Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 20 - Freo v Eagles Sat July 27th 8:10pm AEST/6:10pm WST (OS)

[largebus]

Eagles were competitive vs the Lions and they get their best defender, best midfielder and best forward back in the side, even before you consider what happened last time. Yeo made the Freo midfield look like witches hats.

That said if we play in transition like we did on Sunday we should get up. Petruccelle and Jones dropped does take some pace out of them

Hoping to respond from the early season loss
Freo by 56

Freo are $1.10 to win. Eagles are $6.50

 

[Vintage]

4 very good ins for the eagles and all the outs are omissions (not forced). Pearce especially is a big loss for us.

I still expect Freo to win, but less confident than I was.

Hahaha - happy enough for some good banter. Also staying over for the suns game at Optus - so just gonna hope the People First Warriors continue their winless away run. Haven’t got too much optimism this week lmao

You’ve already shown by your comments on here to be a reasonable and balanced WCE supporter and not one of the 90% of flog Methcoast supporters who come to our home derby games.

Rewatching the highlights from the first derby again and it looks like 5th v 16th but the other way around. Depressing how far we’ve regressed since then.

Hopefully our mids can somehow find that spark again that literally ran rings around Freo’s midfield last time.

We can live! For a thousand years!

Love how the dockers get the home ground up and about

 

[im_a_lazy_sod]

That definitely looked like it hurt

Carlton/Essendon/Richmond fans when Daicos plays:
no booing

Collingwood/Essendon/Carlton fans when Dusty plays:
no booing

Fremantle fans when a first year player who rinsed them plays:
BOOO!!!!!!!!

LOL

 

[RonnieRaven]

This is good practice for if we meet blues in a final

 

[BringFevBack2021]

Unforgivable by Darcy to grab that out of the ruck, fresh air it and not have the ability to follow up at ground level

Gotta be able to do that at AFL level

 

[im_a_lazy_sod]

Good pressure and physicality this one. Without any biff or dirty play which is a nice change.

If you guys can get away with scragging Charlie like you’re scragging Waterman you may actually be a chance to beat us this time

 

[BringFevBack2021]

Fyfe worried out of it by the much smaller Cripps.. concerning

 

[BringFevBack2021]

Wow Fyfe can’t stand up in a tackle and dispose of it but has plenty of energy to wrestle

Really concerning

 

[Roobs321]

this is one of the more intense derby quarters in years, lovin the contest

 

[Chief]

Go Eagles!

 

[BringFevBack2021]

Wow Fyfe missing that kick by 20m with no pressure.. concerning

 

[CakeEater]

Eagles lifting in their GF so far Wosh

 

[BringFevBack2021]

Do a flip!

 

[Wosh]

Eagles lifting in their GF so far Wosh

Good game

 

[Delisted]

Whatever happened to Kuek? Looked super exciting in his juniors

 

[Wosh]

Go Eagles!

You just want cake!

 

[Mayes2Gray]

Damn, that was good by freo.

Eagles will be blown away next qtr

Death, taxes and umpires lifting for the Freo home derby
