Yeah okay - it would be VERY clunky if the ball had gone down the other end for a goal without a stoppage and it had been a behind then.
From what I’ve seen this year though, the AFL don’t have any form of consistency requirements in officiating.
Sorry if this is doubling up - but I haven’t found this discussed anywhere else.
There was a score review after a goal by Freo in the derby which appeared to go back to a previous play to check if a point had been conceded. It was all correct and the right call had been made to play on, we...
Totally agree.
At the game it appeared when Fyfe moved on to Reid acting as a tag/defensive mid at stoppage in the third it changed the game for us. His blocking while keeping the WC mids out of it, created the space for Serong and Brayshaw to run riot.
Freo had the first couple kicked...
I was there at the G on that last Saturday in September 2013. The heartbreak after was like a close funeral.
However, I will never forget, nor do I want to: the build up, the parade, the Freo big footy pub meetup the night prior, the lack of sleep, the betting on the draw in case we needed to...
After the weekend, the discussion around playing Darcy and Jackson together should be put to bed.
We would have beaten the hawks if we had Darcy rucking against Meek.
Jackson makes our forward line more mobile, and allows us to work over the opposition rucks as the game wears on.
Couldn’t care less about West Coast and how they are an embarrassment to WA.
How we are going to win the flag and then get Warner and Bolton and keep a first rounder?
This bodes really well for our haul of picks and the value they hold:
Callum Twomey from AFL website:
“CLUBS are expected to try to trade next year's first-round picks into this year's draft as recruiters grow more enamoured with the class of 2024.
Although there is no consensus on pick...
It should have been ball, but was called a dangerous tackle - same as Dangerfields on Walsh, yet he got a week. The main issue is the unpredictability of the MRP.
Very glad he didn’t get sighted.
Victorian team supporters talking about ViCBias is like listening to Boomer landlords talk about rental costs or university fees.
It’s either in their interest to maintain the current state of Bias, or they don’t have any need to try and understand - so don’t care.
Vic teams get so much...
Interesting that all the talk of getting Logan MacDonald has died off with the emergence of Treacy.
The three pronged Amiss, Treacy, Macdonald attack would work teams over and allow Jackson to become a monster around the ground, playing wherever he is most damaging.
Chads gotta be the dream as...
Player suspensions are just not a reflection of player fairness any more. The tribunal being the chook raffle it is and the nature of what now constitutes a suspendable act.
The penalty of the suspension on the players chances of winning is enough.
They should just get rid of ‘clean sheets’ as...
You’ll be waiting a while. Have a listen to David Kings interview on Backchat. He has the biggest case of FIGJAM ever heard. Thinks he’s gods gift to football opinions.
Posting this thread I had way too much faith in the internet / Freo Bigfooty. I still stand by it as a suitable route the club could take (but probably never will).
Apologies to the mods and any affected posters for any angst / issue caused.
Recent referendums showed exactly why a poll is not appropriate, resulting in more confirmation bias and greater separation.
It wouldn’t be decided on a thread here anyway. I won’t be changing this thread to a poll, it is a discussion.
Not being from Fremantle, I’ve never had my support of the team based on the suburb. I understand it is important to some though.
However I don’t see how including Walyalup in our name lessens the brand or changes this though - it simply makes the club more supportive and inclusive to our...
