If you’re referring to the lions, my imagination doesn’t stretch that far
Looking at the oppo a little bit - they have a lot of damaging players and a good number of role-players. Plus, one of the smartest tactical coaches that is willing to turn it into a grind.
It looms as a clash of styles.

According to Freo fans, pressure is their kryptonite …. They are feeling hopeful as our pressure is poor

They're also in a precarious position on the ladder and will come to play highly motivated.

Back on topic 
Not sure how they are assessing that. Maybe someone has access to Champion Data numbers.
Our last month would be up and down depending on which quarter we decide to turn it on...
Overall, we are ranked 2nd for tackles, they are 15th.
We are 5th for contested possessions, they are 16th.
Yet they are 2nd for clearances and we are 11th.

I don't know about other Cowboys supporters, but that game is a big reason the Tigers sitting at the bottom of the table indefinitely is fine by me.
I still have nightmares about that flick pass.

I actually replied to that post asking why he thought pressure wasn’t what we were good at.
Personally think we only play well when our pressure is on, pretty much our game plan.

Happiest sports moment in my life
Agreed - As good as Thomas has been I’d have Muff ahead of him at this point in that small forward role.

I think that he's just getting tired after a full year. Hasn't missed a game to date (1 as sub & 3 subbed off, though). Small in stature but big in heart, he's put in each and every week, but surely that takes a toll on him.

Yeah I love him, but the more I think about it, the more I reckon he'll be the sub against Freo. Assuming that Cogs comes in.

There's something special about McMullin - I think he will develop into a top-liner.

Who do we send Bedford to assuming he makes the midfield with Cogs coming in (might go back forward to replace XO?)
Probably send him to Young right? He seems the most damaging

You would think he & Serong are the main candidates ... with Young the more damaging, so him first.

Game Day Guide: Round 23 v Dockers
The GIANTS’ push to cement a top four spot continues in a huge finals-shaping clash with fellow finals aspirant Fremantle at ENGIE Stadium on Saturday.
Looks like Cogs is back!!

GREATER Western Sydney is set to be boosted by the return of star midfielder Stephen Coniglio and ruckman Kieren Briggs for Saturday's clash against Fremantle at Engie Stadium.
Coniglio hasn't played since re-injuring his shoulder against Richmond in round 18, after dislocating it against Geelong at the end of May.
The West Australian has been restricted to just 11 appearances in 2024 due to injury – he also missed three games following an ACL scare – and will require shoulder surgery at the completion of the season.
Coniglio established himself as one of the premier midfielders in the competition across the past two seasons, finishing second in the 2022 and 2023 Kevin Sheedy medals.
After returning to full contact training last week, the 30-year-old is ready to return ahead of another September run.
Briggs has been dealing with a shoulder issue this year and was managed for the trip to Queensland last weekend, with Lachie Keeffe replacing him at the Gabba.
The 24-year-old trained at the Vailo Community Centre on Tuesday and is expected to face Justin Longmuir's side in the Giants' final home game of 2024.
After playing only nine games across his first four seasons at the club, the Academy graduate has been a permanent fixture since early last year, featuring 37 times since being picked for the first time under Adam Kingsley in round 10 last year.
Coleman Medal leader Jesse Hogan and All-Australian half-back Lachie Whitfield trained away from the main group on Tuesday to manage their workloads. Both are expected to play against the Dockers.
Greater Western Sydney climbed to third on the ladder after winning a sixth straight game against Brisbane last weekend, ending the Lions' nine-game winning streak in the process.
The Giants will need to win at least one and potentially both games to finish the home and away season with the double chance.
Greater Western Sydney travels to Ballarat to face the Western Bulldogs at Mars Stadium in round 24.
