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

[Kangapirate]

Not quite at that point yet, settle
Gee, we are going to seriously scare some teams though

We are going to scare teams for a quarter and a bit. That doesn’t win games.

 

[Horizons_00]

Please

Come back

 

[Ardent Roo]

The fifty to Jackson was the last straw.

Our captain gave it away, it was right in front of me as went too early.

 

[TruRoos7]

Who on earth will we ‘scare’? Auskickers??

Maybe for a 1/4 or 2, but not for the full game..

 

[ansonholt]

We were bad in that quarter, but the umpiring was worse. Blatant two handed throw by Pearce in our goalsquare and not one of those 4 umpires saw anything wrong with it. On top of everything that came before as well.

That said, we're still in with a chance.

 

[JGreezy]

Stephens is out there going for a jog. He needs to impact.

 

[Disco Dew]

Lazzaro subbed off.

Subbed off for eternity I hope.

 

[Mute Point]

Momentum is everything these days. The 3 misses in the 2nd qtr would almost broken Freo. Start of 3rd qtr, still 17 points up, we had the first 3 inside 50 entries & pinpointed a Freo player each time.

 

[tricknologist]

Fremantle did this to Brisbane last week. We're simply not good enough yet.

 

[DEVO]

That was a Noble-esque quarter, they ran through us faster than any laxative known to man, and we looked inept trying to defend it. We played like every Docker had Covid and stayed the required 10 metres away. It started with Luke Jackson

who totally toweled up Xerri in that quarter and their Mids gained control. If we want to get back it has to start in the middle.

 

[KekiRoo]

Just gutting.

 

[Roostorm]

No point blaming the umpires when we haven't done anything since the 15 min mark of the 2nd quarter lol

It was a brilliant 2 halves….but when you think….it’s the first full preseason Clarko has had yes there are going to be times of falling off……
Guarantee this season it will be who can carry out this game plan and those that can’t …see ya later..
Dare l say some of our seniors made some bad decisions along this term…
I just wanna see some intent again …..

 

[jay317]

Need to get the first of the last and make it a game otherwise I fear this could be a 10 goal drubbing.

 

[Shermanator]

What's with duursma, about 3 times he had multiple open options, sees them and ignores them all

He’s 18 years old.

You should be asking what’s wrong with CCJ, Stevo, Corr, McDonald, etc - they’re all s**t..

 

[Marstermind]

The centre square work that quarter was a master class in how NOT to play. Literally zero out of 100.

Also, this team are losers. Freo were always going to pick up at some stage and they moment they did we capitulated.

And finally, McDonald is the worst captain in the history of our club.

 

[krakouers]

We are going to scare teams for a quarter and a bit. That doesn’t win games.

We have a young side still, plenty of hope,
We will get runs on, look like a great team, as we go on, it will be increasing that quarter or two to three even four quarters
It’s coming

 

[Disco Dew]

Fremantle did this to Brisbane last week. We're simply not good enough yet.

This is my copium too. “It’s not us, it’s them” but damn that third quarter was putrid

 

[Psi-Roos]

Can we just play Comben or Greenwood instead of CCJ next week. Please?

 

[spurs]

Well if Freo can kick ahead when they’re 17 points so can we in the last. I want fight!

 

[scottywiper]

Fremantle did this to Brisbane last week. We're simply not good enough yet.

Ah well, another decade and we'll come good.

 

[SonofSamsquanch]

How was that a free against?

is low-key killing us today.

 

[SammyRoo]

I missed the memo that NorthBall involved 7 goals a qtr …. Against

 

[Roostorm]

Jy Simpkin is low-key killing us today.

Back to soon ?

 

[tricknologist]

This is my copium too. “It’s not us, it’s them” but damn that third quarter was putrid

I mean, it's both. They're better and more seasoned than us. We need to be better for longer to compete with teams like this.
