Terrible kicking for goal tonight. Gotta go the hard way around now likely through Brisbane if we can win next week. Really hope Port can knock them off

James Sicily…absolute gun and still criminally underrated

Does Steven May take Curnow and Tomlinson to Mackay?

Harmes again…what an awful game by him. Every time he gets the ball he looks for co tact and to fend…just stupid

Gee Harmes has been horrible

Matthew Johnson

One 4 point loss to a team now considered to be a premiership threat

You are correct on this matter Picket. This one is a joke. I just do not understand what Lachie is as meant to do except stay away from the ball/ contest in anticipation that Rozee might get there. The game is becoming more and more difficult to understand

Bloody good player though

I love Brodie! Absolute Gun!

Bring the heat after the break and we win this one. Need to re-set the setup at the coal face

Bowey will not be dropped on current form

Was at the game. Hunter is really starting to find his groove in our team. He is a gun and will be huge for us. So impressed by some of our youngsters - Rivers, McVee, Bowey, Chandler - take bow!

I dislike Essendon more than any club…well maybe equal with Collingwood. I hope we embarrass them. We are better than them, as a team and just generally!

They also have to worry about Fritta. I’m predicting he will be better for the first up run last week. Still underrated IMO but Bailey is in the top few forwards on the comp…an absolute gun!

You forgot Jefferson. The glimpses I saw of him in the Casey game were very promising…looks a pure big forward

Serious question - is that a good sign in terms of medial v ACL?

Coleman a big out for the Lions

Chandler great tonight I thought

Quality bloke. I like Thommo and hope he goes well tomorrow. I reckon he will do is proud

Thanks. No, it wasn't just your post, I have seen it stated the same way in the media i.e. only the 2nd round pick being qualified as "tied to Freo". Cheers

Can anyone tell me what Future 2nd tied to Freo means? If I am right it means that the pick is dependent on Freo's finishing position. Why would the Future 1st they traded to us be different...or is it the same?

Agreed, his kicking makes our team immediately better

Absolutely agree with this sentiment. A premiership hero of the MFC

I can't remember but does anyone know if trading (or lack thereof) is allowed to continue over the weekend?
