Sunday training run for Freo on Domain Stadium.

We're probably better than a few WAFL sides

Freo kick first 5 goals and aren't out of second gear yet!

Posted

Can't remember us ever being in front on free kick count at quarter time. 12-2 is a joke of an imbalance. And they wonder why attendances are down.

No injuries so far!

PS - we should also be fresh to make our assault on the final 3 quarters!

Also good to see Viney have a real go (needs to clean up his disposal, but what's new?)

Most of the free kicks are a product of 3 things:

1. Dumb footballers playing like idiots

2. Zero talk and players getting caught

3. Players fumbling and giving away a freek kick as a means of making up for their ineptness.

Most of the free kicks have been there.

Freo do seem to be allowed to drop the ball though.

No heart, no urgency, no interest.

Will there be a soul at next week's game?

Why did we even bother with Spencer today?

We have no run, getting smacked in the ruck and the clearances. We would have been better off with more legs through the middle. And Grimes is sub is just dumb.

The coaching perplexes me.

Almost as annoying as seeing Michie pull up on two chases

It's the correct decision though.

Kicking back acres goal when we're getting hammered?

Yeah, right.

Three Dees without a touch...

Summary:

1st QTR in the last four weeks

6 goals to 1

5 goals to 1

8 goals to 1

7 goals to 2

Yet again game over at qtr time.

We have been killed yet again by the spare man in defence.

Great coaching Roosy. Good to see them coming out and breathing fire.

Adios I'm out of here. Think I'll wash the car.

No it wasn't. The rule was bought in to protect players lower legs. The Freo player jumped and kneed him in the neck, that is not lower legs. If they start that sort of interpretation then you will soon not be allowed to bend over.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break.
