Ok so the premise of this thread is to imagine we had exclusive rights to players from the 2 Fremantle WAFL sides and make a team out of it.

So list any players and their likely position (back, midfield, ruck, forward) that qualify i.e they are still playing. I'm going to start but I'm sure I'll forget a heap (some on purpose to get everyone involved) or get some wrong so feel free to add to it (Dockers supporters or not)

Backs
R. Hayden (SF)
G. Polak (EF)
S. Dodd (EF)
L. McPharlin (EF)
P. Ryder (EF)

Midfielders
S. Black (EF)
J. Carr (EF)
D. Kerr (EF)
P. Bell (SF)
P. Haselby (EF)
D. Cassisi
B. Cousins (EF)- on the assumption that he was clean playing for freo
B. Peake (EF)

Rucks
A. Sandilands (EF)
D. Gilmore (SF)

Forwards
J. Farmer (SF)
M. Williams (SF)
A. McGrath (SF)
M. Clarke (EF)

Forwards are very light on but the mids and rucks would rip any team to shreds. I propose that at the end of this we compile a team and challenge anyone else to choose 2 teams from the WAFL, SANFL or VFL and make a better team.

Grover is subiaco and i think cox is east perth
 
Glass?

When you add blokes like Haselby, Cassisi, Swallow, and potential guns Foster, and Masten, Palmer it's no wonder that Easts have been struggling lately.

They produce too many top level midfielders for their own good. :mad:

I know he's not playing anymore but can we put Jakovich in there somewhere?...pleeeeaaaaase??? maybe as a coach?

He can be head of opposition strategy and our spy network (may give away more than he gets), Sumich can be Head of Media Relations and Woosha can be head of Player Development (we know he'll keep em on the straight and narrow)

And the moral of this story kids is.....

That if you want an elite midfielder look no further than East Freo.

And f*ck that hurts to say as a South Freo boy

Cool! :thumbsu:

If we could pick 3 players in our current squad, not originally from Freo, to join this group, who would you pick, and who would you cut from the 22/25/44?

(You're much better at this than I am - I'm just good at asking the questions... ;)).

Not sure about that, I'm sure your team would be very, very good.

The three players to add would be:

Pav- Obviously because he's Pav and the team is lacking a proven power forward. I'd put in at FF instead of CHB in this team because it's lacking a focal point in attack.

Grover- To allow McPharlin to move to CHB and get Polak out of the team.

Warnock- It's very tempting to put Tarrant in to give the forward line some real strength, but I think the squad looks more balanced with three genuine tall rucking options.

The updated senior list/team when shuffled around would then look something like this...

That looks a lot more balanced. Would give anyone a run for their money IMO.

And just for the record - they were the exact 3 I had in mind also. ;) :thumbsu:



Great thread rubber pants!
