Adam Cerr is this weeks NAB rising star nominee. Well done to the young man. He has played some very good football for us so far this season.
And if we can believe the commentators yesterday, he is close to signing an extension of his contract.
Congratulations Cerra
About time
Brayshaw and Banfields turn next
I thought that Banfield would have been our first.His performance has been solid all year.Not taking anything away from Cerra, but it seems that one flashy performance gets you a nomination rather than a string of good solid performances. Cerra has played well since his arrival in the side, but several others seem to have been gifted nominations after one performance.

The best rookie of the round gets the nomination, so yeah it's the flashy performance that is meant to get it

Nah it's not. They take into account a "body of work".
For the 1st half of the season its the best individual performance of the round.
Then they start to realise that some guys "need" a nomination so they start to take in to account their "body of work" to make sure they get a nomination.

He felt the need to hold out until the last minute for more money, doesnt suggest to me that the culture is amazing.

Your best
and fairest is probably leaving as well - along with your current number 1 ruck. How good is your culture

Ahh Gaff isn't quite gone yet, a much better chance to stay than Neale. And dont start me on that disgusting dive by Brayshaw, Gaff did nothing wrong
Number 1 ruck? Nah Nic Nat is staying. Lycett is a hack, missed his foot from 1cm out and got a right old touching up by Gawn when we actually needed him to stand up in round 22. Very happy for Port to overpay him and overpay us in a trade. Would prefer Hickey who at least put in a shift against the big dogs!

If you want to go there let's go through the list of the players that have left each side over their existence...pretty sure you'll find WC retention rate sky high compared to your mob. Pretty sure our culture is just fine. ;)

He is still contracted for next year (all rookies sign 2 year deals), so how is that holding out for more money? IF he was holding out for more money he would hold off til the end of next season. Then he would say "Pay me this much or I walk to the draft"

Gaff has been widely tipped to leave, just as Neale is being tipped to leave now. About even I say (except we will get a better pick :) )
If you seriously think that Brayshaw's broken jaw and displaced teeth is his fault because he ducked - then you need to take a long hard look at yourself. Brayshaw may have moved down very slightly but he wasn't the one throwing a punch. Gaff got 8 weeks because he threw a punch that caused serious damage.
You're complaining that Lycett got touched up by Gawn - every other clubs rucks got smoked by Gawn. I even give the chocolates to Gawn over Grundy

WE'VE GOT A LIVE ONE! haha just too easy
RE Lycett, sure but if he is demanding big dog money they are the sort of games he needs to stand up and he didnt. He's 26 by the end of this season, he's not a kid anymore
Gaff may leave to go home, Neale probably leaves to get out of Fremantle and their terrible culture. I know which I'd prefer!
The signing of Cerra is a great get for the club.It must be chewing in the guts to those know alls who had him being every where but Fremantle.
Some alleged "journalists" would still be wiping large amount of egg of their faces . Avery red headed red faced former player, and a very Hagged Sunday Times writer,.not a journalists.
