I would be amazed if Henry plays another AFL game this year. He’s nowhere near the required levelGreat win - great team performance tonight. Can't believe how Brodie just manages to get the ball out from the contest repeatedly. Each player supporting their team mates makes fast attacking football possible. Amiss will be great in a couple of years. The 2 weeks off for Chapman and Young after Covid meant they came in without a worry - enough depth to make sure this is the same for those players who missed with Covid this week. I will not discuss Henry as I don't want to take a hit on an opposition board - but so many have gone past him anyway that it doesn't matter . . .

I understand the sentiment, but take Goldstein, Ziebell, Simpkin and Anderson out and they are a side of under 35 games per player, nearly. We are at least 2 years ahead of them in development terms, before even considering coaching or club structures. Just IMHO though
In all honesty the round 2 game of WC vs Roos was potentially the worst AFL / VFL footy I reckon I’ve ever seen played.I thought north were absolutely shocking tonight. To be honest it was a bit demoralising watching how bad they were.
I can’t wait to see us play a decent team in a few weeks time.
The club made the most out of the salary put aside for Cerra grabbing those two, and then grabbed Amiss.Clark one of BOG for me 473 metres gained and most of them cutting up North through the middle with quick decision making.
Recruiting him and Brodie huge for the club
Although Fremantle media did create the Amiss Pun Bingo card didn't they?Shoutouts to Adam Papalia for not making an Amiss pun when Jye kicked his first, had the easy route as a commentator and didn't take it! Elite areas
Brodie has been 10 times better than Serong this season, so if any midfielder goes out it would be Serong.
I've missed you Esti.Thoughts on players...
- it only took me two games to forget how good Chapman is. Seriously, this guy is one of the best players we've ever drafted and manages to stand out in a team full of young talent as being a cut above the rest. I hope I'm not underselling him when I say he's like MJ and Roger got together and had a baby with Fyfe
- Brayshaw continues to make me feel stupid by being so much better than the safe, vanilla Masten clone I initially thought we'd drafted. I like to regularly remind myself of my early expectations of him to keep myself grounded about what a poor judge of talent I am
- Banfield - first half I was like 'this guy is making me look like an idiot', second half I was like 'this guy is exactly what I thought he is'. Regardless, it's handy when someone who kicks two goals a game is your emergency depth
- Darcy absolutely monstered a guy who was considered one of the best rucks in the game not that long ago
- Serong isn't getting the same clean ball he did last year but he's still a ferocious competitor affecting the contest around the stoppages
- Amiss pretty much matched my expectations - looked like he has the talent for AFL while also looking like it was too early for him
- Same could be said about Henry actually
Just shows enough to suggest that when it clicks he'll be a huge asset.I thought Henry did a couple of nice things and he tried hard.
The handball under pressure in the third was really good
He will be in and out for a while.
Gotta love the old "I'm not gonna" claim, then do anyway.I will not discuss Henry as I don't want to take a hit on an opposition board - but so many have gone past him anyway that it doesn't matter . . .
Been burnt too many times to get carried away.This team is improving faster than us fans can keep up with. It’s unreal at the moment as a supporter
You werent alone in the Chapman thing, it was doing my head in reading people not have Chappy best 22. Insanity, the guy is an auto-pick the rest of his 350 game careerThoughts on players...

Not saying anything hugely original here, but there’s something seriously wrong with this ranking points system if it has Goldstein above Darcy. Sure Goldy tried hard, but Swaggy was unstoppable.
I completely take back my complaints at the ground it wasn’t a 100 point win upon realising that, proud of the boysUs winning by just enough to keep the Weags on the bottom of the ladder is elite shithousery.
Was talking to Ryan post game on the ground so was up and moving at leastDidn’t see Switta in the rooms. Hope he’s ok.
good effort from you to post after your effort on the groundLoved how Brodie said “Fremantle have embraced me for the player I am”
GO YOU GOOD THINGS!!!
weren’t we actually below them in both somehow?Reminder also that we were on par with North in terms of experience and average age tonight
The little things like calling the boys in for Young’s first goal was heartwarming stuff.Don’t understand the Serong criticisms at all. He’s almost the heartbeat of the team if you ask me
For the rest of the career the question is almost certainly where he’ll play instead of if he’ll play. What a ****ing gunYou werent alone in the Chapman thing, it was doing my head in reading people not have Chappy best 22. Insanity, the guy is an auto-pick the rest of his 350 game career
What a horrible bitter twisted salty CNUT.
What is his problem?
Not only that but he both overran the ball after knocking it back and then beat the opponent to it... againHow good of a play was it when Amiss kicks it, almost goes in for a point - O'Driscoll TAPS IT BACK THE fu** INTO PLAY(!) to Cox who snaps it through!
