I feel sick

 

[Paracleet]

Sorry, but if it is for family reasons, then why choose Collingwood specifically and not any Melbourne based team?

Are his family Collingwood supporters and that is THE REASON?

People persist in saying things like this. It's not how it works. Teams are polled by the agents, they select the best offer from the clubs that are interested. Are you saying he should leave himself open to the best draft pick offer coming from club only prepared to give him a 1 year contact at $80,000 per year when the best offer could be 5 times that amount?

 

[holybishop]

Is it

FAMILY REASONS!

or

family reasons?

I'm seeing "serious family issues" on twitter but haven't seen the exact reason

 

[Ge3ks]

Tonga Bob, quick, make this man a sandwich.

Fair point, I suppose the other side is Pies are right in contention and do you pass up the chance to improve your list while you are right in the middle of a flag window (their list is actually pretty old) to get a player cheaper?

Yeah fair. If we've genuinely been blindsided, with a player we've got under contract, and we've had minimal opportunity to plan around this (we made a relatively significant trade already), they've probably played their hand to some degree that they're prepared to stump up.

Bit to play out here I guess.

 

[Midnite65]

Whaaaaat!

Hogan said two weeks ago he was miserable at Freo.

We are obviously low balling Shultz and he's unhappy.

Why can't we keep players happy?

This club is cooked. I give up

Hogan has been miserable most of his footy career. Its only once Mumme put him in his granny flat and no one recognised him in public that he started to get a bit happier.

 

[RonnieRaven]

He was 67% less dick heady in 2023.

That because he missed games and was only seen 67% of the time

 

[muzzington]

I'm just going to be sad at the moment, not fair of me to jump to conclusions. Think Lachie deserves that.

 

[nurries]

look if that is the case, it’s not ideal but at least don’t pick a club to allow us to get the best ROI for him.

 

[MadMundy]

It could all be a ploy and we re-sign him in a few days, but that's just me being hopeful.

 

[David Bubb]

Wonder if Darcy is having second thoughts about re-signing now...

Yep. The best pick sounds good to me.

 

[One_Wing]

Given he is a free agent next year, could be better to trade him this year as opposed to waiting on whatever his free agent compensation is.

 

[MadMundy]

He has no reason to.

 

[freodog]

If Fremantle trade three first round picks for Logan McDonald just after the weekend, what's the mood?

That's Freo F1, Port F1, Pies 1st.

It doesn't put us in a better position. We are not going to play McDonald & Treacy in the same team. McDonald you would assume would have greater upside although the difference is negligible at the moment.

We would still need to replace Schultz's output.

I wanted 2024 to see how both Treacy & McDonald develop. Maybe we don't need McDonald?

No, but you don't drop a bombshell on the club on day 1 and say you want to go to 1 club only. Even telling us 2 weeks ago so we get a chance to discuss with potential clubs is far more palatable.

 

[The Feeder Club]

Yeah, it's a joke. we're not the only ones to move players on/lose players.

Yep nothing to see here, just the swings and roundabouts of a well run club

Treacy as the ruck relief makes it work.

 

[Bulldogs85]

Feel Flat for you guys if their ever was a player I thought was a Fremantle man through and through it was Schultz

 

[Ge3ks]

Treacy as the ruck relief makes it work.

I'm still convinced Treacy is a small forward in a big package. Ballas on 'Roids.

 

[BringBackTheAnchor]

Honestly * Liam Henry, let the campaigner walk to the PSD if we have too. But Lachie Schultz hurts.

 

[Paracleet]

Yep. The best pick sounds good to me.

Well that's never going to happen. The whole draft and trade system is unlawful anyway, any reform to trading that disadvantaged players that much would see implicite deal between the players and the AFL not test the system blown up in court in no time.

 

[freocuz]

Perhaps he did and it’s only just now hit the media??

He was 67% less dick heady in 2023.

Is that because he played 67% less games though?
