199

[ImperialPurple]

This week is Hase's 150th.

Next week, I believe, is Shauny Mac's 200th.

 

[bfff]

I can't think of two better reasons to win two in a row.

 

[shibz_1989]

Subi is going to go off! Wouldn't it be awesome if Shaun kicks a goal just like Parker's in his 200th?

 

[estibador]

I must admit Macca's never been a particular favourite of mine but it would be great to see him hit 200. Would he be only the second Freo player to make it after Parks?

 

[prattsta]

yeah parker is the only guy to play 200 for freo

 

[newlander77]

Drop Macca and bring in Ibbotson. Time for the new breed! Macca has been playing terrible footy!

 

[estibador]

Have a heart wombat, at least let him get to 200.

I'd have Webster and Dunn in front of Ibbo anyway.

Interesting...

Let him get to 200... he deserves it.

But we do need a new breed. How much longer do we rely on McManus and Cook doing the hard work in the middle?

Let's play some of the younger midfielders and see what they are made of.

 

[newlander77]

We're 0-3. You have to think with your head and not your heart in situations like these. Ibbo & Dunn have to be considered.

There's no one else

Brace yourselves for the barrage from eagle fans with the usual "200 games of mediocrity", "Freo will never win a premiership with blokes like McManus and Parker in the team" etc etc ad nauseum

I think you have to think with your head, and not your 'bottom' in times like these. I'm not sure I'd back in two rookies against a 199 game veteran who is averaging 20 disposals a week, is pretty quick, and has the body to take a fair battering. Ibbo still won't have completed a full-load pre-season at this stage. He's be lucky to crack 80Kg.

In any case, neither have been picked.

I will never forget that, one of the best goals I've ever seen! Dodged his way through like 3 Carlton players and then kicked a goal on the run form 50, freaking awesome, all the way from fullback! And I believe he kept his opponent (mighta been Fev) goalless that day.

 

[Borry]

I think Parker has to play 19 games this year to get to his 250th. If he does it will be a fantastic achievement to do all that in the Freo guernsey.

"So, Parker, how often do you kick more goals then your opponent?"

How about the ....nah i'll wait til he plays his 200th. Then we can sing his praises

 

[dominguez]

McManus was one of our best against port, and certainly hasn't been our worst player the last fortnight. Deserves his spot in the side, but may struggle when we get a few back.

 

[Purple Passion]

Can someone please youtube Parker's goal i haven't seen it in a long time

I remember it didn't even get a nomination for goal of the week
How often to fullbacks weave through traffic and kick goals on the run whilst holding their opponents quiet?!!?!?!

Yeah but how often do Freo goals get nominated for goal of the week?

Parker would've had to run the length of the field with Fev on his back, taken mark of the year over the point post, dummied back through traffic to outside 50, dyed his hair blonde while swapping jumpers with his opponent, then kicked a left foot banana torpedo from the boundry line while talking to the coach on the phone. Then maybe he could've got a nomination. But a flukey snap from an Ess player 30m out straight in front would've still won.

 

[legitimatic]

You raise a sound point.

 

[Shaymuhz]

its difficult to think of a more deserving player than mcmanus. his courage both through adversity (doing his knee twice and the 2005 form slump) and under fire (running with the flight of the ball, his goal after being flattened by wirrpunda) have been an inspiration to the team. he will always be one of my favourites.

congratulations to a great footballer that typifies prefectly the fremantle football club.

edit: sorry for the double post

Congrats to Haselby on his milestone and also to Mcmanus on reaching 200 for all that is said about him you have to be doing something right to get to 200, seems like a good guy and even though he is a shark it will be good to see him get the milestone .
