Toast Congrats to FFC. Top spot is ours!

[im_a_lazy_sod]

Been outright top since round 4
Been equal top since round 1 (where we were 9th on percentage)

Pretty decent effort. Now let's win the ****ing flag

 

[Swan4Life]

Congratulations!! Well deserved. Been top 2 all season, what an achievement!

I find the lack of respect for Freo over the past 3 months absolutely staggering. FWIW, I cannot see you blokes missing the GF. And from there, you are always a shot.

Now I can relax guilt free on a beach with god knows how many Bintangs on my first Barrrlii experience while we have fun against Port on Saturday.

I think the commentators mentioned today that we were the first team since Essendon 99 to be on top of the ladder for 19 weeks in a row? I don't know if that sounds right though?

Either way, very proud of the club for this achievement today.

That's correct first team to be top spot for 19 weeks.

One week at a time buddy your blokes are going to be tough.

Swans are playing impressive football atm. Dare i say better than Hawks even.

 

[electricfeel]

Congratulations to the team we love. I am so happy. Could not give a single * to any of the negative nancies still being negative right now. This is a great achievement and now we can only sit back and hope we take home the cup this year.

Yeah GWS and the Saints were tough.

I think your boys will be tougher than a lot think.. See you in a fortnight.

I stand corrected

They have been playing good football though and have their mojo back, not to be taken lightly.

Good win today to wrap up the minor premiership.

Sydney over here in week one is definitely the preferred option. A win and a week off is always a big boost, but even more so this year with some very good teams in the bottom half of the 8. You wouldn't want to run into Richmond or the crows in the second week of the finals in a sudden death game. Two very good teams capable of beating anyone on their day.

Still, first things first and that's Sydney. Never forget their effort to knock off the crows in Adelaide in week 1 of the finals in 2012 when no one gave them a chance.

 

[yakka man]

Top effort all the way through. It's also great that Peel are playing finals.

 

[FUS_RO_DAH]

This pleases me, and I think that winning a premiership would be thoroughly enjoyable.

 

[PapaJ]

Very happy today. It's more symbolic than substance I suppose, but minor-premierships aren't just handed over either. It's a great feeling to have been top of the ladder most of the year and to finish there.

Well done to all players, coaching staff, supporters, the whole lot.

As happy as I am, I don't want this to be a consolation prize. Let's throw everything at this boys - bring home the big one!!

 

[13then7]

Yay! Mixed feelings about this as I woud not have been concerned in the slightest had we dropped to second. A good recognition for the boys for all their hard work. I want another crack at the GF or the season will be a disappointment.

I'm in the camp that believes that we can turn our form around quickly and a lot of our issues are to do with effort. This will double during finals and things will get back to how they were earlier in the season.

I feel players like Barlow, Mundy and Fyfe have been cruising to the finals as the do a large percentage of the grunt work. Finals reverts back to a more one on one style game and we will shine.













Trying to convince myself a little bit.

 

[basashi]

worth less than a premiership but more than a preseason premiership

 

[holy diver]

Tried to log in yesterday but ironically BF melted down as Freo finish season top of the table.

Massive achievement for the team able to grind out the close games for wins.

Now on to the game within the game with September. Lets make Subiaco the Purple graveyard for all opponents then the MCG!!!

 

[Lost_Deputy]

Stoked. In the most even comp we have seen in ages we have not been shifted from the top spot.
Hell yeah Freo!

 

[sproketman]

Another milestone accomplished under Lyon. One more to go.

 

[Tonga Bob]

Awesome achievement, and a great platform on which to attack the finals. Now for the "real season"...

 

[GilG]

At last, we're first!

 

[apuchar]

Let the games begin.

 

[TheInjuryFactory]

The mighty McClelland is ours!!!

 

[Freo Shark]

Well done Ross, boys! Been a long time to get something to keep the derby cups company. But its not over its the big one we want!
