fun to think about but no in a million years would this happen. no-one is ever this active. Petracca isnt going anywhere. Either is weideman. we just signed him up. and brad hill is worth more than pick 17. serong isnt what we need. he isnt super quick and just yet another inside mid like tom sparrow, albeit better skills. Langdon I do think we desperately need. I agree on Jetta, I think his lack of speed is not going to prolong his career.

everyone saying 'oh, we don't need this type etc.' frustrates me. Okay, let's ignore picking up a shannon hurn for Nick Hind because we need outside speed?! crazy talk. take best available. - Serong doesn't impress me. Strongly built inside mid, good skills, short, avg pace but low ceiling. Jason Taylor will like him because he is hard. - Hayden Young. He'd be my pick. Quick, breaks the lines, accurate kick, brave in the air. - Lachie Ash: Offers the most run of anyone in the top 10 but his decision making isn't great and his skills are questionable. Definitely a Sam Frost type so will be a polarising player wherever he goes.

he ain't coming. delete thread

meh, i don't really care what he has to say. An average coach would've got us playing finals level football and yet we are a bottom 4 side this year. Would love an explanation regarding structure/defensive breakdowns as well as why Fristch is being persisted with down back when we've lost about 5 games this year due to inaccurate kicking. Frustrating

I've seen nothing that suggests he is up to AFL standard. is a deer in the headlights and gives silly free kicks away in front of goals

So there's 3 minutes to go in the last quarter and Gawn marks it out in the open. He decides to play on and gets caught for holding the ball. Freo gather it and gives themselves a big chance to get right back into the game. Sure, Gawn had a good second half but it's these sort of decisions that cost games. Even social players have better IQ than that. There was only one player that decided to slow it down at the right time and that was Petracca and I honestly think it was due to his basketball background. As basketball players are brought up understanding shot clock/game clock management and strategy. It's just frustrating that footy players seem so simple in the mind.

good to get a win despite the season being finished weeks ago. overall skill level is very poor and needs to improve.

why the hell does Goodwin continually play fritsch in defence. clearly gets lost at sea. idiotic free kick

mark it McDonald geez. his decline is so bad

He owes us 2. that was a 2 goal swing. [censored] jones, drop yourself you bald headed [censored]!

I hope he gets played as a mid soon instead of this half forward nonsense.

I hate hypetheticals but yes I'd take him but no a 2nd rounder wouldn't be enough from freo's point of view

i would also trade viney before angus brayshaw. mostly because Viney is slower. And we are so bloody slow. but Goodwin also needs to work on his game plan. We look slow because our system is [censored] and we're always chasing on the rebound. And Angus Brayshaw is worth much more than pick 13 in that article. crazy talk.

I'm sorry but you dont fluke 53 goals. the whole team is just devoid of confidence and that all falls on goodwin

lol is the original poster serious? Some no name aflw player follows another mens team? geez

it doesnt matter that lever and may have been out injured, oscar McDonald should be playing vfl at best. I'd prefer to play literally a player down then have oscar. he does everything bad as a key defender. gives needless free kicks away. slow physically and slow mentally. I think anyone who supported him on demonland needs to have a good look in the mirror and ask themselves if they really understand footy. May and lever will make us an 6 goal better team. not because of their inclusions, but because of oscars exclusion.

the club has never has goal kicking accuracy as a priority. How do I know this? a) we have been terrible for some time. b) petracca is played forward c) Fritsch is played in defence. d) gawn rests forward. There is NO POINT playing ANYONE in the forward line unless they are good kicks for goal. it's pretty simple. oscar McDonald is an easy target. we all know he is a vfl reserves level defender. everyone except the coaching staff.

dude, we're 16th and you're talking about premiership windows? ffs

joel smith being delisted or traded?? you guys have rocks in your head! For a team that lacks any sort of athleticism across the park he is one that has it in spades and also showed to be a pretty accurate shot for goal, something none of our team can do. he is not only starting 22, but starting 18 and was proving that all pre-season. crazy!

I think the only disgrace is the fact that you mentioned the flag! jesus christ! we've been a bottom 4 team this season. completely uncompetitive against some very average teams. the season was stuffed at round 5 and you're talking about flags. we're a laughing stock at the moment. last night maybe earned a bit of respect, but that'll last a week.

Dude, tackle numbers are not much to read into. you get tackles credited for just lying on top of the pack before the ump call for a ball up. our midfield smashed theirs all game. goal kicking was the sole reason we lost. and a bit of the umpiring.

not playing well but either is our whole team this year. I wished they slimmed him up over the pre-season so he would cover the ground better. seemed obvious to me.

fritsch was hopeless. pathetic performance

garlett worst on ground. but seriously, why the hell is petracca played forward. one of the worst kicks for goal in the last decade. terrible coaching. he missed 2-3 goals that I personally would kick most of the time.

any danger of someone kicking a bloody goal. ffs. ball use forward of centre is awful
