Fucken embarrassing 

Yes, agree DG. The ressies beat EF only a couple of weeks ago, so to go down like that was very disappointing.

Surprised by that margin in all honesty.....though not the result, as the last 2 matches between the sides, has been by less than a goal, with Subi on the winning side.

But 80 pts is a huge turnaround by both clubs. Subi looked very disinterested and flat.....perhaps made EF look better than what they are. Big test v Cl next week, but like anything in life, you got to be in it to win it.

Big clean out needed imo BC. We don’t need half arsed weak minded players, no one does. This lack of mental toughness should not be tolerated. The leaders in that department for the best part of 20 years. I just can’t get my head around it

Saw the last quarter. Was a bit surprising. Not sure what the fault lay.  Kingsway might have some our players. On the other hand, at least the colts and reserves made the preliminary and the league did that last year. Can't be all bad. 

Ef have Bigger problems. Next week might be the last East fremantle game ever played. I sincerely hope not. 

Watched the last half of the Colts which was a really good game to watch despite the result, SD just had a bit more pace and poise in the end. The ressies was a disgrace to the club, too many just going through the motions, the game was done and dusted halfway through the second qtr and too many of the boys looked like they knew that and played accordingly. Apparently Wardman addressed the players the players at 3/4 time and tore them a new one. Golding gave his all, Big Duff in the ruck tried hard but is still very raw, not much else really. EF had Maguire and big Blakiston in the ruck so we were totally out gunned in that department, a familiar result for the club in that area.

The club must recruit well over the off season, it's all been said before but please get a quality big bodied experienced ruckman who can mentor our young talls, a key backman after the loss of Gus and Heal in the last 2 seasons, a key Forward to help out Borch and mayo given Sok has retired and another experienced mid to cover the loss of Kitch. You only need to look at Swans recruiting to see what a difference top shelf mids can make to a team. Have to live in hope that Hayden and Giro come back fit and firing and stay that way to bolster the other mids in Clark, the Hicks, Schoey (who will be better with a full pre-season which he missed tis season) Alone etc and Golding must come in, his form in the ressies has been terrific.

Blakiston did not play and Reuben McGuire only played his second game back after missing the second half of the season.

SS, Blakiston is eligible to play in the finals, but isn't due to a torn bicep mate.....young Wills was supporting RMcGuire in the ruck...

SD mids played every H&A game don't forget, that continuity can only be dreamed of. Sadly 2 dropped out at the wrong time, highlighting the depth wasnt there to replace them. Subi just need that same sort of luck with Schofield, Giro, Hayden and Clark in 2025.

Complete review required Subi.
You got beat by Perth in all 3 grades this year.
And that was just round 1.
Good luck with your recruiting.
lol

As a Perth supporter I am embarrassed to read this post. Seriously DF. What Subiaco did to us second time around at Leederville led to Peter German going off his nut, the players boycotting the player awards and German resigning. Colts lost too.
