Mega Thread Non-Freo AFL Discussion 2023

[Taylor]

Freo has a max of 24 more possible wins this season. Realistically if we are to win a flag then we need to be beating the best teams anyway, slinking into the finals beating up on non finals sides will happen but those sides don't progress far in the finals.

So if we can win the next 24, that will be fine. 23 rounds + 3 finals, minus two played.

Essendon against an interstate team. Interstate team is playing better, has more inside 50's, more shots on goal but they waste their opportunities and will probably lose the game. Shades of freo from 2 years ago

Ok you’ve obviously taken a nasty tumble off the treadmaster

Into the HIA protocol

 

[MrDanggazz]

Essendon and Gold Coast put on a ripping high-skilled contest and both teams outscored us without any stars in their forward lines, JL should rightfully so be under some intense pressure.

Dew will be sacked by mid year

 

[Lach72]

Good to see Lachie Weller back out there

 

[Lach72]

Hogan has started well, except for bad shots in goal

Pretty damming graphic there when taking that set shot.

6.16 from 40 out on a slight angle.

 

[Chief Brody]

Oh great Eagles win to top off a shit weekend of footy

 

[FreoRicci]

Long week coming up. If the players don’t fire up after the last fortnight, that may be seriously it for some.

 

[Belnakor]

Dew will be sacked by mid year

Was picked as coach because the media talked him up. Never got the hype. He went for a number of other jobs and didn’t get them - always a bad sign for a coach.

 

[Harry Reems]

The Eagles have to be favourites in the derby now.

 

[Belnakor]

Oh great Eagles win to top off a s**t weekend of footy

Tbh I picked the eagles.

For the first half last week you’d have put your house on gws winning the spoon. They were diabolical.

Then the heat kicked in and Adelaide absolutely stopped. Just freak conditions.

Also it was hot enough both teams were going to struggle this week.

 

[King Tenz]

10 goals by the Eagles, not even half time yet. Meanwhile we can barely put 10 goals up in a full game.

 

[largebus]

Look everyone, a team that takes calculated risks and has a functional forward line.

 

[King Tenz]

They're gonna beat us next week, aren't they?

 

[Schauermann]

Looks like an interesting season already.

Having said that: When does next season start?

 

[MadMundy]

So much for having a chance next week.

 

[Jeba]

Turned tv on just to see that bald maggot gift them there tenth goal, switched it off. Free kicks in front of goals come so easy for some teams.

Am watching it and it's absolutely crazy, fast ball movement and leading forwards equals goals?! Anybody seen this before? Bloody foreign concept that

 

[StingBitten]

Unfortunately yes.

It helps when your forwards can actually hold a mark.

 

[Sweetback]

It’d be nice to feel more confident going into next week’s game

 

[tonygeeks]

So fellow unlucky victims of this crap club where does this week rank in the “ shit week to be a Freo fan “ list of 1500+ weeks of this long running comedy

Top 10 ?

Top 5 ?

Its gonna be a long year
