Good move for Crozier I think, he will benefit for getting a different role at the Dogs. Frees the way for the Dockers to do the deals for Balic, Matera and Wilson

Mike have you watched a replay of the Peel v Subi GF yet.Was a pretty good game.Just on Crozier he was pick no 20 for Freo in 2011

Seems GWS have agreed to what ever Fremantle offered first plus the pick 40 for Crozier.

I haven't seen anything regarding that result as yet.

Giants fold in Fremantle stand-off

Giants star Nathan Wilson will be traded to Fremantle as early as Friday afternoon, according to reports.
The 24-year-old, who joined the Giants as a 17-year-old special access selection, has reportedly already purchased a house in Perth and his move is expected to be announced soon.
AFL Trade Radio reports the Dockers have been forced to beef-up their offer of a future second round draft pick for Wilson.
The No. 40 pick the Dockers will receive in exchange for letting Hayden Crozier move to the Western Bulldogs is reportedly the key to satisfying the Giants.
It was reported earlier in the trade period that the Giants had knocked back the Dockers’ first offer of their second round pick in 2018.
Fox Sports News’ senior AFL reporter Jake Niall says the Giants have demanded a pick somewhere between No. 15 and No. 20 in this year’s draft before they will let Wilson walk.
It means the Dockers may have to do some wheeling and dealing to trade picks with a third party to meet the Giants’ demands.

Watts (pardon the pun) with the sudden attraction to PA? Stephen Motlop, now Jack Watts nominated Port as their preferred destination. Think there has been another I can't think of right now.

Seems to be taking Fremantle a long time to get deals done for Matera and Wilson.

If this is true, it is a bit of a hammer blow for Fremantle. Maybe he see his role as a running HB going to Wilson and now other place for him.

That's a bit of a shock. Is he still contracted? I wouldn't think the recruitment of Wilson would place his spot in jeopardy if anything might free him up to run in the midfield or spend more time forward. The ones likely to be squeezed out are Sutcliffe, Sheridan and Spurr. But we should be able to command a good second round pick for him at the least. From memory he was our first round pick a few years ago.

another homesick footballer ?

Seems to be genetic, anchor - probably can't help himself.

The welcome swallows that live in eastern Australia move to northern Australia in winter.

You mean David Swallow Anchor?...Andrew has played over 200 games for North....

Dockers should ask for Martin in a player exchange, isn't Martin a WA boy, if they get him to say hes homesick how could they argue
