Autopsy AFL 2024 Round 3 - Freo v Crows Fri March 29th 7:30pm AEDT/4:30pm WST (OS)

[Zevon]

Can we get the Freo vs Carlton up early for next week please? Feel like I should get in early for this one.

Will ask you for a tip the moment it goes up

 

[Mesc]

Something is Amiss

I hope it didnt take you long to come up with that.

 

[andreww90]

so Freo have beaten

Lions 0 wins
North 0 wins
Crows 0 wins

right?

lol what is the point you are even trying to make?

Yes how dare Fremantle beat the teams they are scheduled to play. What a bizarre argument you are trying to make.

Same argument idiots are making against Carlton

Your team wins are all against teams who have not won a game.

Moronic logic

 

[Juddernaut08]

lot of media pundits had the crows as top 8 likely and top 4 potential

seems theyre not functioning well, their forwardline has gone from best in the league to pretty average

what changed?

 

[ibd77]

what changed?

Expectations, does strange things to teams that show promise. Like our meandering from 2015.

Who's arguing?

I just asked a question. You lot sure are sensitive

Moronic logic

Do you often refer to statements of fact, as moronic logic?

 

[YeoShuey]

Maybe I didn’t make myself that clear. I’m not arguing about the statement of fact that you made. I am arguing about the imputation behind your post that a team is no good because of those wins. That’s the moronic logic part of it.

what changed?

Horrible Midfield.

Go look at their 1st round picks from 2009-19. they missed out on some mids.

Crazy to say that in the 2017 AFL grand final, Crows could of had Dangerfield, Sloane, Fyfe, Brad Hill and Lachie neale as their starting mids.

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

what changed?

Nicks decided to implement a defensive game plan. Has completely destroyed any run off half back. It’s all man on man scrubbing footy now. Vomit.

 

[Freo]

That made my eyes bleed

Crows season is done

Freo will be lucky to make top 10 based on that

Fingernail deep analysis right there.

 

[Freo]

what changed?

Correction, their forward line was smashed by Fremantle's backs

 

[Purple Jesus]

Both teams are woeful

Rich coming from the Edge.

 

[Freomaniac]

Crows missing finals again then

If that's the case, then it's 7 years in a row of no finals.

Their previous record was 3 years from 1994-6

 

[Red Bull]

And this Neanderthal is still running the show …

 

[Osho]

Unpopular opinion.
Freo's defence and structures are pretty damn good. Skills and smoother linking from back to front will come, it's still early in the season. They have good talent across the park. They'll be very good when it starts clicking. Fancy winning by 6 goals operating at 75%.

One thing that han't changed, vast majority of pundits are plain wrong, the average punter using their own observations and shawn of bias for their own team can do just fine making assessments of teams fortunes. The AFL is run by shysters, and commentated on by potatos.

has declared there is significant improvement left in his in-form group if they ... embrace the "boredom and monotony" of the season ahead.

Says it all, really.

 

[chaddy22]

Freo fans would be happy 3-0,
Deplorable standard of skills.
Time will tell how good Freo is as the opposition Freo have faced have been poor.

 

[Andyy]

so Freo have beaten

Lions 0 wins
North 0 wins
Crows 0 wins

right?

What a silly post.

Lions are expected to be top 4 again.

We know North stinks.

Crows on the rebuild too but you can only beat who you're fixtured to play lol.

Just out of interest, what did you mean by writing lol at the end. Always fascinated me.

Man the crows are s**t

Does this logic also apply to GWS, Port and Carlton?

 

[Piggy Smalls]

right?

You do realise Carlton and Port’s opponents this season are all winless too? A percentage of 140 plus indicates we are doing what good sides do and beating lower ranked sides comfortably.
