Game Day Game Day: NMFC v Freo, Marvel Stadium, 1:45pm

[Disco Dew]

3 players within 5 metres. Deliberate. Umps dragging them over the line.

Disgusting call. I was livid

 

[Disco Dew]

these ******* red time goals.

Touched. Sweet

 

[flojo]

Costly few misses
Getting a bit gassed.
Refuel boys you gotta go again

 

[Roostorm]

Dawson…that was bloody HUGE…..CUT THE RED TIME GOAL….
Need the break…….

 

[Devington]

Must have been a memo at the end of the year saying players will have more time to dispose when held, a LOT of our blokes are taking their time with it when they've got hands on them.

 

[Only Forwards]

3 goals up at the half.

This simply has to become a win.

 

[Engimal v3]

Geez that last 10 minutes were concerning. Wheels completely fell off.

 

[KangaRooster]

3 goals up at the half.

This simply has to become a win.

Should be up by 6 at least, we looked tired to finish the quarter but we’ve had a great half

 

[Blue train 28]

Really good first half . Should be more in front . But transition , kicking and intent is there. Need to slow down late in the qtrs and waste the clock get some more stoppages.

 

[Chadwiko]

Quick half time thoughts from the ground:

• Pink is our best KPD today and hahaha imagine wanting him dropped
• Sheezel, Colby, George and Zane can lead us to a flag
• Xerri playing fantastic
• CCJ struggling with consistency and decision making
• NorthBall is awesome
• How good is this

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

3 goals up at the half.

This simply has to become a win.

Yep.

Really disappointing that Duursma/Simpkin and to a lesser extent Larkey couldn’t convert.

Would’ve been six goals.

 

[Disco Dew]

Geez that last 10 minutes were concerning. Wheels completely fell off.

Nah it’s fine.

 

[Roosurgence]

Great call by goal ump …Dawson well done

Goal umpire made soft decision of a goal

 

[muttley45]

Xerri having another decent game, not much ammo for his knockers again

 

[Kangapirate]

Match turned a bit on the back of our 3 set shot misses, convert 2 of those and we would have been on our way. Now we gotta go again.

 

[Liam Boy]

Freo's gameplan is Noble-esque. They either look for a nothing sideways chip kick or go long down the line whenever they take a mark, they only look dangerous when it breaks down and they have to improvise

 

[tricknologist]

Fremantle turned the game against Brisbane last week and smashed them. We should be up by more but it isn't surprising that they rallied during that second quarter.

 

[Engimal v3]

Nah it’s fine.

Hope you're right. We went from fantastic to dogshit.

 

[TurnoverMerchant]

So so so impressed with the boys today! I think we got tired towards the end which is why they started being able to enter our 50. We need to start the third quarter well or we could potentially lose sight of them.

is BOG by a country mile. Ridiculous footballer.

 

[Roostorm]

Look it was a freaking awesome two halves….l mean…how long has it been since we have seen that…
We know there’s going to be moments of wheels falling off for the youngest team in the comp…
But gee wiz how often do we say …we’re in it up to our necks….
What a joy to watch…hopefully Al gets them ready for the next half….

 

[DEVO]

For the first quarter and half that was the best football we have played in 4/5 years, the running through the middle, taking on the opponent and the quick interchange of handballs, it was so exciting to watch, but in the final 10/12 minutes, we were our own worst enemy, poor mistakes, poor decisions, and poor disposals allowed Freo back into the game. We got ahead of ourselves, it will now be up to Clarko to get the head back in the game.

 

[gustaaf]

Great half but we became very sloppy in the last 10 minutes. Those three set shot misses in a row hurt us. We should be 6 goals in front, but instead Freo will feel they are still in it. Loving what I've seen, but we need to repeat it for another half. We have so many good players today that its is almost unfair to name them because of who you might leave out.

 

[Ocha905]

Only negative is we still can't run out quarters. Future is bright. Some of those passages of play would've been the envy of the comp.

 

[SonofSamsquanch]

Disgusting call. I was livid

Especially as the fremantle bloke pushed the ball over the line deliberately only a couple of minutes earlier.
