Review Fremantle Contest Another Game In South Australia

Also FFS Serong. Learn how to kick running into an open goal.

Been training with banfield

Erasmus is never a sub.
JOM played 3 games in a row as sub, then plays one on the field, and can’t last the full match? That’s pathetic

 

[thistimeforsure]

Can’t play Sonny anymore and we have nobody to replace him

Can’t knock the Boys efforts though

Realistically that’s all I wanted after last year’s debacle

We need to be winning these games if we want to play finals. Last week really should have taught us something it was almost the exact same scenario. Carlton's 4 wins apart from North have been by a combined 16 points.

Annnd? Were only 1 win behind them..

 

[FreoGirl]

Not that it was a total gimme, but Serong missing that shot at the end kind of sums up his finishing ability right now.
That’s probably a W if he sinks that.

Pressure - we have an entire season to work on it

If we play like this all year we’ll make finals don’t worry about that.

Port are very very tough to beat at home. They won 17 games last year

Mate he isn’t a no1 ruck and he was absolutely cooked by the 4th quarter. He can’t play a full game against a gorilla ruck and then have us expecting him to impact in the last quarter.

I mean that's obvious, but it doesn't change that he was dogshit today. I still don't understand his rationale for refusing to kick i50 and always handballing to the bloke with 5 guys around him.

I’ve only seen the last few minutes…but we led a premiership contender for the whole game again.
Worth something surely? Developing nicely

Exactly! With Darcy in the team we win this game. Jackson gets worn down playing first ruck.

Yes we need to improve. And we are. And we will. We just played Carlton and Port away. Both teams that the bookies and most pundits had us losing to by 4+ goals. And we were in the game in the last minute of both!

We are on track for a bloody good season.

Treacy had a breakout game. A game that puts him in with the upper echelon of forwards. Contested work. Pack marks. Goals. Field kicking. My gosh what a player he is becoming before our eyes. What a year to support this club!! PUMPED!

 

[BettercallSaul]

We make too many little errors at the moment to win these games. Hand ball to someone two feet away with rocket handballs, Banfield having two shots on goal for not even a point, too often lacking awareness and getting caught holding the ball. Just not clinical enough.

 

[james haish]

As a positive Josh Treacy is very good, and deserves far more plaudits than he gets. Given he's shared the ruck load all year, I'd have him our best forward by miles.

 

[Lach72]

Commentators already playing down the Butters hit. campaigners. Should get weeks for that.

I can’t wait for the “apology” from the AFL on this one

 

[Minz]

Well I didn't expect to feel like we could have been unbeaten to this part of the season.

We've improved a lot. If we have put some class ahead of the ball that would be great.

Should have been undefeated really. But for a bit of composure in the forward line…

 

[imperial_oz]

That hit on Banfield was…something

Apparently not.

agree - there was a huge possibility we would get flogged

the odds for us to beat Port were the same as for WCEs to beat Richmond

 

[Randomizor]

Son Son has had no impact recently, but we need him to do something spectacular in the derby

Yeah give him that chance against those spuds to build some confidence, but if he gets 5 disposals again he can go play WAFL for a bit

 

[Andy Brennan]

Lyon has been gone for years and we're still playing rossball. Don't get too excited guys we ain't playing finals. Teams will just keep letting us play like turtles and beating us at the death. Shameful coaching and performance 2 weeks in a row. **** this team

 

[Ge3ks]

F”ck f”ck f”ckity f”ck

Great post. Agree with everything you said.

 

[Cameron_K]

That hit on Banfield was…something

Going for the ball they said....

 

[Serongadongdong]

Robbed!

 

[FreoGirl]

Given the negative commentary here, we must’ve done something right to lead them all game

no kidding lol

 

[james haish]

Yet plenty on here say they don’t want MacDonald ( or any other experienced KPF )

Pffffffftttt

Keep your stupid picks to spend on another Erasmus

It's not out KPFs that are the problem, they are kicking most of our goals. We have nothing when the ball hits the ground, literally nothing.

 

[FreoGirl]

Robbed!

but it's Butters

 

[Purple Blitz]

Wow that was gut wrenchingly hard to watch. And take.

Twice in two weeks, at least (?) tonight we have ourselves to blame, and not the umpires.

Banfield been OK this season but torched us twice in the fourth quarter. Tabs shouldn't play for us again after a second week of nothing, I'm so done with him, does not want the ball. Switta right off tonight and this season.

Just so so so bad.

 

[theGav56]

It’s been 8 years. 8 YEARS since the start of our rebuild and we still have absolute 0 forward craft. Still playing the defensive game plan that is never ever going to win a grand final. Where even are we? What’s the point? Just spinning our wheels. We’ve been in the comp near 30 years. Embarrassing.

We're Hell bent on strangling the game. That's always going to be a nightmare for forwards.

Run from defence should be our strong attacking mode. Clark is fantastic.

Hopefully Chapman comes in and the coach has an epiphany.

 

[Demons09]

Erasmus lost us the game. Multiple times we were streaming forward in the 4th quarter and he got caught holding the ball because he doesn't understand when to kick the ball. He is not AFL level ready.

Nah you’re not going to win many games kicking nine goals two weeks in a row we didn’t shut the door.
