Are Fremantle dark horses in Season 2025?

[PowerfulPies2023]

Well?

 

[fnerd]

Well?

No

 

[PowerfulPies2023]

No

Why Not?

 

[Big Animal]

Isn't Nick Daicos good! And that Sam Darcy, what a target up forward...

 

[RonnieRaven]

No chance in hell
It will be one of the experienced champion teams
Flagpies,
Geelong (premiership) Cups
Back2Back lions.
If there’s a dark horse its the

Hip Hok ballers

Only in the sense in that we're probably playing finals but we're not Geelong, Collingwood or Brisbane.

They have won a recent flag... Freo should be hungry for success! last hurrah for Fyfe, never won a flag etc etc

I agree with most finals yes but not premiership level. Still have had a good season this far and underdog status so yes a dark horse. Not for the flag though.

Freo finishing ninth might cause some problems.

If theres one team that can win it from 9th, it's Fremantle.

At this stage fyfe is probably a 5% chance of playing in a gf. Did his calf warming up yesterday

 

[Corn Cobbers]

Some serious talent there, really should be contending, don't have any holes

A lot of their good players have upside, still young

Shocking fade out last year, need a top 6 finish to atone

 

[PowerfulPies2023]

Serong is class. How old is he?

Got to be in it to wi...Oh wait

Shouldn't be. Lyon has shown the rest of the comp how to deal with Freo.

Freo rolled over in the first meeting though and didn't try for most of of second. They're looking after him for when he returns.

 

[Grumpyshades]

Freo are Premiership favorites

will smash Cwood in a few weeks

Stunning analysis.

Oh boy we want one, and the hungers there I just don’t think we are mature enough to not drop our heads when a few calls don’t go away or get caught up in playing in front of 90+k.
We were deer in head lights against the pies in 22 in front of 90k of pies supporters and our age an experience has gone backwards.

Agreed. Can't see you mixing it with most of the top 8 tbh in a final. Not away from home.

 

[PowerfulPies2023]

If finals were played today

Pies vs cats - Pies
Lions vs crows Lions
Hawks vs suns hawks
Dockers vs dogs dogs

Cats vs hawks cats
Crows vs dogs crows

Pies vs crows Pies
Lions vs cats Lions

Pies vs Lions 50/50

Neither could dogs crows suns and hawks win out of their home state
That’s why it’s the three teams I said

We beat them in a final before
We beat them this year I think the media has got to you on dogs.
I believe they are still flaky like the rest of the lower half of the 8

 

[HBFlanker]

Really like the Dockers.

Not only for this year but years to come.

Wouldnt shock me at all if Serong wins the brownlow.

Nah what it is is that bont wasn't playing last time vs you? Pretty sure. I remember the come back in 2022 from 41 points down. Agreed they're overrated by many but I feel if bont plays he'd be the difference it was close last time and 1st qtr I don't know how you guys stuck with them.
