Review Fremantle Contest a Game in South Australia

[Snuffaluphagus]

Carlton peeps, come on, no one on here wants your advice, stay out

Edit: holy **** Carlton people, how can you think anyone here wants your input on umpires or anything to do with the game. Stay out or get pointed

 

[bushchook]

Treacy holds that mark and we win it.

Or the one a minute earlier that Walters kicked to him.

No point complaining about the umpires, we definitely had the better of the umpiring in the first 3 quarters.

Clark told Umpire "19" that he believed the decision not to call touched was incorrect. Umpires "19" felt violated and payed a free and a bonus 50 metre due his hurt feelings.

Carlton still has some legacy Visy brown paper bags to disperse.

And throat puncher gets off thanks to Cripps lawyer.

 

[Fat Nyfe]

The game was over when it happened, 6 of your 9 goals from free kicks, won the free kick count, out played Carlton for 90% of the game and lost! You’ll be a good team one day but it’s not now.

You aren’t a good team now and you won’t be one day either.

 

[FreoRicci]

This game just shows how badly we need Darcy. As good as Jackson is in midfield, we need him receiving the ball forward of the contest.

A few changes coming this week for sure.

Darcy in for who? Wouldn’t mind testing out Jackson as resting forward now that Frederick is out.
Johnson is out you’d have to admit

 

[Purple Jesus]

As Fremantle supporters, we actually do have some power to protest.

If we stop watching live broadcasted Freo games when we play Vic teams, then the AFL loses revenue.
We can still support Freo by being members, going to games, listening on radio, watching AFL replays of the game ... but by boycotting Free to air games with advertising and making it known why we no longer choose to support a corrupt AFL we can actually hurt them where it counts.

It won't be a problem for me, given half way through this game I had to mute the commentary anyway given my disgust with Garry Lyon's Pro VFL gaslighting of Fyfe's hit.

Unless you have a TV survey box, not watching the games will do nothing. They won’t know that you’re not watching.

Pointless reporting trolls when it's alt account's doing the trolling. Unless mods can ban the main account too?

 

[s_wd6]

If Treacy marked even half of the attempts he got two hands to today then the result isn't even in doubt. We controlled the game and lost our nerve time and time again at key moments. Tale as old as time.

And if Carlton kicked straighter earlier then the result isn't even in doubt. It's all well and good to say if if if but when the umpiring calls in the last three minutes purely decide the game then everything before that is irrelevant.

Coaches votes 9 for Clarke for a great game and calling out a couple of cheats

Can't agree more. Or even him dropping back into the hole.

Tabs.

 

[believe_it]

Sharps a nice pickup hey

 

[Purple Jesus]

WE DO A LOT OF SCENARIO TRAINING

Sure Cripps, scenarios where the umps are sucking you off.

 

[Balls In]

What actually happened there?

 

[noise36]

As much as I hate Carlton and the influence the umpires had in the end, the players did shit the bed in the final minutes, lots of dumb decisions.

 

[FreoRicci]

Hopefully the club can get around him. He got destroyed today but this effort was there.

He did well in patches. Just need more bulking up and experience

 

[eastfreo75]

It’s pretty sad I call it before it happen. AFL is corrupt but for my mental health I calmed down.

It won’t be the last time the maggots assist the Blues.

 

[mike91]

Not just late in the game, but in general Treacys hands are massively dissapointing. There's a reason clubs put a lesser and shorter defender on him

 

[MadMundy]

As much as I hate Carlton and the influence the umpires had in the end, the players did s**t the bed in the final minutes, lots of dumb decisions.

We could have easily been 3 or so goals up in the final quarter but too many misses and failed opportunities, boys need to take a look at how much they panic in those sorts of situations, massively cost us the game.

 

[FreoRicci]

As much as I hate Carlton and the influence the umpires had in the end, the players did s**t the bed in the final minutes, lots of dumb decisions.

Knew it wasn’t over as soon as Walters wanted to hurry the kick to Treacy. Calm down. Kick back, control the ball, get the stoppages going and waste the clock.
What did SonSon do? Took too long to kick to Treacy and turnover.

 

[Kram]

Annoying felt like smashing the TV but I think we are going OK. Coaching I don't mind the way we played that, weren't expected to win just needed to execute better when it mattered. Slow it down and take time off the clock late.. Players we have added after loses look good.

 

[Retzlaff]

We are getting Darcy back

Won’t make our team any better according the media. Probably come back via Peel

Basically if they're crapping on that the blues can go all the way, so can we.

Not with this game plan.

 

[FreoRicci]

Amiss missing to put the club up 15 points allowed Carlton a sniff. Limited chances, mean he has to make those

 

[Sully90]

You're missing the point. We had more than enough opportunity to win that game on our own terms, but we left the door open as we always do. I'm not talking about the game plan mind you, but the absolute brain fades that we seem to get time and time again in our forward 50.

 

[DockerDerek]

Carlton rolled the dice in the last few minutes and came up trumps.

Happy with the effort from Freo. Lacked some composure at the finish.

As much as it’s nice to have someone else to blame, I think it’s more on us than the umps.
