Not quite sure what you mean there, would have thought the midfield, barring injuries had been pretty good for several years. Was consistently rated as one of the better ones for several years. Neale leaving and Mundy in his twighlight, Cerra and Brayshaw a year or two away from potential, the midfield is being rebuilt to some extent.
AFL ratings midfields Fremantle:
2015 top 2
2016 5th
2017 couldnt find but would have been out of top 10
2018 14th

So I guess the answer is 2 years.

The comment is abt the apparent rebuild that has been happening for a few years, the coach even makes the statement that they are rebuilding, sorta like, Carlton, St Kilda et al.

You highlighted the midfield comment so you would think that is what you were talking about and the coach has said they are in a rebuild I'm not sure what you are trying to insinuate there. It's pretty clear the club has been in a rebuild for 3 years now, its been announced, were you not listening and now you have just discovered this. Just incase you don't quite grasp what is going on, all clubs go through re builds at some stage, usually over several years, because of retirements, delistings, injuries etc. Freo are one of those clubs who have entered into this process.

Seeing where the Cats former coach is now and with what happened at the Bombers you have to really question how legit those Geelong Flags were, the Weapon and Dank were invovlved during that period and those are real facts.

Jeez, Pete ......... I've heard of going off-topic (and even done it myself from time-to-time), but your comment must take the biggest cake of all time.

Not really Unka mentioned wonder coach I was just thinking he may of been considering with whats happened with Bomber and Essendon, good chance it may of happened at the Cats thus robbing Lyon in 09.
