Hawthorn v Fremantle, 2013 AFL Grand Final

[DangerHere]

Hawthorn by 7 goals.

Freo are shit !

 

[strauchanie59]

Pearce is having a shocker, Fyfe would be leading the Norm Smith atm, keeping Freo in it with Mundy and Barlow. Hawthorn have once again bought their own umpires, HTB interpretation needs looking at over the pre-season.

I'm sober. The only people I'm mad at are bloody Geelong.

 

[SSSSSS]

It's the ones that aren't paying, so you can't look at the count. e.g. Hawthorn players are landing in the back of Freo players when they tackle them, but they aren't being called. Oh well, if you can get away with it, why not.

The 50 to Buddy is the one that I'll concede was odd. The HTB for both sides have been pretty fair. I ****ing hate the slide rule though. What is Hale supposed to do? Squib it? This isn't Carlton this is Hawthorn we're better than that.

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Should have set the tone at the opening bounce and gone physical like they did against Geelong. Flat start without intent and its carried on.

 

[PP34]

No, it will just mean that Hawthorn have choked big time.

It's 23 points not 50.

 

[TheMcGrathMan]

So apparently Channel 7 commentary was wrong when they said only 3 times before had a team gone goalless in the first quarter of a GF. They said the Blues in '70 and '79 against the Pies, and Brisbane against the Pies in 2002, but Saints also did it in the GF replay in 2010. All against the Pies, for a 3 wins 1 loss record!

So today is the 5th time a team has gone goalless in the first goalless and the first time that it was not against Collingwood.

Can anyone tell me if jarrod roughead is playing?

What about Fremantle?

 

[Tassie27]

Freo players need a stiff drink at half time, just to settle their nerves.

 

[ChampRevesby]

What boring game. Skills are average.

 

[Jimthegreat]

Well that half was choking of the absolute highest order. For as sh1thouse as they've played Freo should only be a couple down but they continue to sh1t themselves in front of goal.

They're close enough is they can actually settle.

 

[SpeciousArgument]

Port had over double what Freo has now.

yeah, and geelong had 11.13

 

[maryjames]

It would be an absolute pisser of Freo actually won this.

 

[CasuallyDressed]

35 to 12 at half time is similar to the grand finals I play in AFL Live.

 

[bresker]

I'm quite enjoying it. Lake has Pavlich crapping himself and nothing beats a frustrated Rugby Lyon.

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

Fyfe best on

Rubbish. He's cracking in but has flubbed his chances to make an impact on the scoreboard.

Hopefully Ross Lyon is never let near another GF.

 

[thecatattack]

Port had 4.3-27 ok the first half of the 2007 GF.

Freo has 1.6-12.

 

[Mick98]

God I hate Coles ads

We have to eat bro

 

[Mr Meeseeks]

The meltdowns provided by non-Freo fans in this thread is outstanding.

OUTSTANDING!

 

[Tulip]

Dockers are playing like the Dees

 

[Thurlow2Mackie]

EVERYONE SHUT UP AND LEAVE MY FREO ALONE!

Not exactly the most entertaining Grand Final. It is actually pretty close in most of the key stats. The big difference is the Hawks are doing the basic things better. Fremantle's disposal efficiency has been terrible, and players are dropping marks when all alone, thus not allowing themselves to control possession, and lets not start with kicking for goal. Hawks in control without dominating, it is Fremantle playing terrible just as much.

 

[maryjames]

Worse grand final than 2007.

At least cats created Lolz this is another level

 

[Tas]

I'm sober. The only people I'm mad at are bloody Geelong.

Playing guys like Christensen and Varcoe cost Geelong. Too many short people who have no impact. Well, positive impact.
