AFL - Round 10

 

So the next round begins tonight . I’m prone to flip flopping to my detriment but here we go

 
Geelong for me
Shitney
Doggies
Melb
Bombers tentatively
Crows
Pies
Roos
Weagles
 
Indigenous round and freo have 7 boys playing , I think we’re going to be treated to some good footy this weekend by some of the indigenous players digging deep .Unfortunately for Freo that also means the likes of Eddie and Cameron will most probably rip us a new one . However stranger things have happened and Freo under 40 @ $7.00 is not a bad roughy .
 
Hawks will surprise me if they get up , but I’ve been surprised a few times already .
 
Pies need to absolutely smash Brissy
 
Apparently all the weagles mums are going to their home game this weekend so that gives me confidence they should get up .. especially with GWS only having half a team

Fucked up my tip and fucked up my multi.....

 

I reckon 9 of the Giants best 22 didnt play and they still made the Eagles look B grade....

 

If the injury to Kennedy is serious they will be lucky to make the 8.....

EDIT I see he was listed as injured

Mon, 2017-05-29 14:29

His game plan is pretty much a) kick it to Kennedy b) bomb it into the forward line and hope for the best.

He's going to have to pull a rabbit out of the hat now. Might see the return of Emac along with Barrass and the intercept marker and McLovin playing at full forward.

Happy GWS salvaged something

Sun, 2017-05-28 18:49

Happy GWS salvaged something out of my weekend.  The rebuilding dockers were shockers last night away to the top team.  Absolute shockers.  But the 'contenders' cant beat a reserves team at home.

 

At least freo supporters can sit back and see some improvement as our list matures.

Sun, 2017-05-28 19:11

 I'd love to be a team playing the Eagles in the coming weeks, the bye cant come quickly enough for the Eagles, St K & the Gold Coast who should beat the Eagles next week...

 

Going to be an interesting period to see who definitely wont play finals and who remains a chance....

 

Sydney play the dogs which will put a line through them if they are beaten...

 

Hawks play Port, not confident but they've shown patches of great footy and if they can manage a win in Adelaide that might kick start their season. If not also put a line through them....

 

Above the Hawks are Nth Collingwood and Essendon... I cant see any of them playing finals this year...

His role is to get the ball

Mon, 2017-05-29 05:42

His role is to get the ball and run.  Pointless having every single player on the inside and noone to recieve it.  The fact that he is by himself all the time is there are very few players who can run with him all day.

 Be interesting to see how the coaches respond at the selection table next week .. 

 
Freo have some backmen in the wings chomping at the bit to come in , so thinking either one or some of Ibbotson , Sutcliffe and even Spurr could be in strife . In saying that the whole team was flat yesterday but they're our weakest link .
 
Weagles NFI what they're going to do 
 
I see the Pies are making the big trip to Perth next week .. 
 
Speaking of MIA haven't seen Ranmar for a couple of weeks

Titus O'Reilley's review of

Mon, 2017-05-29 17:13

Titus O'Reilley's review of saturday nights effort.

Possums.

Nailed it.  Even i can laugh at freo's performance.

 

 

 

Adelaide (143) v Washington Generals (43)

 
It’s hard to put into words just how inept the Dockers were in this game. Let’s just say, if you’d released a group of confused possums onto the ground, you’d have had more structure and probably a higher score.
 
Adelaide certainly played well, but that would be taking away from the performance of West Australia’s most embarrassing AFL side. The Dockers players were as disinterested in this game as I am towards going outside.
 
Even Nat Fyfe had a terrible game, with 13 clangers. He even gave away six free kicks. To be fair, it’s hard not to kick clangers when your teammates are actively working against you too.
 
Failing to get over 50 points is a problem for any team, but luckily Ross Lyon is a defensive mastermind and managed to restrict the Crows to just 143 points.
