Preview Changes vs Fremantle

[year of the roo]

Are you suggesting Boomer is quicker than Betts/Garlett/Milne etc? News to me

Yes/No/Yes.

 

[Arcassius]

if kepler bradley doesnt get a gig as is being mooted on freo's page,who is a good match up for car keys ??

Kepler will likely stay in - he's important to structure. I mentioned on the freo board that Clarke is most likely there as insurance for Pav not coming up, Sutcliffe there as insurance for Mzungu/Fyfe.

 

[giantroo]

Yes/No/Yes.

and 20 times the players they are.

We will scythe through their defence with run and gun and establish a 5-6 goal lead.

Lyon will have to dismantle the 14 man defence in order to get back in to the game.

The triple towers will then go berserk.

North by 72 points.

I like it. Our run and spread in full flight cannot be stopped. The only way we'll lose this is if we get totally smashed in the clearances, which I can't see happening.

 

[Frigate]

There's a lot of rubbish in the Freo back line.

It's no wonder they need 14 defenders.

We will see. Johnson is in career best form. McPhee is playing perhaps his best football since AA for Essendon. Crowley is perhaps the number one tagger in the AFL.

But please feel free to keep running with the 14 defender thang. Would like to hear the list as to 14 defenders that will play. I have 8, which would be pretty standard.

Anyway should be an intense game.

 

[ThePezDispenser]

Harvey has the best side step in the AFL.

 

[Glory Days]

Let's not get too excited here fellas and respect every opposition team. Freo have some damn good players and could easily test us with their game style. I don't think the coaching department will be taking this game lightly and will require a strongly executed game plan to counter theirs.

 

[amofootyfan]

Just wanted to come in here and wish you guys all the best. I love watching how you are playing, you are one of the teams people love to watch when their team isnt playing, and cant believe the change since the game down in Tassie. Pls finish 6th and knock over Geelong in the first final!! Go Roos

Nah.

It's Freo.

 

[Husk]

What's he like? We usually dread Margetts, Mcburney and Farmer

With Sch(m)itt nobody wins. Both sides will come away from the game feeling like they've been screwed royally.

 

[Hard_to_Beat]

Brendan Goddard?

 

[Husk]

Mesmerizing.

 

[Ghostwriter]

Goddard should have gone for the hips, classic example.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Sensational.

 

[Stan Darsh]

So sad we will not see Wellsy at Etihad for another 8 months.

 

[giantroo]

Smooth, Classy, Majestic is our Wellsy.

 

[shinboner magic]

No change.
Atley on Mayne- he usually gives us trouble and is quite speedy on the lead.

 

[WA ROO]

We will see. Johnson is in career best form.

Running around without an opponent can do that
Who will Johnno get Tarrant or Hansen.

 

[Hard_to_Beat]

No change.
Atley on Mayne- he usually gives us trouble and is quite speedy on the lead.

McMahon or Firrito will play on Mayne.

Atley will get Walters.

 

[Darcy 2 Fyfe]

Running around without an opponent can do that
Who will Johnno get Tarrant or Hansen.

Dunno, he's 3rd or 4th in line usually, hence the space he gets. McPharlin will get Petrie, Zac Dawson should get Hansen so it's McPhee or Johnson to Tarrant. Our defence will show respect for your forward line but I can see you getting hold of us like some aother teams in recent weeks. Unfortunately your coaching dept is not so naive to underate us like many here.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

I would put Atley on Ballantyne.

Seeing as he has taken some serious scalps this year.

The new bloody tiprat.

 

[Deleted member 98541]

Remember over in Freo when Ballantyne lead McMahon upfield then spread from the stoppage tearing us multiple new ones. Remember wishing we had a defender with leg speed? Lol, those days....*deep breath and sigh*


*emotions pour out rivaling double rainbow guy*


Man I almost let out years of joy everytime I think about Atley, unbelievable. He should've worn no. 17 just to remind every other club where he was taken. FFS GC had 20 top 10 picks!

 

[CharlieMortdecai]

Harvey has the best side step in the AFL.

Of course if he's lining up from 50 you'd have to be deadset braindead to fall for it.
