Maybe you should make yourself clearer in that case. Even career wise he’s probably got you covered.

How dare he not be as good as Suckling in his second year! Peaheart!
Fully aware of the "don't play the man" policy, but * it, I'll wear one for the team.
You're a dick.

Mate what’s your bent against Murph did he kill your cat or something
way to go with those yankee jokes.......yeehaarrr
Not so much turning points but costly errors include - Crippa kicking across the backline for a turnover goal, Fishers missed set shot from 40m out, Weitering playing the ball out when he had team mates yelling for it, and not playing Ed in the midfield from the start.
The above errors were more disappointing than one miskick from a second year player who’s kicking was otherwise spot on.

i don't post for likes,
Bambi has never been paid big money to play football professionally,
Murphy is a player of a club whom i support , which I'm a paid up member.
i have a right to type what i believe are my thoughts on a player, a team and what direction they are taking.
If i was posting for likes id pull the piss out your vocabulary..

Late to the anti Murphy party for you but still no less predictable.

That's also true for most of our boys last night, unfortunately.
Not to mention, Murphy is 5'10 and weighs 80kgs soaking wet and holding a brick. For his size, he's not that bad.
Doesn't mind going in to grab the footy and risk getting creamed by the bigger opposition players either (which has caused him numerous injuries over the years). And when he manages to escape with the ball, watch out.

I think most people are already over the agenda driven anti Murphy garbage. Nearly every impartial poster has noted how important he was in the second half when moved on to the ball except for those who already had made up their minds.

I'll get you a tissue mate.
Big frizz, Murph is exceptional when he has the ball in hand.
its when he hasn't got the ball in hand worries me.
he gets brushed aside to easily, he can't tackle....
Why do people just look for what he does wrong? He helped get us back into the game, was a massive part of it.
You’d be fapping over jsos having such an impact on a game, which he’s never done.
People have a preference for hard working battlers over guys with skill, who get treated more harshly.
We are nowhere near the stage where murph isn’t best 22, partly due to development and partly due to the fact we have too many talls on our list still, so lack of competition for his spot.
Harry needs to be better with his body positioning, both when one on one particularly by holding his man out of the line of the fall of the ball then pushing off for his own advantage and also not getting pushed off and under too easily with the incoming ball around the packs, his doing extremely well for the small amount of games his played so far, I'd like to think when his game improves over the next 50 games his contested game should go through the roof to another level. Harry and Charlie are going to be just awesome to watch...

After rewatching the final 10 minutes we really needed some composure at the end. We had heaps more time for the final goal but didn't play like it, which was probably our undoing in the end. In particular Samo twice could have hit up short passes but bombed it long, likewise Murph who could have hit someone up in the centre for our last charge forward.
Those were also the moments though for Harry or particularly McGovern to take a big pack mark, after having both done little all night. Neither of them took it.
Really disappointing because it could have restored so much confidence heading into the bye. Instead it's another close enough but not good enough game to further eat away at their confidence.
We don't have much currency to add to this group now, so this is largely the group we'll be heading into next year with. We need to regroup over the bye and come home strong to give us something to take into the preseason and next year.

All of those maybe discussed but can’t see any changes for freo unless there’s injuries or some weird team balance change, but it seemed fine last night.
Wonder what we will do if Jones is right?
Surely not? He can not do bad things!

Team Captain
Exceptional? Yes in his early years. The past few years his kicks fall at his team mates' feet, not all the time, but often enough to put undue pressure on his team mates, or, to cause turn overs. The club has never dropped him, to make him show his improvement in the reserves. His good mate Gibbs is struggling at a good club and in the reserves. Murph is not the future. Coming back from a rib injury missing 3 or 4 weeks, he should have played with Northern and then hit the game full on, so not wasting a half of football before finding some form.
It’s like some here are angered he had a big 2nd half as it stuffed up their narrative about him.
So weird, I thought LOB may of been a likely bust but I’m more than happy that he’s gone well over the past 2 weeks.
Why do people see being proven right as more important than the team doing well?
As any opposition fans who they’d rather playing for their side next week if given the choice between murph and jsos, 99.9% would say murph.
I compare the 2 because most of the murph bashers are big on JSOS and his pressure and defensive acts.
