Roast Vent Here

[FreoRicci]

Shouldn’t be winning 10 of the last 12 games and still missing finals.
It’s always the start. Every year.

4-5. Loss to St Kilda, Melbourne, Sydney and Geelong early. Inexcusable.

The club have to say it’s at least 8-2 or bust.
It’s incredible the team went from 4-5 to 10-5. Then 15-6.

The team goes 8-2. Then it’s 18-4. Easy as that.

One time or a decade of just coasting through wins like Geelong are. One time.

Relying on the last 2-3 weeks is overkill and anxiety inducing

Need to wait 9 days to find out we won't be playing finals after a 15 win season

Seriously that was a preview into finals. No point making it if we’re gonna shit the bed anytime there’s a do or die game.

 

[holy diver]

Stop playing ****ing COLDPLAY FFS.

 

[Farrand]

I always say, my favourite memory of not making the final was when they use to do the "if you don't want to know the score, look away now" and seeing that a severely depleted Melbourne had destroyed us at the MCG.

Stop playing ****ing COLDPLAY FFS.

Coldplay and Dokka the Quokka are both scourges that should be removed from our gameday experience.

**** that Quokka. Seriously.

 

[holy diver]

How does Coldplay or DTQ align with Wharfie Time, AC/DC or Queen inspired rock that we have going?

Coldplay has become a meme for rich elite hypocrite cheaters on KissCam. The club needs to put Coldplay into an Artillery Gun and fire it past Rottnest Island.

I honestly feel like crying.

I was 6 when Freo debuted in 1995 and I've followed them ever since. When I was living in Perth, Shaun McManus and Daniel Bandy came to my primary school to promote themselves. I never watched AFL before that I was hooked.

30 years later and we have absolutely nothing to show for it. Nothing. Nada. Zip. Zero.

Every time the big lights hit Freo, they fold like wet cardboard.

I legitimately feel like Freo will never win a premiership, at least while I'm still alive, and I'm almost 36 now.

Try turning 60 this year and facing the reality of never seeing a flag before I die.

 

[serial_thrilla]

**** that Quokka. Seriously.

Honestly. If I had the choice of removing Bailey Banfield or Dokka the Quokka, I'd get rid of the rodent without a second thought.

 

[Farrand]

Maybe we need to go to the Brisbane model of players choosing their goal kicking songs. Maybe that will get them to focus more so they can hear it.

 

[FreoRicci]

Heartbreak of 25 August 2024 is going to be topped by 24 August 2025 isn’t it?

Don’t know how much longer of this is tolerable. It’s always counterintuitive to living a free life

Voss would have done well playing Pink Pony Club tonight.

 

[Farrand]

Voss would have done well playing Pink Pony Club tonight.

I wonder if he got a telling off last week. Seemed very subdued this week.

 

[s_wd6]

Why can’t we just miss finals the normal way

 

[Catalpa]

The tone was set tonight by the singer who turned Simply the Best into a lullaby half an hour before the game. Great song to rouse a crowd, but she was doing sing-along for a peace and love sit in.

Things didn't improve all night and I agree the Coldplay song is whimsical rather than exciting.

 

[sumavich]

Coldplay sucks, and my membership is on life support

 

[Schauermann]

Setting it all up for an even better finish then last year:

2024: Top 4 with 4 rounds to go and miss finals.
2025: Top 4 with 2 rounds to go and miss finals.

Yay!

 

[G Mus]

Don’t really care about making or missing finals, a performance like tonight will always show up again in a big pressure final, just a vanilla team

 

[nurries]

Setting it all up for an even better finish then last year:

2024: Top 4 with 4 rounds to go and miss finals.
2025: Top 4 with 2 rounds to go and miss finals.

2026 : Top 4 with 1 round left, teams 5-8 all win we lose and come 9th

That’s the thing isn’t it.


A team , put out by a club that constantly bottles it.

Stan Alves comment about knowing what you’re going to get from your players each week has never been more apt…unfortunately you know what you’re going to get from about half the team…most of it is bad

 

[Achin joints]

Dog shit just ****en dog shit

Try turning 60 this year and facing the reality of never seeing a flag before I die.

My old man didn't make it (2013 was his only chance).and he took me to the first Derby. I'm not near 60 but I'm not too far off given im a bottom age GenX. I now gravely share the same concerns.

I'm not sure if some our our younger fans realise what a curse this club can be. You just wait and wait and wait and wait for something...
