The McCartins are big loss for them in terms of their structure. It will take time to adjust. Yep...

Still don’t think Freo is playing as well as they could. Even last week they only just got over the Suns. The only wildcard is it’s in Perth, but the doggies have played there a lot so they know the ground and the weather will suit them. They have a better defense v fwd over the Freo matchups. Fingers cross the doggies can get a good game going.

Money talks. I thought the ideal was to grow the game by moving it around. Love it in WA. But gee maybe in 4 yrs!

What's worse, is I have Oliver as my fantasy captain :(

their pressure and structure is to focused for us... We havent looked like we have had the right mindset and effort all day. To top it off it's one of those days where all the bounces and drops seem to fall their way. Though when you put more effort it, that tends to happen. I blame listening to the end of the podcast from last week this morning and how we had their measure... jinxed it :(

Tigers just have the legs anymore (maybe they'll prove me wrong.)

I tipped freo, but can the suns do it!!

Blinded their logic as their team had developed differently since the draft year. As I pointed out before the trade will was the wrong time and will unsettle their team.

Walking away after the game in Perth yesterday I think I need to comment on the massive increase of supporters in demons gear. Gone seems the days of a small group watching the Dee's play. I remember the 2006 semi final where about 1/2 a bay of supporters were present. Even saw a couple of lids wearing demon gear while their parents were in eagles gear. Yes we were still greatly outnumbered but has the final series of 2021 grown our base or simply more members are willing to come out and watch us play now that we aren't [censored].

Better 2nd half of qtr. from the view from the game, it’s been a game of almost, often just out of touch. Kelly and eagles around packs are doing well. Their plan seems to be slow us down around packs to stop our quick breaks.

How bad is the bummers goal kicking, right in front too.

That I thought at the end of their 2022 season

there is a lot of that nowadays... I reckon we need more umpires on the field to catch such situations...4 isn't enough. I reckon we go for 36 umpires they all just follow 1 player each, personalised umpiring.

What happens in the game thread stays on the game thread. It's good to be passionate, but sometimes it causes us we see things through a certain lense that' isn't what is happening and react. We all do it. As long as people dont get bagged over it, it's okay.

He may be subconsciously trying too hard in the role of captain, hence affecting his own game.

father son picks...

And all the eagles errors are back...

8 points... The big question is are the dockers mentally broken..or will they settle... If they loose it will say a lot about their season chances.

Lost another player but their on top..

Will the eagles have a team next week?

Weagles have turned into a bit of a rabble at the moment.

Simply an 8 point game to win against a good side. Great debut by Rooey, that will give him lots of confidence going into nest week.

Melks after the siren to put the icing on top

great way to really break the swans hoodoo over us. We have out worked them in the second half.

Rooey!! Love the high 5 after the mark...
