgey]

Yeah a mate sent me a screenshot off fb or twitter or whatever hinting at retirement at season’s end. Was surprised there was nothing on here about it. NFI how accurate it’ll be.

Good way (in theory) to make sure the boys get up next week if Sonny and/or Fyfe say they pulling up stumps.

 

[pK75]

Might mean the coach doesn’t sub him off if it’s potentially Fyfe’s last game and he’ll do anything to get one last shot at finals.

 

[BStaff17]

I think Fyfe would wait for the off-season and go on one his trips into some place away from the beaten track that he does to reflect and make that decision away from the spotlight then inform the club about it.

Then just make it all about himself this week.

Your a long time retired as well.

 

[Gimme the Fyfe]

Early next week I believe we will be getting an official retirement statement from Fyfey.

To the WA contingent - I hope you guys can all pack out Perth Stadium against the Lions next week for what I believe will be his farewell game. With the crowd at full-strength and our beloved team working wonders right now, we can witness a triumphant and glorious win next week, then bring it to the Dogs the week after.

I will be there against Port tonight willing the team on and thankfully see our champion in action one last time.

Dare to dream Flagmantle and UP THE DOCKERS!!!

 

[StingBitten]

I'll go but he has 1-2 more games after that there.

Most likely just the home prelim but I'll tolerate a home elimination or semi if I have to.

 

[Cobbler]

Are you in the inner sanctum? Where’s this coming from?

I don’t follow you, so apologies if this is bang on.

Not at all!

I think its just a reasonable assumption.

I have no inside knowledge whatsoever.

 

[Demons09]

I disagree if he ends the season well he’ll go on next year.
