[Joao]

Gone a bit early haven't y... We're playing on a Thursday you say? Well I never.

Pumped

And i have someone who just started on Monday working where i am and he is a geelong supporter wore his Geelong polo in today. He laughed at the thought of freo winning when i said they would lose tonight. Said show us some respect.

He isn't aware yet i am a freo fan so he will be in for a shock when i wear my freo shirt into work tomorrow after a victory when i surprise him so go Freo

 

[Freeeoo]

Got a feeling we're going to give it a red hot go tonight BUT we must not get blown away in the first quarter. If we're with them at quarter time we win.

The weather suits their big bodies

 

[Purpleheart_56]

I reckon We are going to win...

 

[Belnakor]

is it actually going to rain tonight?

 

[Deanismyhero]

Cautiously optimistic ! Freo by 1 , Treacy goal after siren

 

[Ge3ks]

Hoping for a match winning game from our two milestone men;

Fyfe 201st
Mundy 349th

Fundfey 550th

Thanos approves of this message.

is it actually going to rain tonight?

There's not a lot of rain forecast after lunch time. Zero mm forecast, with a 20% of some rain (e.g. showers).

Someone wnated an age comparison in the other thread:

0 - 50 games = Freo 7 players, Geebung 3 players
51 - 100 games = Freo 8, Geebung 5
101 - 200 games = Freo 5, Geebung 7
201 - 300 games = Freo 1, Geebung 6
301 + = Freo 1, Geebung 1

We win this. I feel this.

 

[Bastyy]

If the Suns win today and the Dockers win today it's an amazing Thursday

If neither win, I'm going to the melt thread

 

[Tonga Bob]

Selwood to sucker punch someone in the third quarter.

 

[Wilksyy]

Well, well, well haven’t the lines moved drastically for Freo. From 2.60 to 2.05.

Freo by 2.5 points

Gold Coast playing today too?

Big Darce

 

[Bastyy]

Gold Coast playing today too?

If they were I wouldn't be that passionate about them!

 

[Dale147]

A grudge?

 

[Fat Nyfe]

If the trend of this season continues, we’ll crumble under the pressure tonight but then beat Sydney next week in whoop whoop somewhere while no ones watching.

 

[Sweetback]

It’ll start windy but the wind will die down over the course of the game.

 

[Dump Truck]

Darcy will learn to take on a decent beast tonight when he rucks against Hawkins in the cats fwd 50. The bloke is an absolute monster and has ragdolled both Gawn and NicNat to kick a goal.

Pearce will have a better shot at defending him then Ryan last year though.

Heart says Freo by 10. Head says cats by 20

The weather suits their big bodies

This doesn't make sense to me, how are they bigger than us? Darcy, Fyfe, Lobb, Pearce, Logue, Hughes, no one's pushing these guys around.

I don't buy this line that their bodies are bigger than our blokes.

 

[ozzie69]

It's the first quarter where we have often struggled this year. If we come out and get pummeled from the start again then it'll be a long night. If we can go with their heavy contested game early and not get too far down at the start, then we are in with a show. At home - Freo by 11.

 

[mattis117]

I'm so happy to still be in contention at this point in the season after the run we've had since 2016. Everything is coming up Fremantle and I'm backing them in. Darcy to make it three career best games in a row, giving us first use and dominant ground position. Our biggest strength is their biggest weakness.

I really want to see a 45k plus turnout tonight. Biggest game for years, get behind the boys and get loud.

 

[Kram]

Well it's nice and sunny atm, hopefully the wind pisses off a bit later though.
