South Fremantle
Out: Thornton, Ma. Johnson
In: Foster/Head, Drum (If Avail.)

Mundy is also walking a fine line to be dropped.

**McManus still in as a final send-off game...then retirement**

Surely he can't possibly get many more games! If not for the the club, he should just retire for himself. The longer he continues playing the more people are going to turn against him and remember him as a hack who couldn't let go rather than a good past FFC player.
 
Unless it's McManus's send off game, he should be first dropped, with Foster coming in.

I'm prepared to give the rest a second chance, but if they continually under perform, they get dropped one by one - replaced by a new player.

I think all three of Mayne, Palmer and Ibbotson have probably done enough for the rest of the season to be picked, unless their form drops off.
 
Foster in for Macca is a certainty.
Head should be tried, in for Thornton.
Maybe Drum in for Bradley as well? We're too tall with Bradley, Sandi and Warnock.

I think North tend to play a very tall team don't they? We may be able to get away with it next week at least. I'd be a bit hesitant to drop Keplar for Warnock at this stage too, one plays like he wants to be there, the other seems to want to hold the club to ransom.
 
With no WAFL games this weekend it's hard to make selections. Head, Foster and ????? for Thornton, McManus and Mundy. Those three have to go so I don't care who the third inclusion is.
 
Mundy won't get dropped. I notice he had 22 touches, which puts him third behind Palmer and Michael Johnson. Not saying he played well, but we simply don't have the quality of players to come in at the moment.

The situation with McManus is beyond a joke now. I don't think there is a single Freo fan who thinks Macca deserves to be playing now. I am angry at the match committee for this. Macca can't help being shit these days - if they pick him, he'll 'play.'

Thornton and Peake are rubbish but they seem to get infinite lives. I suppose neither of them was especially bad this week.

Harvey and co must be 'aving a larf if they think Macca is best 22. :rolleyes:
 
Out:
McManus, Thorton

In:
Out of:
Head, Foster, Hinkley, O'Brian

Warnock needs to stay in for a few games to see if he can hack it.
McManus does not need to be in for a final game, He can walk around the ground at the end of the game....Harvey needs to set the bar higher and if your not playing well enough, your out, no matter how long you've been around. Make them desperate to hold there spots....

WTF?

Bell, Black AND Solomon?

No freakin way, Solomon is probably the only hard at it defender we have in the team, he constantly puts his body ont he line and we REALLY need it, let's face it when we have people lie mundy running around without someone to put some fear into theopposition they would havea field day.

As for Black, all he needs is some match fitness which wil come the more he plays in the team, and it has to bein this team not Souths becuase we can see that he tears it up when he goes ito soutjs so he'snot learning anything there anymore.

As for Bell, i'm not even going to dignify that with a response
 
Hopefully McManus retires this week...so I'm keeping him in for that honour. If doesn't announce retirement he can get dropped for Mark Johnson.


OUT: Mark Johnson (pending McManus poss departutre)
Thornton

IN: Murphy (to be played from goal square with Pav in midfield)
Drum

I'm guessing Dodd & Hayden will still be unavailable.

What about this for future home games to keep us interested?

v Roos - send off game for McManus
v Ess - send off game for Belly
v Melb - send off game for The Wiz
v Wet Toast - send off game for Black

Ah yes, how could we forget the MRP, it's been what? 1 week without hearing from them? They must have their pond of flesh.

I think I know the incident however, I saw Black tackle his opponent after he had disposed of the ball and did his slam him to the ground thing that he loves to do, the umpire probably didn't see it as there wasno free kick awarded but the MRP being meticulous as they are found it.

1 week:mad::thumbsdown:
 
mundy has to go ... his slow crawl has no place in AFL anymore!

even the commentators on sunday (who, my god, were the worse ive ever heard.... ever) said as mundy was going for the ball on the wing "wow it looks like mundy was a little slow out of the block!". all i could do is laugh cause - THATS AS FAST AS HE RUNS! :D

just give Ma J the assistant of the assistant of the assistant job already and get him off the ground so we can play another kid!

is there any AFL ready to play rookies that we could promote to the main list as a few spots are open with maybe more to come?

Really smart against the tallest team in the comp...

Besides Harvey mentioned last week and others on the radio etc. mentioned they were going to leave warnock in for a few games to prove himself, pending his performance against brisbane. Harvs praised his display after the game so you can almost guarantee he will stay. Which i think is a good thing indeed. Gives Sandilands more of a chance to rest in the forward line etc.

I expect these changes

Thornton, Black (Suspension), Mcmanus.........OUT

Foster, Head/Drum, Hinkley...........IN

All pending injury, suspension etc.

Have a feeling if Mcmanus is going to retire they will play him against essendon or something to increase hic chances of going out with a win
