Freo V Swans saw yet another coaching masterclass from Longmuir! Every line was firing with Tabs clunking everything and the backline providing the best performance we’ve ever seen from the collective led by Ryan who has cemented his AA spot. Here's my fave moments:
From the moment the ball was bounced he was on! It was yet another brilliant performance to add to his incredible season that is building a solid case for rising star honours. It’s been amazing to watch his confidence and ability to execute grow these past few months 🙌
This is just one of Cox’s 5 contested marks, of which most were intercepts! His form over the past few weeks has been insane, he is growing into an A grade defender right in front of our eyes 😍
Mundy took a page from the Stephen Hill playbook and came off of the bench to impact this contest! The sidestep and bullet pass to Walters were just as impressive 🙏 #mundy4hundy #mundy5hundy #mundy6hundy
Cerras decision making and execution is becoming such an important part of not just his game but the teams game! His ability to select the best option and then nail it is outstanding, like this option here where he was able to open up a tight game 🙌
This kick was a ripper from Duman! He is quietly putting a great season together playing an important part of the defensive unit 👏
This contest from Cerra was impressive, it was good to see him in amongst it where he wants to be and to have the strength and drive to get the ball out 👊
What a superstar this guy is! We’ve heard for years about how hard he works behind the scenes, it makes me so happy that he is getting some reward for that effort with his form. He runs all day to hit every contest and either impact it or take an impressive grab like this one 👏
This guy is amazing, his composure and reliability is incredible! This play was a great example of that, he read it better than his opponent before beating them in the contest and then calmly getting the ball to Aish despite facing pressure 💪
Another player who is growing into an A grader very quickly is this guy, Andy was so important yet again against Sydney with 26 disposals at 81% and SEVEN tackles! Love watching his efforts, this sidestep in the contest was super 🙌
This was an outstanding intercept from Cox! Outside of the mark itself, his read of the play, his confidence to leave his opponent and the gut run to make up the significant space between him and the player execute this was wonderful 😍
How impressive was this spin out of trouble from Ryan! His composure and instinct is wonderful, pure football intelligence 🙌
This smother from Blakely was so good, and the follow up second effort to get the ball out was too! It’s clear to see how hard he is working for this team atm 👊
Loved this attack from Cerra, it’s a great sign too that he didn’t come off second best in a hard bump like this! 👊
The goal from Cerra was amazing, but how good is the tap from Darcy to get it to him! Ruck craft at its finest 👏
Wilson has been so impressive recently, there is nothing better than seeing him streaming out of the backline with confidence and he is delivering in spades ♠️
Crowden worked his ass off on sat night, he wasn’t in everything but his effort cannot be faulted! This contest shows that, this is not his job but he worked so hard up the ground to spoil the ball and it would’ve been a certain opposition goal if he didn’t #spleenrupturer 👊
This footwork from Ryan was so clever, instinctual football like this is amazing to see 💪
This was insane from Mundy! Seeing him stream out of the middle and hit a target i50 is truly a sight for sore eyes, don’t mind the don’t argue either 🤚😏
Hughes is another defender who is doing a lot right for very little credit! This mark was awesome, his read of the play couldn’t have been better 👏
If you had have told me that something we’d see a lot of this season is Cox’s agility then I’m not sure I’d have believed you but wow, what a strength of his game it is! Loved this moment here where he read the play to perfection and then used it to clear the ball 💪
This play was outstanding from Walters, the pickup and then the sidestep are a perfect display of his skill and talent 😍
This was Concas best game by far since moving to defence, he has played the lockdown defender role so well! On sat, he was able to keep a brilliant forwards role to minimal impact while getting a bit of the ball and impacting the game himself as well 👊
Another game, another phenomenal effort from Schultz! These efforts are momentum shifting and team lifting and I couldn’t love them more! 👊
I can’t believe I’m saying this, but Fyfe is flying under the radar right now! His impact hasn’t subsided at all, he is working so hard and he is playing very clean, fast and efficient football 💪
Fyfe’s strength is unbelievable here, he is like a concrete pillar that can’t be torn down! His ability to win the ball in these circumstances is incomparable to anyone else 👊
This kind of stuff is what makes you love players, when the game is over and they are still providing this kind of effort! Brayshaw gut running to effect this spoil was amazing to see, and his second efforts in the contest were brilliant too! 💪
Frederick played a great game on sat, his massive goal was one of the highlights for sure but this play caught my eye! Couldn’t have worked it any better 🤩
Loved this chain started by Henry that led to Schultz goal, it was quality ball movement that displayed the midfield’s connection and cohesion! Very exciting signs 😍
To show up and play the way they did after last week was an incredible display of resilience by this group! They are fast becoming a side with no passengers, it’s truly so special to watch the growth every week! It’s a really exciting time to be a Freo fan 💜 #foreverFreo
