  1. The other one is that clearances don’t matter remember when Gawn was the tap king and there was silver service? It’s a distant memory. I raised this in the podcast preview of today’s game Gawn and Grundy aren’t that good relative to Sean Darcy who is the clubhouse leader and essentially didn’t play today - jacko towelled us up our defence isn’t that good or different in system to other teams - freo was good our fwd line except for Fritter and Kossie is nothing super - spargo works hard not much in the locker freo deserves its credit it beat Geelong and has won on the road it has ruck defence and midfield well covered we have been drinking bath water
  2. Gawn has gawn
  3. Do our fwds lead?
  4. Another lost clearance
  5. Thanks for your efforts I ask that you consider how strong our ruck division is heretical I know! Sean Darcy is the benchmark apparently afl stats comparison shows he is way ahead of Max and Brodie on hit outs, stoppage clearances and centre clearances true he is one player and we have 2 rucks but Freo also have a relief or chop out ruck option which is delivering something when not rucking then there is the work our rucks do when not in ruck contests my challenge is to the prevailing orthodoxy that our two ruck system provides us with competitive advantage what do you think?
  6. Looks like tmac
  7. Joel Smith to do a defensive fwd role on Alir Alir?
  8. Cain Cornes was asked what PAs weakness was vs Dees he said tall defenders so petty fwd makes sense plus Dixon and Marshall may be out anyway
  9. I don’t know what you are taking about seems to be even to me no irony
  10. Thanks frosty

    Gosh an unbeliever
  23. And pick up half the tab for the team taking him
  24. I observed he covers lots of terrain according to the tracker its the lead up work to get kicks out of defence at the hbf and then getting back to be an option in offence also his defensive pressure in the fwd line will be superior to what bb offers finally Goody gives things a chance to succeed being a fwd takes timing craft and connections with ball carriers and that might take a few more games to get to work
  25. Adams looks the goods but at 18 can still add 10 kg schacke weighs the same as Hibbo
