It's a rare, rare, rare, rare occasion that I find myself wanting my most hated of teams, Essendon to win, but this is one of those occasions.

Hope he becomes the next Eade/Wallace lauded early media darlings finished up winning same number of flags as Graham Gellie!

Re: I hope Fremantle lose tonight
Great to see Freo lose, however just looked at they re draw and they re almost guaranteed 7 more wins for the year , which would give them 13. They re playing for the same spot as us and I can only see five "easy" wins . We need two more upsets for the year . It's in our hands I guess. We really need to step up one notch if we re any hope for finals.

Re: I hope Fremantle lose tonight
I thought he approached the game entirely different to how he did v Bombers at St Kilda.
Tried to win in a shootout, probably came closer than if they had attempted to lock them down.
Makes me a little more confident v the Bombers this year, because Saints have a bit of pace at their disposal now.

Re: I hope Fremantle lose tonight
Have pace but do we have the accuracy in front of goal?

Re: I hope Fremantle lose tonight
You got your wish - and Rossy did not look happy - but the immediate future for Freo looks bright - their draw for the next five weeks after The Filth gives them four wins at least. Lucky for us and Richmond they did lose.

Re: I hope Fremantle lose tonight
Yeah they haven't improved on last year! Just maybe LYON was a coach who couldn't get the final job done with an excellent list whilst at the Saints...only time will tell! Its great to see him under the pressure he is calma is such a leveller in life!
SAINTS another day older another day closer to the Holy Grail!

Re: I hope Fremantle lose tonight
Probably not, but freo are 14th for points scored, with a % of 93. After they headhunted our gun coach, it's fair to say they are not where they want to be. I don't think Ross will get very long to get freo into the top 4.Teflon wrote:Their 6 goal first qtr wasnt strangulation...dragit wrote:Another nail in the coffin for strangulation footy.
They say defence wins flags but I would say that only one super defensive side (Sydney) has won one in the past 15+ years.

Regardless, Freo have a super soft draw coming up....and have beaten us in Melb.......

Re: I hope Fremantle lose tonight
I think he would have been mortified with their 1st quarter. Don't think it was by design at all.
The 3rd however, was textbook Lyon. Totally dominate the play, strangle the opposition - yet only kick 5 goals.
Dominating play and only kicking 5 goals just isn't good enough. You need to be able to hurt teams far more than that.
