Yes I read that too DD.
Out of the pens of journalists.
WOW!
Eagles have more chance of doing that than the Dorkers.
Sounds like a lot of sour grapes there DD.
Very astute Eagles.

No sour grapes at all DF I’m happy for Tim and his family and I’ve got no doubt whatsoever if he came to Fremantle he would have been happy also. Good luck to Tim and the Eagles. Sweet grapes. ???

According to Dockers Dynasty (DD) 99% of AFL players play for the club they supported as a kid. I’m also sure DD has seen all the photos of Tim Kelly floating around on the world wide web with him and his kids in Freo gear. So tell me again about your destination club?
No difference Baz to numpties, cretins, flogs whatever you want to call them who wet their pants thinking Kelly chose the Eagles as his preference over Fremantle that somehow reflects poorly on Fremantle. What happened last year when you tried to woo Hogan and Lobb?
I have to put up those same flogs that every time you say to a WC supporter I follow Fremantle, they can’t wait to say “oh sorry to hear that”. They think it’s hilarious. My comeback is no need to apologize, it’s ok you’re a WC supporter.
Would be a pretty boring state, some say it is anyway, if we all supported one team wouldn’t it? Bit like our WAFL these days with one team dominating. My advice is don’t get too cocky Eagles supporters. It wasn’t long ago we were dominating the derbies and flag contenders. Things can change quickly.

And freos domination of the Derbies translates into flags…doesn’t it? Well for Freo it does…win a Derby and there’s another flag. :pinch: :pinch:
Fortunately they went to the Shockers, and we dodged a couple of bullets. B)

Lol I think for the sake of balance Simmo would love to have acquired the contested marking services of Rory Lobb.
[/quote]
You’re deluded.
Simmo would be more than happy to stick with Kennedy, Darling and Allen over Lobb, Hogan and McCarthy.
[/quote]
Well your club must have been deluded for trying to lure them to the Eagles. Anyway in case you can’t work it out I was referring to your ruckman who struggles to take a contested mark, in fact any marks.
Hopefully you can get Kennedy fit for one last hurrah and fingers crossed Jack stays fit.
[/quote]
Sorry my mistake, didn’t understand you were comparing Lobb, who was drafted to GWS as a key forward then requested a trade to Fremantle to also play as a key forward, to West Coasts ruck.
Really difficult to understand Kelly’s decision to want to play at West Coast and play with an All Australian ruckman, Rising Star and Mark of the Year winner.
Yep, Natanuis strength is his tap work and it’s one hell of a strength, if he doesn’t take a mark then it doesn’t really matter and hardly any ruckmen take marks nowadays, did seven foot Sandilands ever take one?

St Kilda get it right.
Freo get it wrong again.
Hill not worth the same as Kelly.
[/quote]
Who said he was? St Kilda have shown their hand, they got other things on their mind apart from Hill that’s why they traded pick 6 and 59 for picks 12 & 18. They are losing Josh Bruce so they need to find another key forward. I think the other bloke that keeps getting concussion has retired also.
They also tried to push his price down after a medical report. B. Hill is elite in 3 categories, a 3 time premiership player and is contracted for 2 more years, he doesn’t have kids with special needs. Fremantle have every right to play hard ball and his misses just needs to learn some lessons in life. It’s time for this nonsense to stop.
Geelong refused to let Kelly go last year and he got over it and Hogan had wanted to come home for a few years prior to last year. Looks like he better get back home and get ready for pre season training under his new coach and grow up.
I agree 100% DD. If he had just a year on his contract before becoming a free agent you’d say fair enough we’ll take the best we can get but with 2 years still to run I wouldn’t trade him unless they get offered something too good to refuse. Over to you StK.

BC it’s a worrying trend that has to stop, all this partner is homesick crap ffs your partner is on 3/4 of a million bucks love. How many CEO’s, Executives wives complain about moving interstate or even overseas when their husband lands a big gig on big bucks? They probably do but they soon get over it. Time for the AFL to grow up.
Essendon playing hard ball over Daniher and he only has a contract for 1 more year - Hill is contracted for another 2 years.
If St Kilda reckon (and maybe he is, a bloody good player) he is worth 900k a year then they need to stump up - it’s not like Brad Hill’s contract is up at the end of next year and he is eligible for free agency.
St Kilda have made the big bold call on his worth - Fremantle made their call and play on him when they traded for him from Hawthorn at the end of 2017. And they have him signed up for another 2 - hang tough. Matthew Lloyd having a crack at Bell for his stance, be interesting if he has a crack at Adrian Dodoro and Essendon for their stance on trading Daniher - who again by the way is only contracted for next year and then is probably eligible for free agency, unlike Brad Hill.

Not sure why you keep banging on about tainted premierships?
Did any West Coast players test positive to performance enhancing substances during any of their premiership years?
Did West Coast get found guilty of salary cap breaches?
If you’re implying that recreational drug use amongst a group of players is reason to question a premierships validity then you better question every flag won over the last 15+ years…
What is funny though DD, is that even you, as a die hard Freo supporter, are talking about West Coast winning their next premiership and where they’ll put the Cup!
No ones saying that about Fremantle’s premiership chances.

This “tainted premiership” is so passé. Seems as though the Freo faithful haven’t the ability to come up with something new. Come on guys…let’s think up something funny!
