It was a far cry from Flagmantle tonight as the Freo Dockers got a pantsing by the notoriously out of form Eagles in the Western Derby.
Scientists are analysing the data but it is very possible that we have all witnessed peak Fremantle. We spoke to a data analyst who told The Times,
“Any keen student of history would know that at their core, Fremantle are known for choking against the odds. For delivering performances that break hearts and generally Freo’ing up the joint like there is no tomorrow. That’s what we saw tonight in massive quantities”
From the first bounce, the West Coast Flagles looked like a team possessed by the spirit of winning. Executing clinical clearances and slotting goals as they arose.
Freo on the other hand looked like a team full of Clives at a Waterhouse convention. It was in stark contrast to the team that inspired an avalanche of tickets to Melbourne in September.
We spoke to a Flagmantle fan who said that this was the last time Freo would break his heart. Adding,
“I’m done. I am finally done. What Freo did to us today is inexcusable. Losing to the Eagles? Are you fkn serious? No. No. No. J-Lo’s head will roll for this and don’t even get me started on the umpiring”
Other analysts refute that peak Freo has been achieved. Claiming that there is still room to Freo yet. With one speculating,
“If Freo managed to finish below Eagles on the ladder this year, that would be peak Freo. That would be one worthy of the history books”
No doubt it would be.
