I don’t get it.
I love Freo even if they stuff up things.
Lyon developed Neale, who is having another good year this year. You may need to look up the discussion with Lions fans from last season, because it is virtually word for word recreated here. Never were going to pay more than 6. Blah blah. Fremantle is clear in its stance that we will only trade contracted players in a deal that makes us stronger. Quite fair and reasonable.
Wot?I think Lyon also had the same stance on Luke Ball ?
Not really, he's mentioned in public that he loves it at Freo and wants to do the right thing by them. I'm pretty confident that he'll understand if they want to play hardball.you reckon ... going to cost him a bucket load of cash and keeps him away from his partner ... the contract next year for hill might not be as big from the saints cause its one year less ... i reckon if there was a reasonable trade offered and Freo rejected it then BHill would be pretty pissedoff with Freo
Can you please explain how Ball ended up in the draft if he was still contracted.I think Lyon also had the same stance on Luke Ball ?
I wasn't aware of this. In other sports a club will say look, we can't trade you this year - stick it out and if you reward us we will get you to where you have to go next year. The AFL have a long way to go to get to that stage, but it could be seen that Hill gave Freo an extra season of great service so they'll make the trade work. Just spit balling.He wanted a trade last year!
what have freo done to deserve favorable media attention ? sacking coaches , failed seasons after seasons, players treated like rubbish, coaches who are frosty to the media, plus being the Pepsi to the WCE Coke in the WA market ... what do you expect ?? we are the same we have the media twisting anything into a negative for us .. its all part and parcel of being an unsuccessful club ... no point sooking over it ...Mate, eastern media outlets make the observation that Freo get bad media treatment in Perth. Robbo on 360 has said it on a number occasions.
What amazed me

we are not pushing into our window ... we are resetting a failed re-build ... thats not cutting to the bone and starting again but cutting away what isnt going to help us grow ...I'm not in the get-Kelly-gang. I only want him if he wants to play for us and is available for a price we are happy to pay. For me that price is pick 5 (from you) or the maximum price is pick 5 and your second rounder (steak knives), but I would probably walk away. We don't need inside mids, and having lost our coach and by the looks of things 2 wingers, we are rebuilding, so my preference is to hit the draft.
- If we were pushing into our window (as you guys seem to think you are) that would be different.
- If Hill and Langdon were staying, I'd sell the farm for Kelly (in terms of draft picks).
i disagree we have one flag and i am proud of that flag but the win in 1966 has nothing to do with todays footy .. the game is so very very differant today as it was then ... flags in the 90's honestly i dont reckon mean anything either as the game in the 90's is totally differant to today ... realistically to have a bearing on a teams success you need to go to the start of this century.. 2000 - 2019 Brissys threepeate is still relevantI am sick of this argument. I deal with it a lot from a Freo supporter at work. The premiership before 1990 count. However if I was comparing say St Kilda and Power pre 1990 I would say the Power are the more successful team.
yeah you get guys wanting to return to Perth that the WCE dont want ... yay you !And yet we keep getting trades done eh. I think your comments suggest you have a BIG small man problem.
i agreeYour VFL flag counts as a state league flag.
but we are not talking reasonable offers here ... $900k is more than reasonableWC made a reasonable offer for Kelly last year, Adelaide a reasonable offers for Gibbs.
because we are poor as f**k !!! i know its hard to grasp but do you realise in the last decade when we were playing finals every year we were still borrowing equipment from other clubs ... when your club was entering the AFL we had players doing repairs on a collapsed roof in our training venue cause we couldt afford the contractors to do it...Why aren't you like your big brothers down the road in brown and yellow and only trade in stars? Yeah why aren't you a destination club who can get deals done? And why aren't you like your other big brothers in black and white and have someone in the media who can influence things for you? And why aren't you like your blue and white big brothers down the highway and have lots of decent father and sons?
loves it at Freo but wants out .... right...Not really, he's mentioned in public that he loves it at Freo and wants to do the right thing by them. I'm pretty confident that he'll understand if they want to play hardball.
Still waiting on those examples by the way, or are you just here to troll?
i would be interested to know if his partner stayed in perth this year or had she already moved to Melbourne ...I wasn't aware of this. In other sports a club will say look, we can't trade you this year - stick it out and if you reward us we will get you to where you have to go next year. The AFL have a long way to go to get to that stage, but it could be seen that Hill gave Freo an extra season of great service so they'll make the trade work. Just spit balling.
Probably, is it geelongs 2020 round 1 or someone else’s ?Would Freo take pick 12 and a 1st rd 2020 for Hill?
Would take that. Would be silly not to, Bell would probably prefer a player but two firsts, with one guaranteed half decent would be too hard to turn downWould Freo take pick 12 and a 1st rd 2020 for Hill?
SaintsProbably, is it geelongs 2020 round 1 or someone else’s ?
Are you 100 years old? Not sure baggage gets handed down thru generations and if it does at the Saints, time to put down the bag.Give it time you’ve been in the league under 25 years. In another 75 you’ll see it our way.

Would you take an all expenses paid trip to Europe for a month?Would Freo take pick 12 and a 1st rd 2020 for Hill?
This is probably the worst deal I've seen for Saints and you're correct, will end up of Nuffies page.This will end up on nuffies
Geelong trade Kelly and 3rd rd to West Coast
West Coast trade 14, 22 and Petrucelle
Geelong trade 37 to saints for Steven
Saints trade Bruce and pick 37 to Dogs
Dogs trade pick 11 to saints
Saints trade Freo pick 11 and 1st rd 2020 for Hill
Win win for everyone....
