Strategy Changes: Round 4 Fremantle vs. Western Bulldogs

[freo84]

Sure looks like a target. I'm all for characters and people not being suck-up robots, but feels like Lobbsta has swung too much the other way!! Proper Knobb.

Feels like there's still some bad blood between him and the Dockers. Might get spicy on Sunday, hold on to your hairpieces!!

Definitely something there. Our boys seem to genuinely dislike him.

He makes it that way. The cringy Tik-Tok shit, and now this with the multiple hair changes. Man might be a bit tapped.

I just hope the team is focused on the bigger picture at hand, forget about him; almost feels like a distraction with his fatuous antics.

I hope they (Dockers) win just so he has to trudge off with that totem-pole-of-a-head-gone wrong and smirkless face wandering off into the bowels of darkness that is a footy tunnel when you've just lost

 

[Spirit Level]

This one will be fascinating to see how the different gamestyles interact.

Ok Gerard

 

[thistimeforsure]

They might want invest in a nit comb down there at the kennel

Has he got his shorts on backwards ?

C@#k Knobster

I almost fell off my chair when I realised I could read your messages.

You finally got rid of the app aye

 

[DocT]

100% we must not target Lobb with faux aggression. We tried that and it backfired miserably. The guy deserves the nickname Lobbknob but if we get distracted from our footy we will lose badly.

 

[Boppo]

Worner was very good defensively. He had some cat 10 errors, twice, but otherwise was very good.

Yeah agree. One terrible 20 pass direct to opponent but otherwise he moves well and contests well enough.

 

[lankyt]

Ok Gerard

And he gave you a thumbs down for your reply.

 

[oldgoat]

I think we need to improve the skill of our entire team.

And kick more goals etc.
I still think were travelling ok.
I believe were underestimating the need to bed in changes and getting new elements and structures humming.
Like bringing in Bolton, Reid and Dudley.
Like accepting Jackson as first ruck.
Thats a new team already!
Yokai!

 

[PeopleEater]

The last few years imo we seem to gather team cohesion around round 4 so we'll see what goes on. Hopefully a close game that is more skilful from our perspective and signs of understanding each others' role better.
Not holding my breath though

Good points brother, Reid and Dudley with 4 games between them! Bolton with only 2 at his new club; rusty and still finding his feet (but looking every bit the quality we know him to be..). Young and Darcy out. Still think Darcy/Jackson can work, and Voss is maybe the fall guy there, but he's also doing his bit for a 10-gamer or whatever it is (??). I mean the misses are frustrating, sometimes even infuriating...but the talent is there!

The problem is we just need time for the team to gel, grow and get better. The hard part is you don't have a lot of time with an AFL flag to chase, the pressure is mounting. The team can't use the revolving door of staying "young" forever, it needs to be in a true position to say "now" when it states it's going to challenge.

But there's a lot of talent here, it's just a matter of whether Justin can maximise it or not, that's his 'challenge' as coach. It's do or die Justin, there's no tomorrow for you here if you don't get this mob into finals!

Treacy will be playing V Lobb. He needs to dominate in the air.
But my favourite will be Voss. He ll smash and talk back to him. Love that guy’s attitude. He doesn’t GAF

We can't put it on Treacy's head. Need to kick it to his advantage, so that Treacy can control space and get easy marks.

He would be a lot stronger than him, I think he would be faster, but he is giving up 10cm's plus additional reach.

It will get feisty. You can just about guarantee it

And he gave you a thumbs down for your reply.

Makes a change from the usual laughing emoji, nice to see them change it up a bit.

 

[Randomizor]

No Young

 

[The Lobbster]

Raz dropped to emergency. Worner retains his spot (potentially as sub). Not a fan of this, and pretty much guarantees that Raz will leave if he gets an offer from someone else

 

[David Bubb]

I'm sure the reaction to Worner over Erasmus will be calm and rational....

He should

Ras has been alright. Worner keeping his spot is scary, shows JL has his favourites. Dreadful decision, absolutely f***ing ridiculous

[bone2468]

I need to learn new breathing techniques, if JL could play 18 defenders at a time I’m sure he would

 

[FreoRicci]

Not going to bother to react.
Worner as sub will be the icing.

Named 8 defenders. 4 that do the same role.

Cool

 

[Purple Jesus]

****ing he’ll.
