Review Rd 9: Freo keep rolling against the Swans

[Sweetback]

I like Jaeger but he wasn't the right player to bring in. We're now in an awkward position trying to find room for Ras and Johnson while also having Brodie floating around in no man's land.

I think he’s exactly the right player. We need mature heads around all these kids, ones that set a standard on and off the field.

OK Eeyore

Your opinions are generally pretty s**t so maybe just keep them to yourself

 

[Carnthedockers]

Have to say, I really enjoyed Cam Mooneys commentary. He digs deeper, and can see what we are building.

So good to see Treacy out there ,I wasn't sure why we payed so much for Jackson ,well now I get it and Darcy was immense

Did we thought? From memory it was equivalent to pick 1 in points, which is exactly what the dees paid.

Jaeger after an ordinary start is getting there and think he will add solid value to the team. Frankly it's ridiculous how impatient people are with any of our players on here.

Loved his sweeping handball out to O’Driscoll in the last

It's so funny because it feels like Darcy is having just about his best year, or at least very close to it. Certainly performing a lot better than last year with Lobb as his 2IC.

Darcy should be the AA ruckman at this stage surely.

edit: though I forgot English is having a great season too. And of course has the inherent advantage of playing for a Vic team.

But English really needs to prove himself playing for Big Victorian team. Like Carlton.

 

[Piggy Smalls]

He comes accross aa a real flog. Why would the worst employ him?

Because his hatred for Freo suits their agenda perfectly.

The Freo hate at the west is real.
Its why I havnt bought 1 of there rough toilet wipes in 5 years.

 

[Scham]

I reckon if they picked the AA team now the 2 rucks would be English and Marshall.

Darcy would and should be in the conversation for the second spot behind English though.

English on another level

He's a great player, but he's not really a good ruckman. It's kinda weird how bad an actual ruck he is but how great around the ground he is for a bloke his size.

Look - it was very encouraging, but we’ve beaten two bottom 6 sides in succession. Remember Brisbane and Bullies. As has already been noted above, it’s never as good as it seems, or as bad.

We needed these wins to retain long term hope and faith but these two swallows don’t make a summer.

If you view the season as a development year it is very positive.

Since before the Suns game when JOM acknowledged he was being too careful to not make any mistakes at his new club he’s been massive and deserves the recognition, he really led the midfield yesterday and if had nailed that goal on the run in the 2nd(?) he’d be close to BOG for mine.

He played well but that's way ott imo.

Who was doing special comments along with Dermie? Mooney or Scarlet? Really good whomever it was.

I thought JOM was terrible in the first quarter, I was mentally banishing him to Peel for the remainder of his contract. But he really lifted for the rest of the game. Even though Mills was out, smashing them in the middle gives a lot of hope that our midfield mix is right. JOM played a big part in that.

Yeah, watching the game now and was wondering who it was. Money is quality

Jaeger was a bargain trade given he comes with salary. But Brodie is also part of the cost.

Okay maybe a little ott but still deserves some credit after a terrible first month of footy
