The Moment: Rnd 16, 2023 vs Fremantle

[GVGjr]

The moment, the best, most courageous moment that caught your eye in tonight's game against North. Was it the moment that told you 'we've got this' or 'we lost this one right here'? Or was it the moment that you went 'wow....that is crazy courage'

Or was it a collection of moments that you thought 'oh dear that's sure to produce a flood of WOOF melts on par with GG's post GF loss..

[Bulldog Joe]

Hope it is not an omen moment
Just had issues with tickets and went to AFL service centre to sort out.
Spoke to Simon Atkins who was also sorting tickets.
His daughter (I assume) was decked out in a Freo jumper.
I did tell him that was unacceptable

[bulldogtragic]

Liam Henry under any pressure. Might be racking up stats, but making costly mistakes with pressure and perceived pressure on himself.

[chef]

Marra with the moment?

[bulldogtragic]

West coming on.

[GVGjr]

Marta's marking had to be the highlight
Williams goal was all class and Macrae goal was the sealer.
I'll go with Marras marking

This for me too, good summary.

Yeah but I'm gonna work out who this Hermano is.

[Yankee Hotel Foxtrot]

I thought West's moments were telling as well.

[Raels_d]

Riley West coming on in the 4th. Sparked the team and the supporters

Lobb's big 60 metre plus kick got us on a role.

Lobb's big 60 metre plus kick got us on a role.

Same for me BAD. The whole crowd seem to also lift when he kicked that one.
Then Lobbs follow up ruckwork for the next few centre clearances.

[jazzadogs]

After Darcy kicked a goal to put them in front, we got the clearance forward and Lobb got a 50/50 free kick which he finished well.

Sean Darcy and Tim English both then went off for the 'key' five minutes where the game turned. Lobb had Treacy's measure and we got four more goals, almost all from centre clearances.

Found it strange that Jackson wasn’t in the ruck.. really strange.

[chef]

Probably the Dodgy Ryan free that Lobb goaled from. Turned the momentum completely back in our favour

You didn't think that was a free?

I thought it was completely unrealistic that attempt, he wouldn't mark that if he had 1000 tries and took Lobb out the contest.

I was surprised by the leeway they give holding the ball now.
Saw a few 540s and 720s!

[Grantysghost]

Mines a period of moment-um.

After Freo hit the lead through Darcy and we got two centre free kicks and went on a roll.

I'm claiming Whitten Oval training for the win.

Not sure if anyone went on the ground after the game.
I walked across it, made a point of testing the firmness.... Man it's hard.

He got his hand to the ball so it wasnt unrealistic, he just didnt mark it. The ump just guessed our way.

Hmm. Well it's not an unrealistic attempt to touch the ball it's to mark it :)

At the game it looked absolutely absurd.

Hear your point though. There were a few decisions at crucial times we got in dangerous positions.

Freo got a bit sloppy.

Edit : I checked the rule 18.5e and it's an unrealistic attempt to CONTEST or SPOIL a mark which interferes with an opposition player.
