Seething!! Topped with Frustration!!

[Freo95]

Seething: Umpires!
Frustration: The players know who they are!

Just frustrating having to watch our team trying to crawl our way back 2 weeks in a row!

I don't understand why we are so persecuted by the umpires.

They mark our balls.
They ask the opposition players if they want us to have another kick at goal after a free kick.
They don't call the end of the game.

I'm sick of seeing all of our free kicks awarded when we have advantage.
I'm sick of seeing our 'free kicks for' counts consistently less than the 'free kicks against'.
I'm sick of seeing oppostion teams given 50/50 decisions in their forward 50 area.
I'm sick of seeing all of our 'free kicks for' awarded when games are out of reach.

The umpires were poor, but anyone who blames the umpires or the tribunal for our current position has taken their eye off the ball.

Todays game was there to be won, we blew it.

Point is the umpires are always poor in our games. It is starting to look suspicious.

Not much We can do about it, We still had our chances but blew them and they made the most of theirs , just like Port in the 3rd Quarter last week.

It is all about the "Process" and if we play as well as we did today we will win a lot more than we lose.

 

[dominguez]

If we play as well as we did today we won't finish top four.

True but We are building. Adelaide were 2-4 after 6 rounds in 1997 and 1998.

I think your right, but it's ridiculous to lose to teams that are not as talented as us.

Just should'nt happen. Look at the Eagles, they just dont drop games. Period! (Except against us )

Freo cannot expect another 9 out of 10 run home again. Won't happen.

I dont completely blame the umpires, though imo they did influence the result to a degree.
And yes i agree, the game was there to be won.
It's just disappointing when there is not a team effort for 4 quarters,
and it's always harder to chase.

This game was like a mirror image of last week.
We lost at both ends of the scoreboard.

Sorry but both teams We have played so far have not had a handful of players coughing up the ball as much to the opposition as much as we have.

That is what killed us.

Even Chad Fletcher will be out next week for the Eages .

I'm with you.

Gilmore makes Fletcher look like the best kick that ever lived...

The sad fact is that Fletcher would walk into the Dockers side and Gilmore would not even be considered for the WCE Rookie List.

Disagree.

We need short slow midfielders with dodgy disposal like I need genital warts.

 

[Frizzo]

If he starts in the Eagles midfield, he walks into the Dockers midfield.

Make no mistake Fletcher is a huge out for Freo next week.

Bloody hell WCE's depth is over-rated by these boards
Take out Cox and Cous, they struggle like everyone else lacking their two most important cogs

i found some evidence to disagree with this statement. its called rounds 1 and 2.

also i would say glass is our most important player. without a dominating FB we would find it a lot harder.

You're a super team with all four firing, a good team with Cox and Cous out.
Glass is good, but I don't see too many opposing teams getting good enough supply forward to worry you, if it was - for example - Graham filling in for him
Whereas Cox/Seaby is a big big gap

Take the WC talk to another board thanks.
