Review Another One Down, Who’s Next - Freo by 3 Over Geelong

[Tbonefreo]

I showed my nrl loving mate the freo v wc match.

He couldn't believe it when i told him we disted this bloke, Shultz, and how he was a plumber.

Guy now follows freo and is super excited every time he kicks a snag

Finally back out of my Carlton mod emposed week off. What a pleasure that game was to watch. True coming of age. "WERE BACK BABY!!!"...George Castanza voice.

 

[Dockeroo]

Not to be a nostradamus flog but I called it that we would win. They were cherry ripe for the picking.

Booked my tickets for the may 28 mcg match against Melbourne. Who's going?

I’ll be there!

 

[oldgoat]

OMG! Heart stopping at the end there! Just finished watching it on the toob.
The whole team was immense in the end but just gotta special mention Blake Acres.

I was wrong when I potted him in previous times but he's just found a level of consistency in his aggression I didn't think he could get to, but wow, he's responded.

It's hard to think of him as a liability any more. Kudos to the man.

Good to see you responded too.
He has definitely found his groove.
Whos gonna be whipping person now?

Fox sports:

"So damaging was Acres that Chris Scott moved Chris Scott to a wing to accompany him for the fourth quarter."

Confirmed shape shifter lol.

 

[WaywardSonSon]

If it wasn’t for a shonky quarter against St Kilda, we would be 7-0.

What even is going on???

 

[holy diver]

Super stoked over todays win.


What a time to be a Freo supporter...

You can sense the momentum starting to build

 

[Lach72]

I am overseas so just read the last few pages on the game thread. I thought we had lost considering the comments. So negative. Get a grip!

When you actually see what Luke Ryan and Lloyd Meek did you might put a foot through the TV

 

[Madas]

I’m very excite
Haven’t watched the game yet been at footy all day

 

[Lach72]

I can forgive Meek. That was a skill error.

Luke Ryan’s short pass down the ****ing middle with 3 minutes to go when we’re 15 points up is nigh on unforgivable and almost cost us the match

 

[Madas]

Now we just need to confirm the time and which gate and Bigfooty will assemble!

I’ll drive up to Perth to see that
Can we lock in a time please

 

[MadEyeEmmy]

If she is doing that I'm bringing a big blanket to wrap her up in so she can strip off, walk from the train to gate and then get dressed again without the gazing eyes

Bless. This is so wholesome

 

[WilloTree]

Eagles losing by 100+
We beat Geelong in Geelong without some seriously good players

What a time to be a freo fan

I can't even..

All credit to him, and our club. He's finally showing the ability that he's got and no squibs. It's taken many years, a few coaches, a number of positions, but he's realising his potential now.

It actually shows what a guy can do when he gets a decent run at. For a guy who builds his game around his ability to run (his uncle Barry Acres was a 800m national champion so it’s in his genes) all the injuries over the last few years haven’t allowed him to show his best. Now we are seeing it

That mark was Meek's best moment of the match. Pity he stuffed it up.

Bless. This is so wholesome

I love some of the Freo Big Footy regulars. They come across as people who would just look out for you

 

[StingBitten]

Geelong aren't ready for the triple mosquito fleet threat in Shooter, Switta and Sonson.

Narrow wings? Play down the corridor we've got the skills and the speed.

Freo by 3pts.

Decent prediction SB! Almost as good as that time you predicted Pav would retire in 2016 back in 2010.

Solid.

 

[trenton wave]

Did anyone else hear TNT after Geelong goals today? I knowEd Sheeran said a few chords can just be coincidence but this jus seemed like theft. And ageee with Jake Niall on Age about ground announcer asking crowd to make noise at boundary throw in, just don’t. Fair play to Geelong fans, they didn’t.

 

[Quazar]

Wow!! Oh my goodness, that was epic! A hugeeeeeeeeee win!!

In the presser afterwards, it was mentioned that that was the lowest score Geelong has been kept to at the Cattery for 50 years!!! 50 F***in' years!! Imagine that.....that's what I'm talking about, we keep knocking off these little hurdles and previous hoodoos - we quell teams defensively and have the ability to score in crucial moments, although this game was tight and lower-scoring...we are finding a way to get it done, massive mark of a team in a strong window right now; this is unbelievable what we're doing with so many crucial players going down here and there and the list demographic being so young and lesser-experienced; I gave us no chance when Tabs and Darce were not going to be playing, 2nd week in a row without Chappy and Young. Jebus Christ, we are a contender this year; we simply have to be...?!?!?! It's astonishing, 3 from 3 away wins and one at the Cattery of all places, shades of the spirit of 2013 all over again and memories of Hill tearing off that interchange for one of our most iconic and precious memories, maybe not quite as scintillating....but up there. Farkn 'ell folks!

And up them! That one's dedicated to Kingy and all the anti-Freo press brigade that gave us no chance.......ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Suck on them apples, ya mouldy gits!! Hehehe....

"....hit 'em real hard send em down below...ohhh Freo, give em the old heave-ho, we are the Freo Dockersssssss!"
Hellfire yesssss!!!

 

[FreoMatt]

is...is he an AA smoky? I can't believe I just typed that.

This ******* team though, big feels today

I’ve posted this before, but the Melb media think Ed Langdon is a lock for AA wing. So far this year, Acres is ahead of him in pretty much every stat, like metres gained, disposal efficiency, inside 50’s, tackles, score involments….etc

1st quarter umpiring.

I thought the first 5-10 mins was a total horror show

Geelong’s ground announcer​

And to editorialise for all a moment, telling a crowd to make some noise at a boundary throw in six minutes into the third quarter when the Cats have not scored a goal for more than a quarter is not right. Geelong are the second oldest club in the game’s history and their fans provide a unique atmosphere at their home ground. They do not need to be told how to act at the football nor turned into an American environment on the surf coast. People are all for innovation but not useless copy cat ideas.

 

[TheLastCall]

I’m very excite
Haven’t watched the game yet been at footy all day

I managed to avoid spoilers and watched the delayed telecast. What a match. Go Freo!

 

[Quazar]

These are the scores we've conceded since St.Kilda game - 47, 54, 59, 62 & 66. And even in that loss it was 65....

Incredible stuff, the defense even with its lapses are harder than an ageing German Techno DJ on viagra
