Tanking issue put to bed - Lyon.

I agree. They are not tanking. They are just shite. Just not as shite as Essendon. Now back to tanking against everyone else except Brisbane. Who probably have more reasons to tank than Freo.

I'm curious to know if Ro$$y will fulfill his fiver year contract extension. Freo have really landed themselves in some strife over this move. I can't imagine RL effectively rebuilding a sand castle, let alone a football team.

Can't wait for them to trade out their top pick. Won't have their own pick in the first 2 rounds.

After all it's a 1 year rebuild. Can't waste time on those useless 18yr olds aye Ross.

Winning one game doesn't mean your not tanking ..see how easy it is to make people think your not tanking ..just win one game out of ten..suspicion over.

I honestly think Lyon is giving it everything he has. He is the type of bloke that is too proud to tank for draft picks.

There's not been a Freo game this season where I believe that they haven't given everything they've got. The only problem has been what they've got has been rubbish!

They havent been tanking they are just no good. Maybe with a fit Fyfe they could be 2-9. That is the best case scenario. The reality is the Lyon game plan is 10 years old and is exhausting for players physically and mentally. It was always going to end like this.

Tossco should quit now so he can at least hang his hat on something - that meaningless win loss ratio
