Fremantle - Not courageous enough to play football

Postby Rik E Boy » Sat Jul 12, 2008 6:13 pm

Freo turned up to Geelong today but they had no intention of playing football. They went the man at every opportunity but you wouldn't have thought the maggots were watching the same game when the free kick count went the Dockers' way 19-4 at quarter time.

Dean Solowman will get at least four weeks for his cowardly elbow to the face of Cameron Ling. It was the sort of act that has disappeared from footy years ago. Ryan Crowley's mission was to unsettle Gary Ablett but when it was his turn to put his head over the ball in a marking contest he shirked the issue the gutless sniper. Josh Carr, Mark Johnson and Jeff Farmer are all well and truly past it and had little interest in actually winning the football.

Freo - not courageous enough to play football. They got spanked and rightly so. Bunch of tossers.

regards,

REB

Solomon just apologised on Sports Tonight.

Good thing that he did but he should have never done it in the first place.

Get used to it mate.When you are the best team in the league you will make other sides play in a manner they dont normally to try and combat you.

Remember how those thugs at Glenelg and Norwood used to come after the Port Magpie blokes? Granger,Mahoney,Fiacchi were all victims of this ploy. :wink:

LOL. But at least Port could play. Freo are a joke. The funny thing is though, us Norwood and Yabs fans used to scream bloody murder at the 'Port thugs' but we all loved Macca and Salisbury respectively.

Solomon's act was very dirty and crude, Josh Carr your time is up, little shit stirrers who go around and snipe at people when the ball is 20 metres away are dogs.

We all know that was just fair retaliation Booney, as it is obvious you do too. :lol:
I did enjoy 28 & Grave Danger though, although it caused tension between me and my wife's wharfie father.
I think he may have tried to do a Danger on me if I hadn't been bigger and younger than him. :wink:

Watched the game at home on the box and saw what Sollie did. Get rid of him for the rest of the season. yes he said sorry but that was one of the lowest acts on the footy field and worse than Hall's Hit because Barry could have done some real damage but pulled out. Sollie Cocked the Elbow and did alot of damage. We saw the last of Jeff Farmer he will not play for Freo again and if Mark Harvey does play him he has rock's in his head time to retire Jeff. Memo to Mark Harvey if you want to play football 1980's style it will not work the cats out classed you once they got their heads together and you got spanked right where it matters most on the scoreboard.

This was always going to happen with Mark Harvey as coach. Crash-bang as a player; inarticulate as a coach.

Cant believe how moronic some AFL teams continue to be.
Every time teams try a thuggish or loudmouthed media approached they get absolutely smashed by Geelong, the worst thing to do when playing Geelong is to make them angry.
Play good solid attacking footy and you can get good results against Geelong like Collingwood do (and Freo did earlier in the year at Fre).
How do these morons that make these decisions at AFL gigs get a gig? Dumb Dumb Dumb

Can you explain to Brent Staker exactly how Barry Hall pulled out :? :? If you are referring to last weeks attempted punch well Hall was just lucky he missed. He certainly didn't intend to miss. The guy is scum and a dirty thug. Don't compare Hall to Solomon. Not even close. Sure Solomon's incident was awful and he deserves to be rubbed out for a long time but he is no Barry Hall.

Logically, yes. He wont be there if the club does manage to turn things around with yet another batch of younger players.

But this is Freo, anything can happen.
It's all the SANFL's fault.

Rod with Hall's punch he could have really F*CKED up Staker he didn't at the last minute barry took away just enough of his power not to do damage because a Punch like that to the jaw normally will break a jaw.

I reckon it stems from being in losing sides - frustration boiling over into stupidity!
