I can say without doubt that the umpire in the last few mins cost Freo the game, 1 goal the difference kelly of the cats gets caught, absolute plum and incorrect disposal too but ump calls play on and crowd booing loud, the ball was 60 when kelly was caught who knows perhaps a goal to equal it up for freo but the cats bring the ball up the other end and score a goal, all of a sudden 2 goals up and momentum crushed for freo...

game over!

Maybe it was a rough non-decision, but I thought the umpiring all day favored the Dockers, despite what those fans thought.

Oh well Freo will be happy, they got close enough to warrant a standing ovation from their crowd.

That club has no hope, ever.

nah he was caught fair and square, funny eh i thought the freo got the raw end of some obvious frees which shouldve gone their way...

how about mundy he is freos version of mcmahon bloody soft as and always away from the contest trying to get easy kicks...

Nah I agree, was an incorrect decision.

Yeah perception is a funny thing, I think Freo got all the 50/50's except for that one.

Mundy is an average player, always has been. Soft is one way to describe him.
 
Cats obviously in a bit of a lull. Aints the same. Hard to keep winning.

Both will be setting themselves for their clash in a fortnight.

I'd suggest we were even a chance against St Kilda next week if we were any good or really interested in winning, but we're neither.

spin out, he has come on big time always had the skill but now has added hardness to his game...

How did we get pic 8 so wrong, theres enough talent in that lot to pic 1 decent player, have a look at the below table of 2005 draft, spot out the 2 teams whos pics havent really gone anywhere...

pic 7 Essendon Patrick Ryder Essendon 64
pic 8 Richmond Jarrad Oakley-Nicholls Richmond 12
pic 9 Brisbane Mitchell Clark Brisbane 34
pic 10 Fremantle Marcus Drum Fremantle 18
pic 11 Western Bulldogs Shaun Higgins Western Bulldogs 42
pic 12 Melbourne Nathan Jones Melbourne 61
pic 13 West Coast Shannon Hurn West Coast 48
pic 14 Hawthorn Grant Birchall Hawthorn 74
pic 15 Geelong Travis Varcoe Geelong 46
 
Just proves Freo are the Interstate Richmond.....

Of all the names two are not players.

When I see Higgins on that list I cry. :'(

Even Nathan Jones, Shannon Hurn or Varcoe would have been okay.

Nope, we take JON.

Ouch.

At the inaugural Greg Miller Night, Mr Miller had everyone hypnotised in the room telling them what an X-factor JON is and on the home front is a really great kid, 60 mouths wide open without a blink listening to Miller sell JON. Miller looks at Frank, Frank looks at Miller, and the hammer falls. 8)

so much for highly paid recruiters, GPB in all seriousness JON is more pic 60 or 70 how on earth he went inside the top 10 is beyond comprehension.

I believe it ive been to club functions and u do listen intently to the point u almost get mismerised on whats being said...

Also when they chose JON wallace was spruiking him up on TV saying lids has someone threatening his fastest title mantle at punt road.

For the record lids won the big sprint and JON came in 2nd, bling didnt race in the 100 meter sprint in that pre season run off.

Maybe so,nevertheless it was one of the worst non decisions I've ever seen
