    1. Our forward pressure is immense.
    2. The league is spoiled for quality ruckmen at the moment.
    3. Liam Jones has years left in him

        1. When the mids are on fire we win

        2. Liam Jones still has it in him - great acquisition

        3. The three talls in the forward line are a real worry for other teams

          1. Our mids and forward's might've just finally learned how to communicate! The guys up forward moved to different areas, and the guys up field bringing the ball in, didn't go shallow and also didn't just bomb it, they put it to the advantage of our forwards more often than not.

          2. Bailey William's might've just added some more coin to his free agency value. I hope we keep him.

          3. Maybe not huge on the stat sheet, but I really thought JJ's game was his best for quite a while.

            Very good win, but that suggests we will see a lot more.

              1. English is the best running ruckman in the comp.
              2. McLean's career is at the crossroads.
              3. One of these days Arthur Jones will light up a forward line.

                1. Without Bont we look lost
                2. We?re a better team than Freo
                3. Good win, we should be 4-2

                  1. Adam Treloar is a very good footballer. Off a limited preseason preparation he has been outstanding. It’s amazing what players can do when played in their natural positions.

                  2. A healthy and fit Bont is the best player in the comp. If plays like that we win a lot more than we lose. It’s a gift form God that we get to see him run around in the hoops every week.

                  3. We have dropped our heads and lost confidence many times when we fail to convert goals. I thought they would get a big run on after Lobb missed that goal and they went coast to coast to close the gap to three goals. However, we showed a lot of maturity to keep preserving even when we were not getting just reward to eventually get the results our midfield dominance deserved.

                    1. What?s a game of chance to you to him is one of real skill. In the first game all year where our ball movement has looks on, Freo actually only ever looked good moving the ball on a turnover and seem like they have no idea how to do it from a set piece. Better them than us.

                    2. Hahahahahahah how is Rory Lobb bullying even real just close your eyes and walk away. Those Freo weirdsman turning their backs on him taking a shot at goal are probably the grimmest guys I?ve ever seen at the footy.

                    3. Marra isn?t Buddy he?s hotter Jack Gunston

                      1, we scored goals when we lead and kick to space. Not bomb it in to the goal square

                      2, Weightman is just so important to that guests line

                      1, We still need a goal kicking coach. I even settle for the forwards just practicing set shot kicking
                      BB.

                      Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.

                          NGL that was more for you to pick up than it was about the game.

                            1. When the whole team turn on and apply the squeeze, we are still a very good team.

                            2. Bontempelli is sublime. Trying to pick up the slack when he's off the ground is almost impossible.

                            3. Players must hate it when 'roving Brian' approaches their partner after the game. Last night JJ's didn't hold back when asked what she thought of his game. "... he plays well when played in his correct position." Oh dear.

                              1. Liam Jones is better than I can recall and all this hoo ha about player ages is wrong
                              2. Lobb has been disappointing. He missed goals and didnt compete like I hoped.
                              3. If that is what Bailey Williams is capable of I want more of it.
