Prediction Changes: Round 6 Vs St Kilda + Pre-match discussion

[FreoRicci]

McManus trained freaking hard too. He was awesome!

Ha. True. But coaches get put off by talented players that think they’re just going to go on being a footballer alone. Loads of players have been found out doing so.
Matera is talented sure, but gee his fitness and match conditioning is shocking this season.

 

[Freomaniac]

We don't have a hope in hell now. I heard that Dean Margetts is one of the umpires in this Freo vs saints game

 

[Freomaniac]

We got Margetts officiating also.

might as well throw $100 on the saints then

I'm a Saints fan, I'm praying Eleni isn't umpiring. She gave some dodgy ones both ways last year (2nd time); some lucky ones to us early and some sus ones to you guys late which almost gave you the win. Fyfe was a machiiiiine last time. I hope Hill has a ripper, Acres should be handy for you, although not a Hill obviously, he does use the ball better than Langdon though and he can take a decent contested mark and push forward.

Margetts & west coast have a gentlemens agreement. Magot of a man.

 

[freo1997]

Did Watson play the scratch match?

Is he a sneaky chance to come in late?

 

[yyou]

I think Carlton played Murphy in him as they wanted to expose B Hill as a poor defender with someone who used the ball well

Would Bewley run with Hilly?

Should be an interesting game in style, as Ratten Was one of the names that may have been on our list.
Saints play on, attack, and have the forward line to apply scoreboard pressure.
Freo under Ross were never comfortable with the Clarkson mantra, we shall see if things have changed?

Jesus isn't Silent Alarms IP permabanned? If not why not?

It's not Silent Alarm, this man has an aggressive anger towards millenials and SA is one haha

Yep it's definitely not him, not sure who it is but from early on you could tell it was no 'newbie'.

Unfortunately when your a "supporter" only looking for negatives, you can’t see the positives.

No change to the wording, but the inverted commas I've added are an important edit nonetheless!

That really is quite poignant.


I had no idea you were so self-aware.

 

[Inveigh Slang]

I thought it might be him with some of his remarks but SA is far more articulate. This guy has worse grammar than me

 

[showemhowtorock]

Cox out, Duman in.... big yikes

 

[Deveraux]

Geez, no key defense at all. There had better be some up field pressure or this could get ugly.
Max King to kick 5+

 

[showemhowtorock]

I feel for them, imagine how scared someone like Young probably is rn, so much responsibility placed on them

 

[Square Peg]

Going to be one hell of a win if we pull this off.
I'm praying for rain

 

[Kram]

Yeh cos we have a great track record whenever it rains

I'm praying for a meteor

Get the **** over yourself. Don't go blaming umps before the game

 

[Lach72]

Ha ha damn.
What’s wrong with Cox?

 

[Deveraux]

It's possible the saints 2.5hr bus trip may have been delayed looking at Google maps... don't think it will help us any though as I'm sure all our boys are thinking of their own trip getting home tonight... can't even blame them.

 

[Wigarus]

Get the fu** over yourself. Don't go blaming umps before the game

Can we blame the coach?

"To succeed in addressing the challenges that lie ahead, we need high performance and consistency both on and off field, so we need to change and we need to evolve."

This is what Dale Alcock said last year after sacking Ross Lyon and the resignation of Steve Rosich.

Hopefully he and the footy department look at the consistency of injuries to key personnel over the years and make some significant changes at the end of the year.
