We’ll eclipse the Eagles 81 point loss this round…. ****ing sad!

 

[King Tenz]

Bring back Dale Alcock

Bring back the guys that got us Ross Lyon in the first place. We need someone with that kind of balls to do something similar to JL.

Have zero confidence we're gonna see any real changes this off season.

It’s so hard being a Docker supporter

 

[Docker82]

Wish someone would take Cripps out. About the only positive thing that come out of this game.

To early to start the autopsy thread?

 

[Footskill]

Men playing against boys. Can't make excuses about our youth, but that is what happens. Up against bigger, hard, seasoned bodies lol..

Cerra BOG for blues yet again

I've been watching Walker closely , 1 kick and he kicked out on the full , team mates won't pass to him as he is just wanting a cheap 15m kick . He'
s a wafl player

He is a wafl player one week out of three. I think he needs to be given a stint in the wafl occasionally. It is too demanding for him atm.

 

[King Tenz]

2/3 quarters without a goal.

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

It's Ross Lyon like in our ability to not score, and yes, I'm not surprised at all.

 

[FreoRicci]

JOM trying to play Fyfes forward/mid role is disgusting

Banfield, Sturt, Kuek. Plenty of players can just play the third forward.

 

[Fat Nyfe]

Longmuir is cooked, not the guy to do it.

Cooked isn’t quite right. He’s undercooked if anything.
He’s like flavourless, bland, boiled chicken

For the first time this season I switched it off at HT.
This is not a serious football club.

 

[Dockers v Channel7West]

Hopefully snow white will stop going with so many small forwards.
Out of finals race now.
Find or cultivate from one of our overstocked half backs a mid sized forward who can stand their ground in a marking contest

 

[Wabjub]

****ing cut the losses and ****ing trade Henry. Least influential player even in career best form disposal wise. 8 i50s over three games with 80+ possessions (majority uncontested) as a winger. And 7 tackles in total over his last 3 games. So he isn't doing shit going forward or stopping shit going back.

No heart (something like .7 one percenters a game this season), won't put his body on the line, doesn't even actually want to run, shit ****ing kick.

Trade him he's had enough time.

 

[Footskill]

What's the difference between pre bye form and post..our mids not getting manhandled

 

[Randomizor]

It's Ross Lyon like in our ability to not score, and yes, I'm not surprised at all.

We replaced a defensive-minded coach with a defence coach. Shouldn’t really be surprised.

 

[FreoRicci]

Its depressing because we need changes yet have nothing significant at the level below

Have a full list to choose from. Why have a list if it’s not being used.

Switkowski, Schulz, Frederick, JOM, Hughes, Johnson all can be dropped.

 

[s_wd6]

One of the worst games I’ve seen in a long long time. Even the giants game wasn’t this bad.

 

[se17enteen]

Fuc.k me there is still another quarter.

Not a serious club and never have been. Our club is the definition of mid.

Will probably make the All Australian squad and win their b&f. He's had a damn fine season

 

[Kapow!!!]

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?

That's a lot of meaningless rhetoric. Again, if it ends in a flag at some time it would make it all worth it. Something to rewatch over and over, a triumph, an apotheosis to give all previous seasons context and purpose. The reward for the faith.

Finals are but a mild comfort/nicotine hit in between seasons. Can tide you over if you haven't been close for a while but after a few in a row without success you develop a tolerance and it's no longer enough. I, personally, would take the next 29 years without finals if it guaranteed the 30th ended in a flag.

 

[FUS_RO_DAH]

Okay, what wacky positional changes do we want for the last quarter?

Young centre bounce mid bare minimum please.

**** it, throw in Switta, Freddy and Walters. Make it interesting
