Fremantle is one of the hardest teams to pick in terms of who the Dockers will target this trade period.

Justin Longmuir's men finished on top of the ladder, having secured the minor premiership on the eve of finals.

The majority of the Dockers' list have been signed up to long-term deals, and while they have been the dominant team of the home-and-away season this year, they also have a relatively young list. Meaning Freo should be in contention for the next few years at least.

Fremantle is yet to seriously be linked with any trade targets, so a few of these are unlikely but dream targets.

The Saints star has floated the option of moving in recent seasons, albeit to Victorian clubs. But could the Dockers make a play for the gun key defender?

One chink in the Dockers' armour in 2026 has been the ability for opposition key forwards to kick bags against Fremantle's defence.

GWS' Jake Stringer kicked seven goals, Hawthorn's Jack Gunston booted five, Carlton's Brodie Kemp secured four of his own.

Wilkie has been a stoic leader down back, and a star in one-on-one battles.

Could Fremantle encourage Wilkie to move west for a couple of seasons to make a play for a premiership?
