You can’t do that! Second career game in an elimination final and Jye was as cool as a Busselton cucumber. Ryan Crowley couldn’t have rattled him! Time to Restump Podcast the unfathomable Freo victory.All we can say is, how? You just can’t do that! 41 points down with a tick over a half of footy to play and we somehow found a way with a team possessing barely a single final of experience between them. We averaged around 68 points per game for our last 6 games and we had to find 41 points in a just over a half of footy to just draw level, without the dogs kicking a single score! And we had to do that without our best forward and a replacement playing just his second career game. And we did! We somehow orchestrated a 54-point turn turnaround…. what kind of purple sorcery is that! How sweet was it to see Sonny Walters back to his former typical big game best? However, he couldn’t do what he did if a couple of young ridiculously talented hard nuts didn’t do what they did. Andy Brayshaw and Caleb Serong somehow went to another level, a level, given their age and experience, that should almost be classed as unfair to the Dogs!When you look at those two guys in particular, you have to say Phar Lap suddenly has a couple of challengers for the world record size of hearts! If that win and all it represents doesn’t overly satisfy the harshest Freo task marker, then give the sport away because your unrealistic and unfair expectations will never be met. We’ve been starved of this feeling, we live for this, we’re doing it for Dave and for Nat, we’re allowed to dream, live in hope and we say why not us? But whatever unfolds and however next week results, an elimination final victory with such a young inexperienced team put the icing on a successful season’s cake. Let’s get into the game and relive the extreme emotional rollercoaster of Saturday night. We’re still running on adrenalin so we’ll aim for composure but not getting carried away reminiscing and dissecting the inconceivable purple performance.... we cannot guarantee. So, if you’re still buzzing…. Join us for this 60 minutes and come along for the recap before we look towards the ride to the G. Send us a textSupport the show
