Dude, you have some serious hate issues. Why so much negativity? Did some Fremantle players steal your Tonka truck in the sand pit whilst you were in kindergarten or something? Lol

You have already been outed as a troll

Jog on lightweight

Lightweight? You're kidding me? No idea who I am, what I've achieved or what I'm worth. The results might surprise you!

 

[bzparkes]

You make a good point. Your team has managed to prove us wrong thus far, and kudos to them for that. All I wonder though, is whether it was worth trading a collection of blue chip stocks for one Tim Kelly, in an all or nothing attempt at glory. It could backfire. We to will have to wait and see.

He's still young and draft picks are no guarantee of future success. One only needs to look at Carlton's recent history, and they've tried both the draft and trades.

I'm less concerned about the draft this year due to COVID anyway as who knows what kind of impact that will have.

Fair enough. As I said, only time will tell, and you're correct, the debate regarding trading, as opposed to successive draft investment, will continue to rage on.

What an achievement, winning against a team with 9 of its best 22 out.

For the tenth time ?
In a row ?

 

[Corkintheocean]

Why are the derbys so underwhelming compared to the showdowns?

I'll give you a (purple) hint.

The troubling thing for Freo is, while they hide behind injuries as an excuse for their loss, only Fyfe and Hogan from their midfield and forward line were missing and they still got smashed in these areas. Theyre going nowhere fast

We've won seven in a row before...streaks are really not of importance.

Margetts freos best player

Yeah, ONLY Fyfe...the reigning two time Brownlow medallist...

Full rebuilds announced to the world are just an inbuilt excuse
Absolute fools gold

We were missing Shuey. Your midfield is the worst in the comp and with Fyfe, Walters getting on the future looks bleak. You’ve got nothing coming through to replace them

I'm sorry, but this argument is just a laugh. Shuey is not even remotely close to Fyfe. He's a good player, yes, but not in the same league.

 

[Numero Uno]

Fyfe played the last derby and freo kicked 2 goals

 

[bh90210fan]

And your midfield is still the worst in the league with Fyfe in it. Alarm bells

5 Goal win to Eagles.

Almost as good as a win for Freo.

10 derbies in a row, and no sign of the streak breaking anytime soon.

You were obviously watching a different game.

Well played by the Eagles, but seriously was it that convincing ?.

Freo are improving (playing better than most thought at start of season) + injuries. Eagles had their best 21 players on the ground.

 

[bh90210fan]

Fyfe played last derby and freo kicked 2 goals

But I think they were missing tucker that game

 

[WaywardSonSon]

Typical response that doesn't address my point.

 

[Big_Birdy]

Why are the derbys so underwhelming compared to the showdowns?

Because Fremantle are involved

 

[Avalor]

Introduce the crowds and the umpiring just slips further down in standards

Oh it was that Eagle's noise of affirmation again, I assume. From a crowd of 90% free supporters, that's a job well done.

 

[masai]

As I said early in the thread, a 30 point win to the Eagles would be considered par.

At the game, I was talking to some Eagles supporters after the game and we had a good natured discussion. We all agreed that the Freo team had holes, and the Eagles team should have on paper creamed the Dockers. In reality it was a stalemate, what did the game prove that we didn’t know at the start ?.

Par.

 

[MadMundy]

Are we really still taking shots at each other? Game is over, West Coast had the better team, Fremantle has some holes to fill but it's not an excuse at the end of the day. Shake hands and move on to the next game.
