Had a chance to elevate our season from Abject Humiliation to Severe Disappointment. Predictably failed. Two more to go, then freedom.

No 50’s paid for the 4 times Freo did what Murphy did.

Umps cost us 4 goals all up.

Shithouse third, good the rest.

Good first half
Kaka second half

This season can't end soon enough...

2 games until Doc and a host of players are back, plus draft and preseason. Looking positive again :-)

As a Murphy supporter he is severely testing me. If he has a chronic injury I would like the club to tell us.

If an injury is hampering him, tell us.

If he is out of form, tell us.

If he is cooked, tell up.

We have the worst captain in the history of this league. The short step effort on the wing was nothing short of disgusting. Let alone his multiple chips to 50/50 contests in the corridor. Lead or @#$%&! off and thanks for your 'service'.

How can we keep playing and having Graham on our list. He offers nothing. Pollsters not far behind

I haven't seen any of the game yet. I recorded it though and by the comments I might watch the first half and delete it.

Who is this host of players you are talking about? Pray that there is half a dozen good afl level mids in that group, if not, well lets just say that things aren't improving in the near future! Just on that, I've been reading on here for years about how underwhelming Gibbs has been over the last decade, I'm guessing right now that Cripps wishes he didn't leave!

Another game where one one uncompetitive quarter cost us the game, similar story to Pies, Eagles, Tigers, Sydney, Port and Cats games.
Kids showed a bit especially SPS and Dow.
Another captains game by our real leader Cripps.
Graham again showed how crap he is.
Murphy turns it over way too much
Charlie and McKay will be a greasiness duo in the next decade. Lukosious who ??
Like others says, really just hanging for the season to finish. Sick of a lot of these players who I hope to see the back of come season end

Three out of the four quarters were decent. We actually got the ball inside 50 and gave ourselves a chance, but poor execution as always and not enough contribution across the board from having too many young/inexperienced players or players who simply aren't up to the level killed us.

Nick Graham makes Tom Bell look elite.

What are our young players frightened of ? went into there shells in the second half and were basically invisible..............you can knock the old brigade as much as you like but we are stuck with them until the young 'uni put there hands up.The young Freo players run rings around 'em.That is the part that saddens me no end.Ther are given opportunity after opportunity and fail miserably............i am exasperated beyond belief.Do they have any ambition ? are they just satisfied to be on an AFL list ?

After this two weeks are over I want Doch, Cripps, Charlie, Weiters, Dow, Zac and Plowman to say “step aside, we’ll take it from here” to Murph, Kreuz, Ed, Thomas, Rowe and Simmo, and become the new leaders of this club

If instead they continue following their example and/or waiting to see what they do first before acting, we’ll be in deep shit next year as well.

It shouldn’t be that way and nowhere else would it happen, but this is the situation we’re in. It’s up to these kids to forge the new path, not follow a poorly laid out one by ineffectual and uninspiring leaders.
