What a horrible side

[Wizard]

4 goals down already against the side everyone thought was going to finish bottom on our home deck. This could very well be a 2-20 season, Daniel Rich Cup against the Eagles in a few weeks.

Welcome to our world.

Sucks doesn`t it

 

[T-D-J]

make that 5 goals down, I'm not sure I want to watch.

Freo - you guys are doin a great job to really piss melbourne off. They win today and loose their chance of getting Watts and Warnock. Love it!!! Keep tankin Freo and get them beloved first draft picks !!!!!! he he he

 

[estibador]

That's the worst I can remember seeing Freo play for a long, long, long time.

Can hardly touch the ball and when we do we fumble. No chasing or effort at all. It looks like we aren't even trying. It's like watching the eagles.

I can only assume we're throwing the game to hand the eagles the wooden spoon.

Watts won't go interstate, and we will be the lowest place victorian team no matter what. Watts is ours. Anyway Freo are ****ing horrible.

I'm glad the club is getting an enema at the end of the season.

One thing that i think needs to be said is, despite what some people on here seem to think, players dont tank, coaching staff do.

There is a piece of really bad news for us in that, the skills you see the players displaying really are where they are at (at least today).

I think tanking is given far too much attention these days anyway (pretty sure most people going on about it are less than mature in their years). Once your year is gone why shouldn't coaches experiment with players and positioning? It has been done since time immemorial If a bonus is that you get a slightly better draft choice, who cares?

Having said that how can Harvs do this to us (if indeed he is). Just not sure docker's fans can take much more

For that reason expect some position changes and at least a bit of a rally.

And knowing Freo's drafting and trading record they'll get the wooden spoon and swap their Number one draft pick for Jason Johnson....... I'm pissing myself laughing now.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Laughing at your own terribly predictable joke. Bit sad really..............

The whole idea of tanking is bs IMO... Carlton really were that bloody bad in recent years...
And its annoying because no team will ever be allowed to do shit again and not be accused. Its jokeworthy really...

Just coincidental that both WA teams have bottomed out at the same time...

Just happens to be the same time that there is a seriously awesome crop of WA kids coming through.

As a side note: Brock O'Brien looks very good.

Totally.

Like I said I think coaches experiment for the following year, draft picks would be somewhere way in back of their minds.

It depressing to think we will have to put up with threads on tanking dominating these boards every year. Boring!

 

[Dagless]

Fremantle though have an awesome set of players to build around...
Pavlich up forward, Sandi in the ruck still.. And then some young gold in Ibbo, Palmer and Mayne (I rate Ibbotson the highest out of the three)
Shame about Warnock wanting out, because that kid has serious talent...

Won't be too long with that crop that either WA team will be down for too long...

 

[T-D-J]

Good to see on the TV Harvey about to explode before quarter time.

Meh people want to amuse themselves with those crap threads where ever, pretty sad really... Rather than be happy with their own crew

 

[Wizard]

FWIW i dont think we are tanking, just a horrible side.

Almost as funny as using a top 5 pick on Bradley them delisting him a couple of years later, or giving away pick 23 for Richard Cole, or picking up Mark Bolton at pick 4 and giving him a 10 year career when he wouldn't be employed as a waterboy at other clubs....

People who live in glass houses...

Re: The Battle of the "Tankers"

Anyway Freo are ****ing horrible.

So what does that make Melbourne after that quarter?

 

[Bradesmaen]

The side isn't that awful, just lacking confidence. Look at the second term once we got confidence from 2 goals. We ran them riot.
