Autopsy Freo Outlast Crows Away (72-84) - Rd 5, 2021

[Sweetback]

Great win away against a side that has been winning well, will take that

 

[wayToGo_]

Now we get two weeks of training to prepare for the derby.

 

[Dockeroo]

I thought Logue was excellent??

 

[Alfonz]

Stoked to be wrong about them not being able to play away. Last half was a big improvement, but still a lot more work to do.

Mundy with another stellar performance. Quite incredible from the old man.

 

[Taylor]

bad like Hayden Young last year level?

Had that look, yeh

 

[Lord Rod]

Great win on the road.. The boys stepped up and took the game by the scruff of the neck.. Well done.

 

[mike91]

Tabs and Schultz kicking clutch goals, after a massive stuff up was huge.

Mundy might literally be having a career best season

Aish best game for us

Our last 10 minutes was sensational, we hit our targets going inside 50m

Please don't drop Treacy, North next week is exactly what he needs and could benefit from

We play a good brand of footy. Will get better as the new kids get build their strength but or spread from the contest is first class. Thought Crowden deserves a mention after coming on and getting involved immediately.

 

[Demons09]

My buddy Lachie Schultz proving why he's best 22, great win for the boys. Great weekend for WA footy too.

Lol its a good weekend for one reason and one reason only.

 

[SandiHill]

Please just be a sprain to Cerra

 

[BeinPurplenGreen]

Sean Darcy has a knack of going off looking like it's season over and then comes back stronger than ever to win at the end.

He is like a living wrestling script.

It is Dr Nick and his magic knee replacement technique that needs the credit. And Nicholls needs to be the umpire that gets the chair to the head...

 

[Freo Big Fella]

Other than (some of the) finishing, and Lobb/Logue looking a bit rusty, that was about as good a performance as we've put in under Justin.

Ryan and Wilson's best games for the year, Mundy and Serong's master and apprentice routine, Darcy huge, Tabs huge, Schultz huge second half, Andy getting a bit of confidence back.

Forward structure (again!) looking great - just need to note what's working (keep Tabs deep!) and make sure it's stuck to.

 

[Superkoops]

After losing Cerra, garbage umpiring and average skills for most of the game - I'll take that 4th Quarter response on the road. Great stuff.

That free kick to Lynch about 10metres out just before half time was atrocious. I can forgive the umps making a mistake like that in the midfield if there is any doubt 10metres out play the friggin game on.

 

[Rob]

I thought we were the better team for most of the game but we wasted opportunities up forward. Treacy and Lobb were liabilities, so to get the win with donuts from those 2 is a major positive. And halfway through the last quarter we were in trouble but found enough to step up in a big way.

BUT....the Crows are an average team at best. Let's not start thinking we're hot s**t just yet.

 

[Boppo]

great win on the road, Schultz and Colyer were immense. Still don't want Hughes any where near our team if we get to September.

Yeah poor guy tries his heart out but his thought processes are just too slow.

 

[Johnny Dalmas]

Thought Brayshaw had a great game. Nothing spectactular, but 4 quarters of strong blue collar work in the engine room.

 

[splintss]

Nail biting stuff. Was not expecting a final quarter like that but will take it though. Knew there was an upset on the cards - huge win!

 

[Outshined]

Tbh I thought we'd fold in the last quarter after the Walker goal to put them back in front. Definitely weren't at our best, especially in the first two quarters but they held it together against some pretty intense pressure at times, then capitalised in the second half. Really on the balance of play it deserved to be 30 pts+ if not for a few ridiculous goals and incredibly suspect decisions in their forward 50.

Adelaide have undoubtedly improved, so that was a good win at a traditional graveyard for us. Definitely doesn't prove our top 8 credentials by any stretch but a loss would've hurt massively.

Fingers crossed for Cerra.

 

[Wilksyy]

Healey pointed it out a few times but once Shultz was taken out of the deep forward position he was awesome. Let Tabs play there, we attack the corridor enough now.

Luke Ryan was in All Australian form.

On AFL360 they pointed out how both Mundy and Cerra were number 2 and 3 for best inside 50 kicks (Gulden was first). Mundy is probably number 1 after that game and it was nice he got rewarded for it (kicked some goals) for a change.

Great win away.

 

[BeinPurplenGreen]

Geez Adelaide have a bunch of players that get heaps of touches but butcher the ball...

 

[mike91]

Oh and Coyler was incredible. After Round One, he's actually been pretty good

Hercules appreciates your recognition, but would prefer to stay under the radar...

 

[Dale147]

Cerra going out probably opens the door for Blakely to come back in. Treacy needs some time at Peel, do we bring Meek back?

 

[MadEyeEmmy]

Phew that’s a relief! Well done boys- Adelaide gave everything and we still managed to get the job done.

Nice to see everyone in the circle singing the song today!
