Review Freo dims the Suns by 20

[King Huskii]

I don't think it's interesting if Walker is fit, seems, very straightforward to me. Didn't think Wagner was that flash

Wagner was good

I was at the game and high up so could see all his running and transitioning

 

[Spirit Level]

Not really satisfied with that tbh, should've won by 40+

 

[King Huskii]

Fyfe had another poor game. When can the club drop him? Or is that not allowed.

 

[wakojako]

Sturt had a brilliant game today. Kicked 2.1, 7 score involvements and 15 pressure acts. We all knew he was capable of this so he just needs to be more consistent.

 

[FreoGirl]

Disagree, it's perfectly respectful discussion on the good and bad of the game. It's never all roses like its never all doodoo

Some supporters are NEVER happy. It’s sad to be miserable when we are sitting in 5th.
Of course we can improve, but we held it together and did what we had to do.

 

[Serongadongdong]

Jackson plays his best when he is running and hunting the ball not when leading up!

Would love to see him take Fyfe's position. He's a contested and ground ball beast and runs all days.

Bring Voss into the forward line

It’s brilliant to see him showing courage and much better skills.

 

[mike91]

Fyfe was pretty good

Opsm, seriously

Yes and he ran really well. Just made one blunder when Tracey smashed it to him and he didn't handball but chose to grubber kick forward and we missed a golden opportunity to kick a goal.

 

[Freomaniac]

Midfield goals anyone?

When Hayden Young was lining up for his 3rd shot on goal due to a free kick, he already had 23 dispoals and 2 goals.

He kicked his 3rd goal from 20 metres out from a set shot. he got 24 dispoals and 3 goals

 

[errant bounce]

The ground’s surface was a disgrace

I reckon it always looks pretty shit.

 

[King Huskii]

Fyfe was pretty good

He was terrible

Did you watch him play?

 

[YelloMit]

Hate to say it, but Fyfe is cooked.

 

[FreoGirl]

I reckon it always looks pretty shit.

You’re not wrong. I was concerned with all that rain we had. It’s forecast to rain next week, which is bad for WCE and Hawthorn.

 

[Alfonz]

adequate isn’t enough

You are expecting too much. This game was basically the same in general play as the Carlton v GC game. And the Blues are the clear 2nd favourites.

 

[bushchook]

Darcy deserves a lot more credit than he's getting so far. 20 disposals and 12 clearances is immense for a ruckman.

 

[gaskin]

Someone explain htb to me. They kicked at least 3 goals that I can recall direct from non-htb calls that were clear as day htb.

 

[FreoGirl]

For those who need cheering up

 

[FreoGirl]

Someone explain htb to me. They kicked at least 3 goals that I can recall direct from non-htb calls that were clear as day htb.

The marking decisions (mostly for GC) were off and some of the without the ball and chopping decisions were missed.

 

[Freomaniac]

I am just happy we won.

I am just gonna focus on the positives.

Hugh Davies had a solid debut game. He made a good account on himself. I have been wanting him to get a debut game for over a month. Nothing against Draper getting a good run of 10 or so games in the back line to fill Brennan cox

spot. I don mind rotations of various players. I wouldnt of complained of Draper and Davies getting 3-5 games each when cox is injured.

Reminded me of 2017-8 when Johnson and Hamling were our experienced tall defenders and Logue, Cox and Duman were rotated as the young 3rd tall defender.

Traecy having a good game up front. Always reliable on goal kicking.

fan. So glad he had a good game too.

Chapman was an important player in our backline. He help in freos structure.

had a good game. It sucked he got injured in the worst possible time.




Despite the slow start and conceding the 1st couple of goals, we were solid. 12.13.85 is sort of what I expected to kick on average.

 

[Righteo]

Suns are the worst travellers in history and didn't have a fwdline today. Sam Day was their spearhead... the epitome of "shit, that dude's still knocking about?" I'm glad people are happy with this win but next week is the true test. Without our skipper we're up against it, to say the least.

back in AA form is massive for us though, helps offset Fyfey dropping off a cliff BY the time finals rolls around Onions will be absolutely beasting it and should give us the edge in the middle no matter the opposition.

 

[MadMac]

Bit of a meh game. Bank the 4 points and move on.
I thought Young, Chapman and Treacy were our best. Sturt was pretty good, kicked 2 goals, had one brain fart where he clearly should have handballed to Amiss but otherwise very good game.
Darcy and Serong were good, Johnson and Clark did some good things.
Not sure with all the hate towards Aish, I thought he was decent enough. That intercept mark and then brilliant kick to Young in the middle resulted in a good team goal. That kick from 50 I honestly thought it wasn’t touched at all, probably should’ve been a goal to him.

Jackson and Fyfe were pretty ordinary and that’s being generous. I’m not sure if there’s anyone in the competition that gets pinged HTB more than Fyfe.
Personally I would drop both but I know that won’t happen.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Someone explain htb to me. They kicked at least 3 goals that I can recall direct from non-htb calls that were clear as day htb

Yeah, it was horseshit, completely ignored the recent changes and it killed us a few times. Terrible game all round from the jumps

Players get injured when the umpires don’t reward those tackles.

Yeah not sure everyone knew or maybe they had forgotten what he's capable of as there were plenty on here last year calling for his delisting.
