I think Ryan Crowley gave him a 'reality-check' today

Big time.

[TigerLand]

Crowley has taken some huge scalps this year. In all honesty no players had any impact on the game whatsoever, which is a huge win for Fremantle. We played 21 vs 21 today, because of the Crowley tag who touched the ball 10 times with 100% game time. Complete shut down role.

Freo are going no where with that list and gameplan, can't play shut down footy and have your tagger not getting possessions.

Not a panic loss but one of those ones you just brush off and move on. Wont be playing Freo again till next year so they can get stuffed.

Play them again in Round 21 in Perth. One of those games we need to get back in the second half of the year if we are to play finals. A must win.

Tucker il give you a tip. Dont expect much from them and they might deliver in one of these winnable games.

Im not even convinced we will beat the Suns in Cairns. We have an issue beating teams we should. Suns, Port Adelaide, Freo

It's becoming an awful habit losing to sides we should win.Last season as you mentioned and now this season the first game we are expected to win after a horror draw.
Club and players need to deal with the expectation and the carrying of that weight of expectation associated with success.
Let's see how we deal with this over the next week and take it from there. They have done to well and have rewarded the fans with too much good will so far this season. Let our footy do the talking against GWS and lets at least go 6-6 into the break with some positivity.
After Dreamtime at 3-5 to go 6-6 we would have taken it. For this week I am willing to take today as an blip on the radar and with some refocusing and restructuring we should be back on track.

Lids has made the AFL site's Team of the Week on a wing.

The question at the start of the year was if Lids could deliver moving full-time into the midfield. The answer now is YEP!

Lids is No.1 in the AFL for inside 50s with 68 and equal 8th in the whole comp. for most disposals (330).

Lids leads inside-50s

I always had questions over his inside work but as a outside midfielder he is one of the best in the game. I said earlier in the thread that when he first began playing he was our most damaging midfielder even at a very young age and therefor had to deal with the number one tagger. I also said that now with Cotch, Martin and Foley playing so well it made it hard to pick who to tag. Unfortunately for Lids, he is now the number one target as the opposition have realised they can't tag Cotchin regardless. Hope he has learnt how to shake the tag better than when he first began his career.

We are very lucky to have such a talent in our side

Lids takes over from the now injured Kade Simpson as the AFL's leading consecutive games holder (107 games straight). He hasn't missed a game since Round 17, 2007 [touchwood] and has played 164 games out of a possible 168 since making his AFL debut back in round 1, 2005.

Lids has pretty much put to bed any criticism prior to this year that he couldn't play midfield in the guts. Some of those bursts from the centre bounces last night including the one that he finished off with a 60m goal were sheer class  . Every part of his game has gone up to a new level this year - disposals (avg 28), marks, tackling, etc...
