LOL, we've been talking the team up on here...but we've been behind 'terrible' Freo pretty much all day. Sorry, but I reckon we're done.

If nothing else, this game shows why we cannot challenge with our current list and coach. Our forward entries are deplorable and give our forwards no chance, and when our forwards do get an opportunity they don't convert.
Would we have done better today with Paddy, Longer, Steven, Carlisle, Roberton and Hannebury in the team?

Decision making this qtr has been outrageously poor.

Simplistic.
Freo are blocking space well.
Players are making some poor choices. Not thecoach

The game was ripe for the taking, but sloooow ball movement inside 50 and terrible conversion in front of goal cost us yet again.

I reckon we’ve lost at least half a dozen games over the passed 2 years from that alone. You think it would be something Mr 33% would have addressed in that time...

Simple fact, we've only managed 31 goals in 3 matches.

Coach gets the players to practice goal kicking at training.

Probably our best performance of the year. Let a win slip away
