Because he goes for Freo?
Our record with top 8 sides vs bottom 9 sides is pretty telling
We are downhill skiers for the most part

You dont lose a flat track tag by winning by less. You lose it by beating top 8 sides

No, he doesn't have a point.
The aim of the game is to f'n win, get the 4pts, so the other mob were carp, stiff s!%t, they were our opponents and we won.

What on earth are you rambling on about
Of course the purpose is to win every game. But the fact is that whenever we come up against opposition higher than us on the ladder we are outclassed time and time again
Thats all the Freo poster was trying to say in a sarcastic sort of manner

You are perpetuating the stupidity. Tell me the margin required to lose the 'flat track bully' tag exactly

The Freo poster was joking to point out that we are flat track bullies
He wasnt honestly saying that we should have lost by less today

Anything under 17.5 points would've taken you one grade down from matt hayden vs zim at the waca to something similar to brad hodge's double ton at thewaca.

A 9.73 point win over GWS this week would really make things interesting.

 

[elsleevador]

No doubt you will pick on those poor little gws boys. Im tipping a 100 point win for you if they finish 9th and a 20 point loss if they finish 8th.

Haven't you Cockburn Dockers fans got better things to do? Like stare at your empty trophy cabinet? Or look out through the premiership window that's already slammed shut...

Top of the ladder in April. Good luck muppet.

The aim of the game is actually to win premierships. To build a team capable of doing so is the first part of that.

Winning meaningless games v poor opponents is often pay off the requirement but you have to have premierships as the goal.

Did today advance us down that path? Only to the extent that we saw Duggan look like a genuine footballer in the making. Which is a positive. Otherwise, a lot of the the same weaknesses, mediocre skill and genuine averageness were I display a touch too much.

Do you even logic?

Thanks everyone. Head over to the positives and negatives thread to dissect the game.
