Shackleton's a bit stiff

I didn't think Shacks was impressive, just didn't do anything wrong. I agree he was a bit stiff, but who ever else you drop was probably going to be a bit stiff as well, except Shaw who had a shocker. I the real young kids did ok last week, It'll be interesting to see how Maxwell plays with a bit more responsibility with Presti, Wakes and Cloke out.

I would love to knock that smirk that Connolly has off his little round face and beat the Dockers. However i dont think were up to it.

For us to win we need a 40 possession game from Bucks or Lica with Burns kicking four. I doubt we will play Taz.... if were going to win we have to dominate the midfield because we dont have a forward line or a backline.

For some unknow reason im developing a hate for the sexually frustrated purples from the West.

Because they're good?. It's normal to dislike teams that are successful... i do. For some reason, i don't hate Freo.. i don't really like their supporters, but i don't mind the team.

Anyway.. we are not a chance in hell of winning this.. sorry, but i just can;t see us being able to kick enough goals, and to stop enough goals to win this one. If it was at the MCG, i would say we were a huge chance, but we have already proven that we can't play at Subi, and it won't be any different this time. I'll be working until 10 tonight so i wont get to watch any of the game, but i just hope we put on a good performance. Come on Pies.. LETS SMASH THESE PURPLE *****

Fremantle must be pushing every inch of the salary cap.

Headland, Farmer and Bell did not move to the club cheaply. Add Pavlich, Haselby, Medhurst along with Polak and i think Freo may have some problems.

The Torres bounce is officially dead. You are walking alone now Fernando.

pies to win by 11!!!!!!
Yeah we have no tall defenders but freo is not exactly the tallest team going around.
Now people have been saying that we wont be able to kick enough goals but in the past few games we have managed to kick more goals than we could with our 2 tall forwards it seems that without them they realise they all have to step up, and with taz back in hopefully that doesnt go out the window - im pretty sure it wont cause tax is like a midfielder in a forwards body so come on pies and do us PROUD!!!!
Partyn & the pies is there nemore to life???

hey magpie meg,
watched some of freos game last weekend. they had Simmonds at FF, Longmuir and Sandilands rotating thru forward. Those guys arn't tall if you're 7 foot three, to anyone else, they're tall.
Taz won't play.
Australia does not end at Eucla.
