They're sold out.

Demon Army sold out! Would be forever grateful to any AFL Reserve tickets sent my way.

The site says sold out now.

Wow I've triggered a lot of people here with my Grundy and Jordon talk. Anyway, here's to Billings and Fullarton!

okay buddy

It's crazy we gifted both Grundy and Jordon to a premiership contender. Not very strategic.

You're missing out on one of those "so bad it's good" gems. Very high pressure, high turnover.

Both of our Adelaide games were away

Can anyone spare a ticket for Monday? I didn't think I'd be able to attend and it appears all AFL Reserve is completely sold out. As too are club members and GA.

He's clearly not ready mate. And to be honest I don't think he'll do well against a high pressure Collingwood outfit. I see him as a liability.

Really don't care who replaces him but if McAdam plays I'm boycotting the rest of the season.

And at three quarter time of a game we're losing by 80 points.

Referencing 2004 in 2024 is like referencing 1984 in 2004. Totally different games. The league is holistically much tougher (and better) now. Good teams don't lose like that. Fullstop.

He gave us forward line depth. Our replacement is McAdam. We haven't replaced Bedford.

Yeah, we lost momentum after letting Bedford walk tbh and Jackson leaving. Brayshaw a huge gap. Recruitment has been poor and the handling of Grundy isn't scrutinised enough.

I'll eat my hat live on Twitch if we win this one.

We're lucky this isn't at the G mate. The score might have been worse.

We had a second AA ruck signed sealed and delivered. They gave it 10 weeks to work then gave up, and crashed out in straight sets for the second year in a row. They traded that ruck to another contender who is now 1st halfway through the year. Meanwhile we sigh McAdam who can't kick 30 metres, ignore trade requests for Petty who average 5 touches a game and no goals, and gave Oliver an ultimatum only for him to turn into a potato. Our best players are all turning/in their 30s, we have zero ruck depth, no forward craft, and a wasted midfield. McRae has demonstrated what good coaching craft does with a solid list. Melbourne has choked so hard post-flag. Today is the eye opening I think many needed.

This is coach-killing stuff.

This is coach-killing stuff.

Not sticking with Grundy and not giving it more time was perhaps the most short-sighted coaching decision I have ever seen this club make. We gifted him to Sydney who is now dominating and has an AA ruck for the next 4-5 seasons. Meanwhile we are plodding along with Petty as a backup ruckman, and we get absolutely spanked whenever a team has more than one big body. Anyone that didn't see the writing on the wall after the West Coast game is delusional.

Freo's best first quarter for the year. Freo's best half for the year. We consistently make this irrelevant spud of a club look like superstars.

Freo's largest half time score is 7.6. They have 7.3 with 10 minutes left in the half.

The difference in this game is one team being able to hit regulation kicks in the corridor. And the other not.

Whatever Goodwin and his coaching team are trying to do this year they need to go back to basics. We are so out of sync and just average. There's no identity to what we're doing. We're not even at half time yet and the week's footy shows already have an entire week's worth of content to talk about. This isn't just a player issue. This is a comprehensive structural breakdown.
