Shame on Blakley however they're sticking by their morals...Emergency for a couple of weeks and then have a chance at selection. Blakley needs to keep at it.

Looking forward to weller.....not looking forward to Weller being sub

But, but Ross don't play yoof :confused:

On a serious note, congrats to Weller, has clearly earned his place. Exciting times. Hope he takes the opportunity with both hands and earns himself a few games from here. :D:thumbsu:
 
Weller could be a very handy sub just like Sutty was a couple of years ago.

This kid has talent in spades. I hope people don't get to critical of him if he doesn't meet their expectations from game 1.

Having said all that. Congrats and hope he has a cracking game.

lol as long as he doesn't get caught holding the ball and picks up a couple of disposals he will be a upgrade on Suban/MDB.

If he is the sub, almost a waste of time as he will find it hard to work into game in 1 qtr.

Also didn't read previous posts but Pearce was omitted due to form?? Was that his form prior to his shoulder tweak or afterwards?

He and Mzungu tagging on and off quicker than a St Kinda tram on a Friday night.
 
Alex has really held his own back in defense but I'm really excited to see him up forward. He seems like a real go-getter type and backs himself so would love to see him bag 1-2 goals
 
Have no choice but to assume Alex Pearce will play forward. We're completely starved up there otherwise.

Yeah, unless we're going in with a smaller (less skillful) Forward line. Alex played a game Forward this year in the WAFL but peel were playing like poo and needed him back, down back i think. As i recall A Pearce didn't do that well in the forward line that day however i think the supply was horrible. Also, A Pearce used to play in the Forward line before coming to Freo so maybe he'll have just as good output as Tabaner?

Agree.. Are we too tall at the back now Dawsons back in?

My issue is Pav and Walters are our only key forwards at present, we've got no one else. Mayne doesn't count, he adds defensive forward pressure and does a variety of stuff on and off the ball but if he was a key forward he'd have been dropped games ago. Griffin can only make cameos as well.

Really worried about hitting between the big sticks at the moment
moment.

It would have been prior to the shoulder tweak. Dropped some easy marks (one crucial sitter in defense) and didn't really do much.
 
pearce to lachie...pierce to lachie...pierce to....s**t now I;m confused! which pierce to who..lachie to which lachie...bts head would explode! best of luck to yet another young man at the start of his afl career.
 
Would much rather see Weller start. Sitting on the bench for 3 and a half quarters gaining nerves would be mind racking.

Let the kid start and show us what he's got
