Apologies for any inconvenience. We will try to find a replacement.
Need Sturt signed i'm not liking the wait.
if we don't delist banfield we need to sign someone who gets him out of the 23. Too much of a cap between his best and his worst
JOM hasn’t had the best couple of weeks but just a few weeks ago had 20 possessions and 2 goals (west coast game) and 21 possessions against Melbourne.Cannot believe Brodie is averaging 35+ and Erasmus too for Peel, yet the coaches highly value JOM’s leadership.
This is why we’re a joke with culture.
We’re scared to drop any leaders. Scared to say nah you’re not good enough at 30, it’s time to retire.
Instead we push out De Boer at 26, yet JOM is sticking around.
Fremantle will never be serious with the contracts given out.
2 more years of it.
If Sturt and Brodie leaves, the whole department is a joke. Thought the club have changed, moved on from sentimentality but nope, this season it’s obvious.

Do you feel JOM has a net positive over say Erasmus, Brodie or NOD?JOM hasn’t had the best couple of weeks but just a few weeks ago had 20 possessions and 2 goals (west coast game) and 21 possessions against Melbourne.
He has been nowhere near as bad as you and others have made out.
He had an interrupted pre-season and has filled a number of different roles. His error against Geelong where he played on was a howler but I don’t have a big problem with his recruitment which was essentially a mid to late second round pick and adding some experience to a very young side.
He has essentially pushed Will Brodie out of the side. JOM being added will not be the reason we lose Sturt or Banfield.
For what it’s worth I hope Sturt stays and Banfield is the one who is shaken out of the tree. It will probably be the other way around.
Imagine we give Sturt for nothing to Hawthorn whilst paying JOM’s contract.
Why have you lot convinced yourself it's Hawks? They're probably the team that least needs him.
Well it was 30 years ago.They can keep rolling their picks over. Top end talent leaving have given them more high end draft picks but player turnover has them never with a fully settled team. It's more of a draft snowball affect.
Their early on mini draft concessions has allowed this to happen.
Freo started off with almost nothing. Even when GWS are playing well still play in an empty small stadium
That what makes me worried now.Well it was 30 years ago.
We have had plenty of time to get our shit together.
We didn't handle the post 2012-2015 period well.
We can whinge about being set up to fail from the get go unlike GWS.
But that doesn't excuse the last 9 seasons for 1 finals appearance.
We have had enough resources for 20 years to be doing better and expecting more sustainable success even without the premierships.
We did offer Hamling two years on minimum money. He then got offended that we offered him minimum money and pissed off to Sydney. Where he's so much more valued, clearly.Seriously need a one on one defender as well.
Hawthorn are proactive in going after Barass.
Just couldn’t trust Pearce to not break down or have some random freak injury.
Cox after a serious hamstring suddenly looks slow.
Draper and Davies aren’t the best height.
Still can’t believe didn’t offer Hamling two years on minimum money.
Offered 1 year.We did offer Hamling two years on minimum money. He then got offended that we offered him minimum money and pissed off to Sydney. Where he's so much more valued, clearly.
No. We offered him 2 after Sydney did. He was too stubborn to even consider our revised offer. His words.Offered 1 year.
Sydney offered 2. Obviously you’d take that
No. We offered him 2 after Sydney did. He was too stubborn to even consider our revised offer. His words.
If Sturt is traded and Banfield is given a new contract that would be just outrageous.JOM hasn’t had the best couple of weeks but just a few weeks ago had 20 possessions and 2 goals (west coast game) and 21 possessions against Melbourne.

Watch this spaceIf Sturt is traded and Banfield is given a new contract that would be just outrageous.
Yeah and if Clark, Young and Serong were injured people there would be just as many apologists on here saying they were our three most important players out.But it’s not just “3 very important guys”. It’s the 3 most structurally important players across the ground.
It’s not about needing to be injury free. It’s about not having those 3 specific players injured at the same time.
Any one of them out, sure we can generally cover for, and compensate around the ground- but all three at the same time is a critical hit to our entire structure and we (or any team) are always going to be up against it.
Injuries happen yes, but this is not something that happens to every team.
He has been consistent. We lose Sturt with Schulz last year.I am happy for Sam that he is pretty much put to bed the idea he is not an AFL quality player. I would rather we kept him but I somehow think this is really about as good as he is going to be get and any further gains are going to be incremental and experience based. It's not wrist slashing time if he leaves.

Agree to disagree. Don’t think it’s the same thing.Yeah and if Clark, Young and Serong were injured people there would be just as many apologists on here saying they were our three most important players out.
It's just amother coping strategy to avoid confronting the truth that we were the masters of our own destiny and shat the bed again
He’s a lazy highlight package. NopeWhy would Freo be uninterested in Liam Ryan?
Take Banfield out of our side and insert Ryan we win against GWS and who knows how many others.
Probs wouldn't have to pay an arm and a leg for him either.
I agree - my comment wasn’t what I wanted but what I expect could happen.If Sturt is traded and Banfield is given a new contract that would be just outrageous.
He's got class and X factor, something we sadly lack. I wouldn't be judging him on whats going on this WCE shitshow currently.He’s a lazy highlight package. Nope
