Autopsy Positives and Negatives vs Fremantle

[Boohemian]

How many Freo supporters do you think we converted with those glorious gold wings?

 

[ioppolo]

I only saw the last quarter, but they replayed some of Freo's misses. Horrendous is being kind. All well and good that we won by five goals, but if they kick those it's a very different story. Other teams won't be so generous. Still sceptical with our side all things considered.

 

[Eagleboy68]

Positive. We won and Kennedy Duggan Hurn

Negative. Masten, priddis, Cripps can all gtfo.

 

[La Dolce Vita]

If you say so mate, not particularly mad about it beyond nick suban's existence, thought it was shit enough on both sides that neither team could take much out of it. Especially for a team ostensibly pushing for a flag.

its a pity all those good young players were absent today..their replacements look god awful

well done on the 5 goals today

 

[The Falcon Strike]

Negative. - that was a bloody poor game
Of football

We were ordinary - freo just terrible

 

[CM9000]

In all seriousness I'm very happy that Duggan has started playing well. What I'd like to see is Nelson go into the middle and Cole into the backline. Or else play Cole on the wing, I think he'd do pretty well in that role if his fitness is up to it.

I agree, but I expected you to be a bit more one-eyed then that Godfather.

I didn't say that Cole isn't the greatest player to wear the wings since Cousins (he is). I just thought it was so obvious that there was no need to mention it in every post.

God we lacked speed in the midfield should have been a lot closer. For the love of god drop Priddis what are you scared of?

Positives:
+ Darling's coming back in force.
+ JK got through unscathed and played well.
+ Hurn had a fantastic game.
+ Mitchell played well
+ Liam Duggan is the GOAT
+ Nelson played well
+ LeCras played well
+ Sheppard was impressive
+ Gov was a bit hot and cold, but overall, I thought he had a good game.
+ We won without Cole (proof we play better without him, Godfather32)
+ Redden played fantastically for an emergency
+ Sheed was pretty good.
+ Vardy played well.
+ An awful scrappy affair for the first 2 and a half quarters, but we turned it on in the end.

Negatives:
- Priddis, while he was alright, still needs to be dropped IMO.
- Our midfield is one selection away from making us a top 4 team, the MC just needs to realise this.
- We played pretty awful today for a majority of the game.

You think 13 of our players played well yet we still turned in that pathetic performance?

Jesus, I'm more concerned about this team than I already was.

Can I report you for posting on our board? Isn't that generally what happens on yours? #confuzzled #wontreportyoubro

To be fair you quoted a post of his in here so it's reasonable he stuck his nose in with a response

 

[lewigie]

We played excellent for the first quarter and a lot of the second, then turned to absolute garbage for the rest of the game and Freo really should have been a lot closer if they didn't miss so many goals straight in front. And the turnovers from both teams.. it was like two bottom 6 teams were playing each other.

Duggan finding his role in the team is bloody fantastic though. Really hope he is a great player for us.

Look at the body language when he says we played well. Obviously making up BS for the camera.

You quoted his post, it appears in his notifications, of course when TMcN clicks on it he would follow it here.

Stop being a dick about it.

It was a bad performance, but I like to look for the positives rather then the negatives in a win.

Honestly the bit about Cole? We would have been better off with him and Duggan up the ground. We can just beat a shit team like Freo but if we want to be serious piss off Priddis and let's get some run

 

[Brunswick Trap King]

The positive was that West Coast was blessed with Fremantle's inaccuracy and made the most of it.

If 13 players played well, I am very concerned.

 

[Monocle]

Now I know that I have a sick mind .

But I loved the cross to the Fremantle Coaching Box to show Ross The Boss knocking his bottle of Coke over Rocks paper work.
The expression on Rock's face was priceless

Sorry responded to the wrong post

Wouldn't you love it if he was honest.

"Yeah, we were totally shit and slow for the last half, and I have NO ****ing idea how to address it!"

 

[bUCKET__]

+ a few champion defenders, honestly glad all of our first round midfielders end up as servicable half-backs
+ errr

- Yeo out ****ed with my SC
- Masten didn't bite Suban again, which means he is still a miniscule chance of not getting dropped next week. Lack of flesh wounds for Suban a real negative for both teams really.
