Congrats

Congratulations guys on a gutsy win. Too good, too strong and just ran over us the final quarter.

Good luck for the rest of the year.

Cheers.

Worst game I've ever seen.

Both teams played like bottom 4 sides.

Back at ya. Had as worried in the first half. The only thing that spoiled the game was Medhurst's kicking, Carey's kicking, the umpires (Bad on both sides, worse on yours though) and last but the biggest thing, Bhiglands or whoever it was who hit Polak, I'm sure it was Bhiglands.

I don't know what I can say, I've never been so ****ed off to win a game.

From the first bounce we looked flat and never really got any better. After half time we got a few goals, but when we went forward, we had nothing. It was the worst game I've seen in a long time and a pathetic effort.

If we play like that next week, we will get absolutely slaughtered.

That being said, you need to win those games especially when you're down.

Yep, it was Biglands, and he'll get charged for it too, rightfully so.

You guys weren't your normal best, but you were still better then us. Your defence was very good and you fought hard in the last quarter.

Very good effort by Freo.

I was so annoyed. The only person who can take something out of it was Troy Longmuir, 4 Goals. And Connoly was going to leave him out

Thanks Stiffy . It was a hard game with lots of pressure snd could have gone either way. Good luck to the Crows next week.

Of course he'll get dropped for the next round.

On a serious note, that game was frustrating as hell to watch and I lost my temper quite a few times in the first half (sorry to the kiddies seated around me). It reminded me of the Freo of old - stuffin around with handballs and missing easy shots on goal (I think Nesham may have coached the first half ).

Anyway, main thing is we won!!!!

felt like a waste of an Easter Sunday

was good to win, but how frustrating to watch!

Remember what I said about commenting not trolling after the last Docker home game

I'd go with that. My reaction was that if the Dockers played like that against nearly anyone else* you'd get absolutely smashed - and you should have in this game had the Crows not had a chronic case of the yips.

What happened? Your side is way better than that. Waaay better.

I thought Adelaide played like a bottom four side determined to drag the opposition down to their level, while the Dockers were determined to remember what 2001 was all about.

To be honest if your guys played to half of your ability you would have smashed the Crows today, but they just wanted the ball more and were more prepared to do the hard stuff. I don't think Adelaide are a likely finalist (they're about at were we at West Coast were in 2000, just don't tell ok.crows I said so).

The lowest standard game I've seen in two years since both our clubs were shyte. I hope you don't play that way again next week against Collingwood because if you do you'll be playing them back into form. Feel free to play like that again in round 6 though

I suppose at least you didn't spend 20 minutes emulating witches hats at the start of the game like a certain club I support....

* Nearly anyone else = Bris, Port, Coll, Syd, StK, Melb, Rich, Ess, Haw, and yes, WCE. The Bulldogs and Geelong would have found a way to lose it like the Crows did (and since Melb kicked 12.25 today I guess they would have had the yips too)
