Autopsy Freo Lose To North at Home

[MadMundy]

Jaegar and Jackson are poor recruits. We have gained nothing by recruiting them.

Walters is our only natural forward. We need 4 more.

Keep Amiss, being in Treacy and Sturt. They're young but it's still better than what we have.

 

[fnerd]

How ******* awesome was it that with 13 seconds left instead of kicking it long we decided to chip kick it and THEN kick it long

Done with footy this year

Yeah this absolutely bewildered.
Hope all gsme thry lower their eyes going fwd , then the one ,ONE time you HAVE to bomb it .. they chip kick it sideways …. You couldn’t make this shit up

 

[MrDanggazz]

No matter what position on the ground you want to blame, this is all on JL.

What they were doing over the off-season I have no idea.

We were absolutely fisted by that umpiring the whole game but **** me if we are not ****ed anyway.

The forwardline is nothing short of shambolic and the midfield is getting annihilated. I could honestly swallow a bad year if we had our pick to try and nail an actual forward but the fact we don’t is absolutely gutting.

Wasn’t even a lack of trying to move it quickly today it was just losing every ****ing contest forward of the D50. It’s insane how two coaches with proper forwardline credentials in Graham and JL can a have a forwardline that looks this completely ****ed

Also I genuinely hope that's the last time we see Taberner in a Fremantle jumper. I've defended this man for years when nobody else did, I've backed him in at the worst of times, and he's let me down time and time again, I'm over it. He's cooked beyond belief.

No disrespect to him as a person, he seems lovely, but it's time to move on. If the list management have any sense he's being cut come year's end.

You watched that tripe and that's your input? Tabs? Not JL, not the midfield, not Jackson and Darcy, not the gameplan, not the lack of rebound, not the structure....but just Tabs?

 

[Taylor]

Two games in a row we only needed to win some centre clearances and we would have won, everything else is actually alright but the centre stoppage game is so trash I want to kick down the midfield coach's door over it.

It's the first contest of the game and we have dropped the ball on it.

 

[fnerd]

I can't remember ever being so unenthused and despondent while watching a game. There was just nothing there at all to give you any hope.

A top 3 pick at the end of the year?… oh wait

 

[MadMundy]

There's plenty more to contribute, questions need to be asked about Longmuir.

But the forward line needs a serious clean out, and unfortunately as it pains me to say, Taberner is the first that needs to go.

I'm going to respond to Righteo for his clip in the main thread: Thinking Clarko is a shit human for the allegations against him and his time at Hawthorn is not "Loser Freo speak". It is, in fact, an opinion I had well before this game. Do not conflate game day petulance for an honest opinion.

 

[Taylor]

So apparently our AA defender Brennan Cox is a forward...

...again.

He was starting on the most forward corner of the square on the wing those last few mins

 

[Andy Brennan]

We're the new Carlton. Look good on paper but dogshit on field

It was going to be paid but the siren went. Simple as that.

...then it should've been paid by your logic?

 

[hoss]

Tabs is the only tall forward to do anything this year. That's the whole problem.

I think that thinking someone is a crap human for allegations, without proof is a recipe for a rubbish society. Why not leave this on the main board? There is enough to be pissed about without this rubbish in here.

 

[trentjac]

Absolutely smashed in clearances. If Fyfe comes back, he needs to be 100% midfield

 

[Ge3ks]

Pearce captain over Brayshaw makes no sense. It didn't at the time and it doesn't now.

It doesn't help that he is encouraging and rallying his team from a position where most of his team can't hear him.

But to be fair, Brayshaw and Serong should have been talking more. Vice Captains etc.

 

[royale with cheese]

Everyone's blaming the forwards and the midfield when the problem is the game plan, or in this case the lack of one. This s**t is on the coach and coaching staff. Next in line, is the selection committee and that's on the coach too.

The game plan sucks but there’s no excuse for all the marks our talls drop

 

[mike91]

Tabs has literally taken more marks than Darcy and Jackson combined this season.

He hasn't been great, but he's the only tall forward doing anything at all

In less game time, he's taken more marks than the rest of our talls combined

 

[Kangaroos techno]

The JHF reaction vs Port will be interesting. How many of your 12 fans will give him a cheer?

Not even remotely similar. Logue gave everything to freo and couldn't break into your defence. He left with the good graces of your coach and the players.

I didn't want this to drag on. I just wanted to share my disappointment.

I suspect Mundy hid a lot of problems even in the twilight of his career

 

[BarbieITFC]

Worst performance in 10 years. So many things not working.

Centre clearances are a liability, we’ve just been smashed by a centre bounce unit that has Goldstein and Cunnington in it - with a combined age of more than Brayshaw, Serong and Jackson combined.

Our mid forward connection is terrible - and it’s the fault of both units - the forward movement is appalling and the midfield kicking is deplorable.

Let this sink in - we’ve kicked 14 (just 14!!!) goals in pretty much eight quarters of football against the Saints and North. Collingwood have scored 37 goals in two games.

Our ball movement is more constipated than at any time I can recall and our marking is like our hands are baked in granite.

All this - whilst we have the best availability of any team in the league.

Forget top four - we’ll be lucky to break out of the bottom four.

Comprehensively beaten by the Saints with the worst injury list in living memory and North.

Utter shit.

Complete and utter shit.

Dear Freo Footy Club

Thanks for the past 28 years. You’ve broken me.
