Looking forward to see how we respond. Haven't been so comprehensively smashed in a quarter like that since round 23 against Geelong last year. Game is far from over yet.

This had to happen eventually

not the end of the world 

Need to fire up or it’s done. They’ve belted us in clearances and contested marking. If we can’t get our handles all the ball at the source then it’s game over. Credit to Freo for smashing us at the contest. They’re a quality team.

Midfield needs to stand up, they got destroyed in that quarter, someone need to put a rocket under Petracca

Also are the fans outnumbering us? For a moment I thought the game was at Subiaco.

Unless brown or weiderman come good

Tell me you're not watching the game without telling me you're not watching the game...

Just remember Freo beat Geelong a few weeks ago. They aren't a bad team.

In some good news at least Taberner is subbed out injured

Jackson's currency dropped big time after that display. Weid on the backline is a terrible move.

Even though we got well and truly smoked in that quarter, some of our misses are now coming back to haunt us. Fritters snap miss when we were on a roll, Weid's post, Trac's snap miss, they'd have us about par right now. I have confidence in us running over the Dockers, generally speaking, but aside from a burst in the second quarter, I'm not sure where it's coming to come from today, we look really flat, and it really does feel like it's going to be the loss that we need to have. I think we've been coasting for a long time and many of the guys really need a jolt. Maybe the loss will do that. A reminder that we are good, but need to be on our toes always, anyone can beat anyone on any given day.

I think we can win this. But we need to come out breathing fire.

Dr D or watsaname licking his lips.

Freo excellent and not sure if we can win it but we'll re-group and be better in the last. We're a champion team so we won;t give up without a fight. I'm sure of that

Come on dees

 

Weideman, not the only one flat but his chances must be coming to an end.

Nibbler should have had the shot himslef. bad decision

Wow ANB, we are low on confidence. That would have been the perfect start

Big time. Hasn't played great for awhile

Freo will just shut up shop now

For all the TMac haters out there, things could have been very different after May's injury if he had been playing instead of Weideman.

Petty out of form. Tomlinson could be in line for a recall

Just about the whole team aside from Oliver has been for a few weeks

Interesting to see, have to attack the game now instead of trying to manage it.

Spargo wow. Just couldn't finish it

Melksham still hasn't played his 200th, today cannot count.

That’s the problem, our system doesn’t really allow for that.

Bang, bang, bang would be handy about now
