Game Day 2024 Round 09 Freo v Swans @ Optus @ 8:30 PM

[the hypnotoad]

Gee Omeara has had a solid career and all, but not what it looked like being

he lost his best because of the knee injury, lost two seasons when a rising star at the suns, it hurt them and he left ... never as good since, but he can still play a bit ... always felt a bit sorry for him and the suns

Serong in the change rooms looking intently into space wishing he was drafted by the team he barracked for as a kid.

 

[The King!]

Horne Francis plays for frees

 

[MF]

Jordon nullified Clarke and got his own back the other way. Impressed with him

What a great trading period we had. All 3 players making an immediate and significant impact.

 

[The King!]

I prefer slower first quarters to the second

 

[Dan87]

Clark 5 disposals (1 kick) at 60%
0 marks
0 rebound 50
0 inside 50
1 score involvement


Jordon 9 disposals at 100%
4 marks
1 inside 50
4 score involvements

He's savvy and can finish

Good height bit of marking bit of link up

Will pump out 150 games for us

Really interesting structural play going on.

Chad played most of the 2nd Q as the deepest forward & quite often he had the whole 50 to himself. He’s been sensational as a full forward.

Freo playing ultra-aggressive run & carry, but they’re being exposed on the turnover.

Jordon spending a lot of time pestering Hayden Young. Doing a fine job.

Swans don’t seem to mind Serong getting a heap of it - Rowy hasn’t been sent to him at all.

Young? They said on the coverage it was Clark? Who is shutting down Clark?

Yep, he seemed as hyped as Harley Reid is now, but those injuries derailed his career quite a lot. Can definitely see a player in him, but what could've been if not for those cruel injuries.

 

[JZ_Skitzo]

I have only one thing to say to Juzzie. Just play the bloody game.

What's the issue with McInerney?

 

[The King!]

3-4 goals our way needed to seal it

they can still come back

can't slack off

Jordan is shutting them both down. He's just that good.

JPK, McGlynn, Mummy & Jetta feel about it.

Maybe also unlucky destination wise

 

[The King!]

I thought Jordon would be the 4th best of the newbies by a mile. Very wrong

He and Parker would make a lethal combo in the VFL

 

[Nuggetz]

Posting in the gameday thread is wild. You don't think, just post. I've posted about 10 times & read maybe 2-3 posts from other people. This is fun.

flipping lolz

 

[GoulburnSwan]

Port going to choke ?

Nah they’ll win

 

[Dubai Quacker]

Young? They said on the coverage it was Clark? Who is shutting down Clark?

Jordon spent time on Clarke, that’s true. But hes also spent time on Young - who has had minimal impact (and seems to have been off the ground quite a bit too).

I saw Wicks on Clarke at one stage.

Will keep a close eye on it in the 3rd Q!

 

[Tedeski]

Port are useless letting them back in.

 

[Cadsky]

Serong might be a ball magnet but he hasn't been damaging with the ball at all

 

[the hypnotoad]

Yes, I was not expecting Jordon to be as good as he has been when we traded for him.

same ... he's better as an all-round footballer than i ever thought, and he's tough
he and mcinerney, you wouldn't think to look at them but they're very strong, resilient physical players, and both with a touch of class

 

[ashep]

You don't think, just post.

Words to live by.

 

[Swansujelly]

Melican also quietly having a good game

 

[Nuggetz]

The way he just plucked it so casually inspired me

I still don't know what it means
