For sure, which means since we've been a finals team over a long period, we've often been behind in our preparation for the following season = we've been rusty for quite some time!Just on this point, the players have a mandatory minimum break after finishing the season and coming back to training, meaning that if you make the finals you can theoretacally be behind another team that didn't by at least a fortnight in your preparation. Legitimately something to consider.

Mind you rust doesn't seem to stick to Richmond, Hawthorn or Geelong so much. they can go deep into finals and back it up next season, and again..
It was all so underwhelming, I was just being flip with those terms or cliches 'rusty' and 'wants it more'...
But hey, the coaches use the same terms! Must be something in it?
Curious to know if Freo fielded their best 22, or had some quality out?
The number of times Meek just strolled out of the ruck with the ball was a bit frightening. Vardy actually won a fair share of taps but he had basically zero connection with our mids.Darcy was out but Meek destroyed vardy anyway.
No current season stats available
No Sean Darcy, Matt Tabener, Steven Hill, Griffin Logue, Nathan Wilson, Sam Sturt - all whom when fit I consider in/around the best 22. Others I don't consider best 22 who missed selection include Connor Blakely, Taylin Duman and Brett Bewley.Curious to know if Freo fielded their best 22, or had some quality out
Your not worried you couldn’t perform without them? Yeo has a nasty injury which could well drag on like daniher, and Kennedy and natanui are right at the end. Some of those players we missed, whilst they don’t have the accolades, and don’t compare yet, they are very important to us (particularly darcy and taberner), and most of them are still young. Sturt and Logue could be anything imo. People laugh at our “no names” missing but a couple of years ago no one knew of young, serong, Brayshaw and Cerra either. Logue was dominant before his injury last year.Many all Australians from that mob? It looks like a pretty impressive list.
We had a couple spuds out I guess, but they really don't compare to 3 gamer Sam Sturt, Taberner, Darcy or Logue though.
Yeo 2x AA
Kennedy 3x AA (2x Coleman)
Naitanui 2x AA
Kelly 1x AA
Potatoes don’t generally make 40 Man AA Squads or get rising star nominations. Just because you don’t know our players doesn’t mean they aren’t good. They’ve just been injured, a lot.No Sean Darcy, Matt Tabener, Steven Hill, Griffin Logue, Nathan Wilson, Sam Sturt - all whom when fit I consider in/around the best 22.

As you can probably tell from my avatar, I don't particularly like your mob and whilst I finally think we are moving in the right direction, this was only a scratch match. Yes, it's nice to win - but it literally means nothing...... unfortunately.

Well he kicked 29 in a shortened season, not far off Kennedy. Played less games and had a far from dominant midfield. 69% accuracy to Kennedy’s 60%. Has been injured most of the previous 2 seasons after starting incredibly well. But lets not let facts get in the way, please proceed.hey Tabs kicked 13 goals in a season once !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok, Freo it seems had some quality on the sidelines too - if not, that puts the Scratchie in better perspective. So it remains even more underwhelming now, but no different to previous Scratchies perhaps.Darcy was out but Meek destroyed vardy anyway.
