Preview 2024 Round 2 Freo v Roos

[mike91]

I was always taught not to represent opinions as facts.

Cool man, I was always taught 55% disposal efficiency and 6 turnovers from 11 touches is a s**t game, but you do you

 

[mike91]

I am nervous that Emmett might be sub. Hope not, back him in, his pressure is damn good

Why on earth would Emmett be sub? He's one of only a few small forwards on the team. Sub should be JOM. Takes over the role of Ras last week. I'll lose my mind if he starts over Emmett.

Pressure good, ball in hand not so much.

 

[mayne iac]

Agreed.
He was hitting some areas that were making me very nervous

Yep,
He slipped on draft night because he LOOKS like he could be a very good footballer buuut ....

I wholeheartedly agree mate, I just don't see JL making O'Meara the sub.

 

[Quay Club]

I would be surprised if they make Emmett sub.

Our pressure was manic after qtr time last week and I am sure they would want to maintain that level of intensity.

He offers that tackling pressure and creates opportunities for others.

 

[Arkhitect]

Freo to win comfortably by 30-40 points.

 

[freo1997]

Feel like we’ll just win.

 

[freo1997]

More confident smashing Adelaide than smashing Roos away.

 

[poshman]

Freo to win comfortably by 30-40 points.

Slightly conservative, but...

 

[poshman]

More confident smashing Adelaide than smashing Roos away.

So we will smash both, but beat Adelaide by more?

I like it!

Are we mature enough not to get complacent against North? That’s what worries me.

 

[pK75]

Are we mature enough not to get complacent against North? That’s what worries me.

I am hoping the injuries to Cox, Chapman and Darcy are enough to make the team think we’re still backs against the wall and need to maintain the intensity to get the away win.
Complacency is the killer at this level, just ask the dogs about their WC game last year.

I understand the concern as it has been an issue in the past. However, we are a different team now on a different level.

26 hours from now it will be party time and I will be chasing the wife around the house!

1 game is enough ? You sure?

i have a spare room if the wife prefers some peace.

 

[poshman]

I assume you are talking about the footy and not the wife?

I think last season was a great learning experience for the team. They came into the year high on themselves and were humiliated. The talent has developed, Jye and Jackson are so good they will be remembered right up in the Pav/fyfe echelon of players and they are not all we have.

We will want to win and win big tomorrow.

Haha if I don't chase her she starts wondering what is wrong pretty quick!

poshman has been lining up the romance for days, foreplay world record attempt

This year is going so well that even bad injuries are turning in our favour. Draper will get experience and development which will show case his talent and cover for future issues.

Darcy will come back in the team, fresh and play out the year while Jackson just roams and dominates. And we had our complacent game last year in round 2.

What a year to support freo!

 

[Duz97]

If we can go 4-2 after the eagles games we are a shot at top 4 have to go 3-3 minimum to be a chance at top 8
You’d think we beat Roos and eagles then have to pinch one against blues and crows

It is all part of the dance, be helpful here, a small note there, thankful attitude, peaceful home...

I just flop it out and she’s putty in my hands. Simply irresistible.
