Unofficial Preview Changes for Round 13 (21 June) v Hawthorn @ ES

[captcha]

6.25pm EST tonight. Have to put the bet on before the teams are named, because I reckon the odds will come in.

Only supporters will be putting money on wce anticipating a huge form turn around, but coming off such a long break between games and against the losing grand finalists, I don't think they'll be up for the fight

Darling is like Bruce Lee so he would be taking on half the Hawthorn team Fists of Fury style.

Can't we play Embley against only bottom four teams to get to that milestone if we really must? Not against Top 4 teams...

Embley is a big game player proven in over 240 games. If he stays injury free, builds some match fitness and form he's the type of player who puts us on an even footing with top four teams. Things the many players we have tried in his absence, have failed to do.

Oh don't worry, by losing grand finalists I thought you mean't they lost last week.

Seen it all now. Prey and hope mate because there is no evidence of Embley being anything but a free loader.

 

[Suma Magic]

Embley to kick the match winner. Twice.

If he plays, I'm interested in how McGinnity goes. Bit of tenacity would be useful.

See i was right he was injured and not dropped.

 

[the harry]

Embley is one player of 22, can we find something new to complain about?

When most agree we aren't going to be playing many games after August, getting a guy like him to 250 games isn't a hanging offence.

Apparently Isaac Smith didn't train today. Would be a little plus for us if he doesn't play, since he's got real leg speed and is the type of player who would tear us apart.

 

[ndot]

at least we don't have to worry about embley making a crucial, calamitous, humiliating, game changing mistake in a huge final this year...

Yeah he tore us up last time and with Rioli out also they will lack speed.

Beau has a solution, he just needs to talk to his mates on the rules committee

Or wear a hawthorn jumper and repeat Hodges' efforts last week...

I hope mcginnity gets a game and brings some toughness around the contest

shame sheps isn't playing though he's been getting more confidence and it was starting to show on the field

 

[QS]

Apparently we will win by 9.

McGinnity is a crab. Toughness is found in many WAFL level players. He lacks the disposal and decision making skills to do much offensively and defensively he lacks poise and is therefore dangerous for us in the back 50....

Effort, work rate and hardness are all well and good but hard working battlers is not what our team lacks. It's quality footballers.

Sheps per Woosh is seen as a key piece going forward. So why leave him out of a Friday night game against a really good team on the road? He'd learn way more playing than he'll learn in 5 games v poor sides. More selection folly. (Unless of course it's an injury related omission. )

I would much rather have mcginnity "crab" " hard working battler" in the forward 50 applying pressure or around stoppages than gaff, hill, lecras.

Don't think he can get a spot in the backline with the current availability of defenders, he usually plays mid in the wafl, so midfield rotation/defensive forward is more likely

A wise man once said that.
