Petruccelle has a career average of two tackles a game so is unlikely to replace Owies' role. Not that Owies played his role vs Hawthorn.

I like Petruccelle but he's a nothing player at WC. Has pace to burn and is a reasonable kick, could be something in the right system but not here. Way too many low possession games where he doesn't impact the scoreboard.

He's done bugger all

I'm definitely not going in to bat for Petruccelle, but he kicked 2 goals on the weekend. Players have been promoted for less.

Personally, I think he's a list-clogger that will be delisted by the end of the year. But I'm surprised that he doesn't seem to have any supporters anymore
 
In: Kelly; Shanahan
Out: Owies (to be frank, will most likely be Long); Archer Reid (spell in the WAFL)

Purely to give exposure to Shanahan where Archer has struggled just a little bit the last two games to really impact. Again, exposing a younger player where May will go to Waterman and Lever is injured, gives Shanahan a chance at the highest level.

There are too many list cloggers to list now. Owies, Allen, Petrucelle and Kelly just to start with.
 
Petty to kick 6 or 7 this week probably

who plays on Pickett? Geez he could just do what he wants I reckon, too fast and skilled for our backs.

Hough probably goes back to him if he gets off the leash

Hot take but Harley and Hewett don't get in to the game as much if Hough isn't in the midfield. If we go back to putting Hough in the backline instead of exploring his ability in the midfield, then we are just circling the drain.

I'd rather take a longer term view and keep investing in exploring Hough in the midfield even if it costs us some goals.

Was at the game and Petch did not do anywhere near enough to warrant a promotion

Yeah as others have said, 2 goals sadly gives an overestimation of how good he actually was in the WAFL.

Looked disinterested, I honestly feel he's tapped out. Champion was better than he was and don't think his performance warranted a game either.

Would ideally be making up the Owies spot with a full game from Long and/or more forward time for Kelly/Gross.

Whats the name of the Hawks flog with the dirty ratty? It still irks me. It doesn’t suit him, it looks painted on and he looks like a private school boy trying hard

They probably sit around in circles after training and do each others rats tails.
