The Fremantle Dockers have made several changes to their playing list ahead of the 2025 AFL season. Notably, they have delisted four players: Matt Taberner, Ethan Hughes, Conrad Williams, and Sebit Kuek.
Matt Taberner, a veteran forward and two-time leading goalkicker for the Dockers, has been a significant presence in the team’s forward line over his career. Ethan Hughes, another experienced player with over 100 games, has been a reliable contributor in the midfield and defense. Conrad Williams and Sebit Kuek, both younger players, were also informed that they would not be offered new contracts for the upcoming season.
In addition to these delistings, the Dockers have made other adjustments to their roster. Forward Tom Emmett was delisted after two seasons with the club. Emmett played 15 games and kicked 11 goals during his tenure.
Ruckman Max Knobel was also delisted; however, Fremantle had initially committed to reselecting him in the Rookie Draft. Despite this intention, the Gold Coast Suns selected Knobel in the AFL Rookie Draft, preventing his return to the Dockers.
These roster changes are part of Fremantle’s strategy to restructure and strengthen their squad for the 2025 season. The club is expected to continue making strategic decisions in the lead-up to the new season, aiming to enhance their performance and competitiveness in the AFL.
