Chook

Luke Jackson had so many chances to impact the game in the last 5-10 minutes and just didn't want it enough. Lions win, but the dees secure 2nd (for a week at least).

Frederick with another ripper goal from the pocket to bring Freo within 2 points with a minute left. Come on Jacko give us some of that bang bang bang magic.

Jackson has lost 2-3 critical one on ones in the last few minutes to cost Fremantle a goal and a chance at goal.

Freo are torching their forward opportunities and Brisbane are pulling free kicks and random kicks off the ground for all their goals. Annoying.

Imagine being a Lions fan watching our game this afternoon. Boring and disappointing (not that I'm complaining).

What a one-handed mark from Amiss. Luke Jackson is playing a ripper game.

And again…could be 2 goals up…instead 2 behinds and the scores are level. I'll take a draw though.

Feels good to support Luke Jackson's success again, if only for one game.

Smith.

He's not Tony Lockett. We can win the flag without him, but what it does show is what the replacement has to be able to bring.

Damn…Petty probably out till finals or worse with that ankle it looks like.

Wow Harmes is poor…I used to actually quite rate him but he has gone backwards in a big way.

I'd sub Salem for Hibberd.

Which team does? We beat North by 90 earlier in the year. Did we lose our "killer instinct" between then and now? This has mostly been an issue with our bottom 8-10 players absolutely not showing up, and that's on them to fix.

If ever a gameday thread was appropriately negative it's this one. Blimey what an awful first quarter and a half.

Salem, Sparrow, Jordan, Rivers, Harmes all might as well have had Kangaroo jumpers on for the first quarter. Good effort from the rest of the team to carry those blokes.

Incredible smother from Lever for a 12 point turnaround. Good effort dees to turn around what is by far the worst 45 minutes of football we've produced in years. JVR is tired but love how hard he works. Will be a star.

Great goal from Kosi but where on earth was the front on contact for Roo?

Harmes is so far out of our best 23 it's not funny. Should've been dropped after last week, and definitely should after this performance. Salem living on 2021 credits too.

Great goal from Chandler. Accuracy keeping us in it so far.

Tremendous arrogance from so many players today. If I were goody I'd be ropable. He sprayed Max last week. He should spray everyone else this week.

How many lazy fumbles especially from Hunter and Salem.

Some proper ball movement there for the first time in the game and we get an easy contested mark. The Roos are not a good side, so as long as we're able to bring our level up to something halfway reasonable we'll still win.

Centre bounce landed outside the circle, with no opportunity for Roo to contest it. Play on clearance to the Roos.

Get smith out of the backline. He is an absolute liability down there. May can't kick today. Lever forced to play one on one
