Turnovers.  So lazy. Salem shocking turnovers.  Missed target x2 led to goals to Freo. Why is he even in.  Lazy player. Switkowski. Salem runs off and gets caught out as a non defender!!  Poor 

Contested possession - Freo +28!!

stoppages Freo +7 (5-12) 

forward turnovers  dees 7 score nil 

forward turnovers Freo 13 goals 8 

Hunter - 2 missed tackles weak  

Petty is nothing  can’t mark can’t tackle 

Turner gives nothing  out marked and out run by defenders 

Sparrow  Rivers fumbles 

Sparrow on Young  young giving him a bath 

Trac  30 metre angle - left foot snaps wtf !!! Use right foot 

Freo  kick run mark skills 😡😡

Best players  NIL

    OLIVER ZERO CONTESTED POSSESSIONS IN A HALF OF FOOTY

    VINEY WITH ONE

    WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THIS MIDFIELD?!

    It has been run into the ground by a severe lack of depth and quality rotations. Our recruiting has been diabolical.

    The Goodwin gameplan has severely under valued speed and transition on top so we are now overly reliant on centre breaks and dominance at half back.

    This midfield implosion has been in the making for at least 2 yrs.

    Not really surprised after the eagles game.

    Oliver is a shadow of his old self.

    Tracca has been quiet this year too.

    Sparrow is lucky to get games.

    And then there is our fwd line.

    We don't have one. 

    We are shot and we have few coming up through the ranks.

    Our dominance is well and truly over.

    It's back to the dark old days.

    Or at least mediocrity.

    Where are the clowns who find every excuse under the sun for our poor performances this season. I want to hear the excuses for this rubbish.

    Two Freo players hold the ball and effectively tackle each other Nibbles tackles them. No holding the ball. WTF???

    Didn’t we have a 51 point comeback with Austin back in the day haha, we’re gonna need exactly that to win and restrict them the nil.

    Go dees! Gotta laugh because I feel like crying. This isn’t system adjustment stuff, this is just sad. 

    Except for the first 5 minutes, they are making us look amateurs...

    Freo pressure and system totally killing us, easily moving end to end and blocking all exits. 

    No pressure or even fight around contest, unlike free around the contest.  

    Pity any dees supporters that flew up the watch. 


    Worst first half since 2018 prelim. 3rd grossly uncompetitive display this season. WTF is going on?

    I don't have anything nice to say so I'm not saying anything at all.

    absolutely terrible effort, while max is getting the tap out it is going to the opposition and they are clearing the ball, he need to get the ball to our players. when it goes the freo players out of the ruck, our midfield is not putting pressure on them. why they hell do we not man up they are running rings around us with this stupid zone game we play. collingwood and north must be loving this.

    Kozzie and I aren't having a good birthday right now.

    Heads will roll for this performance. Something is seriously wrong with this club. West coast, now this. Need to step back and rethink the list

    Not trading Petty to Adelaide is one of our bigger list mistakes in a long time

    We would be lucky to get a bag of old marbles for him .

    One disposal for a half.

    No marbles.

    Edited by leave it to deever

    In reality ...selling the game is NOT the real issue.

    Getting thumped is..

    We play like yoyos 

    Team is very over-rated imo... sorry to say.

    Nice the lads have a good mate in  Simon

    Kum by ya ...

    Go Dees ( back to the airport....just go home..... youre obvious not interested)

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • VOTES: Richmond

      Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
