Yes well, I left with 7 minutes to go :-[ :-[ :-[
We decided it was best to beat the rabid Freo hordes given train is the only way in and the only way out.
Summation - slippery day given the earlier rain and bits of rain during the game (very little really),
Freo smashed us in Q1 then they fell asleep essentially.
The skill level - from both sides was simply disgraceful - missing targets from 20m away (under no pressure) consistently.
Hosptal hand passes, etc etc.
Fyfe was dynamite in Q1 and to a lesser extent Q2. Walters MIA (not sure if anyone from CFC can take credit for his performance)
Great job by SOJ.
Kreuzer was fantastic. Ditto Levi, Marchy and Jones.
Dow's kicking still extremely embarrassing. Laughable.
Kennedy and Setterfield did their bit.
SPS - good in patches. Still chooses....
Murph - didn't much notice him - but there was plenty of rugby scrum stuff all day....
Ed? Kept us in it.
McGovern - that miss early in the last shocking (where he played on on his left after marking 20m out).
All in all - they lost it more than we won it. Still, as they say. you can only beat the opposition on the day.
Final word - big confidence booster noting no Crippa, Big H, Charlie....
Finals, then 4 in a row!
