Get a room you two.

You left off a fullstop. And "WTF" should be capitalised IMO.

 

[truman]

Absolutely no doubt he is a champion player, but he's actually not humble despite the media touting his Brownlow speech as such...he knew he was going to win it and probably rehearsed the speech umpteen times.

His F7 brand...'nuff said on that.

Reportedly has a bad attitude when they lose.

Players didn't want him to be the captain for a reason.

Having said all that, I wish we had a midfielder of his ilk in our team.

Would hate to have a player who hates to lose in any off the teams I support :/.

On a serious note I reckon in a professional sporting environment being a bad loser would be rather common

Well **** off then

That's more like it, open hostility

Did someone say petty Pickering?

Sounding more and more like Fyfe will leave once hrs a free agent. As much as he sounds like fig jam I'd give him an open cheque book

Freo would be campaigners at the trade table though

Restricted Free Agent next year

We can at least drive up the asking price for them to match the contract

Exactly. And if they do happen to land a hogan type player they won't be able to match our offer.

Does his contract end this off-season or 2017/18?

He's contracted for next year

There's a massive difference between being a bad loser and being one who hates losing. I dare say not many people enjoy losing.

As a leader though you cannot be unapproachable after a loss...being able to direct a learning experience out of a loss is more important than giving in to the dented pride and avoiding discussion altogether.

Fyfe was saying he has had 14 surgeries now , .......both shoulders , Broken leg twice , groin , back .

Fyfe also saying , staying at Fremantle depends on there rebuild and how quickly they can get back into contention .

 

[Godfather32]

At least we'd get a look at his recovery next year to see how he goes.
Wonder if we'll have to decide between Coniglio and Fyfe, Fyfe obviously the superior player all things being equal but depending on how his injuries go and how much he'd cost us Coniglio might be the better option.

Well, you know, he's seen first-hand where misguided loyalty to the purples gets you. Pav's 350 games of mostly miserable mediocrity punctuated by a few seasons of contention where they failed in the end.

Is Coniglio a FA? Could we afford both? With Priddis not far of retirement, Lecca, Butler and a few others could retire which could free up coin. Fyfe we don't have to trade for, if we do for Coniglio what would he cost? Perhaps our first two or a MacKenzie and a first. I think the Coniglio ship has Passed but

Yep. Fyfe may never be quite the same again.

Not a FA but is out of contract at the same time. If we did go for Fyfe we might get him outright but free agents do often get traded (Dangerfield to Geelong for example), plus if we're going to fit him in to our salary cap we may have to shed some players. Probably on the money for Coniglio, 2 x 1sts, maybe pushing it for a first and Mackenzie at the end of 2017 given his age.

GWS blokes seem to think Coniglio is Captaincy material. Might be too busy winning bulk premierships at GWS to be any chance of coming back to WA...

He can be our captain if he wants

He's already played as acting captain in a game or two IIRC.

We missed our chance. He's absolutely 100% what we need.
