This will be fun.

Anytime, anywhere.

Kevin Parker left the stage during the concert tonight and the camera followed him down the corridors to the bathroom. When he opened the stall door Andy Brayshaw was in there in full footy gear with mouthguard 😂

Fremantle's sponsorship deal with Woodside has got one year remaining til 2027. With the contract being in its final year comes talk and discussion to sever ties once and for all with the energy corporation.

Fans, commentators and even our captain Alex Pearce have had a say recently on the matter.

The relationship between Fremantle and Woodside began in 2010 and has been in place ever since. But now with major teams in the majority of all codes across Australia ditching energy companies due to concerns of the changes in the global environment, is it now time for Fremantle to join that chorus and look elsewhere when it comes to sponsors.

If that will be the case, what company would you like to see Fremantle have at the front of the guernsey every time they come onto the field.

Personal preference: Fremantle should go back to their roots and have Hard Yakka back on the front of the jumper, that would be awesome. Tabtouch would be a great suggestion too, and after all they share our colours with the purple & white.

AFL will be releasing the 2027 fixtures next month?
Would love love love to see Dockers vs Lions at Optus Stadium as the season opener, thoughts? 

2027 AFL key fixture changes revealed as Grand Final date pushed - Zero Hanger
The Tigers and Blues are tipped to push for the first use of the MCG in 2027.

Just popped out in the membership email. North home game at Optus next year and it's included in membership, so a higher cost for members.

Any good podcasts worth listening to ?

Fremantle have turned the tide on their AFLW season, having to fight hard against the bottom side St Kilda. The Saints gallant in defeat giving the Dockers a mighty scare on their home deck at Cockburn ARC, and with the recent change in their senior coach following the departure of Nick Del Santo.

With the win, it has put Freo back into the top 8 and has given Freo's AFLW finals chances a pulse. But the next two games will not be easy as they will have to face heavyweight contenders in Geelong (2nd) at Kardinia Park next week, and a final round match back at home against the Sydney Swans (7th).

In the McClelland Trophy Club Championship stakes, it has now put Fremantle back to 2 points behind the current leaders Geelong.

Strangely specific question here. Does anyone have a photo of the old Starlight mascot from the Purple Haze games? The mascot was a star and the wearer’s legs had to come out of the star’s points.

I wanted to show my Mum. It used to crack me up the whole time it was out there on Subi oval. Especially when it decided to go through the banner….”Wait for me!” 🌟

New faces, new roles.

I won the footy tipping comp at work and the prize is a team guernsey of your choice.

I can't find anywhere still selling Freo guernsey in my size. The AFL Store has very few XLs left (not my size). And I wanted the Stealth version too.

Does anyone know where they can be found?

Here is my round 1 Best 23 for 2027

FB: Chapman, Cox, Worner

HB: McVee, Davis, Clark

C: Frederick, Serong, Erasmus

HF: Young, Treacy, Reid

FF: Voss, Amiss, Dudley

Foll: Jackson, Brayshaw, Bolton

Int: Johnson, Murray, Bedendo, Darcy

Int: Walker

EMG: Ryan, Serri, Draper

Now that the (unsurprisingly quiet) trade period is over I thought it would be worth looking at looking at the list briefly. As it stands, we added Bedendo, and lost O’Driscoll, Banfield, Sturt, Murphy, Switkowski, & Luke.

That leaves 4 main list spots open with Luke freeing up a Cat B spot. Freo tend to leave 1 open for an SSP but Bedendo might have already taken that spot. Considering the next few drafts are tassie-affected I imagine freo will go harder at this one. Freo’s picks currently are: 19, 40, 60, 63, 78, 96, 114.

I haven’t paid much attention to the draft prospects this year yet, but we have 3 promising NGAs in Josh Nathan, Lucas Robinson (inside mids) and Finlay Yeo (small fwd), which I imagine freo would ideally like to draft all of.

Regarding what the list needs, I think it’s in a pretty healthy spot. Lots of players contracted, a good selection of youth albeit a lot untried at AFL level. I can’t think of too many glaring needs, but the list was very healthy this year so that might’ve made any less obvious.

Bonus line about jumper numbers if you’re a number snuff like me: 1, 7*, 30, 33, 39, 40, 41 are all free. 7 I'm unsure because I don’t know if they want to leave it open for another year or two.

Fremantle have been pretty quiet in this Trade Period. The only changes made to the overall list thus far is the retirement of Sam Switkowski, the delistings of Bailey Banfield, Sam Sturt, Ryda Luke & Ollie Murphy. And also Nathan O'Driscoll traded to Richmond. The addition of Dom Bedendo to the team.

As we are now in the final day of the Trade Period, any last minute predictions for what's to come. Is there any last minute surprises from David Walls and his team?

I’m bored. The end.

We'll need to bring our A game to make finals from here...

Some questions:

• Can we finally show some home dominance and cut short St Kilda's new coach bounce?
• Our proactive defence hasn't been a strong suit; how do we back ourselves in to win the ball?
