We need a tagger
Maybe freo arenât that bad. But they finished 14th last season with the second lowest points for. Not the sort of side we should be losing too. Not to mention the 4 players drafted last year in freoâs side
F*ck me there is some seriously over-reactions.
Weâve won 2 games of our last 19 interstate games. After the way we played last week, we werenât going to rock up to Perth and tear Fremantle apart by 100 points like many people were expecting.
We played similar to last week and everyone was happy. Now playing like this is deemed unacceptable because we lost.
Thereâs a lot of stupid results n the first few rounds of a fresh season.
This is one of quite a few this round thus far. Infuriating as it was.
Heath Hocking says hi
There were no positives we were outplayed,outlcassed and out coached,
Everyone was predicting for Bags to come in the side because of the shorter Freo forward line. Because it was only logical.
Not sure why our coaches didnât follow that logic.
- Heppell & Zerrett at 54% and 52% efficiency, with Goddard having zero influence and Zaharakis missing easy targets that he would normally nail. You canât have your best players butchering the ball all night and expect to win.
- Tippa looks unfit and has lacked his usual intensity this year. One good quarter in two games and we need a hellava lot more from him.
- Joey was awful and what made it worse was the cringe-worthy attempts to milk a free kick. Câmon mate.
- Smith was outstanding. 13 tackles and used it well for the most part. His pressure and willingness to run was a highlight. BOG for us by a country mile.
- Saad & McKenna should be pleased with their games, along with T-Bell & Green.
- Hartley, Dea & Brown⌠geez.
Made my night
Wonder if Ballantyne and Matera will go for acting
Round two. We lost by 16 points when a lot of our better players were well down and playing a team that were determined to put on a good showing at their new home. Iâm going to put this one down as a bad night. We have the Bulldogs next Sunday, and expect a lot better from the lads. Too early to be too negative imo
He would have been ragdolled by Cerra tonight, Essington style.
Worsfold is â â â â â â
Maybe others on here are right.
Some have tipped Fremantle be the dark horse of the competition.
Maybe Freoâs performance last week was an anomaly.
Freo to finish 8th to 12th?
Fair enough. I just donât know why we werenât determined to put a good showing in. If this is our âbreak out yearâ surely the players would be determined to win these games interstate??
Instead of taking that opportunity that presented itself tonight to get ahead of the ledger and kick off the season in a really positive manner, we drag ourselves back into the mire of mediocrity that we are so familiar and comfortable with.
Whoooosh
Maybe itâs an over reactions given round 2, but I know I for one was just hoping that perhaps this season we may actually beat sides we should. I was hoping that this year might be different. Bit based on current evidence there is little reason to think so.
They are no good
We are no good
Nobody is any good
Yeah, nah.
