Death Riding Fremantle 2023 - Feathered Cap Edition

[Bring-Back-Powell 14,865]

Geelong $3.20 to win the game as of now. 
 

5 mins left.

[Bring-Back-Powell 14,865]

When your best player in Stewart kicks into the man in the mark 7 points down late the game, then you ain’t winning this thing.

[Jaded No More 68,967]

I always said I HATE GEELONG 

 

[Colm 2,167]

Bye bye pick 4

[Redleg 40,979]

Bye pick 4

[dino rover 714]

Pride before a fall

sack Scott

[Radar Detector 1,347]

I would happily take pick 5 if it means Geelong miss finals

[FritschyBusiness 1,478]

Pick 4's not gone yet. Depends on GC

A Geelong loss always feels good, makes the squeeze for bottom 4 of the 8 tougher for them. 

[Bitter but optimistic 22,242]

Now I know the true meaning of feeling conflicted.

[Nascent 9,220]

Still currently hold pick 4 but we need gold coast and Adelaide to win some games now

[demoncat 1,466]

It’s okay everyone - we’ll either get pick 4 from Freo or we’ll trade GC for it. Easy done…

In all seriousness why couldn’t have Geelong just done their job? Even in a loss I hate them 

[Lord Travis 10,743]

Pick 4 looking shaky. Suns will get belted by Brisbane this week and drop below Freo on percentage. 

[censored] you Geelong. Pathetic reigning premiers can’t even beat a bottom 4 interstate team at home to secure a finals place. Absolutely pathetic today.

Yes, Glass-half because Geelong's chances of making the finals look very shaky:

GEE run home: POR (H), COL (A), STK (A), BULL (H)

As for the death ride:

CGS run home :BRI (H) - this round, ADE (A), SYD (A), CAR (H), NOR (A)

FRE run home: BRI (H), WCE (A), POR (H), HAW* (A)

* With Fremantle winning today the Hawks have pick 3 locked in so they can afford to play all four quarters.

They play each other next week so at least one of them will get a win 

Freo has Lions, Eagles, Port, Hawks 
Suns have Lions, crows, swans, blues north 
Crows have port, suns, lions, swans, eagles 

[TeamPlayedFine39 8,508]

I’ll be cold in the ground before a bemoan a Geelong loss.  Book an early holiday Cats!

 

 

[darkhorse72 1,920]

Lots of upsets already this weekend, go GC

 

[Uncle Fester 2,848]

Picks are over rated.

Geelong probably not featuring in this years finals - absolutely priceless.

chris scott's boys must have had a round of flu - hohoho!

Geelong gonna cost us H.Reid

[Lord Travis 10,743]

****test result today. Looks like we’ll finish with pick 6 now. Means we won’t have ammo to trade for Harley Reid and we will have less points to trade with Gold Coast too. So this loss is a double whammy for us. Gutted.

[BDA 22,759]

We should never bemoan a Geelong loss. Not to worry. We’re still getting a good pick.

And go Suns

Look at it from another perspective… Freo still plays both Brisbane and Port at home this year. If we continue winning, Freo coming into some sort of form could help nudge us into 2nd spot and a home qualifying final.

Quite.

The Death Ride has now entered the final act.

You see, the flailing of the riders heading for the afterworld was always going to happen. And now, with Geelong wounded, the Fremantle Living Dead have Brisbane and Port in their last 4 rounds. The husked corpses of the west win those games and we rejoice, they lose and we chortle. Even if they were to win 3 of their last 4 from here - that would get them only above GC.

So I guess we need a new ride; the Gold Coast Love Ride.

Go Sunnies Go.

Cats vs Freo at KP

That'll sort out the % differential between them and Hawks!

I got that horribly wrong 🤦

Never rely on GCS to win games late in the season.
