I rather when the pundits are writing us off to be honest.
We seem to go a bit soft when everyone talks in the media about how good we are.
Much rather the boys were listening to Xavier Ellis

2018

Essendon 2019
Melbourne's first game against us at Perth Stadium was last year (2015 at Subi last time before then!)

To be fair to Essendon, we had then in Perth a shit tonne in the years before that

Also think we have them here this year

Should've known it would turn around as soon as whately opened his gob

I feel like Kingy is going early here. Maybe overcorrecting for not rating us other times?

I get that most of the other contenders have warts, but we literally lost to North at home and have a fair bit more to do to convince that our form is real.

Let's hope he is right!

 

[s_wd6]

i think Kingy believes our form improved bc we listened to him and he told us to play faster.

To be fair, it's pretty much the same thing most of our posters were screaming for

They love asking Jordan Clark about wce ffs. Second time in the past few days...

Now that we're at the bye I thought it might be interesting to have a look at the mid-way answer to the question every single pundit asked of us: "where will Freo's goals come from without Rory Lobb

The answer, in short, is Jye Amiss lol. He's on track to better Lobb's career-best year which is just the funniest shit ever.

Hard ball gets is impossible to listen to because of Xavier Ellis and his constant freo negativity. It’s not worth the aggravation.

I quite like HBG, feel like there's much more freo-negative podcasters out there than Ellis.

I try to stick to WA content as no one in Vic talks about us anyway (well, hardly anyone). i usually listen to the freo fan podcasts, mark duffield, and the sports today replays , esp the ones co-hosted by Mundy.

Has he been playing wing or half back at Peel? I can't see the appeal of changing the defense.

Will he stay with the Demons or go?

Both. But more half back this season.

Pish Posh. The Dockers listened to me.

 

[Wilksyy]

How about giving Kingy kudos for changing his tune?

I think we get too defensive when media say anything bad about us. Besides Xavier Ellis

and Ryan Daniels most of the talking heads in the West are Dockers supporters.

Does anyone else get a bit freaked out when there is heaps of positive media midweek about Freo?

It usually means we don't win the coming weekend. I'll wait until Sunday to see if we get a win.

It's fine because of the bye, they'll forget about us and focus on this weeks results next week.
