3 things learned from Rd 7 vs Fremantle 2024

[GVGjr]

Please list the 3 things learned from our R7 encounter against Fremantle.

[Yankee Hotel Foxtrot]

1. Until we can win close games, let alot tough, close, away games like this... we're kidding ourselves. We need a 2015 vs Sydney in Sydney result.

2. Bont I'm sure he's injured, right? Getting lots, but wow I am deadset sick of this absolute legend blowing shots on goal like he does. That for me just was the domino to me that caused the thers to cascade and fall at key moments.

3. I am so glad we lost the 21 GF here and not at the G.. because we are deadset haunted by demons at times on this ground.

1. We will clog the lads around 11-12
2. Daniel & Lobb could be fire sold
3. Time to rebuild properly

[Bullies]

1. We have too many players not up to AFL standard.

2. They don't play for each other. There appears to be no commitment with these guys. Somethign is not right.

3. Why did they not move Buku forward. Freo intentionally kicked the ball to whoever he was on and isolated him. He now needs a long spell in the 2's to learn how to defend.

4, We can see now why both Caleb and Jack are not getting regular games.

[The Bulldogs Bite]

1. Darcy is better than Marra already.

2. We need to get inventive to get back I to the draft. The only way to do it is to trade the likes of English, Daniel, Macrae and (sadly) Smith.

3. Time to blood a few. Starting with Clarke.

I'm kinda getting a bit nervous Bont could just blow this place.. I don't know why I am getting vibes.. but his performances don't seem to be inspiring the others to lift their game.. and at some point does he go ' They don't seem to be responding to me and my attempts to lift the team..maybe I go somewhere and not have to carry blokes on my back every week.

My spidey senses are tingling.

His outward displays of frustration have multiplied noticeably.

Hopefully just upset with his dodgy ankle (give him a rest).

Gotta enter his mind at some stage. Can you blame him if he did? I couldn’t.

A really really really good looking poster on this forum said a while ago he wouldn't be surprised if Bont we t looking for a coa$tal life$tyle and honestly who could blame him?

1. 3rd 1/4 goalkicking 2-7 to 3-3 and coach Spangher's forward system is kick it long to a pack of 10 and hope for the best.
2. Lobb, Harmes, Khamis and Gallagher do not deserve frequent flyer points - non-contributors and nothing positive.
3. Bont looked injured to me but one mistake and the guy is crucified by fickle so called supporters.

I dont remember saying that but i'll take it.

[AshMac]

1. Until we start taking the ruck contest seriously we?ll continue losing centre clearances to top 8 midfields

2. Our tackling is below par - the opposition almost always gets a hand free and dishes it out

3. Perth umpires are the worst. That was abysmal

[The bulldog tragician]

1. Freo have unearthed a promising young talent called Nathan Fyfe. Our coaching panel were understandably caught unawares and can’t be blamed for not having a plan to curb him. Next time, hey fellas?
2. Caleb Daniel’s fall has been sudden and catastrophic. And rather heartbreaking.
3. People call us enigmatic, say that our list is A grade and that we’re underachieving. But maybe we’re just not very good.

[bornadog]

1. Our list is over rated. yes we have some star players but we rely on them every week, but the other 12 or so playing are ordinary

2. Lobb is weak as piss - I have gone off him

3. CHB is still a major problem (along with many other roles, but this is a key position)

[angelopetraglia]

1. We can't win any game we don't completely dominate. We don't have the mental fortitude to work our way through a close contest.

2. Sam Darcy is a superstar in the making. He is still a baby giraffe at only 20 for his size. He will be a freak if he can stay fit.

3. Loved some of Khamis games this year when there is heat on inside 50m entry and he can get off his man and intercept. But he can't defend 1:1. You just can't trust him in a big game or a close finish. Tonight, if Fremantle made the mistakes he made in our forward line we win.
