Justin Longmuir and his team at Fremantle have become a dangerous side in recent times, but 2023 is presenting as a year where weaknesses are opening up.

Fremantle recently lost a few key players, including Lachie Neale back in 2018, Adam Cerra to Carlton, Rory Lobb to the Bulldogs and Jesse Hogan to the Giants, to name a few. Whilst 2023 has yet to hit the same strides compared to last year, what can Fremantle do to boost themselves back into contention?

In the sixth part of our trade target series, we take a look at potential players that could make their way west to become a Docker.

4. Jeremy Sharp

A flank option from the Suns that could be an option in more ways than one. Once again from Western Australia, Sharp hasn't quite been able to break into the Suns' senior side this year so far. The out-of-favour utility could be the key to Fremantle, with Sharp able to fill multiple roles thanks to his versatility.

2021 was Sharp's best year, averaging 18.3 disposals per game and was able to free himself up from the contest to win a clearance for the Suns. Sharp has also been a strong marker of the ball, with the ability to make the right decision before disposing of it.
