Live Scores Round 1

[Jim05]

Freo should win this now.

[JK]

Freo goal, and it's 4 pts the diff with a smidge over 3 mins to go. You'd have your house on the opposition here in normal circumstances, except it's Freo.

Dockers are monties from here, in front now

[gadj1976]

Mitch Clark been concussed and can't stand, another off for the Lions lol this is unreal

I can see why he cuts his hair short....he's got the Ricky Nixons about him.

I could've said Ricky Nixon's love child.

Waters kicks a goal from a VERY dodgy free (and possibly OOB to McPhee) and the Fockers are up!

[dodgingandweaving]

Incredibly bad missed holding the ball against Hill and Freo goal thru Fyfe, 4 points the difference

Live it looked like he made contact with his shin.... But from behind, he didn't even get anything on it.

[dodgingandweaving]

Loving Fyfe in the Dream Team.

[goraw]

been a great night of footy re excitement

[Jim05]

Freo will just run down the clock now.
Freo will win

[JK]

Free to Waters was def there, the missed one on Hill was a shocker .. What an opening round, 4 games with result unkown with 5 mins to go in the last quarter

[GWW]

A good win to the Dockers.

[Jim05]

If brown is long term, lions are shot

[goraw]

brisbane must be thinking wtf do we gotta do to win a game! i think it sets them back more than just this loss!!!

Yeah the Lions crowd have every right to be bitter about losing that, being ripped off with crucial Hill play-on call

Bit harsh to pin point one mistake.

What about the goal they gifted the Dockers after their runner ran through the mark

wouldnt have been the only bad call of the night, and on the first replay, it did look like he got his slipper on it, pretty harsh on the ump in my opinion.

I'm a believer that no game is won or lost on 1 decision no worries there, was just mentioning it was a bad one (thought it was pretty clear in normal time actually).

Even if they pay the free there's nothing to suggest the Lions would have held on anyway, and there's ne excusing their defending on the Sabdilands mark and goal to keep Freo in it
