@timjstewart Freo scored the next goal plus another point. Treacy's miss didn't matter.
They got that missed goal back. They got the margin to more than it would have been; the clock had advanced.
Dumb decisions from there on.
@AFLSC360 Missing then wasn't important. Stopping the Lions scoring next was the important part.
Missing a goal in that situation only matters if you don't score the next goal. They did.
@AFLSC360 Well, actually, it doesn't go down as an all-time great miss because it didn't change the result.
The next score was a point to Freo and the next score was a goal to Voss. So instead of maybe getting 6 pts from Treacy, they got 8 pts.
@BrentZack@superfooty Pedantic. He was wrapped and eventually got it out. Obviously determined to do so.
Could've kept it in. Taken a stoppage and time off the clock.
@mickgleeson Michael, seriously. That miss (bad at the time) made no difference. They kept control and got the next goal.
Same result, just a few mins later. After that was the problem.
Don't rewrite history to hang it on one bloke. From Voss's goal onward there were poor decisions aplenty
@mickgleeson Their defence was always the weakness, meaning Pearce was their most important player.
McDonald always looked vulnerable and having to rely on him so much was going to be a problem at some point.
Your bottom six players won't win you a GF but they can lose it for you.
@JamesPearceLFC@OliverKay 'We can do what we want'
Very much the entitlement around at the moment.
Football teams owned by nation states, business owners bigger and more influential than countries.
Not sure why the focus on this moment. Not good, obviously, but Freo scored the next goal.
It didn't cost them anything, they kept the ball in their forward line and eventually capitalised.
It's what happened next that was the problem.
With less than seven minutes to go in the final quarter, Fremantle’s Josh Treacy sprinted towards goal and looked certain to extend the Dockers’ lead. Enter Ryan Lester...

This is low, even by the standards of the UK Football policing unit, casually linking the Taylor report post Hillsborough and football tragedies to changes in the law on drinking at matches
Drinking in view of the pitch didn’t cause deaths or injuries - policing failures did
