freo footy club

as a Melbourne supporter I hope Freo go all the way this season , but I have to really ask who is making the desions in the recruiting dept at Freo , Jack Anthony a couple of years ago on 500k a year and Colin Silvia on the same money

Tue, 2014-09-02 06:29

 Fyfe, hill, pearce, Ballantyne,  walters, neale, barlow, tabaner, sutcliffe

 

Need I say more?

 

Gumby cost us nothing for a one year contract and has now retired.  Sylvia hasn't worked out yet.  He still has another year.

 

I think the freo drafting, trading and recruiting record speaks for itself.

 

Nuff said.

 He only got two years, so the pressure is on him to perform.  Otherwise he won't be getting a new contract.

Tue, 2014-09-02 07:05

 Throw in Crozier and sheridan as well.  Mzungu has been a great mature aged recruit.

Duffy looks like he will do ok too.

Bottom line is for every bad, or not yet proven decision, there have been half a dozen excellent decisions.

 I reckon the WA representation is pretty fair.  Mundy could have been a bit stiff to miss out. Mckenzie and priddis are worthy from the cross towners
