Fremantle have used their rookie list for development and to offer some delisted players another chance at making the big time – a policy which has seen Brady Grey and, to a lesser extent, Josh Deluca seize their opportunities this year. Ryan Nyhuis is close to becoming the third rookie to play this season.
Josh Deluca
Made his long-awaited debut against Geelong in round 14 after originally being recruited in the same 2014 draft as Connor Blakely, Lachie Weller and Ed Langdon. Will hope for more opportunities on the run home.
Taylin Duman
The rangy 19-year-old has settled in at Peel averaging 16.9 touches in 10 games in his first season on Freo's rookie list.
Brady Grey
Brought some tenacity to the forward line in round three and has played every game since, bar one due to a hamstring. Averaging 4.7 tackles and kicked eight goals. The 2013 draft pick has grabbed his chance after being delisted last year.
Ryan Nyhuis
Was close to an AFL debut before the bye after overcoming a shin injury to start the season and performing strongly at Peel to earn elevation to the senior list. Good-sized defender in his second season.
Luke Strnadica
Raw forward-ruck has averaged nearly 10 disposals and booted six goals in 10 League games for the Thunder in his first season at Fremantle.
Matthew Uebergang
Showed promise last year in the WAFL before suffering a serious hamstring injury midway through the season and is unlikely to be seen at all this year.
