Preview Changes West Coast vs St Kilda - Rd 19, 2021

[RookiePick]

Snake in should make for a feisty game day thread at least

 

[FKASC]

I wonder if Petch needs to put some more focus on building up his leg strength in the gym to eradicate these numerous hammy injuries. I remember when Cyril kept blowing out his hammies earlier in his career he mentioned that he spent a lot of time working on his legs and it seems like it paid off.

Needs to build up core, hip and lower back strength. He's put on weight but his hamstrings and basically doing all the sprinting work. Strengthening the surrounding muscles and core will take a lot of that stress away from his hammies.

 

[just ask!!!]

Jesus, Petruccelle injured again. We just can't get any continuity this season

Certainly wouldn’t be helping his cause . Great game last week but did say along with Cripps need to do it against top 8 sides and we won’t get to see unfortunately , hope he’s back on park soon

 

[06Premiers]

Petruccelle completing his usual tradition of playing well and then getting injured

And WCE continuing their tradition of injuries being revealed post-SJOGHCIU

 

[ep2018]

Hutchings going down early in that infamous game vs Richmond in 2019 was a big reason they overran us after quarter time. I can't believe we're playing him.

But I thought he had been a full time professional for how many years? Not looking good.

 

[THE A5]

Love Jakey and was stiff not to be picked but we are genuinely too tall this week. Hutch selection is so yuck too

We hate losing

 

[Ok Boomer]

Ugh.

I suppose snake has earned his spot based on last week and having another look at XON isn’t a bad thing either.

 

[Jupes]

hutch and no brander?

 

[Cuzz09]

Jake to kick a Michelle Pfeiffer and cement his spot for years to come.

[wce4premiership]

Only surprise there is not bringing Brander in, but with the given injuries I can't really complain. These teams with multiple injuries were playing better than the team with all the "good" players on the park.

Didn’t Cyril have some dodge with his running gait?

 

[Karim Abdul Yeo]

Wow what the hell is it with Petch constantly getting injured after one good game? Talk about injury prone.

Perhaps his running technique?? Speedy Gonzales is too fast for his own good. He probably doesn't know his limitation or his body well enough. Ig he is getting this many injuries this young imagine how much more when he is over 26??

 

[Karim Abdul Yeo]

Hutch?? really?? LOL poor old simmo he looks lost. resign, please. That is a terrible inclusion. I don't care If hutchy had 60 touches in WAFL. Terrible.

Watching last weeks WAFL game twice, Hutch was the clear best and could not be ignored.. Of the others only Witherden showed real AFL class. Brander was good at times but had problems close in under pressure. XON was only adequate at WAFL level and the Snake was soft when it counder and racked up soft uncontested dosposals in defence for much of the time. When the contest in decision he fell apart.

We will need all to be at 100% to win.

Of concern is the fitness of Allen and how much of the load otrhers will have to take up. We need JD back in form desperately.

Maybe you should watch a third time? Hutch didn’t play, he travelled to Adelaide.

Not really any other forwards available to replace Petch. Winder’s still coming back from injury and barely got near it against Subi.

Coaches always resign over one particular selection of one player that people on the internet don’t like. Happens all the time.

Pretty sure that’s what caused Tom Hafey to leave Sydney.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

I thought the Subi boy was best on ground anyway.

 

[GlennTwenty]

Snake is 6cm taller than Petruccelle but … JK is 6cm shorter than Williams. So… it’s all good

I’m trying to be hopeful about Hutch but in truth I’m very worried he won’t be up to AFL pace anymore.

And arse… I agree with you. His hammys are probably taking a lot of the load because surrounding areas upstream and downstream are out of puff or something not quite right.

I’m hoping hutch can get through this game. Don’t want to be a rotation down in the 2nd qtr because he’s beoken
