Certified Legendary Thread Q: Why did Freeman Leave St Kilda? (A: He was delisted)

[Scodog10]

Who cares, he’s a potato anyway.

Tomorrow’s headline “guy who isn’t up to AFL misses out on list spot to guy who deserves a chance!”? I’m curious who is Greenwood managed by?

 

[Mick F]

Well he gave it a decent crack,
Where to now for Nathan?
My guess would be the QAFL up here on the Gold Coast perhaps.

Southport Sharks or Labrador Tigers.

I would have thought back to frankston? Given he also still works for connor sports.

Actually I think it would have been good to see him on a list just to see whether he can play at the highest level.

I wonder if he had actually stayed at Collingwood whether he would have had more opportunities when injury free

Unlikely. St Kilda were still completely crap when they delisted him in 2018, while the pies had just narrowly missed a premiership. He wouldn’t have ever even gotten a debit with us, let alone been given more opportunity.

That draft probably cost us a premiership and maybe 2

Maybe. We did manage to get Langdon out of it who was massive in 2018. But yeah, it really hurt that neither of Berg or Freeman were hits. 2 top 10 pick fails in one draft is brutal.

Leaving Frankston Now!

 

[Markfs]

His kicking was at 59% according to that article. I'd assume when handballs are included his disposal efficiency would be higher than that. Not sure where 59% kicking efficiency would sit for a mid - I'm not sure it would be particularly low. It's the defenders who have the high efficiency ratings - Chris Mayne was the highest in the league, so it's an odd stat

It was just a thought...

Yes, living in Noosa.

Great move!

In Adelaide, Freeman would be both a footballer and a public intellectual
