Had to laugh at the freo numpties ringing up 6pr last night after his manager had been on, saying they feel comfortable about the trade now they know the reasons as he didn't bag freo, jeez how naive are these cretins, as if a player manager is going to publicly bag freo when he may need to do future deals. The losers will grab anything to feel good.

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.

Fortunately they went to the Shockers, and we dodged a couple of bullets.

Lol I think for the sake of balance Simmo would love to have acquired the contested marking services of Rory Lobb.

You’re deluded.

Simmo would be more than happy to stick with Kennedy, Darling and Allen over Lobb, Hogan and McCarthy.

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.

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?

Not only that, he's fast and ferocious in the clinches

Where to you display your "flag condenders" awards?

St Kilda get it right.
Freo get it wrong again.
Hill not worth the same as Kelly.

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.
