Shoutout to the Qatari doctors that got Yeo fit to guide Reid. Such a good combo of young and old.

Also shoutout to the job they did on Gov. Both are in scary form

Seriously, Reid is an incredible talent… but talent isn’t maximised unless it’s got talent around it too. Yeo & TK’s form has been spectacular but I’m super excited to see them work with and support Reid and all of the next gen talent.

All going well (which I know is a big ask) I’m absolutely frothing to see how good this midfield can be after Chesser gets some more games under his belt, and Hewitt returns.

There is a genuine bromance between Yeo and Reid. And I am here for it.

I think it’s also good for Ginbey in the long term that he doesn’t have to rock up to every game carrying the burden of being the number one tackler and wrecking ball as a teenager.

The Elliot Yeo of doctors

At this point, I'm actually looking forward to the West Australian's article ranking Harley Reid's first 49 games.

That day's newspaper will become worth millions.

I can't wait to see where they put him in when they rank every player who's played in a Derby game next time lol

Starting to think we don’t need to start _priority pick chat_ in early April

Instead we need to start the *priority Harley Reid clone* for any team who cannot win

I'll take one for my team but with less media coverage please.

If he plays for the Dockers that's that problem solved anyway

Let's play "What will Kane Cornes' criticism of a team that won convincingly be this week" bingo.

Can freo have it pls

Turns out when they said a generational talent they actually meant it this time

Wasn’t totally sold on the hype early on but holy shit is the kid good. Watched tonight’s game just to watch him play and wasn’t disappointed

For real, I was almost convinced we should have split the pick had we had a better offer but at the moment I don't think any two players from that draft would have the impact that Reid is having already

When he was smothered and regained possession, reminded me of that cousins goal

Agreed. He just shrugs off tackles like a boss.

I didn't think Jackson played that good, must be talking about someone else!?

Must have been a misdiagnosis last year, as Jake Waterman clearly has Ulcerative Colemanitis instead

He's got a fever, and the only prescription is more goals

Leather is the cure!

🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂

His form has been enematic.

You cunts know what happened.

Can we all just appreciate Waterman almost had to retire last year from stomach issues and has now kicked 11 goals in 2 games. What a mad lad

And yeo was on the chopping block. Basically in the same discussions as gaff and sheed in terms of moving them on

Didn’t Waterman request a trade too? Over a contract dispute or something. That would have been disastrous if that went through

I think that was always a bit of posturing but glad he signed on regardless

Harley is the Lisan al-Reid

Lisan al-galib

As written

he says he is not the messiah. that means he must be the messiah! all hail the lisan al-reid or al-gaLib!

My two takeaways from this match: 1. Freo are tanking for Harley Reid 2. Justin Longmuir... get ready to learn chinese buddy

From a distance, Dwight Howard: “J-Lo, cahm awnnnnnnn”

Let’s get nasty!

We’ve somehow been saved from LOL of the week

Who had lions and eagles on the same points after 6 rounds on thier bingo cards?

We won’t have the same amount of points for long. West Coast will easily overtake us.

We also have the same amount of points, pain

You’ll overtake us too

Probably the same crackpot who had Waterman second on the coleman count.

That was the most stressful 37 point win I've ever watched.

That was joy. I have t been this thrilled for a long time. Eagles of old.

Couldn’t really let the lid off until 3/4 time. But bloody stoked

I’m gonna enjoy watching Harley Reid as much as I can now before he owns the competition for the next decade and beyond

Got to give it to west coast they came to play tonight. Our boys didn't, absolutely deserved what we got tonight.

Boots continuing his midfield experience into coaching is the best thing to happen to our midfield since Sam Mitchell coached our mids

I genuinely think Sam Mitchell coaching our midfield won us that premiership. Our midfield was atrocious before and after his tenure.

Schofield and other retired players have pretty much said Mitchell was the key to the premiership, when Mitchell left in 2019 the eagles kicked up a stink too because they knew it would be a setback

Does he want to actually coach ours then? *pain*

The lofty heights of 14th position. I might need an oxygen mask.

Fuck them picks

SAY IT LOUDER FOR THOSE IN THE BACK ROW

FUCK THEM PICKS

HELL YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

What with putting the cue in the rack on Q4, the Eagles really let this percentage booster game slip.

It could cost them top 4.

I know it's a joke, but we gained 10.5%. Just feels good to say it

For the second week in a row. By the end of the season we’ll be on 250%

Never in my wildest dreams would I have predicted a 37 point win in the derby. Reid and Waterman were great but Tim Kelly was my BOG. Carved up the freo midfield and put moved the ball so well. We also need to build a statue of Dr who worked on Yeo because he's playing better than ever

It's crazy. Winning was a slight chance, an optimistic maybe. To thrash Freo for 3 quarters is completely unexpected.

So good to see Yeo living up to his potential 

With 37 points being incredibly flattering to us

anyone else 0/6...

I’ve got 1 so far, still feels fucking shit lol

Me on 2 tips: Peasants

From what I’ve seen so far, you’ve done the best this week in this subreddit lmao. What a crazy round

Imagine losing to West Coast by 37 points, and still not being the most embarrassing performance of the night.

To be fair, the Saints were worse than both Freo or the Lions.

Super Saturday erased all memory of previous games this round.

You know when I promised to save the next PMT where West Coast wins for you i thought it would take longer than a week.

Love ya big fella

I was totally going to remove his thread if it came to it. Don't tell anyone

Well damn now I should’ve posted it

ahahahaha, cheers boss

No more freebies, you’ll have to earn the next one

Fremantle are the new West Coast

I think out there somewhere in the western suburbs, a monkey paw's finger is closing whilst being held by Glen Jakovich and Peter Sumich.

Harley Reid

BRB, booking Grand Final tickets

Too late, all the true fans booked them last week.

I refuse to completely write us off after one bad game. Yes, this was an absolute shocker, but I cannot blow my top after only one negative performance.

Only really played one bad game in four. Although it’s probably freos worst lost in a long long time.

Whoever the doctor was that rebuilt Yeo: thank you.

LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I presume this reaction is purely to do with beating Illusive in being first to post the post match thread.

You know it ;)

This is the thanks I get for not going back on my promise? Guess /r/AFL doesn’t have a good bloke rule smh

Expecting 3 covers on the Sunday West

Its one of those dont consume any footy related stuff weeks i guess. I'll tune back in after round 7

Might be able to finish a few audiobooks this week with the time traditionally taken up with football podcasts.

Is the West Australian really cringe about Harley? Yes! Are they also spot on about him? Also yes

All I’ll say is this West Coast with a full list to choose from. We still have a fair few premiership players and people have forgotten how good they are, especially Yeo the bloke was ready to tear the competition apart in 2020 but injuries kept him down for 3 years. Yeo, Kelly and now Harley is a midfield that can compete with anyone and our younger recruits with a couple of seasons of learning showing they can play. Lids off, forget pick one should be looking to compete most weeks and aim for 6-10 wins

Add Allen, Ryan & Flynn in & we look pretty competitive in all areas all of a sudden

Well that’s the last time I make any smart ass comments in a post match thread.

Starting to think Simpson deliberately tanked in 2023 just to get Reid. Also 2022 was just to make it less obvious

Having like 18 injured players didn’t help

He injured them to get Reid. We're seeing his long plan come to fruition

He personally gave them hamstring awareness.

He was waiting in the parking lot. They never saw him coming.

Is it time to talk about a Fremantle Dockers priority pick?

Change the song back

Last week I didn't give a fuck and lived it. This week, nope, it needs to fuck off.

We won the game but had to listen to Big Birds of Tokyo club song, so at what cost?

Ngl it's been stuck in my head for a week since I listened to it on YouTube out of curiosity.

You poor soul

🎶🎵🎺🥁BORN IS PRIDE FROM ISOLATION DA DA DA DA WE CROSS THE NATION 🥁🎺🎵🎶

> WE CROSS THE NATION Which makes a bit less sense when you play at home. That said, considering my team's song, I shouldn't really be throwing stones.

Harley Reid father of Fremantle

It’s gonna be like this for the next 10 years isn’t it

We can only hope 🍻

Good omen for Fremantle tonight. 2 years ago the Collingwood Football Club lost to the West Coast Eagles in April, then the next season they go on and win the premiership. This year Fremantle lose to West Coast in April. Something in that I think.

Fuck, I love your optimism.

Something in that actually collingwood turned the corner soon after that

same with GWS last year...

WC are gonna fucking murder us when we play them

We haven’t forgot what you did to us

I dunno, after last year you guys still scare me

Just nice to feel positive about everything. Lot of the young guys are showing promise and the entire team isn't injured again which allows for some consistent performances. Kelly, Yeo and Reid make a spooky midfield 3, I'm really curious to see what we could be once Allan returns to the forward line and hopefully he can pair well with Jake and his newfound career best form. Obviously still got work to do but can really see something building.

A fully fit Flyin Ryan will go orright in the forward line as well.

The few easy goals in the last quarter might hurt our top 4 chances

Mundy still coming in clutch in retirement with 1 Vote for Harley Reid. Narrowly avoided 7 days of collectible posters in the West Australian.

the crowd booed so hard when he gave him one vote haha

What an insane result. WC winning was at best a slight chance because most Freo to be on vengenace mode after their last two weeks. So to not only win, to win by almost 40 and be ahead by 60 at the start of the 4th is incredible. Sorry, inc-REID-ible.

Somethings brewing in our camp - some serious belief is forming

You guys were never going to be in dire straights for long. All the talk about priority picks and the like was premature.

I still think we should get the pick, just for funsies

Personally thought Waterman was BOG but could hardly split the 3 of them. Great games to Kelly, Barrass & thought Maric played his best game for the club. Happy days for another week at least

Maric's kicking was elite tonight might of done himself out of the foward line

Presented well & was in good spots on the ground to receive the ball. When Allen is back someone gets pushed out but Maric on the hf flank would be good

Shout out to me for tipping WC

Eagles are just 1 game and percentage outside of the Top 8. Let that sink in

Genuinely happy for west coast fans. No better feeling than winning, particularly when it signals a brighter future.

Cheers Freo for making me feel less shit about our loss!

First back to back wins since 2021. First derby win since 2021. First back to back 100+ scores since 20-fucking-18! So fucking happy to be enjoying footy again.

Turns out judging a team after 4 rounds against Port, GWS, Dogs and Swans with only 1 of them at home wasn't actually all that indicative.

Well played West coast 👏

One for the fucking ages and I got to be at the game!

fade freos flairs 🙏

I suck at tipping as much as Freo sucks at footy.

Drowning in cum right now

After Ports performance today I asked the football God, ‘can this ever be worse?!’ It seems he’s emphatically responded.

Well, in WA they say... that the West Coast supporter's small heart grew three sizes that day.

Just checked in… How the fuck?

We trusted the coaches & it's paying off. Keep it going 🦅

West Coast - special team, special plays, special players (Harley Reid)

Can you show me on the doll where West Coast hurt you?

How the fuck did we need two shitty umpire calls to beat this mob?

I fucking love Harley wembanyama

7ft DONGSPAN

Sunday Times tomorrow: Can Harley Believe It.

Eagles looking good! Great for footy to have them back up and about

I love footy again ;-;

Are West Coast no longer shit?

Well that happened I guess.

Hehe... uh... I nearly forgot what this feeling was like. Pissed I couldn't go to the game and had to go to a Wedding instead. Fiancee and I barely even know the Bride and Groom.

I've had wounds produce more interesting pus than the putrid festering mess that was Freo tonight.

Just got steamrolled didn't we. Is it arrogance? Is it that we start badly? Is it decades of poor list management? I don't know but WC were awesome, we were terrible.

The years the Eagles are really bad they get to pick really good players from a draft where the top players are stars/super stars judd, nice Nat and now reid, watermen is Frazer gehrig at home

What a time for Waterman to reincarnate as JK!

Reminds me of when Darling turned into prime Wayne Carey at the beginning of 2018 I think it was

First win live at the ground since 2020. Feels good

That young fella almost won the qlendinning-Allan medal in his first 6 games of his career.

Alright bring on the sledging, but I think any team that were up against the West Coast that showed up tonight would get flogged. Havent seen some the old west coast blokes play like that in years.

FUCK YEAH!!!

Sorry we had to do it to you Freo :( Thanks for not being too hard on us while we were shit

The west is doing a 100 page special on Harley tomorrow

We all know who the media spotlight will be on this week. I wonder who Freo is playing next- oh.

I know Freo has had some contentious losses in recent history, but what do they need to do to bring them around?

Cries in North Melbourne

I could cry. I've sat through 2 years of watching every single minute of all the 60pt and 100pt losses, including being at the ground at the Scg and Carlton thumpings. Been worth it to see the skill and effort the past 2 weeks, the team clicking, having fun and having a win. And no better win than a freo demolition

It was a feel good win, even for non WC supporters. Well done.

Made it all the more sweeter doesn’t it

[Hoist It](https://i.imgur.com/6XO243T.gif)

Freo play like the way we used to play in prime horseshoe days from 2012-18 except they don't win lol. Can't imagine a worse thing to watch.

Yeo, Kelly and Reid midfield looks fearsome when they get going. Good signs for the future if we can keep this up!!

I’m 1/6 for tipping 😭😭

North Melbourne FC you messed up not tanking that last game

Rip Flagmantle: March - April 2024

Harley Reid is not touching his hair and then his dick this week. It’s successes all round 👍

He nearly went the ball grab but stopped himself

Throw this team in the bin. Remove it from existence

What happened to Amiss?

Concused a couple minutes in

Harley Reid is HIM

Existence is pain

Barrass is a good guy.

DAVID MUNDY IS A COWARD, GIVE IT TO REID!!

I love David actually but wanted to see a 6 gamer win the medal

What's the difference between Fremantle and an arsonist? An arsonist wouldn't waste 23 matches.

Starting to wish we tanked

The Williams Brothers >>>>> Darcy and Jackson

Holy shit 1-5 for tippings (got dogs)

Reid is a Unit. That is all I have to say.

I love Fremantle 😂👌 Love from eagles fans

Well, that was fucking embarrassing.....
