Changes for Prelim

[WCE1698]

Slow news week for West Australian teams. Definitely wouldn't be surprised if Hackdorn saw Shuey in a moonboot and jumped to conculsions based on nothing. Don't believe anything until the club gives us the official word.

 

[BS_82]

Selwood cant be trusted after his performance last outing versus Jack Ziebel.

Mcginnity is not finals quality.

Priddis and Newman in with Newman to sub.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Priddis and Newman in with Newman to sub.

Newman not playing for East Perth today.

 

[BS_82]

Newman not playing for East Perth today.

Best sub player we have had all season.

Make it happen Simmo

 

[ep2018]

Interesting if they play Wells

Interesting? Admit it, you're pooping your pants.

No I mean he hasn't really played all year. Could be a hindrance or a masterstroke.

Potential changes

Eagles: Priddis and Masten for Selwood and McGinnity
Roos: Tarrant and Nahas for Turner and McDonald

Teams

FB: McGovern Schofield Butler
FF: Petrie Waite Thomas

HB: Hurn Sheppard Wellingham
HF: Higgins Brown Harvey

C: Masten Shuey Gaff
C: Dal Santo Jacobs Gibson

HF: LeCras Darling Hutchings

R: Naitanui Yeo Priddis
R: Goldstein Ziebell Swallow

I: Ellis Rosa Hill

S: Sheed

E: Selwood McGinnity Nelson

Obviously our sub is impossible to pick.

Interesting match-ups:

• Gibson running with Gaff
• Jacobs tight tag on Shuey
• Shep/Hurn having to step up on their third tall
• Battle of inside mids: Priddis, Yeo and Hutchings v Cunnington, Ziebell and Swallow
• Trying to stop their classy half-forwards. Higgins and Harvey are key players.

Shuey would be a huge loss


Still 7 days away let's hope it heals ......sounds lie stress fracture to me

 

[WCE Wizard]

I heard from Mark Duffield that its a sore foot but it should be good this was on the ABC Radio

Sore ...hmm you can't jab a foot with painkillers though or else you can't kick the ball

Praying it's ok (lol not religious though ......

When was this?

 

[WCE Wizard]

When was this?

On ABC radio when he was being interviewed by the Melbourne journos today morning

 

[Keys]

Surely there's someone within the Eagles whose job is to feed bullshit to Hagdorn for shits and giggles. Every now and then they might throw him a bone (Priddis a late out for example) just to ensure he keeps taking the bait

 

[ep2018]

North seem pretty cocky on their board. I think if it's close in the last quarter we'll have the fresher legs to win.

Hagdorn probably went on EFH and saw the Priddis rumour there, and went with it

Not really - he will use the other foot for his kicks.

We seem very cocky on our board as well to be fair

We are $1.20 favourites so not surprising.

 

[kaiserchief13]

So when did Shuey supposedly get injured?

Late in QF, finished on bench.

 

[Nuke Fremantle]

Our East Perth players didn't exactly smash the door down today. Can't see any left field changes this week.

 

[kaiserchief13]

Late in QF, finished on bench.

Would've thought he would be on the bench anyway since game was over

 

[whatis]

I can't concentrate on anything else. Win this and we're in a Grand Final; it doesn't seem real. I feel sick.
