My guess is, 3 of those notable absentees will never play for us again.

 

[Billy Not Really]

You don't need Cunnington. This team is completely fine, who gives a * if we lose. I just wanna see how Tom Campbell fares as the ruck, if the defence is better and if we can actually get it forward this time with more utilizing Polec. Plus you get to see Tarryn, LDU, and Bailey Scott, Larkey and McKay have another crack at it.

 

[Waynesworld]

Disappointing no Watson. Garner must still be injured, wonder what is up with Cunnington.

Daw Garner Jacobs?

Oh now that's not fair........

Walker will be eyeing Wright's spot in time.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Needs more Wilkinson and Watson

Also Should have kept Murphy in over Pittard/Wright

 

[shimaburnsgrieg]

Good to see Sammy Wright back - the back six needs more class and ball use - Sam will help in that regard.

 

[Bigeasy]

Where's Watson? Not injured and starred in the intra. I don't get it, actually I'm pretty pissed off.

 

[Snake_Baker]

Okay..................where's Cunners?

Are the snapper biting?

He’s either injured or we are foxing

 

[Pykie]

He’s either injured or we are foxing

You don't fox with absolutely no match practice fro a month before Rnd 1.

He played the intra & the Geelong game.

He must of picked something up in the Geelong game imo.

 

[Handsome.B.Wonderful]

He’s either injured or we are foxing

Corked thigh.

2 weeks

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Jmac injured, when did that happen?

 

[the big lebowski]

Chance of Hall being a late out and Hayden coming in?

 

[Rod Stroker]

Didn't Campbell get a week for his tackle against the Saints ruck which caused concussion?
Now he's starting ruck?

 

[Snake_Baker]

Jmac injured, when did that happen?

Leather poisoning

 

[Billy Not Really]

Chance of Hall being a late out and Hayden coming in?

Very low.

 

[Rod Stroker]

JMac injured sucks. Another defender. Say what you want about him, but he's a good general down there, and has decent skills. Will be missed. Hopefully just for this week.

No doubt Goldy has been rested due to Campbell's suspension.

This has got to be one of the worst lead-ins to a round 1 I can recall.

Our talls have been decimated to the degree that we have to put Goldy on ice as we have no ruck alternative for round 1 otherwise (a one-handed Durdin?). We could potentially have a 1-gamer (BMac) and 2-gamer (Larkey) holding down the key defensive posts with our 2018 starting combination all missing if Taz doesn't get up.

Our 2 key forwards, BBB and Wood are both underdone, as is JZ.

Our match winners BJ and Garner are MIA and now our bulls, Cunners and Jed, are going into round 1 without a JLT hitout under their belts.

The only bright lights have been the way the young guns have impressed and Maj's remarkable recovery.

Murphy's Law would suggest that we will probably beat Freo after years of going into round 1 brimming with confidence and losing.

Will just enjoy watching TT, Scotty, and LDU strut their stuff against Port. And head to Freo with no expectations.

Pressure makes a diamond, and our younger, fitter and healthier side of the team that is our future might be able to handle whats thrown at 'em and surprise us.
