Autopsy Round 2 vs Fremantle @ Metricon: March 31st 2019 Sunday 4:40pm AEDT

freo's forward line of lobb, mccarthy, hogan and taberner. that is some serious height. getting flashbacks when kolo played third defender against an opposition team like this and we got rolled. not sure if collins, hombsch and ballard will be able to cope, no clue who goes on the fourth tall forward. ****.

 

[Young_Guns]

Brodie on stand by in case Swallow doesn’t get through a fitness test/training presumably?
Holman for Ainsworth the obvious choice.

Surprised Hogan just missed the 1 game after that incident....

Don't really believe Freo will go with 4 talls. If Hogan does play, some one is going out.

Burgess can move back if needed. Lukosius too, played well there against Swans in the last qtr.

Hogan might play a fair way up field. Depends on his fitness.

Agree , let them gain some AFL experience.

I wasn't sure where to post this.

Sorry guys, it's another media "personality" providing their weekly tips.

Gold Coast vs Fremantle (Metricon) Fox 4:40pm

Poor Dockers fans. Their season doesn’t really begin until round three, but at least they can watch open training again with Fox Footy agreeing to broadcast it.

There’s a video on afl website Wayne Carey tipped freo but said suns are a chance.. surely he’ll get into trouble for saying that the suns are any chance

 

[Camsta]

Remember the last time we were certain to lose we beat Sydney away - might be the underdogs but don’t underestimate us

 

[Peel67skin]

If they don't handball backwards to teammate that is an improvement.

 

[SunnerSS]

I hope they do play 4 talls forward. I trust our interceptors to bring the ball to ground and then theyre too top heavy. Hanley, harbrow and Murdoch would blitz them.

You got the first point right but Hanley , harbrow and Murdoch not really good user of the ball .

Speed dude speed

Speed dude speed

Speed without skill just not going to cut it , look at Collingwood play today .They can slow it down or play it fast .

some thoughts on the game
sextons severely underrated in the afl.
our midfield bats deep enough.
Play brodie, fyfe and mundy are both 192cm mids. Fyfe is listed at 96kg 2 less than Sam Collins so I think out of you inside mids brodie has the best chance and its good experiance.

looking at your line up gold coast are 2 more drafts and 3 years away from finals all your future guns are to young. but that young core sounds like a good bunch fiorini, weller, miller, rankine, bowes, brodie, powell, king, McLennan, likosius, corbett.
But I will say this I think you've done a decent job so far at drafting and the rebuild.
Long term heart and soul captain is a major positive.

lets hope its a good game

Plenty of arrogance over on the Freo board, not sure why they think it’s warranted.

Didn't think it was all that arrogant to be honest if we're talking about the Gold Coast vs Fremantle thread. Most comments were along the line of 'keen to see how they go' against us but 'didn't think it would be an easy win at Metricon'.

I can see why they would be though. 82 point demolition of North Melbourne without Hogan in looks like a promising season. Need to stop Fyfe from impacting if we're going to stand a chance imo

 

[Supersuns]

Only one change for Sunday, Holman in for Ainsworth. Expect Brodie to be non playing emergency to cover Swallow if he pulls out last minute

 

[Scotty_222]

In: Holman
Out: Ainsworth

 

[MadMundy]

I come in peace, looking forward to what should be an interesting game. Watched you guys last week against the Saints and thought you looked real good, It seems you're progressing better than what the media gives you credit for. Best of luck guys

This is not a Mini GF

But in reality it is. We need to find a way despite being $3.50 outsiders.

GC locals please get to this game

With Bodsy on this one - get behind the boys! First home game of the year. Come out in force and make lots of noise for the SUNS.

Burgess played his entire career until now down back

 

[Bush_Chook]

Hoping for a good game from both sides, definitely will be an interesting game for both of us to watch- good way to see where both our teams are at this season.
