Game Day Fremantle vs Geelong - Simonds Stadium 11.10AM WST

[ilikepotatoes]

Really impressive half. Great effort but forward line is letting us down a bit. Really didn't need to concede that last goal either.

Don't think this will last, and I have no expectation, but really enjoying it.


Give Sean Darcy a 10 year contract please.

 

[PowerToThePurpl]

Wellni didn't think I'd lose my $20 1-39 margin bet because we win by 40+....

 

[believe_it]

Seriously need to find a way to stop coughing up goals in the last minutes. Happened time and again this year

 

[ydraw]

Geez we've missed Ballas this year. Absolutely moronic to suggest he should go back through the WAFL. The MC knows what's up.

You realise he did go back through the WAFL right? He played WAFL 3 weeks ago before going off injured.

 

[IAMJUNGLEMUFFIN]

McCarthy never seems to be in front when the ball is heading in his direction

He's been in front for at least half a dozen contests where it's gone over the back, so I don't know what you're watching.

 

[Freoforever86]

Positives though.

Logue cox Deluca all have had a good impact and plenty of signs they can make it

Darcy has been enormous. Absolute find for us. Should play the rest of the season Ruck forward with Sandi so we at least have one tall target that can make a contest.

Suban holding danger wel

Neale and hill bros solid

Blakely wearing a glove. What the?

 

[Gussman]

Normally we start games really slow. Really encouraged by this first half.

 

[Grape Bear]

Darcy is <3

 

[Freo Big Fella]

Very encouraging (despite leaking the easy two goals at the end.)

Still the standard Hillbilly Hollow screwjob umpiring to contend with in the second half though.

 

[believe_it]

Fully expecting to still lose but some exciting signs with Darcy and Deluca

 

[Kram]

McCarthy should be bringing every ball to ground..he's doing nothing

People need to realise the bloke is not a key forward.

 

[Unique Name]

McCarty keeps trying to get it over the back. Kersten is literally nowhere near it at all. At least Taberner brings it to ground

Yep he needs to attempt the mark. Let the crumbers doing the crumbing.

 

[Tbonefreo]

Darcy will replace sandi just fine. We have a keeper here.

Luke Ryan. A couple of dropped marks and missed tackles.

Deluca having a crack

Cox doing some nice things. Pace is finding him out a little.

Weller and Blakely solid.

I am happy. Now to finish the pussys off

 

[Big Animal]

obviously surprising scoreline at present but still our piss weak tackles and ability to drop chest marks is just ridiculous and make me think we don't look convincing at walking away with the win.

hoping their small bench evens out the lack of fitness of our juniors to run ot the game

 

[Clown Prince]

And there goes the journeyman career of Jon Griffin....
Has been a solid player when given his chances, but Darcy has proved in 1 half of footy that he deserves to be the 1st understudy to Sandi. Great game so far by the young fella.
Ballas, Son-Son & MJ all leading from the front.
I fully expect the Handbaggers to come back & probably run over us in the 2nd half, but that was a great half & a good glimpse to the future with a few of the young guys going very well.

 

[PowerToThePurpl]

How good has Josh Deluca been! Debut game and he looks like he's played over 100 for us. What a massive positive.

 

[ydraw]

Great that we didn't give up a lead in the first quarter so we've put ourselves in position where we can win.

Darcy has been a great find. Not sure he has the tank to run the game out like this but we've defintely got something to work with there.

Kersten is a spud and should be dropped for Taberner.

 

[sansian]

Positives though.

Logue cox Deluca all have had a good impact and plenty of signs they can make it

Darcy has been enormous. Absolute find for us. Should play the rest of the season Ruck forward with Sandi so we at least have one tall target that can make a contest.

Michael Jackson tribute?

 

[basashi]

We are a fit team and they lack rotations.

That said... the umpiring did seem to turn a bit of a corner a few minutes before the end of the quarter.

 

[heavho]

Darcy has been brilliant but his fitness still isn't 100% but that's to be expected playing in nearly every stoppage in his first afl game . Hope he can get his breathe back and pull back a good lead in the 3rd. Cox showing a few good signs and Ryan too. Kersten and McCarthy need a rocket from Ross need way more effort from them

 

[ChimpaWompa]

beats being blown out in the first 10 minutes of the game pretty comfortably. Will probably grind to a halt in the second half tho.

 

[PintofPale]

Nathan who?

 

[believe_it]

Darcy 24 hit outs and 9 disposals in his first half of AFL - outstanding

 

[TheInjuryFactory]

Mr Darcy has arrived!

 

[PintofPale]

Gotta be a chance to pick up a rising star nom this round - Cox or Darcy?
