Fremantle coach Ross Lyon insists hes not worried about the trade speculation surrounding some of his AFL stars, declaring the Dockers are a destination club who will soon be a powerful on-field force again.Brownlow medallist Nat Fyfe sent a shock through the Dockers earlier this week when he said he would explore his free agency options before deciding whether to re-sign with Fremantle.Fyfe is contracted until the end of next season, but the 24-year-old would be hot property on the open market if he decides to leave under free agency.And there are rumours goalsneak Hayden Ballantyne might explore a move away from the club.Lyon says Ballantyne hasnt indicated to him that he wants to be traded.Chris Mayne, Zac Clarke, Matt de Boer, and Clancee Pearce are unrestricted free agents who could be on the move, while the future of uncontracted midfielder Michael Barlow is also unclear.Fringe midfielder Nick Suban has already been linked to a move east.But there is some good news for Fremantle.Homesick GWS forward Cam McCarthy is desperate to move to the Dockers, while Hawthorn premiership midfielder Bradley Hill has also expressed a desire to switch to Fremantle.And rising GWS star Rory Lobb could also end up at the Dockers after reports emerged the 23-year-old was exploring a move back to WA.Fremantle are likely to finish 16th this year after snaring just three wins from 19 games.The Dockers have strruggled to attract key position players in recent years, leaving some noticeable holes in both defence and attack.ddddddddddddBut Lyon was doing his best to spruik the club on Friday, saying he fully expects his current stars to keep buying in, and others to join them.We see ourselves as a big club, Lyon said.Over the last three years weve won the second most games.

Fyfe, (Harley) Bennell, (Michael) Walters, (Lachie) Neale - those sort of guys.And were 52,000 members. Weve got powerful sponsors. So why wouldnt you want to come here if youre a WA kid?AFL great Mick Malthouse predicts Fremantle will miss the finals again next year - and hes not alone.But Lyon is optimistic he can orchestrate a quick turnaround.Beliefs a choice, Lyon said.Results are nice to have, but I dont need results to believe in where were heading.I believe were going to work our way through. Historys littered with clubs that go down and come back up, and we believe were going to be one of those clubs. ' ' '
