29 Points from Turnover is not great for us . What was our average last season? 44 points against from turnover is also not great. But i was surprised by their low back half scoring. That is quite an achievement.

They do their job. its the way we setup for the ground ball and are unable to create a stoppage or win a ground ball. infuriating.

They fixtured this game knowing the GP race was on. Think about that for a moment. Whoever played GWS today in Melbourne was going to struggle to beat 30K. The weather itself would have kept another 5K-10K at home.

The game was 50/50. In the end, Giants steamrolled us in the last quarter, probably aided by match fitness gained from Round 0. Is it fair? No. Does the AFL care? No Will the club do anything about it? No Best we all just accept it and move on. At first glance, we will have a good shot at Top 4, if we maintain our fitness. We have some solid players to come back over the next month or so and need to bank at least 3 win in the first 6 games. Not going to be easy.

Lindsay was A+. Great pickup. What was wrong with Langford? I thought he'd be fresh but looked laboured. Smart, Henderson were servicable and AJ had the option to seal the game and failed to convert. Hopefully he learns from that. But he'll be a good backup ruck for Gawny throughout the year. Out of all the transition teams, the Giants are easily the best. We should have been ready for that last goal so it was a noble effort. Our forward line didn't look great at all. We got a number of lucky goals based on Giants mistakes, but our slow ball movement just doesn't give them a chance and our talls are just witches hats when the ball hits the deck. Giants looked very skillful and slick with ball movement. We should have done everything to try and get Callaghan - the kid will win Brownlow's.

And he shouldnt have been playing. But nonetheless it was a good test. Ultimately i think we were disadvantaged by the fact that it was the GWS second game of the year.

Good game.

1st turnover goal.

Lucky goal Giants

There it is…. Bang bang bang.

Bang bang. One more come on!

Windsor! Love it.

How on earth is that a free?

Lindsay = Jet

Umpires a real blight already

Stupid stupid stupid

May late out?

[censored] that Transition

Jeffo!

It’s going to be windy as hell though.

Ollie Henry seems like a stand up guy.

I hate the bloke, but Chris Scott will go down as one of the best coaches of all time. He has picked the Freo game plan apart and made them look 2nd rate.

This is ridiculous. Game is fixed.

What about Dangers ‘one handed handball’ l a few moments earlier.

What is wrong with Freo? They look second rate, bottom 4 stuff. umpiring so far this round has been a complete joke.
