2nds 2022 Peel Thunder

[Snuffaluphagus]

Interestingly, I think we have 13 named, I thought we were limited to 12?

Also, I really dont like the *ery we're doing with Erasmus. he should be playing AFL or playing WAFL. There are other players we should be using as non-playing emergencies

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

He's injured

"Injured"

 

[MadMundy]

Damn that's a stacked Peel Thunder team

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Added benefit, we can see Colborne as well

 

[freoextra]

We are allowed to field 13 Freo players?

Is there a limit any more? Can't see anything in the rules:

I think it's a rule we agreed to with Peel. there's no limit on regular season games by the WAFL, only finals (from memory anyway)

Rule 4.1.2 suggests that the limit is 17 players now. And that is specifically for finals.

 

[serial_thrilla]

Every Freo player accounted for. This is unheard of.

AFL (22) - Cox, Pearce, Logue, Young, Ryan, Aish, Acres, Brayshaw, Clark, Banfield, Taberner, Frederick, Switkowski, Lobb, Schultz, Darcy, Serong, Brodie, Colyer, Walters, Mundy, Chapman.

WAFL (13) - Treacy, Amiss, Sturt, Worner, Blakely, Henry, Hughes, Hamling, Wilson, Meek, Crowden, Tucker, Johnson.

WAFL RES (1) - Benning

Held over for AFL (2) - Walker, Erasmus.

Injured (3) - Fyfe, Western, O'Driscoll.

TOTAL = 41
MISSING = 0 !!!

 

[FreoRicci]

Hammer named, Johnson named

Tucker named

Erasmus/Walker look to be AFL Emerg/subs

Really keen eye on Hamling. He’s going to be vital for depth coming up. Next in line for Pearce

 

[FreoRicci]

Interesting that Derksen gets dropped to make way for Amiss, Meek and Treacy

operation hide Derksen is a go??

That’s poor tbh. Derksen has been doing well, building form. Is he in for reserves instead?

Must be injured as said earlier


Benning listed first ruck for the reserves

 

[Docker82]

Derksen was left out of Peel’s team in Round One and played reserves.

Realistically Meek, Treacy and Amiss offer more than he does at this level. Peel preferred Smith to Derksen in Round One - what would’ve changed?

Yes. I’m sure people are going to say Derksen’s performance but I have actually liked what I’ve seen of Smith - not from an AFL potential POV but he looks a very good WAFL player.

 

[wakojako]

He's injured

If the comes to the game tomorrow I'll ask him

 

[E Shed]

I think I may mosy down the road & take in this contest of Australian Rules from the scenic surroundings of Freo Oval tomorrow!

He isn't named for the reserves so the injury news seems right

Also, yes his performance does dictate that he shouldn't be dropped, luckily he wasn't as he is injured

Maybe but does Meek, Amiss, Treacy, Smith and Derksen fit into the same side? My honest opinion is no.

It’s between Smith and Derksen and Peel have picked Smith ahead of Derksen this year.

Derksen obviously has more AFL potential than Smith but I’ve watched Peel every time they’ve played in the season proper this year and I think Smith looks pretty handy. If you wanted to win this week’s game I genuinely think it’s a close call.

We expect full analytical blow-by-blow every 5 seconds deets please. DO not disappoint, or forever be banished to the slathering grottos of the West coast of Doom board to languish in a thousand eternities of interminable anguish as the dirty birds song is sung to you on repeat!

No pressure

 

[DMan 11]

Be interesting to see if Sturt can take his chances with both Treacy and Amiss back in.
Gets a smaller defender and should have some roving opportunities.

Still hoping he’s only being held back because his running numbers aren’t up to scratch.
doesn’t always seem desperate when not in possession .

Johnsons Peel debut will be worth getting down for - can’t wait !

Amiss will get Noah Strom so a very tough ask.
I’m surprised Souths haven’t picked Trent Newton to play on Sturt.
Sturt could get a few if Peel get on top in the middle which they might as Souths are without Dylan Main and Suban.

 

[wakojako]

I'll get to meet the peel players tomorrow

 

[mightymouse75]

I don't understand how many times this has to be said and people still whinge. He is highly rated and will get played either this week or next. The S&C team have done wonderful this season, so why question their judgement now.

Bring back Webber

 

[Wray27]

I think a lot boils down to GPS data. I reckon afl players do 10-15km a game, 20-30% high intensity and multiple repeat efforts. I reckon Sturt is just down on these numbers. When he lifts workrate in the WAFL he’ll be included.

I think you are spot on here. WAFL fit is not necessarily AFL fit.
I’m as frustrated as most about his lack of AFL games but also want him to be able to play a full game and then season.
Would still pick him ahead of Banfield at only 10% fit though
