So glad I didn't get to this game. Shaping up as a 90 point loss.

Is there a worse team in the comp for goal kicking than us?

We're putting in but just like last week we're not getting any reward.

Umpiring is deplorable.


We have serious issues on the bench.

Lonie is rooted, Sinclair doesn't know what year it is and D-mac doesn't know his own name.

The Riewoldt on the boundary 50m out set play is such a pointless exercise. Happens 15 times a game for maybe 1 goal

Already switched it off. Got more important work to get done. Don't need to be distracted by that train wreck.

12 straight with one rushed behind. Then look at Gilbert and Roo. It's kindergarten stuff. Just like last week. Laughable really. Stick a fork in us .

Pick 5 looking good.

Freo have way too much to play for (two home finals and a week off).

The scoring pretty much shows the story. We have endeavour but poor skills, they are clinical.

So we have two left on the bench and they have three. Next year it will be two against four.

One less inside 50 - 24 to 25 and 4 less scoring shots - 10 to 14

We dominated play for a large section in that quarter but couldnt impact the scoreboard - actually happy with our endeavor but our kicking for goal is deplorable and they haven't missed - Injuries to 3 of our players (McKenzie, Lonie and Sinclair) hasnt helped either

Thought Newnes has been great, Goddard stepping up again and Roberton has been servicable as well

We tried so hard that qtr with 3 players down. It must be so demoralizing watching our goal kicking for the rest of the team. Goes up the other end and they don't look like missing. Gut wrenching. Can't ask for more effort.

Bruce needs a rest. Can't have him and Paddy not getting a touch. He's been off for a month now.

Looking pretty good in run and tackling and passing, but destroying ourselves with our shooting and allowing them to score far too easily when inside fifty.

Umpiring has been shocking. Silvagni doing his family name proud. Bigger scragger than his cousin.

Bruce hasn't played well since Paddy come into the team.

At one stage during that quarter Roo had his back landed on and then he was tripped and following that Freo players dropped the ball 3 times in tackles all within 20 metres of our goal and nothing

While watching the game on fox I grabbed a cheese grater and started grating my head which was so much more pleasurable than watching the game..
