Prediction Changes v Bombers

[Biggie]

Pity neither of your ins are available for selection.

The club is set to welcome back several key players this week, including forward-ruckman Drew Petrie, dashing half-back Jackson Nelson and livewire goal sneak Jamie Cripps.

Then I'd be more inclined to drop him than Mcinness to make way for Petrie once he's had a WAFL game or two to earn his spot

I'm over jacks flopping about, it's just downright embarrassing. He's still best 22 because he can do some good things and can be relied upon for a couple of goals but he needs to elevate his game by being strong at the contest more consistently

whilst he flopped like knob like that - he still didn't shirk that bump. That does not indicate he is soft at contests etc

Could really do with domo's nonna's clean hands in this game, so..

In: domo's nonna
Out: Priddis

BAHaHaha very good!

No that was not a full on contact - he did shirk the issue

Cripps and Nelson will be playing this weekend

The only question is whether it's at Etihad or Fremantle oval

Had checked every injury list I could find, none of which had them coming back. Didn't see the mention in a story about Duggan.

If what we dished up last game is what you'll get on Sunday, expect Kennedy to kick 9.

You won lol

 

[DapperJong]

Yeah but Kennedy is a lot better than Hawkins who was basically our main threat. Then there's the Le Cras factor. I still have nightmares about that.

3.9 instead of 3.6.

Oh boy wowee.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Oh boy Keys, somebody warn the Bulldogs board.

 

[Keys]

I'm not usually one to get caught up in that sort of chest beating, but a female field umpire is quite an achievement for her

The question now becomes if when she gets abused, as all umpires inevitably do, will that be considered sexist?

Im sure if we win the free kick count they'll just say she was dating one of the WC players...

Of course it will, then the AFL will come out and tell us all how we're all casual sexists if we boo her decision.

Did anybody else notice gaff was struggling to walk at the end of the game?

#Keys how was he at training today?

Was footage after the siren, serious limp going.

Only if she cops extra for being a woman (which she will). It'll be all the same posters choosing this hill to die on too.

Insights into this with Lauren Holtkamp in the NBA. I usually groan when I see she's on a Clippers game, because she's had run-ins in the past and called some really baffling technicals. After one particularly bad tech, on Chris Paul, he said post-game "If that's a tech, this might not be for her" and everyone was so trigger happy on the sexist call. I'm sure it will come out.

To be honest though, more worried about it going the other way. Already seen plenty of suggestions she won't be able to keep up with the game, and that players might try to bully her. "What happens when one of the players runs over her and knocks her out", that sort of stuff.

Edit: Found the best response - "There goes the last bastion of maleness. Welcome to a feminised world fellas; a world where you can never just be fellas ever again." Umpiring was the last bastion of maleness.

I heard she was best man at Dean Cox's wedding.

she's pretty good looking. I wouldn't put it past some moron to either hit on her or say something very inappropriate.


sidenote: the Goal umpire from friday was pretty good looking as well. The other one is very tall and was pretty annoying cause he blocked my view at the derby when i was sitting at the front row.

He has been struggling but there was footage of him barely able to walk after the Hawks game and ditto the Port game.
