Langdon you tool!

You're over-rating him.

I was looking up some stuff on twitter earlier in the week and saw George Grljusich's idiot son was posting to Zempilis's breakfast rumours about Jesse Hogan breaking his foot and being pissed at the Perth Cup.


Also, coach will be answering some selected questions via twitter

Of course, is there any other way with him.

In a lengthy rant on Twitter, Langdon forecast the Dockers were due for more pain.
“Character is far more important than talent, nothing has changed at Fremantle,” Langdon wrote.
“Sylvia, Anthony, Bennell, McCarthy, Yarran, Simpson, Matera all unfortunately to this point have failed and watch their misery continue. They have only themselves to blame.”
Langdon said the Demons’ willingness to trade Hogan left questions unanswered.
“Why doesn’t everyone ask why Melbourne were so willing to let him go, when on Brownlow Medal night Glen Bartlett declared on 6PR he was going nowhere, he put his house on it,” he said.
“They all lie, the industry lacks integrity. It’s disgraceful.”

Adam Cerra media conference on the club app. He's added on 3kg, expects to play half back and midfield. Spoke positively about Tom North.

At first I thought you were talking about Ed. Am out of the loop at the moment.

An article based on a chat with Ross Lyon from Nick Bowen @ AFL. Most of the stuff is in the injury thread. Casts quite a bit of uncertainty about how many games Jesse Hogan will play for Fremantle in 2019.

Perhaps 6PR's employment policy for selecting its broadcasters is that of chosing people without integrity,talent, who are batently biased and full of shit.... they nailed it when they employed Karl

I actually thought Langdon made some good points in this rant, particularly about the lack of integrity in the industry. I really don't understand what all the fuss is about Karl on this forum, he's a radio presenter who calls it as he sees it, if you don't agree with him then ring up and challenge him!

He talks some shit on sports shows but I actually like his radio commentary for games.

 

[Marty Whitelaw]

Clubs, agents and players are under no obligation to tell media figures the ins and outs of contract/trade negotiations. Those like Langdon and Whateley who are quick to get up on their high horse and accuse coaches, players and club officials of lacking integrity are nauseating in their hypocrisy.

Bartlett a good lawyer and person. Ten times more credibility than Langdon.

Langdon is a mouthpiece for the Eagles, his commentary is biased bull shit. Only an Eagles supporter would give him ANY credibility.

Here we go again, the classic match just started on 7mate.

1998, Round 2, Adelaide 167 - Fremantle 74

Why does WA keep getting this gift from Channel 7? (I remembered posting here when they featured the same game just over a year ago) its not like it is being shown in SA.

Jono's Back!

Jono's Back!

Other supporters will try to make us feel like we have little to nothing to be proud of as Freo supporters ... but during our short history as a club, we have had an extremely strong indigenous presence and that's something I reckon Freo can be very proud of.
I switched from being a West Coast supporter as soon as I heard Neesham was going to be the inaugural coach and I have had zero regrets in making that decision. Some of my best football memories have come from Freo's indigenous players.
And once again, I am proud to see the Fremantle football club reward one of our great indigenous loyal servants with further support and employment. I hope he does a great job continuing to provide similar support to current and future indigenous players because I (we) love watching them display their AFL skills in the purple jumper.

Got to say, the media team has been on point this off-season. There are frequent articles on Freo on the afl.com website and seems almost daily there is something on Freo popping up somewhere
