We all know Freo are shit and its accepted, we all know Melbourne are shit and its accepted,and for some reason everyone puts pressure on Richmond every year with expectation ect and just wont accept it, their coach is in the papers ,they make front line news,why are they special.........the bottom line is they are PURE AND UTTER SHIT!
They are just a High profile pile of shit which in my book makes them the shittest of them all.

I saw Newman today standing the mark when Melbourne were kicking for goal in the last quarter when the game was in the balance, he didnt even gets his feet off the ground or hands above his shoulders to try and block the kick or at least make the Melbourne player kick it over him.....shows the spirit of the team when you Captain does that...absolutely disgusting

You can handle following a poor team if they dont have the cattle or skills but when they dont even try it must be so frustrating

I think Richmond are the better team but Freo defiantely have the better future - cause at least they are playing the kids and having a dip

i think if they were to play each other right now the tigers would beat the dockers, not by a lot though.

Since 1995 both Freo and Richmond have made 2 finals series. Freo have finished last once Richmond twice. Richmond made the prelim in both their finals series while Freo did in one of their finals series. Nothing in it from 1995 to now. As for right now well Freo are probably in better shape to improve over the next couple of years.

Both shite. Would put Freo just in front though. Will be interesting coz freo only play Richmond once in round 10 at Subi, wheren Richmond seem to do pretty well and Melbourne once at the G where you would expect Melbourne to win again.
I don't see Freo winning more than two games this season, which makes my life really hard considering my wife is a Freo supporter.
Can't see Richmond winning any games besides there game against Freo at Subi.
In conclusion I think Freo will win two games for the season, Richmond one, that game they win though will be against Freo at Subi, leaving me very confused at which team I think is shitier.

Didn't know that Richmond's first year was 1995. At least Richmond has been in the last day in Sept.

Both clubs should have new coaches by Round 22 if not the mid season split round.

Mighty Eagles

Fremantle have brought us a diabolical jumper, a diabolical song and the diabolical "chip kick" game plan.
Their sole good point is that they have allowed us to see Matthew Pavlich play.

Should be renamed the Fremantle Diabolicals

I feel for Richo because he slogs his guts out every week. You'd be hard pressed to find a player who works harder the ENTIRE match. No wonder he sprays his teammates.

I agree with what Malcom Blight said on Saturday night. Fremantle don't need a new coach. They need a reality check. Their skills were horrendous on the weekend and it's not the coach's fault. These guys are professional AFL players with genuine skill but their heads are not right at the moment.

With better disposal the Dockers can improve.

Add onto that the lack of impact Chris Tarrant has had.

He just looks uninterested and lethargic.

Axe him, give the forward line to Pav.

While no one can argue with Tarrant's lack of impact since he got to the club, his last 2 or 3 weeks when he has been down back he has been pretty good. One of the Freo players who can at least hold their heads up in the last 2 games.

He needs to stay in defence.

Surely a coach has some responsibility to address all of that though?
