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...

That means 19 have touched the ball!

POSITIVITY!

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.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year.
