Don't be shame, discuss the game!

 

[Randomizor]

All the biased umpiring in the world couldn’t help the blues in this one.

Freo by 63 (if we stay in first gear)

[My Tilly]

Freo by 100 and Voss to be immediately sacked.

 

[Randomizor]

Freo by 100 and Voss to be immediately sacked.

That’s harsh, think Patrick will score a few goals

 

[cactuscall]

Freo by 100 and Voss to be immediately sacked.

If he has survived this long through this much, a flogging from Freo in Perth is hardly going to be the tipping point.

A quick welfare check on his players and avoid a last quarter fade out, it'll almost be a tick!

The Blues annoyingly seem to always play well against Freo in Perth, danger game ahead.

 

[RonnieRaven]

Looking at the blues fwd line it’s going to take a lot of free kicks, fake marks, 70m penalties and double shots on goals to kick a winning score.
But we’ve seen it all before
Freo by 3

 

[JackFlash]

Voss will be looking at another loss and wishing someone else was the boss after this game! Dockers by 62 points

 

[Xtreme]

Fremantle by 3

 

[Howard Littlejohn]

Relief for Carlton. They won't be blowing a second half lead.

 

[Mr Manager]

Should win but would consider it a danger game if the boys are complacent

 

[voorhees]

freo will flex big time

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Freo by a LOT in the end after Carlton lead at half time

You might look at the differential and just see Carlton +4. Then you look at the Freo home/Carlton away free kicks for differential and Carlton +19 free kicks in front.

Simple math, by a simple man.

Carlton by 15.

 

[timokane]

Freo by 21 points

 

[PCORF]

Fremantle to overcome a slow start and win by 20.

 

[Jatz]

Fremantle will belt us. Think this might get close to 100 points by the end of it. The club has been through the wringer and I think that'll come to bite us.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Could galvanise the side too. I expect Freo to win they are a mile better side but I won’t be surprised if it’s close for a half to 3/4

Carlton by 15.

Oh yeah true. But nobody likes Freo. It's not just a Carlton thing.

 

[Mesc]

Oh yeah true. But nobody likes Freo. It's not just a Carlton thing.

It's weird isnt it? Every Freo supporter absolutely loves Carlton.

 

[Cam Payne]

Oh yeah true. But nobody likes Freo. It's not just a Carlton thing.

Never met you, but I will instantly when I do.

 

[JPetro83]

I think Carlton are a chance here. Blues by 15

 

[rdhopkins2]

Carlton will dig in early but there’s only so long you can avoid bombardment.

Fremantle too good and 42pts.

 

[theGav56]

Oh yeah true. But nobody likes Freo. It's not just a Carlton thing.

It may be true nobody like Freo, but everybody hates the Bloooze.

 

[EBERT THE KING]

Could be really ugly
