Preview Adelaide Crows versus Fremantle Dockers

[Joao]

He's their tagger.

Not that I've ever noticed, he's defensive for sure but tagger I am not sure.

What I do know is that 10 disposals is ****house tagger or not for a midfielder.

Having a look, maybe he wasn't tagging. I know he's had a couple of runwith roles, and I did think I'd seen and heard it but maybe not.

OK, he's just shithouse.

He looked great in pre-season but just hasn't hit his straps in the H&A.

How can we beat the Crows? What is a glaring weakness of theirs?

If we play like we did against the Eagles I am not confident we win this one. We need to keep improving our gameplan and skills from last week to be a threat.

Their Forwards are their strength but so is our backline.
Whatever the matchups are though, Pearce has to play FB and Cox CHB, we looked putrid last week with Pearce at CHB on Allen and Cox at FB on Darling!

You will have to name a second dog after him if he gets 10.

will have played more games for Fremantle then he has for GWS if selected this week. 77 for GWS and currently 77 for Fremantle. Will be 78 on Saturday.

Still feels like yesterday that he’s a GWS player.

Not sure if posted but it looks like Draper is on the plane

Brodie not on plane apparently....
Draper possibly just to experience flights etc??

The surprise untried Docker who’s on the plane to Adelaide

Brandon Walker flew to Adelaide as expected, but it was a surprise uncapped member of Fremantle’s travelling party that caught the eye on Thursday afternoon.

Wow!
Must be covering in case Ryan is forced to pull out with his dodgy back
Hamling must be hearing funeral marches in his head

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Probably closer that he might have a slight niggle or the cap at Peel is restricting numbers so they see more benefit with him flying over then playing Peel ressies...

Soz to be a sadsack haha

 

[FreoRicci]

Hamling is surely number 1 back up.
Probably just to experience the away experience.

Brodie to get Peel time?
Brodie, Erasmus, Wagner (if he's fit) in the midfield.

Can you see Hamling getting another contract?

Has to. Logue leaving leaves the KPD stocks absolutely bare. Unless trading in or recruiting a mature ager in the mid season/end of season draft.

I wonder. I think they'll look to do everything they can to fast track Davies and Draper and hope for the best. I think this could be Hamling's last year

Draper is a forward but they have been training him in the backline.

Well that makes perfect sense freo.
Why not train ryan as a forward

 

[Chief Brody]

Of course they are

He has a few kids doesn't he? Need to get him to 100 games this year and next.

Probably will get an one year contract again soon. Chapman out means Wilson is cemented in that backline for a while yet

Losing Logue was supreme mismanagement.
