Fremantle is trying to lure Anthony McDonald-Tipungwuti out of AFL retirement.

He played 126 games for Essendon through six seasons and was the club’s leading goalkicker in 2020.

6PR sports presenter Paddy Sweeney told Breakfast it makes sense for the Dockers to chase him, despite the club’s bevy of small forwards.
