    Freo just look slow.
    Hopefully the Magpies don't know how to hold a lead

    All this Collingwood bounce off half back doesn’t happen against a team with a half decent forward line.
    'Delicious' is a fun word to say

    How did Freo get this far? They don’t take take the game on, don’t overlap, can’t hold marks (Pies have also dropped them), fumble all over the shop and can’t score .

    Yes I agree they are very stagnant. You can't win playing like that. Looks like Collingwood will be our opponents next week.

    They're possibly the most boring team in the league.

    And we'll have to be at our best to knock them off. I hate to admit it but they're good.

    Yes! I hadn’t watched last half of last week’s game as picking up kid’s from various activities until later on Friday. Then flew to Fiji on Sat morning, . Watched replay today. Oliver looked a mess (usually does) - and the damage to cheek was from last week.

    Having said that, there was definitely contact with the eye from Berry. He will serve a week I reckon. Played a great game.

    Freo were the second best defensive side in the league during the H&A season, so clipped a lot of games. But they were only 12th in scoring and barely ahead of Adelaide and Bombers. You’ve got to find a way to score against teams with good defences in finals and they’ve struggled.

    Pies wasting chances. Could come back to bite. Could be up by 50.

    Yes their run is unbelievable. The last time we played them we were able to stop that, apart from 5 minutes in the last quarter. We have to bring the pressure as well as control the ball. Simple 🙂.

    This is a v soft audit of the Pies .
    3 goals in an hour and a half by Dockers.
    So unimpressed.

    Finals week 2: knock yourselves out.

    Weak effort to tackle there, Clark. Flagmantle? Don’t think so.

    At least put in a decent last quarter effort - come on!
