Something else for Brad to drop off at Cashies for a bit more punting money.

Pity this arrogant loudmouth gets another plaudit while far more deserving WA candidates are left on the sidelines.

The headlines now will lead with AFL Hall of fame inductee leads call for good pal sumich to coach his beloved freo

As a footballer, he was brilliant. Pity the second career.

Yep, Hardie was a good player.

Very happy to see Ken Hunter given a bit of recognition. Very unassuming look of player, but he was courage personified.

Thanks Yeti, was interesting how Robbo said that Walters, Hill & Hill together would be something.
Didn't mention Harley, coz of that little altercation at the Brownlow all those years ago.

and coz he hasnt played for 3 and a half years

Well he may play very shortly, and listening to Ballas today he said that Sandi is half way thru a 6 week running program.

If sandi is 3 weeks away from a training session, then he won't take much to get to match fitness. Especially as we have lobb now, so they could go at 50/50 forward ruck. All sandi has to do is knock it down to ground and we are go!

We have the opportunity to let sandi build towards finals football which would be a bloody luxury. In the contest he is such a beast and he controls the play down the line so well - he isn't given credit for it but has a massive influence.

I think his down one line play is massive. Is Ruck work has been picked apart by opposition coach es & is more of a liability

Has it though? Opposition ruckmen always list Sandi as one of the hardest ruckmen to play against, even if he isn't the best in the league anymore. He's so big that he just wears people down.

We featured a bit in the trends podcast again, Lloyd was at the forefront of data analytics for the AFL in his time at Freo

I don't know why I'm so annoyed that not one Fremantle goal was good enough to feature in the goals of the year so far video. Not one... absolute rubbish.

No. I meant he is too good. Oppo teams would give up winning the tap & just shark his balls.

Matera's goal from the pocket against GWS was bloody amazing.

When we know we're going to win tap we should change tactics and have him tap further out hitting a running player rather than at feet for opposition to scavange.

Insiders this weekend (Barrie Cassidy's last one) will have a tribute to Matt Price

Exactly! Just annoyed that not one goal of Fremantles was good enough when the usual suspects have about 6 average goals each featured. None of them are as good as Matera's.

Eddie Betts was the best though.

I liked Barrett's sliding doors comment about Freo this week.
Slightly mirthful, yet not a dig at us at all.

three freo players in this all Australian team ironically using a metric called Pav.

If only the actual All Australian team was chosen with such metrics instead of it jut wouldnt feel like an all australian team without Joel Selwood.

 

[Ghost Pig]

this is the before and after of barich's conniving five mile stare when Moose dropped the s-bomb in his post hospital presser today, you can almost hear his brain groaning as he tries to think if he can spin it into something that will make his Nesbitt proud

 

[Allikat]

Poor Alex. I have this morbid curiosity where I want to know how he is & what's going on, but I also want to yell at him to go lie down and relax and recover at home and tell the press to f off.

How cute is he in his beige jumper though
