its a good day to be a Freo supporter today!!!!!!!!!!! even Taz kicked a goal.
Jeffrey did what we need, including 3 goals (could have been 6 but hes a bit rusty from the time off) and a very nice screamer, Josh Carr was simply brilliant! shutting down benny and kicked 3 goals...,
Warnock and Happy Gilmour excellent, Thornton did what he does best, (take the mark run hard through the centre and handpass to someone who can kick), and Peake was great to have back, how sweet it is...! :-)
nice to see Jeffrey wishing benny and wirrapunda all the best after the game too...
I'm so happy inside right now...have to keep it quiet and not upset my darling wife who supports the other mob passionately.
its a huge ask, still do or die for 4 weeks straight, but september is very much alive...
Mathematically there are 12 teams fighting for 7 spots in the finals.
geelong cant miss finals, kangas need one more win. eagles need 2 more wins, brisbane needs 3 more wins, and the rest IMO are very shaky;
port, hawks and pies need 2 wins to make sure, and its unlikely all three of these will miss the finals.
e.g.
we need 3 of the following 5 things to happen to get in (assuming we won all 4);
thing 1; for sydney to miss out we need them to lose 3 games to brisbane, pies, and either st kilda or hawks...
thing 2; bulldogs to lose 2 games to adelaide,hawks,melbourne, or kangas.
thing 3; eddiewood losing 3 or 4 games. (rich,mel,adelaide,sydney)
thing 4; port losing all four would kick them out...
thing 5 we need west coast to beat st kilda, and brisbane and geelong to both beat adelaide.
