No real champions tonight. I was amazed to see we had 74 tackles which I thought we actually had way less. The effective tackles would have been far fewer. We did play the top side and were in the game up until the last quarter. No score at all in the last is a complete joke IMO. No matter who you play, and no matter what the conditions are.
Funny thing is that our more dangerous players of the past were Henderson, Menzel and Yarram. Yet in more recent games they are our biggest passengers. I really am not happy with this game tonight at all. Fair call that we did try to keep us in the contest and game for most of the game. However, Freo let us off the hook by turning the ball over too often. Their coach will be furious with their performance. If we bring what we did tonight against Hawthorn, we better expect a 100 point loss. They know how to crush sides.
There are a few positives, but I will need to see the replay to see what they were. Sure Kreuzer struggled against the bigger body Sandilands, but I still see him as being in our best 5. His second and third efforts always stand out. I just wish he could kick more goals for us. We lack the ability to put the pressure on the score board. >
