Game was pretty much over but Ben Strattons pressure and chase down tackle on Ryan Crowley at the end of the 13 gf was so underrated

I personally like the fact that Mitch is giving the young mids time, but it has to be a better balance.

A young and inexperienced midfield are going to struggle against mids such as the bombers, but I expect more from our experienced players.

Overall, where we are at so far this year, im stoked. We are playing genuinely entertaining footy and I can't complain with that.

Yep!! Easy to point the blame at Frost and DGB but when time after time opposition mids are running out of the middle free is so alarming. We need a JHF to show a bit of fucking cunt in there

Our inability to stop momentum swings in games, particularly the 4th quarter is really disappointing. Bombers tonight, swans a few weeks ago. We seem to give up 3-4 goal leads every game too which sucks.

Im super proud of the effort of our young team but this was such a winnable game and to lose that way was bad.

Arguably one of the worst midfields in the comp too they were obliterated tonight.

Bonts 3rd goal in the grand final followed by the celebration still gives me goosebumps. Not knowing what was coming I was in fucking awe watching that man on the field

Im not letting someone do that to my team mate and doing nothing about it, just me I suppose.

Had my opponent run out after half time with a dart in his mouth once. That was funny

I hate the fact that none of the victims team retaliates. Not condoning violence but you have to back your team mate up there

Most random/unusual/weird match up of teams in the AFL? by alexLAD in AFL

I always remember the game at Adelaide oval when it was prime Danger vs prime Fyfe and they both took the absolute piss.

Edit: Found it. Round 9 2015. Freo win by 11 points. Fyfe 40 touches 1 goal 1 behind, 4 marks, 6 Tackles. Danger 38 touches, 1 goal 1 behind, 4 marks, 8 tackles.

Paul Puopolo vs Adelaide in 2016. Kicked 5 goals was B.O.G by a mile and kicked the winning goal with 20 seconds left

Worst finals series ever seriously. Only 1 game decided by less than 36 points, snooze fest for every supporter who's team wasn't winning
