Review Rd 1 Review - !?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? (Freo Beat Adelaide by a Point - Praise be to ChapGod)

[wayToGo_]

I always go and do some gardening for like 5 minutes before succumbing to giving these rascals another chance.

Lucky. I'm legally not allowed near sharp implements like secateurs during football games.

Would be great to have midfield depth who can give some presence forward. Walters or yore kind of thing. Switkowski provided some.

 

[cardamon]

Man im 26 and not to pump myself up but i'm in ripping nick, frequent exercise, eats right, doesnt drink, wakes with the sunrise etc

I don't know if i can keep watching footy

I shouldn't be able to feel my blood pressure at this age

My housemates have to put up with weekly screaming

I'm taking myself on a nice gentle walk to destress but we need to start winning some cruisy games

+
First half
Im drunk
Chappys spoil

-
Umpires
Umpires guidedogs- werent they taught that 2 barks is a free kick, 1 is no freekick
We need to avoid 3rd quarter brainfades no matter the rubbish umpires.
Our accuracy for goal
Banfields miss 2nd quarter

 

[BStaff17]

We're in the 8 people!

We will be 9th at end of round

Additional thoughts

• I've supported Henry as much as anyone but you cant excuse that game, time for an extended stint at Peel. Noddy/ Erasmus in
• Harder to know what to do with Walters, we cant keep carrying him playing like that
• That was the biggest load of corrupt bullshit umpiring I have ever seen. In the space of 10 seconds the same scenario would lead to play on for us, but free kick for Adelaide, and it happened about 10 times in the 3rd quarter alone.
• Anyone thinking we werent going to miss Cerra was kidding themselves. Our midfield looks VERY shallow.
• Chappy was invisible the whole game until the last when he was massive.
• Schultz and Switta are now miles ahead of Walters
• Banfield is not going to take us anywhere
• Clark looks like being very good offensively but there was some serious laspses defensively that cost goals
• Speaking of lapses causing goals, what the **** was that from Young
• AB, Logue and Serong where absolutely massive. Logue felt like the only defender actually winning contests and was the sole reason the 3rd wasnt worse
• I cant do another year of this goal kicking, I just cant
• We arent playing finals with how we played today but there was some excellent passages of play in every quarter bar the 3rd

Ahhh dear ImperialPurple how is the ticker

Honestly I'm pretty filthy about that game and thought the result flattered us greatly etc. etc. <insert pessimistic diatribe>.

As a scientist though, I can now officially confirm the existence of either Jesus or "The Force" as I have no other explanation how Chapman's spoil/shot on goal didn't go through

I'm willing to give him a bit more time but he doesn't look like he is going to make it at this stage. He does good things but does not get anywhere near enough of it.

How can we be 9th - 8 teams will lose, we WON!!!!!

 

[Square Peg]

F**k me Freo, that's another few years off my life you bastards.

That was one of the most clutch plays in Freo history from Chapman there.

Added bonus is we can now highlight how badly those cheating f**king umpires tried to destroy us without it sounding like we're using it to excuse a loss. That was one of the most one-sided games I've ever seen from the umpires.

They're not cheats in the true sense of the word, they're just utterly incompetent and part of that incompetence is an inability to block out a one sided home crowd and your own preconceptions

 

[longsuffreosupp]

Apart from the dodgy umpiring and bad kicking, too many people (especially forward of centre) going missing in the second half. Lucky Switta and Shooter kicked into gear in those last few minutes.

 

[Deveraux]

I don;t care what he did for the whole match. a sub 10 gamer at 82-83 decides to punch the ball in instead of out... absolutely brilliant....

I was going to call you negative but I went to the bottle shop after serongs miss. Got some beer and wine and checked the score. 6 points down. Got home and we were in front.

Bloody freo

 

[Kapow!!!]

So who turned it off during the fourth quarter? I admit I did, just followed it online after that.

A pleasant surprise I have not had in a long time.

Was at The Royal Exchange in Toowong with some Freo supporting mates. By the end I was just exasperated and exhausted. I had no emotions, I had nothing...I was cooked. I couldn't be excited other than hi-five and hug: I'd literally used all emotions possible in the human experience and discovered 4 ones during the game

The disappearance of Luke Ryan...

Just a bad game. Pretty much every defender this round has had a bad game. Seems to be the theme for round 1 with how fast the games have been played.

 

[FD2646]

Honestly how does Eleni get a role each week, is it just because she is female? There can’t be any other reason.

I was criticised for saying there are 1000 umpires better than her. I stand corrected, there are likely 10,000 umpires better than her!

Henry, Walters, banfield need to go back to peel
