Game Day Rd 17 - Freo vs Carlton @ Optus

[King Tenz]

Alright Logan.

What a great show, I miss it everyday.

 

[Randomizor]

He’s probably not even a member

Are you suggesting supporters than don’t have a membership aren’t real supporters? Disgusting view

 

[Sweetback]

I didn’t want to play finals anyway

 

[hoss]

All starts in the middle...

Except a lot of their goals seem to be starting off the half back line. We don't have any forwards that tackle or chase.

How the **** didn't Amiss get a free earlier?

 

[Scham]

Hamling for Treacy
Wagner for Switta
Worner for Fred
Wilson sub

Our best Peel players couldn't be any worse than our 3 worst AFL players and deserve a go.

 

[Purple Jesus]

Are you happy Freo finishing bottom 6 this season?

Oh we still have pick 6 don't we? Oh wait, that goes to Melbourne demons. LoL

Point is I really want Freo to make finals.

Again.... You said flag or bust. So it's gonna be a bust again I think

If you’ll recall, I was dead against the Jackson trade at the time. Still think we paid too much.

 

[mike91]

Brayshaw with 20 disposals for 90m gained. He's honestly been sh*t house this season

 

[FreoGirl]

Agreed. It's probably more about trying to somehow place increased importance on success in other sports/leagues I guess to find meaning but yeah, this one is takeb (with a bottomless pit of misery but it's my bloody team anyway)

Like Bison’s century

 

[MadMac]

I’m generally not superstitious but damn, sometimes I think this club is cursed ala Socceroos.

 

[CakeEater]

Yeah this is disgraceful. I dunno if the bloke at the top is no good or he just needs more quality coaching structure around him but the first losing like this with the players on the park something is wrong somewhere. And the 1st quarter performance thing is just ridiculous.

Its probably abit of column a and a bit of column b.

JL is one of those coaches who are good assitants but not good HC.

Hes also lost key coaches and the replacements arent there

Banfield gets another shot

 

[Johnny Dalmas]

It won't be, he won't get sacked this year.

Maybe if the Eagles did us by 10 goals.

He should be put on notice. Today we are very very uncompetitive. Given the talent on the park, it is, well, diabolical.

The worst thing about today? When they got on top early (well and truly on top) we

Did. Not. Fire. A. Shot.

There was no comeback. Not from the players and not from the coaches box.

Just passive and mediocre.

 

[noise36]

Out of the middle , 5 Carlton players around 1 Freo player on the ground getting tackled , no other Freo players in sight anywhere near it...yikes.

You reckon we can get John Safran to organise to get the curse lifted?

True. But I think the slow starts to games when mids getting beaten put pressure all over the ground until it capitulates

 

[vidwhal]

Who said anything about flag contenders?
We are going to finish 15th. Bottom 4.
There will be 14 better teams than us in an 18 team league with two of the worst sides of all time in it (one of which beat us).
It’s an abomination of a season and calling it anything else would be deluded

I'm referring to the club's own publicised timeline to win a flag by 2025, so it's the club admin coming up with it. However you process that info up to you

I never thought we'd do it by then. Most flag winners or dynasties are teams that are usually older and matured.

Our boys have been up watching The Ashes

 

[Freomaniac]

tl;dw: We all consume this as a narrative. We tolerate in order for the payoff to have meaning. Without payoff, it's just extended misery. You deserve to be laughed out of any room you utter that in

Are you happy with freos finals history? 8 years of finals from 29 years?

Also... Only time Freo made back to back finals was 2012-15.

They say teams have their ups an downs. Are you happy with freos performance today?

 

[FreoGirl]

Bring back Dale Alcock

 

[MadMundy]

We can call for the coach to be sacked all we like, the club don't have the balls to do it. We don't have men running the club, we have scared little boys who don't know what the **** they're doing.

 

[noise36]

In like 30 seconds, Young gets the ball, turns it over by foot, Clark gets the ball and turns it over by foot, these are our line breaking attacking defenders who are supposed to be launching an effective offense.

It’s like they’re Warner facing up to Broad.

Not to mention this is like the 7th year of our rebuild?

 

[mike91]

2/3 quarters without a goal.

Colour me surprised, I genuinely think half this board aren't even remotely surprised
