Didn't ever think he'd amount to much despite his physical gifts and work ethic. And the fact he is a good, honest kid.

But he has turned the corner today. As good a half by a Saints tall forward that I've seen aside from Roo for 15 odd years.

Most importantly, he's turned the corner in his own mind. That can seemingly unlock a whole new level of player.

Well done Rhys.
Stanley still needs time to develop

Is this the "Fremantle-end-of-season-trip" match?

They call it - write your own ticket. If I remember correctly, it was about 50:1, but I didn't pay that much attention. Remarkably, the online TAB has us currently at $1.65!

There are just some games where you can do no wrong and the opposition can do nothing right. If only one of our GFs had been like that - for us.

Wasteful. We could have kicked ten that quarter.

Yes I know... but when you have the foot on the throat, demolish the opposition.

We need to keep going in the last. Need to have a four quarter game and give us some hope.

Been a looooong 3 months

Be honest, no one can say I picked this. Still worried I am going to wake up soon.


Except for the sanity nothing much has been lost.

I forgot how good fisher was. He and gwilt work very well together. Rhys is looking a million bucks. Savage excellent disposal. Rooney is a freak he has run his arse off.

I'm staggered

It's hard to remember a more unbelievable performance by a bottom side against a top side. We are not only in the game which is 1 in 50, we are completely decimating them,dismantling one of the flag favourites. My phone is lighting up from opposition supporting mates saying they haven't seen anything like it.

Oh well there go's pick 1 :lol:

I still got $1.48 ay half time - how can we be so discredited that a 40 point lead at half time still gives 3:2 odds!!!

Lazy $100.00 on!

Our current odds: $1.50. WTF? Easiest money you'll ever make surely? Can Freo kick 12 unanswered goals in the last to win?
