Game Day Rd 23 - Saints in Hobart - What Could Go Wrong

[FreoRicci]

Good game to see who’s staying next season

 

[trentjac]

No heart what so ever. Tackling is an indication of desire and we have been putrid

 

[BStaff17]

Seriously tell them last quarter play on at all costs.

Have a crack.

 

[vidwhal]

Treacy to bang on 5 in the last

 

[Van_Dyke]

Sad way to celebrate Mundy's milestone. But milestone games don't seem to be our thing lately...

we’re literally a week removed from a win in Mundy equaling the record, little over the top

 

[Wilksyy]

Better draft pick!

 

[mattis117]

Meek has 8 clangers for the game. 8! At three quarter time. One of the all time worst games for Fremantle.

 

[PeopleEater]

Even for us we’ve had some crap calls today…. Not that it would have made much of a difference

 

[WaywardSonSon]

Continue watching this putridly abysmal final showing for the season, or trim my hedge with my newly-bought hedge trimmer? Never has a decision been easier to make!

 

[Alfonz]

Two goals versus 7 while kicking with a howling gale. Beyond disgraceful with the season on the line.

I don't care what players are missing, the pressure and tackling of this side has been hopeless all season. The coaching group needs a good hard look at themselves.

 

[stormee]

Is our tackling a product of gameplan? Honestly I think of all the things we need our number one should be a pressure forward - our lack of forward pressure is so disappointing. Teams go coast to coast because of zero pressure coming out of defence. Not sure if Henry can add that to his game.

 

[salim malik]

Have Freo managed a mark in the forward 50.
Nil marks and minimum tackles. Par for the course.
But we don't need forwards.

 

[Funbeanman]

I'm not mad or sad about today's result it was expected I'm looking forward to next season

 

[Piggy Smalls]

Could there be a game plan less suited to finals than ours?
Serious question.

AFL Tables - Fremantle - Game Records

afltables.com

I can barely read those tables aside from the fact the title looks right. Looks like I have to work out the 3rd quarter deficit myself.

 

[Ge3ks]

Kudos to the Saints for bringing the pressure in a dead rubber for them.

 

[Rob]

Good game to see who’s staying next season

Not really, half the team would get delisted on this.

 

[thewiz0033]

Logue can't kick, can't handball and lacks footy nouse but some on here think he could be a good midfielder! Haha

You forgot to mention he can’t pick the ball up below his knees

 

[DenieD]

I'd rather us try and win but end up losing by 50 than continue this chip around the back crap.

Go all out. It is the final game of the season after all.

 

[kingswood71]

What a disappointing way to end, but typical.
Finals spot potentially up for grabs, we dont turn up.

[MadEyeEmmy]

Well this effort leaves a sour taste in the mouth. To be fair the team we have on the park leaves a lot to be desired and it seems like half the side is playing injured.

Pearce can’t jump, Tabs can’t seem to run and the young players look gassed. Darcy and Switta being injured basically sealed it.

What is disappointing though is the lack of trying something new. Take the game on or do something- ANYTHING. JL, after out-coaching Simmo last week doesn’t seem to have any answers here.

 

[estibador]

Well that was demoralising. My couch was turned into a boxing bag more than a few times that qtr. We're just not good enough to make it this year.

 

[BeinPurplenGreen]

Acres, Aish and Bewley 0 tackles. Combined.

 

[Demons09]

Half our supporters do

Always thinking about the draft instead of playing finals thats the never ending rebuild right there.

 

[Dirty_banchez]

Pathetic. Sack Dale Alcock.
