Would be nice for Freo to win tonight, could have a two game buffer between us and 9th.

 

[Biggie]

Go Port.

Put the pressure on West Coast

**** Freo

I know it's Brad Scott but he looked pretty sincere when he said it and I actually feel inclined to believe him. The AFL would never admit it though and will go hard on the tough talk, fines etc.

Meanwhile multiple times last night the umpires paid that absolute flog Sicily frees for the exact same shit Thomas is guilty of to win Hawks the game.

Being sincere doesn't mean you are right, and to say something like that, you need to have proof. The umps are miked up, so if they said it, there would be proof.

Someone forgot to tell Channel 7 Perth, they think it starts at 4:30pm.

It's bullshit, I was looking forward to having a beer and watching the dockers lose

Its a ****ing joke, so sick of this shit from Ch7 and the AFL. They want their brand to be pervasive throughout Australia yet they do this shit.

Lol, I thought it was on live. Coulda sworn I checked the TV guide a week ago and it was. Then Eagle Vision was on. Check the EPG and it's not on even on a usual 30 minute delay. Check online and it's 2 hours. WTF? And we lose the Geelong-Bulldogs game which is an official 7 game. So currently streaming it.

Funny thing is at least over the next month, every Subi game is live on 7. Don't know why they have such a weird setup.

The hilarity is Qld and NSW get live feeds of home games to "attract" viewers. Clearly not one shit given in Perth. *waitsforthegetFoxtelarguments*

 

[Truckosaurus]

Any AFL fan in QLD/NSW would be hoping the game never takes off there. Their clubs get generous concessions, all games live, cheap and easy tickets, sounds like an easy life.

Scores level in Freo v Port.

Who are we going for? Makes me feel dirty to want Freo to beat Port and boost our finals chances.

 

[Ilkka Sinisalo]

Does Barlow wear a jumper that's too small? You can always see his lower back. Good thing he doesn't have a tramp stamp.

Surely we go the tank now.

Anything to gain by stumbling into the 8 and getting wiped out Richmond style?

Might as well miss finals and give the entire club a big kick up the ass

Losing heavily in the first week in 2002, 2003 and 2004 arguably helped our flag tilts in 05-06.

Moving up the draft order a couple of places is meaningless, especially if it's around the pick 10 mark where they are all roughly equal.

 

[avishka5]

with pick 10-11 in a deep draft isn't too bad. we likely to swoop in on guys like SPP, Rotham, Galluchi as well as serious bolters and maybe some sliders (please be SPS)

 

[RookiePick]

Port behinds hurting my tipping here

Yeah not so much for the pick but for the wake up call of missing finals after GF.

Did losing heavily in the 2015 GF help our flag tilt in 2016?

 

[SpaceClef]

Gee this Barlow guy goes alright - it's almost as if dropping him to the WAFL for underperforming had some sort of positive effect or something!

 

[Ilkka Sinisalo]

lol Ballantyne flexes because he thinks he's kicked a goal, and doesn't even make the journey from 40m.

Uh, you do know we were even worse in 2001 and 2002 right?

Hawthorn missed finals after winning the whole damn thing in 2008. That will always be worse.

The idea of tanking is foul to me. If we ever tanked I would cross over to the purple side of town.

[ep2018]

If results go the way they should (Carlton lose to GWS and Melbourne lose to Sydney) we should find ourselves with a 2 game gap between us and 9th.

Assuming freo dont **** this up, of course.

Tipped the Dorkers, you can never rely on Port to win games they should.

 

[Brer Bear]

Don't let little run of wins fool you, freo are still shit.

Fair enough. I more meant that I don't really care about other sides results and if it makes us miss out on finals.

If we don't make the 8 then we don't deserve it, and I don't want us to make finals on the back of other sides unexpectedly losing matches like Port tonight if it just extends our period of mediocrity.

Maybe Hawthorn missing finals after 08 is why they're so dominant now? Who knows
