I think Sylvia's fitness could still be an issue for a full game. But could work as a sub. Someone a while back also raised an interesting list of his games that you can find on fanfooty. His first pre-season game generally has been an absolute dud (handful of touches), then he takes 2-3 games and he's up to ~20+ touches a game. He's had the intra club, the WC game, and the Peel game ... maybe he is ready to go (at least as the sub).

I think he will be good to go too. Ross wouldn't send a squad of 25 over to Melb if he wasn't positive they could all play to the standard he expects. If Sylvia was not up to at least being the sub there would be no point in him being there. If Clarke was still recovering from injury he would also serve no purpose for being over there.

I see many positives in the squad of 25 it basically says to me Sylvia is ready to go and so is Clarke. They may not get a game this Friday but they are good to go.

If both are outside the 22 for the game I am puzzled as to who the other will be.
 
Seppo did the boys have a run this morning and if so did you get there?
No, the routine for Melbourne is a dip in the St Kilda sea baths/bay around 10am and thats it. No running or balls involved.

I was at work all day so didn't get a chance to do my part of observations over here!

Should have just made something up there and taken the piss Seppo. Poor form.

How do you figure Sylvia is an unknown? He has played 157 AFL games. If you want to know, you can watch them.
I meant as a Freo player, an unknown quality as of yet. At Melbourne it was a different story. Ross Lyon likes those that ascribe to the team ethos and hard work. Hence de Boer, Neale and Sutcliffe will be more likely to play. Sylvia still has to buy into that..
 
I love the way RTB is playing mind games with Buckley's head .
Takes 25 players and will wait till the last minute to spring the trap on who's playing .
Just rembering the bad old days when we only had 24 players to choose from and 3 of those were under done .

Damn I can't find that Archer 'ruse' clip on youtube, I was going to post it somewhere so the uninitiated could understand what the hell has been going on lately.

(But mainly I wanted to post it because Archer is so bloody funny)
