@Sivixio28 @flag_crows @maxlaughton They were 6 points clear, and they were 8 points clear of 4th.
If Freo win tomorrow they'll be 16 points clear of 4th.

[Purple Jesus @Musicalically]

@TheCarryOnAFL @flag_crows @PurpleHerring1 @maxlaughton Suns have 1/5 away games, Geelong 1/6.

[Purple Jesus @Musicalically]

@TheCarryOnAFL @flag_crows @PurpleHerring1 @maxlaughton And 2 of those teams are struggling to win away.

@flagswans2026 @PurpleHerring1 @flag_crows @maxlaughton Is it "peaking too early" if you're almost a lock for top 4 halfway through the season?

Different if you're leading but have other teams close behind.

[Purple Jesus @Musicalically]

@Jennings_Racing @Markedw Good, because this Freo side is strong.

[Purple Jesus @Musicalically]

@adrianbarich Tonight and last night.

[Purple Jesus @Musicalically]

@SaintMatt15 @rockek_ricky @Markedw 7 wins and you'll be ahead of us on the ladder as long as we don't win any more games.

Good luck 👍

@nicko_316 Once you've been wharfied, you can never be unwharfied.

[Purple Jesus @Musicalically]

@maxlaughton Still early, but we dare to dream of Pav cup.

[Purple Jesus @Musicalically]

@chookaaaaaa @maxlaughton That is why Carlton was just after our list manager.

[Purple Jesus @Musicalically]

@chookaaaaaa @maxlaughton Not Freo.

Our list is built on sweat.

No academy selections. No “Father-son’s”. Only 2 x top 5 picks in the National Draft, with one of them traded from another club.

Their drafting, recruiting and list build in recent seasons has been 🔥 and a key reason they will in the mix for their first 🏆 in the clubs history this season.

@Markedw Nice little buffer to have. Can't get complacent though.

[Purple Jesus @Musicalically]

@mr_chitafa @Markedw Haha, yep, both can be true.

[Purple Jesus @Musicalically]

The gap between 2nd and 3rd widens

(unless Sydney lose to the Saints)...

Catch us if you can 🏃‍♂️

[Purple Jesus @Musicalically]

@maxblake9and44 @WCAdams Looks about right to me.

[Purple Jesus @Musicalically]

@SaintMatt15 @BrianJArbuckle @Markedw Freo has never played in the VFL.

[Purple Jesus @Musicalically]

@SaintMatt15 @rockek_ricky @Markedw I'm sure that's what the other teams were saying about the Saints after 31 years of not winning a VFL trophy 😊. Then they still said it for 38 more years after that.

[Purple Jesus @Musicalically]

@SENWABreakfast @TAB_touch Ugh.

[Purple Jesus @Musicalically]

@SENWABreakfast @TAB_touch The Eagles should stop letting him rack up coaches votes to quell the narrative 😋

[Purple Jesus @Musicalically]

@EnvyAU_ @fantasynut_afl Do they never get homesick despite being in the most isolated city?

[Purple Jesus @Musicalically]

@EnvyAU_ @fantasynut_afl Why is Freo able to draw players back from the east easier than eastern states teams drawing players back from WA?
