Round 18

The fight for second spot is still up for grabs and the Pies have four outs but some pretty handy ins. We know it can't be because of the ground because they make them tougher in the eastern states or some shit. Looks like West Coast might roll the dice on the 19y old ruckman who is very athletic but very raw but I can't see it happening.

Freo v Sydney... gee I hope it's not raining.

Fun fact from the stats files.

Freo have played 599 game for 247 wins whilst Sean Burgoyne has played 370 for 247 wins also to go with his four flags. Sean Burgoyne>Fremantle Football Club.

If we're going to start using serious injury as an indicator of one’s ‘toughness’ then by your own admission Chris Masten is ‘tougher’ than Scott Pendelbury which would be bloody embarrassing. Carn Skull, if you’re going to try to get a rise out of me at least come up with something half clever.

 The big question is which

Fri, 2019-07-19 22:54

 The big question is which coach is the next to fall....

 

Lyon, Goodwin, Pyke....

 

I feel like there is a few twists in the AFL tail to come yet...

 

WC after not scoring for a half of footy against a pies side lacking confidence and a couple of their best players wouldn't want to give the Dees a sniff....

 

Freo wouldn't want to lose too badly tomorrow or Peter Bell might be looking for a new coach....

 

Do I give the Hawks a chance Uncle? No, I give Geelong a chance...

 

Richmond will begin to secure top 2 by giving Pt Adelaide a footy lesson... They aren't good enough to stir up Dusty n co....

 

I think that stat is the best you've had Jacky boy, I think that in his next 35 games I think his win/loss will of course continue to be better than Freos and another flag would look good on his resume...

 Sydney missed out on what appeared to be a glaring holding the ball by Fremantle near the end of the game that they may have scored from, though the ledger was squared somewhat with some high tackles by Sydney players not penalised.

Hope the Eagles put in a solid 4 quarters today. A win will set up a top 4 spot with a top 2 being very handy come the finals.

Only reason they are

Tue, 2019-07-23 07:31

Only reason they are 'amicably parting ways' is because Freo are going to bag a financial loss this year and can't afford to sack him. Surely Rosich has to be sent packing with him especially after over riding Bell and personally overseeing the Jesse Hogan debacle after Bell said they'd done their due diligence and scrapped a deal with Melbourne.

Tue, 2019-07-23 09:51

 Should have parted ways with him last year when he was "Ross the Inappropriate Boss".

 

Seems Ross leaving Freo is a sure thing. Not sure how he is 3 years through his 5 year rebuild and not 4, doesn't really matter anymore.

 

Who would be the likely replacement? Brad Scott, Suma... maybe Justin Longmuir?

 

Not sure why he is still regarded as a 'great coach' or 'super coach'. No flags, and I don't buy into he was a bad bounce away from one, or inaccurate kicking away from being a dual premiership coach either. Left Saint Kilda a basket case. Took the dockers to a GF, then minor premiers (out in straight sets) and from there 16, 14, 14 (from memory) and this year will likely be a 10-14 finish.

His 'brand' of footy is also horrible to watch. Only one team has kicked fewer points than the dockers this season, and that's GC. Last 3 weeks they have managed 31, 53 and 52.
