Review Fremantle Get Done By Richmond by 15 Points

[FreoRicci]

Loss to North and Richmond at home. Home has to be a fortress. That’s shit.

 

[ImperialPurple]

As others have said - it was that first 10mins where we lost it. We owned that first part of the first quarter and had nothing to show for it. I said to my wife - this is going to kill us. If you can’t score when you have all the play then it’s going to bite you on the arse. Nek minnut we’re 3 goals down. I had to take a ‘leisurely stroll’ around the house to recalibrate at quarter time. Game starts at quarter time - we win. We convert early - we win. Disappointing all round.

 

[Stronzo]

Too many passengers, simple as that.

Frederick, Banfield, Clarke, Schultz, Switkowski, useless Henry, O’Driscoll, and for most of the game Fyfe.

I choose to believe we'll sort this out over time. I think its a better problem to have than not being able to win on the road (unless you are an MCG tennant).

It was very 2015 Lyon like. And the way Richmond piled on goals was very much like that round 10 game of 2015.

Oh so much this.
Absolutely.

Way too cute. Who cares if Reidy isn’t ready. Play him. He’s a decoy. Keeps the structure

Henry for JOM. Get. The. *. Out.
Erasmus and MJ can play together. Johnson proved he’s no slouch.

These kind of comments annoy me; you can't say the result would be different based on what didn't happen.
We can only analyse what did happen and learn from it.

Nank would likely monster Reidy anyway.

 

[mattis117]

I'm like whatever. Well played Richmond. I am excited to see a great team emerging. We're coming.

We needed a chopout in the ruck so Treacy could play forward full time. Who knows whether Reidy would have been a liability or not, but we lost and it would probably have been better for everyone if we'd retained our structure.

Fug that cant. Hated hearing him. Was just bad!

Sorry to intrude but I agree with you 100%. Was nice not having to listen to him for 3 years.

Serious question, does anyone in WA other than rusted on 7 News viewers, Channel 7 and The West actually like the guy? Seems like 95% of the state (and footy watchers around the country) can’t stand the bloke, and yet they promote him as this beloved commentator. Although I reckon they’ll try and promote this as an excuse to bring him back full time

Yeah I don't think it is a big deal.

Everyone that is not Port and the Pies is flakey as ****, so we'll have opportunities over the last 11 games if we're good enough.

If we're not we'll get a better draw (in theory) for next year.

 

[FreoGirl]

Johnson is our future

 

[Stronzo]

The umps got the Hughes point correct as well. You can see the padding move on the up the ground camera angle.

 

[Sweetback]

4.0 Jye Amiss.

Richmond only lost to port by 7

I don’t care too much about the loss. Obviously it ****s our chances of playing finals hugely, but in terms of the way we played and the way we lost it’s not like early in the year. Darcy out messed up our structure hugely.

 

[Docker82]

I still can’t get my head around why teams who come off a Bye can’t play each other, and why it’s split three weeks?

Can’t answer your first question. It’s like AFL don’t give a **** it creates an uneven fixture.

Why it split over three weeks (four this year actually)? That’s easy to answer - more games in prime slots so extra tv money.

thanks for some perspective

 

[MadMundy]

This is the stupidest s**t I’ve ever read

Can't say I don't try can ya, if I'm gonna melt might as well make it stupid or entertaining.

When has it ever been for us? Even when we were good we coughed up losses to average teams at home. Our best years were marked by impressive away wins to make up for the fact we’ve never made Subi or Optus our fortress.

 

[Van_Dyke]

Game was lost because the players didn't care, you could see it, a clear lack of effort, no urgency to get to the ball, not bothered about losing contests.



We're back to where we wear, we don't care about winning, we're fine just coasting as long as we get paid at the end of the week. It's awful to see.



You can whine about how if we had (insert player) in the team instead of Henry we would have played better and won, it doesn't matter whether we had prime Pavlich in that team, we weren't winning

g'day browny, thanks for joining us

We were hard to beat at Subi in the early Lyon years IMO

 

[wakojako]

Our handball game got taken away from us and we didn't move it fast enough. They also moved it very efficiently from half back. Despite this we still managed to give it a crack which is very impressive.

 

[MadMundy]

g'day browny, thanks for joining us

Didn't even need to get as hit in the head as much as he did either, just been that way aye

 

[Van_Dyke]

So do we just not have goal post cams in WA?

I was very close to that Hughes shot and it looked clearly a goal.

Credit to Broad he sold it well.

sit on the 2nd level right behind those goals, i went up in celebration halfway through so i fully accept that i am not a reliable judge on this, but i thought it was a goal.

it's probably better to win games at the MCG...
