Game Day Freo@Port

[swanny1234]

Did we just have 50 points dropped on our heads in a quarter?

By an under strength port Adelaide, playing for nothing, when we have a top 4 spot on the line.

Abysmal.

 

[Fat Nyfe]

8.1

 

[purplearmy]

WTF is up with umpires giving so many 50 metre penalties in games these days? Absolutely sick of it.

 

[s_wd6]

Get Fyfe on ASAP. Whatever we have in the middle isn't working. Letting a guy with a broken hand run all over us.

 

[Freofalcon]

Hawks and Sydney do right by us and were having a Dockery night



Still expecting us to come home with the chocolates or Ken will get an unexpected renewal on his contract

 

[pK75]

Players all collectively switched off, just thought they could mail it in after the first qtr, we are going to win, but this is why we can’t destroy teams, just lazy everywhere that qtr.

 

[Minz]

Yeah that’s it.
He has the talent and skill. But needs a massive pre season

And a real tiny holiday period, with regards to all the Christmas foods and such!

 

[Footskill]

The mids went to sleep that qrter. They were just waltzing it out and then too many 50s to top it off

 

[Randomizor]

Wasted 5 years with JL when we could have been competing

 

[estibador]

Not sure who smashed us worse that qtr - Port or the umps.

 

[Belnakor]

Paying for inaccuracy, and the game is being ruined by the umps. Need to uninvolve themselves and let the game flow a bit. This is worse than the Richmond St Kilda game as a spectacle at the moment.

Umpiring has been gross. Htb on us with no prior leading to at least two goals.

 

[poshman]

You might no care to see a premiership in your lifetime, but some do

Ah yes, of course, if someone doesn’t think you should blow your top anytime we aren’t in front it because they don’t want to win a flag.

Remarkably… still sounding like my mates ex wife.

 

[Piggy Smalls]

It's big boy time now. Let's see what we've got

 

[largebus]

17 tackles to half time is just putrid. We've probably missed about 17 as well.

If we have quarters like that in us we can forget about doing anything in finals.

 

[pavstar]

Get big Ange in…

 

[s_wd6]

Not sure who smashed us worse that qtr - Port or the umps.

How about ourselves? Missed shots and disgusting discipline. Most of the free kicks and the 50s were there

 

[Fireballs]

Can’t believe I got port for the win at $4.10
We were always going to lose this

 

[fnerd]

I think we’re capable of losing this game just fine on our own mate.

Absolutey .

We continue to incite this shit , hence the frustration

But that umpiring was next level

 

[ilikepotatoes]

Not sure who smashed us worse that qtr - Port or the umps.

Ourselves

 

[poshman]

Umpiring has been gross. Htb on us with no prior leading to at least two goals.

And some marks not paid. How is the female ump still getting games at afl level? She isn’t fast enough and on at least three occasions has been completely confused about what is happening when on the mic.

 

[FreoRicci]

The thing is who do we sub off for Fyfe? Doesn’t make sense.

 

[Minz]

Umpiring has been gross. Htb on us with no prior leading to at least two goals.

The difference in HTB interpretation between the sides is really annoying

 

[Randomizor]

Ah yes, of course, if someone doesn’t think you should blow your top anytime we aren’t in front it because they don’t want to win a flag.

Remarkably… still sounding like my mates ex wife.

Scurry back to your optimism thread with your fingers in your ears then

 

[Dockeroo]

Port are one of those sides that always believe they will beat us no matter how bad they are and how good we are going at any given point.

Fremantle have been one of Ken Hinkley biggest bitches in the AFL over his coaching career. He has mostly found a way to get his side up against us in games of consequence between us over the years.
That’s why this flatness tonight is so disappointing, tackle pressure and intensity is way off against a team that have no respect for our club and never really have had. They just see us as an inferiors version of them that’s further away from the heartland of the AFL in Melbourne.

 

[purplearmy]

50 metre penalties are given way too flippantly these days. I don’t care what anyone says. Total joke. Games are just about how many free kicks get handed out.
