        I believe that is the 3rd free kick shot at goal so far for them.

        BBBBH can't get anything and their front running little ****s get everything!

            They've all been there though - we are playing from behind, 2nd to the ball - that's what happens.

            At least there's scoring in this game, unlike anything in any of our games for the last month.

            Freo 6.5.41 - Syd 3.1.19 at Qtr time.

            We have no structure whatsoever going forward, and when we do go forward, our disposal is terrible.

            Clangers: Syd 20 Freo 6

            I'm on the Chandwagon!!!

            If you cannot compete for the premiership, it's better to be young and exciting than middle-aged and dowdy.

              4 words to describe this match so far:

              Free Kicks

              Swans = Crap.

                They (like us) won't win any finals - they have the wrong sort of players for finals - all skinny types relying on good conditions.

                Won't work against Brisbane etc.

                J Bolton has committed about 5 of those clangers I think.

                  Also forgot to add - if only Willo played last week - you could tell the difference when he was near the ball this week - granted he was blocked out in the 2nd half of that 1st qtr though.

                    Poor skills, getting smashed at clearances, Goodes shouldn't be playing, he can barely sprint. And the usual two things I hate about playing away games: umpires and the biased commentary. GRRR!

                      The free kick to Cook was Bull**** - he just dived forward Wanganeen style.

                      BBBBH in danger of going nuts I fear.

                        Micky O cant let his man Woods come in on Hallys contests he should be providing an equaly good option 15 metres away so this cant happen.

                            This is crap on so many levels.

                            We're playing poorly.
                            Second to the ball on most occasions.
                            Our game is very stagnant - there is no run at all.
                            Way too many errors.

                            Umpiring is ridiculous. Farmer's and Bell's free kicks in front of goal were fairly soft.

                            Cook's was a disgrace - Maxfield tackled him around the waist, drag him to his knees and then Cook fell forward.

                            Interestingly, they did exactly the same thing to Hall at the other end a minute or so later, but no free kick. What does Hall have to do to get a kick? Haddrill is hanging onto him on every occasion.

                            We're being killed out of the centre.

                            I've worked out why our clearances are so poor. We stand around the ball in big groups, hence there is not enough space to get the ball and no one outside the pack to give it to. Classic example midway through the first qtr - on D50 Kirk runs into a crowd and gets the ball, looks to handball it out, but is surrounded by 4 Swans and 3 Dockers, hence no space for him and no one to give it to. They need to work it out a lot better than that.

                            Very poor so far.

                            Captain Logic is not steering this tugboat.

                              The Farmer free kick was worse than the Cook one - both of them shouldn't have been frees and both lead to goals *ugh*
