Rising stars Rhys Palmer Mark Harvey’s insistence on not trading away and Garrick Ibbotson any first round draft picks will also see quality young players of the future become a vital part of that core group of young guns. While that is the future of the Fremantle Football Club, I must also acknowledge the past and the contribution made to this club by Matthew Carr, who announced his retirement back on 19 May. Hanging up the boots and leaving behind all that players cherish about being part of an AFL club is never an easy decision to make. But Matthew, who played 134 games for Fremantle and 28 with St Kilda, did it with all the class and poise that made him such a great contributor to our club. I, along with all our supporters and fans of the rugged combination provided by Matthew and his younger brother Josh, salute his career. We are hopeful that Matthew will have a role with the club at some stage in the future, particularly as he has been an outstanding mentor to our younger players who hold him in such high regard. On Sunday 1 June in Fremantle’s round 10 clash with Port Adelaide at Subiaco, the club posted an important milestone with our 300th AFL game.

  • ADELAIDE CROWS Chris Knights (Fwd) $291,600 Knights Will Miss the Final H&A Round of the Season After Undergoing Hip Surgery During the Week
    ADELAIDE CROWS CHRIS KNIGHTS (Fwd) $291,600 Knights will miss the final H&A round of the season after undergoing hip surgery during the week. He has been a massive disappointment this season, averaging 69 points per match and jumping in price by only $54,100. BERNIE VINCE (Mid) $364,000 Vince finished with a season-high 35 disposals and nine marks last week against Richmond, scoring 126 points – his second-best return for the year. He looms as a decent trade up target if you’re in the market for a player in his price range.
