AFL journalist Nathan Schmook joined Triple M Perth's breakfast show to discuss the reactions from Lachie Neale's reported trade request to return to Fremantle.
Perth journalist Ryan Daniels revealed the news 24 hours after Brisbane's semi-final loss to the Bulldogs, explaining the situation involving Neale wanting to start a family in Western Australia.
"Who moves on to make way?" Basil Zempilas asked.
Xavier Ellis believes acquiring Neale may not be favourable for the Dockers, who are building a young core midfield.
"I've got an unpopular opinion." Ellis said.
Ellis said by the time Fremantle build towards a premiership side, "Lachie Neale's going to be 33 or 34".
