I wonder how much our contract offer to him has come down over the last 6 months or so. I would have gladly paid him $6m for 5 years then, not sure he's worth that now.

His own fault really. If you're going to delay contract talks then you're taking the risk that you hold your form.

It's only fair he drops his asking price now. After all, he'd certainly be doing the opposite if he was dominating like it's 2015.
 
There would be fewer teams interested in his services at the moment. Second half of the year is going to be massive for him.

If his form doesn't improve by the end of the year and a Vic club offers him big money, we should seriously consider letting him go. If we can get two first round draft picks, it's pretty tempting.

You are getting greedy two first round pick. He is no longer a Ferrari better send him to peel to get some form .

Crazy talk from everyone here.
Fyfe was immense during the first month of the season. Was easily in the best players in all of the first 5 matches, particularly huge in lifting the team to its first win against WB, but equally in the big losses to Geelong and Port.

He needs a break, and to be honest an extra week off before the bye isn't a bad idea, but in terms of his effort and application, his footy smarts, and his leadership, he remains unrivalled in the team, and is still a massive contributor. 7 tackles, 5 clearances, 14 contested possessions today in-and-under. A terrific goal on the run and some nice link-up play on the outside.

The club has had enough trade stuff-ups over the years - are we seriously thinking of letting a Brownlow Medallist who has consistently been in the top 5 players each week go?

Nah he'll bounce back. It just might take an extra preseason than I thought it would.
 
Well that's up there for the worst post of 2017
Too early to call , there is some future post you had not see from me yet . Should be down there instead of up there. Asking two first round pick from other club is no different from asking fyfe to play for peel .

Clearly your brain is better that this
two first round pick , plus paying fyfe more than 1 million a season on current form ?

But pay isn't just on 'current form'. Previous form, leadership credentials, future prospect, how important they are to the team etc all matter too. And Fyfe delivers all of those.

Ask the person who ask for two first round pick to put his post in the main board now and make it bold and see the reaction from other club bf opinion .Kelly and Martin value is way higher than fyfe now ( if I were fyfe I will stayed at freo for what the club offer)

Did make me chuckle, cheers for that

Some teams would back there medical staff in to get the best of Fyfe. If he were to leave, even on current form he'd still get at least 1 mil.

I think that would be reasonable value for him - or at least shows we don't believe he is worth only one first-round pick!

Is not what freo believe , but what other club believe , i don't think another club will do a O'Meara if fyfe form dont pick up . Fyfe need a rest to refresh .
 
Bit immature I would of thought. Saints fans have as much AFL knowledge as the random Indian telephone marketer that calls my home phone.
Then wait for your two first round pick .
 
That is gold.

Got it in him to play a blinder sometimes, does Meima
In that case you are in a win win situation . Keeping fyfe at freo is the priority not getting the BiG If two first round pick .

Meima - in mandarin mean isnt it beauty , so _Wildcard_ you got your wish Fyfe will play some blinder soon.

Then sayonara Fyfe , two first round pick here they come . ( Still prefer destination not st kilda but Barlow current club )

Course it matters, but he's currently playing like a 600k a year midfielder. Good but not elite. The reason he'll end up with more is all of the things you mentioned. But to command well north of $1m a year you need to be elite all of the time.

Is he commanding well north of $1m a year?
I agree with you, but injury needs to also be considered. A 4 week stretch of form doesn't prove anything.

Reportedly asking for 1.5 to consider a move east.
If true, there is 0% chance of him leaving on exposed form.
