we somehow find a way to lose when we are surprisingly winning?

Can't be retro if it has been happening for our entire existence.

Quartermaine is being a bit harsh IMO. To do what Quartermaine wants Walters has to gather a bouncing ball, turn blindly, then make a decision whether to kick to a 2 on 1 or go for goal from 50m on his non preferred all in a fraction of a second.

Worth noting that Walters then gets a clear handball away, but Vlastuin gathers the ball and stops expecting a free kick. Logue come in a tackles Vlastuin causing him to drop the ball, a clear free kick.

A 2 on 4 in the Freo forward line. I think I've seen this movie before...

Ahhhh cryptically clever

In this instance I'd blame Colyer for that. He receives the ball running towards the far side wing, but decides to turn back to the near side wing. If he kept going to the far side we had 4 on 2 at the far side half forward line.

There was a crazy stat, that he has played in every 200 game milestone match for Freo players.

Hello Freo family, apologies for going off topic and asking a question that's probably been asked a million times.
Is there a particular pub that Freo supporters go to when we play at docklands?
A few of us were over there some years ago, when we played Melbourne there, we stumbled across the wharf hotel and thought to ourselves that perhaps Freo supporters would congregate there. It was quite the opposite, as there was a sea of red and blue, with past and current players as guest speakers. Safe to say we got some dirty looks dressed in purple after a Freo victory

I’m still incredibly bummed that most including myself missed out on the Retro Tracksuit Jacket, would there be any chance of a restock I wonder.

Got mine today. Looks good but it's very cheaply made. One thin layer of fabric, no inner lining or anything.

Well the team had no inner lining during those times too

It's different. Different style and design. Why don't we have a version like that available? Seems other clubs do?

We worked with playcorp to make ours suitable for our retro round and to make it as close as possible to the old one

Those older ones have regularly sold for $350+ when they have been available (rarely) over the past couple of years

Club knows it would sell at $150, demand for our retro stuff is bonkers and the club knows it

Though the special buses won’t be running beforehand, they will all run after the game for 45 minutes.

If Walters plays the next 4, touchwood, he’s playing game
200th v GWS.

No idea where the club is going with this but I love the description:

"Three men from the future get sucked into a wormhole and wind up in the present year, 1998. With the help of three teenagers, they try to find a way back to their own time while masquerading as high school students. "
