FREMANTLE has delisted untried winger Jaren Carr but has committed to handing the father-son prospect an AFL lifeline through next month’s rookie draft.<\/p>\n

The move opens another spot on the Dockers’ primary list ahead of the national draft, with the club confirming it intends to re-draft the 22-year-old as a rookie.<\/p>\n

Carr, who is yet to make his AFL debut, has continued to develop at WAFL level since arriving at Fremantle with pick No.63 in 2024.<\/p>\n

He averaged 21.3 disposals across 17 league appearances for Peel Thunder this season and kicked eight goals.<\/p>\n

Carr produced several strong performances late in the season, including 30 disposals in Peel’s finals clash against Claremont.<\/p>\n

At 191cm, Carr became Fremantle’s first father-son selection through the national draft.<\/p>\n

His father Matthew played 134 games for Fremantle between 2001 and 2008, while his uncle Josh also played 83 games for the Dockers.<\/p>\n

“Jaren has continued to develop in all aspects of his footy after being drafted at 20,” Fremantle football boss Joe Brierty said.<\/p>\n

“We are committed to taking him in the rookie draft and continuing his AFL career with us.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Dockers have delisted Jaren Carr, but plan to re-draft him in the Rookie Draft Jaren Carr during…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":943565,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[64,63,85],"class_list":["post-943564","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/943564","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=943564"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/943564\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/943565"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=943564"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=943564"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=943564"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
