FREO Shocking

Featured Replies

Well the dockers aren't much better than us... constantly getting caught with the ball, slow midfield very similar traits to us... wish there was a market for teams NOT to make the 8 coz i know id be jumping all over freo who would of had pretty generous odds before today probably $2.... they will be bottom 4.. will hardly win an away game and will drop half at home i think... collingwood havnt been that good

You could also parallel the shoddy delivery into the forward 50........

Freo were very very ordinary.

Tarrant was absolutely hopeless. Can't believe they traded pick 8 - which the Magguires used on Ben Reid - for him. He is one overpriced underperforming half forward flanker.

They are slow, their ball use and decision making is very ordinary. the number of times they fluffed simple short passes or handballs or managed to run themselves into trouble was amazing.

At least the Wiz played ok. He provided Pavlich with the only decent pass to him for the whole game.

In fact looking at the Freo list and watching the game today you gotta hope that Connolly's trip back over the Nullarbor saw some sort of Saulian road to Damascus conversion vis a vis and re list management. There is not much young talent comng through and they have a lot of Jack Dyer good ordinary footballers -- and they have done more than a few questionable trades.

 

Went to the game yesterday, agree with most of you're thoughts, but I still think that they will win a few games this year. They have two Mobile KPPs in Pavlich and Mcpharlin that are class and they have a huge home ground advantage, two things we don't have and that might be enough for Freo to not finish in the bottom 4 this year.

Whilst they have a good list. Quite a few of them started there career elsewhere and their best years are behind them ala Tarrant, M Johnson, Solomon etc

  • PREVIEW: Brisbane

    They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.
