Game Day Rd 3 - Freo vs Toast

[Tbonefreo]

If it's a repeat of the first 2 weeks we have been found out. Just hard to watch

 

[Tbonefreo]

In saying that freo by 6 goals.

Schultz the winner of the medal with 4 goals.

 

[Cayman Docker]

Majority of our problems stem from the midfield group, awful rucking, soft and ineffective in the contest and slow and fumbly ball movement around the ground. If we can get back to winning clearances more often than not we will be fine, but otherwise , to the vent thread!

How big were Mundy’s shoes, he’s sorely missed right now, but new shoes Johnno shall make!

 

[go_the_dockers]

Terror is the right word, I am ******* terrified for this afternoon

Add Adelaide next week, and we could easily be 0-4.

We will need to score next week, and find a way to stop the grows small forwards

 

[MadMundy]

A win today won't be enough to calm the doubters, we need to win and win big if they want to shut people up. 70+ point win at least. Not going to happen, but that's what we need to make people feel even a little bit better.

70 point win?We have Only managed to kick just over 70 last week and less than that the week before so that would be great

 

[Dirty_banchez]

I am expecting a big performance from our mids today. Swaggy or Serong for the medal.

 

[Perfect Purple]

When a Coach says to his debutante that “ he hopes to see him bring speed and a bit of mongrel to the game today” you know that there are going to be some big changes to the game plan. I am confident we will not see the apathy we have seen in the last two games where we looked like a losing side almost from the first bounce.

This will not be the case today and it will be a faster and more impactful game. We will win.

Get on board people.

 

[kingswood71]

I think we can win. Cant see us serving up 3 bad games in a row. Hopefully things click today.
Our defense should keep them to 12 goals or less, so will come down to if our mids and our forwards can link up enough to kick 12+.
Good luck to young Johnson and heres hoping its a long Freo career!
Amiss to kick 3, Tabs to kick 3. Son Son to kick 3.
Us by 14 points...And a kick start to our season....

 

[sumavich]

We got to win the midfield to have any chance, haven't so far.
I think Kelly runs amuck, and we lose by a couple.
They'll shark our ruck taps

 

[Bicco]

My U11's won this morning. Will be interesting to see how a team of players without skill go this afternoon.
Jokes aside, this is a must win. Wouldn't want to be in Jlo's shoes should we lose. Can't say I really know the WC team, but regardless we must get our 1st win today. I don't see us having the off field leadership to turn things around from this point should we lose.
But Jackson will play a blinder, take 15 marks and win the RGM after we win by 30 points.

 

[Taylor]

I'd like to start with Jackson lined up beside Kelly, the tap goes towards them, Jackson bodies Tim off the ball and then breaks forward with a long kick to a Taberner mark, set shot and goal.

 

[sumavich]

That's a good idea Taylor, coz Kelly will be the danger

 

[mattis117]

I'd like to start with Jackson lined up beside Kelly, the tap goes towards them, Jackson bodies Tim off the ball and then breaks forward with a long kick to a Taberner mark, set shot and goal.

A Taberner goal in the first 30s would set us up for a great day

 

[Dump Truck]

Two weeks ago, if someone told me the mood around freo fans would be what it currently is leading to the derby I'd have thought we'd completely bottled the season so far. And we have.
No Mas.
This will get our season back on track.

 

[muzzington]

I like to think of myself as sensible, even-handed and with an eye to the future. That said, if the team lose today they should commit seppuku.

 

[Deathly]

70 point win?We have Only managed to kick just over 70 last week and less than that the week before so that would be great

I'm happy with any kind of win if it means not having to put up with the absolute garbage that will be coming out of the media here if we lost to Eagles.

 

[noise36]

That’s what the coaches have been selling, probably because effort at contests is something players can control,but our movement from halfback has been poor too. If we are a serious team that’s just not good enough.

Because the half backs have PTSD about how much its being lost in the contest and coming back.

 

[Ge3ks]

Freo by plenty. Season back on track.

 

[serial_thrilla]

How serious is the pressure on Longy if you lose?

St Kilda will be cheering for us. A loss could mean a few secret meetings with Ross Lyon for 2024...

 

[WilloTree]

Just need a win.

Don't care the margin.

 

[Fat Nyfe]

Not looking forward to a Freo game for the first time in ages. $2.80 for WC is money for jam though

Lol the coach said to his debutant, “you’re in the vest”. Hard to bring speed and mongrel when you’re sitting on the bench for 3 quarters.

 

[DeanS]

5.12 to 5.10. We win by 2 points.

 

[StingBitten]

If we win, then perhaps we might be back on the right track.

If we lose, the gears will be in place for seismic change at the club - which may trigger a long-term net positive for the club.

It's win-win folks!
