Death Riding Fremantle 2023 - Feathered Cap Edition

[Nascent 9,105]

Richmond has to knock off north next week and I'm not overly confident about it. Could slide back to pick 6 in worst case scenario.

Silver lining for a Freo win next week v Port, will be us back in the top 2. If the Pies also get it done. 

Edit: I mean this slightly sarcastically. Massive silver lining lol

Why is Richmond tanking? Don't they know the pick doesn't belong to them?

Hardwick saw the mess and jumped early when offered a nice young list

Not surprising to read that a lot of aspiring coaches aren't applying for the position.

We'll finish with a pick between 4-6. JT will find a very good player for us in that range i'm sure.

And one in the low 20s as well.

The death ride will be cracking the next two weeks

% watch this weekend and then Suns should beat North in the last round

prediction? pick 4 is ours

[Bring-Back-Powell 14,762]

If Brisbane lose and we beat the Hawks, then I'll be cheering Fremantle on extremely hard on Sunday evening.

West coast Eagles are a laughingstock. How is Adam Simpson still in a job?

Cost a fortune to break his contract.

Things are so bad now after Freo debacle they may have no choice.

Will be staggering if he's still there in 2024. Theyre a very wealthy club.

They'll cut a massive cheque and be done with him.

Adam Simpson is the least of the problems at West Coast

Their list management and fitness and conditioning teams need to be thrown out. 

They need a complete overhaul of both.

Health and conditioning head has been sacked. And no doubt their recruitment has been poor.

i think Simpson is a big part of the problem. for whatever reason the players are obviously not playing for him. Thats a death knell for any coach. the only reason he is still there is because of his contract. Too expensive to sack.

Goldcoast & Richmond doing their bit for us so far. Hang on tight.

[Mach5 4,767]

Goldcoast now playing like they’re tanking. Hard to believe they could be this incompetent.

[Mach5 4,767]

Useless bloody Suns couldn’t hold onto their lead, but the umpires did help to drag the blues over the line.

Pick 4 will still be ours as long as the Suns can knock off roos and the hawks can take care of Freo.

[DubDee 25,590]

GC lost but didnt lose much %

Freo should lose some % tomorrow hopefully

Yes. That push out of Casboult was pretty obvious. 4 umpires and none of them can see it.

 

[BDA 22,735]

pick 5 minimum and still a good chance for pick 4.

The hawks will beat Freo next week i reckon but I hate relying on the Suns to hold up their end of the bargain. Wouldn't be surprised if the chit the bed against the roos. Most undependable team in the league

FAILMANTLE!!! 😂😁😄😅🤣

Roos losing in the Reid cup is an absolute certainty.

Well it was, until the WC board changed their stance on the potential to sack Simpson.

Yes but they still have Curtin.

North could have called their bluff and said take Reid and we take Curtin.

Then swap them 2 years later anyway.

Both clubs now get their first choice player.

true. but WC could have split pick 1 and got a couple of picks. 

do you think they'll split pick 2 or take curtin with it?

I like our chances of getting Pick 4. On form I can't see how Fremantle beat Hawthorn and Gold Coast should beat North. Or both sides could win or lose and Gold Coast make up the 1.6% percentage differential (32 points right now).
