Review Marsh Series: Fremantle v Carlton

[MadMundy]

Good first quarter!! Loving it so far

 

[Taylor]

Sturt super fit running up and down the corridor could be very exciting.

We will enjoy Walters into this game plan but if we lose too many good users we will get smashed on turnovers.

I know it’s just 1 qtr of a pre season game, but Cox looks a different player back there. He has intensity.

Think there’s two ways you can go being thrust into an important rule. You can rise up to meet it, or shrink away. Looks like he’s doing the former.

Some good signs with the ball movement but still looking a bit one dimensional bombing into forward 50.

Having Fyfe and Sonny rotating there might help that

Or it’s his natural position & he feels comfortable.

End of the quater - you can see all the usual pre-season cobwebs, but they're cobwebs that are living on a solid game style - I like it.

Prefer not to rely on them though

 

[estibador]

Saw a few beautiful passes put in front of a leading forward that qtr. What is this witchcraft?

 

[Rob]

Yuck. The last 10 minutes of bombing. Have to train them out of that

No point short passing to nobody.

 

[Johnny Dalmas]

Liked the way we could retain posession

That has been my observation over the pre-season sessions I have been to. Hopefully it improves over time.

 

[Lach72]

The players are rotating quicker than sailors on leave through a knock shop.

hard to get any continuity out there

 

[Walshy1]

So weird not seeing Ross in our huddle

 

[Heart Of Purple]

Impressed by Cerra, Cox,McCarthy and Shultz early.
underwhelmed by Blakely, Darcy and DUMAN.

The i50 entries will come. What's changed is forwards actually leading into space i50. Sturt and McCarthy both finding space - just need to hit them.

 

[MadEyeEmmy]

Liking it so far. Darcy looks like he’s struggling

 

[Steinfreo]

I like some of the careful decision making so far.

 

[Scham]

Best foot skills from a Freo team for many a year but no surprise there.

Really happy for Schultz, making every post a winner.

We were a bit too Darcy conscious a couple of times there going to him in a clear 1 v 1 and Carlton read it better with a loose player coming up to the contest and winning it on the ground.

Overall I’m loving it.

 

[freo1997]

Liking it so far. Darcy looks like he’s struggling

Yep agree with both.

 

[wayToGo_]

We need Kiara Bowers showing our boys how to wrap a tackle.

 

[noise36]

Need to pin the arms with the tackles guys, the easy handball out lets them off the hook, especially in our forward 50

 

[E Shed]

Well I'm impressed. Some of the best ball movement I've seen from a Freo side for a while and ability to keep possession has been great.
Defence has been ok so far. Logue, Ryan and Cox look good.

 

[Dale147]

Walsh is towelling up who ever is on him.

 

[gaskin]

Cracking finish that.
