Yeah nah, winning stats is one thing, what you actually do when you've got the bloody ball is another. That doesn't get on the stat sheet unless theres's a goal beside it.
Yes, Freo did play more of a forward line this week. Against the stingiest defence in the comp, with tools ill equipped for the job. All NB did was show up how poorly Freo use the ball in the forward 50, regardless of how it gets there.
It's been happening for years, even with Pavlich distracting the best defender every week.
Today, Freo reached a new low of rabble and are on their way to becoming the Richmond of old.
