Wouldn't have a clue @RedLegs23 Ask some pimple faced kid they would know, its got me ccompletely fkd. Arrogant [censored] the lot of them just like their coach, taking selfies onfield, posing like tough guys and all this other BS!

The best example of fair weather supporters are the Dorks, where have they been for the past 6 years? All of a sudden they have some stupid Hokball [censored] saying with an extremely kind draw last year. Kisses me right off that they have one good year and they have a fair share of prime time TV slots. Like they really have paid their dues in the comp to deserve this on sporting merit after one season, f off AFL. Let's see how they cope with the bright lights and everyone trying to smack them up. We will crack 65k again if we get off to a good start, which I'm sure we will.

This is terrible news.

I think yesterday was a good hit out for us in general. Loads of positives to draw upon from Clarry to Trac to AJ to getting more time into our 1st and 2nd year players. I thought our forward pressure was good for 3 quarters. Like every club your bottom 6 is where you are going to get exposed to clubs with more depth like yesterday showed. From a realistic point of view i thought our effort was generally 8/10 for most of the day, but skills were totally off so more work is required in that department. Considering the location of the game and the weather conditions which were all in Freo's favour I thought there were more positives than negatives. More times than not there wasn't much signs of our half ground press and they just seemed to transition the ball through when in our front half without any push back from our defensive 8. Just rolled through the corridor without and sort of congestion especially during that 2nd quarter. If and when I see signs of our half ground press i know we will be in a much better space defensively. So many things that usually get used in our games were not in play. At the end of the day your not going to be showing your full deck of cards in an AFL community series game half way around Australia in a country town called Mandurah while it's 34 degree heat in a practice game. Apart from the 2nd quarter we were more than in the game and had plenty of goal scoring opportunities. We showed more than enough to suggest we will be a handful if we have our full compliment of A and B graders out of the deck. It's the bottom 6 I'm most concerned about because we drop away badly. Getting back to R1 I think we will murder them inside without Tom Green, Clarry, Trac, Langers, Gawny to have a field day just a matter of putting the final product on the scoreboard.

I think AJ and Sharpie have locked themselves in for R1 after today's performance. AJ really suprised up forward and in the ruck, he is a real goer. You can throw a blanket over the top of 6 or 7 players who would be sleeping very nervously from tonight up until the 1st team selection. Bowey, Howes, Billings, Xavier, Adams, Chandler and Langford.

Howes, Bowey, Adams simply not up to it!

3 qtrs are enough pull him outta there!

About to turn this off.... Horrible, I know it's hot and we are playing in a country location but this is [censored] poor!

F me this has turned bad!

Who missed that tackle in the goalsquare? criminal behaviour that. Had 70 percent of the play for no return. Wasteful Dees. Clarry in for a big year.

Could you imagine Kate saying something like this.🤦 What a circus it was under her watch. f me sideways. At last there is some backbone at boardroom level to lay out a marker to the footballing world that we aren't going to be pushed around and pillaged. Freo have so much confidence in the direction their footy club is headed that they placed their head coach on a 12 month employee based contract. To save themselves some coin if it goes [censored] up. 😂😂😂

That is powerful statement that from Greeny on the front foot and smashed it back over the bowlers head for MAXIMO. (6) Polite and honest as ever, we all love and cherish Kozzie no doubt, all good if he wants to go home. Guess what though Freo its going to cost you the house and your farm also. Love it.❤️

GWS look like they've done a hard training session at there captain's run. No direction whatsoever on every line. Collingwood might give them a nice old touch up going on this 1st qtr.

That's the logo right there, the best version of the Demon with the pitch fork. Collar popped up in red, classic and still in vogue, just change the VFL logo with an AFL one.

How many players can we take into this week's game? Normal season rules 23 players or same as last weekend 30? Its a real tough one this week with Kozzie but unfortunately I think he will be on limited minutes. Can't take away to much game time away from someone lining up to play R1, R2 and R3. I have a feeling he will be going into a fitness block now to preparing for no footy for the next month.

There is no rationale its just pure 💩

How can the AFL cut the SPP(Feb 19) before the first official match of the AFL season. Which league around the world would endorse this type of garbage? 💩 Common sense here AFL, allow us to bring someone in. #FFS

Any good?

What was the final score after 4 qtrs? I can't be f kd scrolling through pages watched until the start of the 4th we were 15 points up.

I mentioned it a couple of months ago that our squad build in the last 24 months has placed us in a position where i personally think our squad is stronger than it has been for the last 3 years. *Shake up of our game plan 🤞 according to interviews by Goody (I have nothing to go by yet we'll found out more tomorrow and in the next month or so.) *Forward stock options- JVR has help finally around him. *Midfield rotation options/Running power through defence through to midfield *Quality cover in Ruck now Gawn/Campbell and Verrall *Defensive stability only worry is a lack of small defenders with Mcvee going down. Having not seen the kid play in the flesh only highlights to go by but it I feel we only got stronger with the inclusion of Hendo onto our list. 💪

How long is Kenty out for? What is the length of time one has to be injured for before a replacement can registered? Half a season/ Full season?

Liking the cut of this boys jib exactly the type we needed. 👌👌👌👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏

Love a goals does Langers! I reckon you've hit the nail on the head here FT. I reckon this might be the role (ANB role) he will be playing going forward.

Starting to build the engine room back up again and the much vaunted bermuda triangle in defence is back in tact. Great vibes about the club this pre season. Any positional move that can add something to the team im in favour of. It feels like the end to last season has finally made the penny drop to promote a pre season of reflection and change. As supporters you would have to be happy with what's coming out of the club. But the proof will be in the pudding.

6 weeks till round 1, why the negative outlook? I'd rather this build up than the last couple of years with all the negativity. Stronger squad than the last 2 years.
