My assessment from watching him play is that he could benefit from a hair cut.

Got in his eyes?

1 year extension is odd, doesn’t exactly show faith from the club.

Yeah pretty much lol.

Like if your job is to lead, mark and kick goals - best to shave off anything that's obscuring your vision haha.

This is basically his 1st full season. Barely played last year. So coming from a fair way back

So another 12 months makes this year and next like a standard 2 year contract for a draftee.

Reckon it's a good call for both parties

I would think it’s not often that KPF are only given 3 years on a list though. The writing is on the wall given he has fallen below our latest draftees, but atleast start talking him up for trade bait back to SA, most likely port who are in shambles

Why the hell would Port want him?
They have a flood of key forwards -Todd Marshall, Georgiades, Finnlayson and Lord. There’s no point getting the Faucett turned on at Alberton.

It's only fair that now we're 18th on the ladder, I show the faith back in the club and do everything I can to put them in front. In the end, I'm stoked I made the decision to stay. I f***ing love this club”

Port are probably gonna start rebuilding. Marshall has concussion issue and always injured and Georgiadss might be a player but he’s only 192cm. Outside of those 2 they’re all crsp. I think they’d jump at a chance to take an agile 197 player in Fawcett.

Although unusual to only get 3 years I don't think it's unusual to get 1 year contracts when you've had so many injuries.
