Feel like we're still rubbish?

That fantastic game where we coughed up an 8 goal half time lead to Melbourne is on Fox Footy at 7.30pm WST tonight.

 

[13then7]

I flew across for that game. Yikes!

 

[greatgatsby]

I'm missing Fox Footy Lach ... but not right at the moment.

 

[wild side]

I don't have fox. Why would I.
It's got Gerard "girlsblouse" on it.
I reckon on Friday it might go a bit better !

I was pretty much crying out of anger and frustration at the final minutes of that match, I was literally seconds away from putting my fist through my brand new Bravia LCD. What made it all the more frustrating is my now fiance' just doesn't get footy and couldn't fathom my frustration. She was pretty much shrugging her shoulders about it and telling me to calm down. DON'T TELL ME TO CALM DOWN!!!!

 

[BananaOnTheRun]

it is this game that will forever have me wishing annihilation upon the dees whenever we play them. last year's game at the G just reinforced it.

 

[Freo95]

I was gobsmacked after that game. I had no words, i was speechless.

 

[Pusswah]

Have you got a new avatar.


Boooosh.

 

[Purple Suit]

Just turn it off at half time, problem solved

 

[Wharf]

Worst game i have ever been to.
Remember feeling so hollow the next day and it didn't help when i copped crap from it left, right and centre.

 

[bfff]

OMG NO!

v Melbourne in Melbourne. THE bogey fixture.

 

[Dockernut]

I distinctly remember Den saying: Can Melbourne fight their way back into this one? I highly doubt it.

Oh well, it makes years like this one all the sweeter, where everything goes to hell in a hand basket for them.

My wife doesn't get it either. I put my fist through my marble coffee table when Palmer broke Barlow's leg.

'You can always replace a coffee table but you can't replace an A Grade player' I said is a slightly annoyed voice.

 

[Nickos66]

Now there's a passionate supporter.

 

[Righteo]

Poor form by a mod to start a troll thread, GTFO Lach

 

[Arcassius]

Excellent form. True freo supporter. Would buy again. A++

Those tendons in your hand might be a little more difficult to replace than the coffee table as well

 

[Moo]

I watched the game online from the UAE - rates up there with the 'One Team - One Goal' game.

Wasn't the smartest thing i've ever done. very lucky no serious pain.

 

[Clay Davis]

Game wasn't on any TV or radio station in NSW, so listened to it via the internet. Sitting in the lounge room with a laptop and headphones on swearing in disbelief was not my favourite footy moment.

Contrast that to listening to the first derby of 2006 at around 4am in London, that was fantastic.

Also reminds me of how far the internet has come in such a short time.

 

[JunglistPosse]

I remember watching the 1st half on the box and then having to leave to go to a wedding. Nipping out my car in the late 4 th Q for a score check, i was in a state of disbelief.

 

[believe_it]

Ahh yes that one has a special place etched out in the memory banks.

If I recall correctly at half time it seemed to be a case of how much we would win by - at that time a thought that should never have dared cross a freo supporters mind.

Then it started and once it started there was a feeling of inevitability about it. It was like watching a disaster unfold before your eyes. Nothing could be done except witness the horror and devastation. I would have felt much worse after the game but I think my brain blanked out much of the event as can happen in times of great trauma.

 

[Reginald Perrin]

This is the second time that this game has been featured on Chooseday Night Football. Do we not have enough supporters who have Foxtel to counteract the Melbourne votes?

Nice summation. It was horrific. All I can remember is Austin Woenamerri kicking them from everywhere..

 

[Seppo]

One of my first games I watched live when I moved to Melbourne.

I was so excited at half time and texting my new co worker who was a Melbourne supporter, but then copped it hard when I got into work in Monday.

That made me a sad panda.
