Welcome Liam Baker

Fremantle putting in that offer last night for Bakes & Bolton was a godsend. The situation needed another potential buyer to squeeze a bit of extra juice out of WC.
Hartley must have been thrilled when that offer came in from them. It's only going to better overall though if he manages to now get 10 & 11 for Bolton. 10 & 18 won't cut it.

I wonder what the Liam Baker Appreciation Society is going to call themselves now.

Loved Liam. Polyfilla. Have a hole or cracks somewhere on field, apply Liam Baker Polyfilla. 90% chance it will disappear for that match.
Not sure will find someone as versatile. Hopefully we find someone better for one role though.

No pressure at all the Baker replacement is no other than
Steely Green the man that was struck by lightning and just brushed it off

IF we get 10 and 11 which has been our ask from the beginning, my guess is something else goes back in addition to Bolton.

He was on Trade Radio.
Gee he loves us.
He spoke really well and he knows exactly who gave him the opportunity to play in this competition.

Have said that all along and that the little man has big upside. Better kick than Bakes too. Maybe a better engine as well.

Put him on the ball I reckon. Where he played at South Fremantle.

Does he have a better left foot at 20 minute mark last quarter of a GF?? I hope so but doubt it

I have nothing against Steely Green who thankfully took a few steps forward this year.
But surely people are taking the *smile* if they are saying he will be an upgrade on toughness and skill on Bakes. I must have missed the joke.
Please I hope he is, but wow that is a long way off and I think disrespecting how good Bakes has been

Go well Bakes. One of the hardest players to pull on a Tiger jumper in my time watching footy. He has sneaky good skills as well.

Thanks Liam!

You always gave 100% and so glad your move back to WA got all sorted.

Looking forward to a kid or two coming back to Tigerland in future under the father/child rules.

Always liked Big Shorts. Not a great exit with the fan base the other week, but whatevs. Good player. Gave it his all. Premiership hero.

Good job Bakes. Thanks.

Yep, rookie pick, into 2 flags, warrior and pick 14 which feels slight overs, the Liam Baker experience has been grouse.

Little blokes who play big are great. Go well Eagle.
