Preview Changes for the Derby v Fremantle @ Optus Stadium 2/6/21 @ 2:40pm

[Carbine Chaos]

Nothing to get excited about for tomorrow’s game. Could at least have thrown us a debut or something.

Hope H Edwards goes well.

Why are we going in with a thinner midfield?

 

[Matera92]

We are going to get run off our feet.

Good thing we have one less midfield rotation.

we loose contests not run

 

[Bacchus]

We are going to have Jones and Langdon running around in the midfield. Haha. They might get 10 possessions between them.

with our outs I'd be very excited with a win

pretty obnoxious and sad you need something more than this

Lel. You haven’t even seen obnoxious yet champ. Check into the game thread at about half time tomorrow. x

 

[Winky]

Surely he would have more impact than Langdon

Couldn’t agree more. Langdon has a crack but skills are average and he is just too slow for a small forward

 

[Get_The_Gaff]

We have been Jekyll with our two aces in defense. Without them, no Hurn for leadership, and a weak, shallow midfield who can we beat?

Sure, we beat P.A., but that was Shuey led.

Agree shuey did boss PA

Have you seen freos defence it is way worse than ours .

This game is 50/50 .

Natanui won't get exposed around the ground like he normally dose with the freo fatty ruck and if our mids compete we win .

Edwards is basically a debut he can't remember his first game

that's the spirit
and yes to be fair to you there are a lot of embarrassing posts made on this board...not sure why I reacted to yours

It’s just frustration. We’re allowed to vent, even if it makes us look like geese now and then (or more often than not).

I very much hope we win tomorrow but I think the smart money is on Freo. I’m also looking forward to the likes of Winder, Williams and Edwards reinvigorating this side as this year (forgettable to this stage) continues.

The return of injured players will also help but these are largely the players who haven’t helped us reach great heights since the GF.

Well let’s hope they were just getting posts ready if required, rather than the receiving the inside word. I reckon it might be the latter though....

Fair chance, I wouldn't bank on going to the game if I had tickets

Not afraid of Matt Taberner by any chance? Lol

 

[Numero Uno]

yeah sure

oh you mean as a forward
then no

 

[Westend]

It will be interesting to see how many people go if they are allowed with the current situation

I reckon the news of Hurn not playing ...the chance of breaking the record will stop a lot of people...plus covid

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

That team is going to get murdered.

Pretty much. Hoping for Winder, Hutchings, Ainsworth and Williams maybe to make it vaguely competitive. But more likely we have more injuries.

 

[frenchconnection]

We are going to get run off our feet.

Good thing we have one less midfield rotation.

Yes that's a bit perplexing to say the least lol.

 

[The Passenger]

FFS Saw Hurn out. Thought he just didn't quite get up in time for the match, which was totally unexpected.

To find out he's actually re-injured himself. After the debacle with Shuey's hamstrings. This is getting Infuriating now.

Good chance he knows this is his final season - and so they are pushing the boundaries a little to help him to be the first Eagle to reach 300

 

[Altum Volantes]

I reckon we are in deep s**t here! - that backline is terrifying....but I’m still more worried about the midfield.

No use saying it on the mainboard because the Purples are anxious about any suggestion that we may be undermanned and ripe for the picking (as far as I can tell, they don’t like it when anyone applies expectations of success on their team), but far out - a win tomorrow would be an awesome effort.

 

[West Coast 06]

I am already in a bad mood in anticipation of a loss

 

[its_dave]

I can’t remember his first game either

calfs are a tricky one though. They can feel a 100%...then a rapid change of direction boom.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

This is tailor made for a St Kilda 2020-style win against all odds, anyone else getting that feeling?
