I'm really starting to dislike derby time, it just reminds me how insufferable that supporter base is.

I swear it never used to be this bad and that they were generally likable, what happened?
Nah, mate - not unless you're talking about your gran or someone you know in particular.

They have always been the single worst supporter group in the competition. No competition.

Hideous, ill-mannered suckers of a communal teat. They are everything that is bad about Western Australia boiled down to a concentrated, rancid yellow.
 
Short memory as about 2 seconds earlier Duggan stone cold dropped the ball in the goal square. Clear holding the ball. Play on of course. Just like all game where WC players did this, while our players were getting legitimate handballs away (Serong one on our half back flank springs to mind) and still getting pinged.

I've only flicked through the first quarter replay, but what is with Pavlich and sucking up to the Eagles? Whenever I stopped to watch a bit, he was siding with them on free kick calls and praising them. I get that he doesn't want to look biased to Freo, but he goes too far the other way. I was watching the Hawks/North game and there was an ex-Hawthorn player on the mic (forget who) who was actively referring to Hawthorn as "we" and "us".
Yeah,every time I listen Pav commenting, I hope He might GROW SOME and stand up for team He played over 350 games,but NAH NEVER HAPPENS...

Despite of all respect for what He has done for the club I thought this must be called publicly...Hopefully He learns from it and start standing up for Us...
 
RE: Pav being too impartial

The main board eagles fans were adamant he was a one eyed freo commentator. They honestly have NFI and make the MB threads so toxic with their stock standard responses

"Walters ducks" (Yes, but so does half your team and Ryan's flop was soooo much worse)
"It's your grand final" (Can only make a grand final by getting more points and making finals, thanks for 16 points in a row and playing finals)
"Freo given an armchair ride" (lolllllllll)

His job isn’t to stand up for us. He should be there as a commentator who is providing objective commentary.

Tbh if anything is strays on the overly critical against us because he is personally invested in our success.

The wet toast supporters hate him commentating derbies that should tell you something.

They were actually moaning about the umpires in the 3rd quarter. I had to do a double take when I saw it. 10-0 not good enough for them!

Tbh some of our recent additions to the board aren’t much better for us. Some cretin was calling for Darcy to be dragged half way through the game. Looney bin stuff.
 
Eagles third run started with a couple of dubious decisions. Freddies flip so much cooler than darling lame headstand thing
Started when Williamson came into the centre bounces. Guy loves the whistle for West Coast.

Sheed had the ball, was tackled, swung around and incorrectly disposed of it. The resulting stoppage- Williams backed into Darcy, drew the free kick. Centre clearance then bang goal.

11-0 in the third quarter. Yet these shit for brains West Coast fans complaining about umpires
 
Would have distracted Hurn thats for sure
What are you implying?

Id take my left foot over Henry. He wasn’t kicking from 50m. It’s amateurish. He’s not a penetrating kick but if the whole stadium knows you’re not going to kick it from 30m out slight angle then it’s time to put in the work.

I’m not saying ram it home, but stop chipping the kick like you’re trying to pass it to the goal umpire. That particular play was frustrating because we had about 5 guys out and we chose Henry.

I like what Henry brings, but this is a make or break season and yesterday was borderline career defining in all seriousness. He can’t keep making howler errors. His first 2 weeks was good, so he deserves a run at it, but another performance like yesterday in next 2 weeks and he’s dropped for sure. He may even get dropped this week.
welcome back! Where have you been?!?! Have you been cobbling?

How long does it take to cobble? :tongueoutv1:
 
Sonny has had a bit of reinannsce 16 goals from last 6 games including back end of last year.

He looks sharp so far considering he looked done 2 years ago.
He can sniff one last chance at a premiership which is why he worked his butt off. It's a shame because so many Freo legends have deserved a flag, Sonny is one of them. I hope we fix our shit soon because I want to give him every chance to get one.
 
I can see what they want to turn Henry into, a guy who can be a can opener and blow open the field with one genius kick. It is rare that he holds onto the pill for more than a second and he really stuffed up a few disposals under pressure. A weapon like that doesn’t come easily if at all, they’ll want to persist a bit more at the top level to see if he can get it right.

psychological projecting. They're caught between the bleeding cuts of a jagged rock and the grating reality of a hard place. Sometimes we all struggle with the acceptance of certain things - but their delusion in their gibbering grotto of irrationality is bordering on the Dali-level of paranoias! He liked blues and yellows too, maybe they should try their hand at Surrealism. They are the Ministry of Silly Walks right now, after all ;)

They have some good young players who will potentially be A Grade, but not enough to steer their transition as yet as they clearly won't accept a rebuild. Now they realise they're in a 2023 world of hurt with all those injuries, but you also can argue they run the risk of so many injuries to over 30s and those with soft tissue histories. Yet, they can't balance that with playing too many of their new kids on the block. They're hanging tough, alright...

Also, given the insidious nature with which they operate, you reap what you sow.

* Walters did duck. Once. The rest was pure artform. I'm sure no Toast player EVER tried to con an ump.
** It's NOT our GF. I wasn't even sure if we'd win and many people here felt that way too. We needed to just forge out a win to get going, bank 4 points and move on. You're not THAT relevant anymore, so get used to it. We won, you lost. By the way, you have Melbourne next and a fairly horrid run after that, I'd be more worried about what's potentially to come.
*** What was the free kick count? 21-18 in their favour. I'm sure it was 10-0 to them in the 3rd alone! I'm amazed it was that even to be honest.

In the end, it's just their typical saltiness. We had 9 more tackles. Disposal efficiency was even. I thought, in all fairness it was a good game....their eyes would have lit up in the 3rd, eyeing off a fairytale win, but we got them in the 4th as they fatigued.

Time to move on. Adelaide up next.....

Serong needs help ay.

Too much on his shoulders in the trenches.

Fair enough but we have the players to potentially provide that support.
Ras and Johnson will both be playing together soon.
Johnson’s poise was great yesterday with that excellent score involvement with Brayshaw and some strong tackles too.
That was a very promising debut.
Add Erasmus into the mix and I think that’s a better balance midfield.
Stevie Wonder can see we absolutely need the speed on ball of Switta.
 
Already over hearing about how gallant WCE were and how terrible we were. The eagles supporters at the office today are laying it on thick, and saying how disrespectful our players were for “carrying on and doing flips” 😂😂😂

Anyone remember that dumb Derby group photo they did a few years ago?
 
Stolen from reddit, hopefully everyone can text / message this to their WC mates today

I found a better use for it. Now the blue and yellows have to see it all over the site.
