What did he say.
A regular Freo twitterer made mention of how many WA media personalities let their WC bias come through. Gossage responded with all the ex Freo players in the media and how come we don't complain about their inherent bias.
They had to actually play to even get a gig and then they work harder to hide any bias they might have.

Mildy interesting listen. Scroll down to Leppitsch on 1.6.2021 - 8:26
He uses us as a contrast to the Pies in terms of ball movement (attack). It's not about us but he talks about us for comparison.

Great listen and it’s sort of put our 47 point loss in perspective. I would much rather lose the way we have this season than play like a bunch of impotent tools like Collingwood. I only watched the Kayo mini of that Geelong game and I almost feel asleep.
I liked that we had all those good attacking stats (apart from laughable goal kicking) but we still had conceded less inside 50s than Collingwood. They are obviously not the gold standard, but still good we are being pansies anymore.
I forgot I was supposed to be excited about tonight. I mean, I support the clubs decision but I really like shiny toys, even ones from the bargain bin.
If they think anyone is watching they'll drag it out.

Squiggle rates their defense equal 7th. Ours 8th.
Squiggle factors in some expect score metrics I believe, other models that weight it higher would probably have our attack as higher than 13th
Yeah it does take into account accuracy (using scoring shots), but it doesn't totally correct it so if we kicked at league average we'd be higher in attack but not by the full amount. That's part of the reason it doesn't rate West Coast, they are super accurate and it doesn't think it is sustainable.

I think part of the reason the filth are so accurate is not just luck or skill but gameplan. I.E. it's based around scoring off backhalf turn overs = often kicking into a less congested forwardline with a non set defense. Of course if they can't generate those turnovers they don't look so hot.

Yes, that is definitely part of it. Same as the Hawks of old. Their shots are in good positions. Having said that, they also tend to nail the easy/moderate ones with a lot more regularity than most sides and I think that goes to the level of talent they have down there.
Just heard the tail end of belly on SEN with Dwayne Russell - nothing majorly of note.
Pulled out of the draft due to intel that the few players they would have taken would be gone by our pick and that turned out to be the case he said. We WOULD have selected a number of players that were picked early though which is interesting.
Very comfortable with where negotiations with Cerra are - said Adam is a very considered guy who is heavily invested in freo program every day.
Expecting a big crowd this weekend.

So to summarise.
Our picks were available at 8
Cez is gone
There will be 25K on Sunday
Is there a rule that if a club nominates for the MSD they have to take at least one player
G'day Dockers crew!
Ripping episode with Matt de Boer this week on Dyl and Friends, which I head up production for, which may interest you. Super deep thinker and quality bloke, and also speaks of his time at Freo!

They would never say who they wanted and not likely to say the player we wanted slid but we weren’t in it so…

You can tell Bell's lying because he's breathing
Anyone read P Haselby's article in the West today? It was a general analysis on how so called *stars* can often hinder teams development. (I'm pretty sure there are good stats on this as truth via the NBA.) Which of our *stars* should we give up? I reckon Walters is on thin ice and near contract end but probably the only one off top my head.
I'd let anyone over the age of 27 that had interest go for a reasonable price.

Have to agree, we didn’t even give ourselves a chance to pass.
