Unpopular Freo Opinions

[DragoDelph]

Wonder what a blend of the 2x would look like.

(Anchor into chevrons, or chevrons into anchor)

I totally rate David King.

I enjoy his perspective and analysis and find it hard to disagree with his criticism of us, I think our Dockery ways drive him up a frigg’n wall at times, and fair enough.

I see it as him calling it for what it is, and when we ARE good enough, he’s going to recognize that.

I even enjoyed his off the record type interview with Schofield the other day.

There, said it.

People whinge we get no attention in Melbourne but I reckon he analyses Freo more than any other club.

Analyses? Yeah, that's what the flog does

I have a feeling that this may be our retro guernsey for this year.

We haven’t got much else left unless we start wearing East Freo/South Freo jerseys we wore in the early to mid 2000s. We would’ve almost worn the purple haze as much as last years design.

The other option would be to start again and wear the 1995-2010 home kit again - feels a bit soon for that imo.

To be fair they could always do it again with the more slim anchor we became used to wearing, last one was the fat anchor.

The bookies have the Bulldogs as favourites against Freo off the bye? I think we will be hard pushed to win this game.

Even the bookies don’t think we have arrived yet.

I hate , detest, abhor, the thought if changing our present guernsry.
It is by far the best FOOTBALL guernsey we have ever had.

 

[freo1997]

I’m not big on the red/green with purple..but have no issues with the anchor.

Purple Haze with the original anchor (95-00) would be the best of both worlds.

This isn’t necessarily an unpopular opinion as I don’t think it’s been discussed previously & I seriously hope it doesn’t come to fruition.

But Neil Erasmus is tracking to have a similar career to Connor Blakely

in regards to output & skillset. As we know Connor could rack them up at Wafl level, but wasn’t overly inspiring at AFL level bar a few games.

Erasmus is a fair bit younger than Connor was when he was dominating WAFL so I really hope he can transfer that form into the AFL sooner rather than later.

Happy to be shot down on this one & have defiantly gone early on it.

Personally think he needs to be key to trade negotiations to getting these two million players that are apparently coming, becomes a win-win for all because reality is he's not going to get a fair crack at it here that he could have gotten if he were drafted elsewhere.

Surely we aren't after "two million" players. Where would we put them?

I wouldn't trade any of our best 22 starting KPFs for Waterman. Would you?

Of course not. But that wasnt what I said though!
Waterman would be in the AA team right now if picked. Our two youngsters are not at that level yet.

 

[Kram]

Hopefully totally wrong but Chapman is just another Hughes.

I see some of the the mob has turned and this isn't such an unpopular view now

Ironically I'd now say just keep backing him in.

isn’t a very good midfield coach, that game had so many 2023 vibes about it, got absolutely pants in the centre square, what is our setup when Fyfe isn’t playing?

Edit: why can’t Brodie get a gig when Fyfe is out?

Because Will Brodie isn’t as good as Neil Erasmus.

I was right, it is an unpopular opinion
