I turned it off. It’s been a hard enough day and I deserve better than watching Freo attempt to play football and Geelong raising their percentage. 

Freo are like Melbourne one year post Neeld.

Fremantle skills are dreadful. Infact diabolical.

I've seen morris dancers look more threatening than Fremantle. Deary me.

Sloppy skills is my concern about Melbourne 

I noticed that Geelong has a small "1859" on the back of their jumper at the top (the GPS pocket).

I don't think we have any reference to 1858 on ours, would be good as love the claim of being the oldest football club. Poor old Geelong forever have to be the "second oldest" muhahaha

We need Fremantle to give.a yelp here.

Geelong are only 11 points away from passing us on percentage.

Fire up Freo. We need to hold out percentage buffer over Geelong to ensure top 2 finish!

Need some junk time Fremantle goals here.

Gap right now has been shortened to 1.2%. Geelong roughly need to outscore Fremantle by 14 points to pass us on percentage tonight.

Freo??! How did they beat us last year. Tough in the contest. 
Freo??! v cats tonight. Freo are marshmallows. 
Cats building percentage and looking very dangerous.  

The Shockers should just Pack it in. 
A failed experiment that never threatened to do anything 

How embarrassing are Freo? No forward structure, no real forward target all night, even when Lobb was on the ground.

Geelong's pressure has been good, but their ball use and decision making hasn't been remarkable. Freo are just a rabble.

Whatley really whacked them on 360 this week and rightly so. All they beat the last 4 weeks were Hawthorn, Carlton and Collingwood. 

And now they've given Geelong a huge percentage boost. We must pummel Hawthorn on Saturday.

And there goes our percentage buffer. Geelong now ahead of us on percentage. Thanks Freo!

Thanks Freo, for knocking us out of the finals last year, then playing like two_toed sloths tonight.

Shame on you Walters for looking like a champion in Cairns, then disgracing yourself tonight.

Geelong doing what they do best. Beat up on weak sides. 

Lost top spot. 

Well few things are more annoying than seeing Geelong on top of the ladder. But destiny, my good friends, remains in our hands in 2021. Hope we really turn it on against the Hawks.

Really?

That could equally describe us last 15 years. We were irrelevant for at least a decade. Glass houses

How many GFs have we played in the last 15 years? How many  brownlows? AAs? Any other measure?

Be respectful of our failures as much as other club's failures. Show humility, our current success could easily fade.

Some around here have the memory spans of goldfish.

Why should we respect other clubs failure? Why show humility? ha ! weve been the butt end of everyone elses jokes for the last 2 decades....like you say it might not last ....so let ppl have a bit of fun with it huh.. after so much failure, nice to see some posters have a bit of a laugh for once.

Abysmal performance by Freo.

So annoying that they lost by so much that Jee-long gained heaps of percentage and have overtaken us.

Freo were putrid. they deserve nothing but scorn after a pathetic performance like that (which has cost us top spot). Not sure why we should be "respecting their failure" just cause we're been rubbish ourselves in the not too distant past

Percentage could be the difference between a home or inter-state qualifying final. We have to put our foot on the Hawks throat tomorrow. I know its not our style, and we shouldn't take the Hawks lightly, but we need to show the same ruthlessness as Geelong and really put a team to the sword

And seeing the cats on top of the ladder has ruined the start to my day
