Prediction Changes v Gold Coast ( Round 15 )

Pirate?

Possible

Could be wrong…but my gut feeling tells me Aishy likes the company of his own kind if you get my drift. Not that there’s anything wrong with that as Seinfeld once said.

Bandana - hair lacky wearers?

Frederick: Freo too ‘comfortable’ before Bulldogs thumping

Fremantle forward Michael Frederick has conceded the Dockers may have been too ‘comfortable’ before their 67-point thrashing at the hands of the Western Bulldogs at the weekend.

Is that meant to read Brayshaw said he prefers to play on the outside as opposed to inside mid?

That's prob one of the most disheartening things I've heard all year if that's the case. He may well be better suited outside but to not want to play inside mid is a bit mindboggling.

Not really. Firstly we have many inside mid options. and it is unbalancing our list. Some of those options would probably end up better than him in there.In truth, It would be better if he succeeded elsewhere Secondly, he was probably referring to being the first receiver inside mid rather than ball getter. Too bad as far as I am concerned. It would be better in Youngs or even Serongs hands than Brayshaw's We could use his running ability and bit of extra speed on the wing ( Where we lack good options)or let him freelance at hhf. Would be better for the team all round

Brayshaw should be playing like N.Anderson (not a great kick imo) so I'm not sure why he's started disappearing in games other than his workrate must have dropped..

I think he might be carrying something, but I still don't understand why they persist with him in there. He isn't great in there on a consistent basis and we have many other options.

I don’t watch wafl footy, so have no idea of form.

On what we’ve seen in the afl Emmett is a depth player who gives it everything he’s got. At his best he creates opportunities with pressure and desperation. Unfortunately, he lacks the polished finishing skills of an ideal afl forward.

Simpson has the polish and looks like a future best 22 player, but he isn’t strong enough to stick a tackle. Does he do enough yet to make up for the reduced pressure he will put on?

Maybe wafl watchers will have a better sense of that, but from exposed afl form Emmett offers more.

You have made a good summary.

Cooper is skillful and with some attributes that will translate across to AFL like initial burst speed, a neat sidestep and ability to create space and compose himself before executing a disposal.

The problem is he goes missing for large chunks and doesn’t have the muscle build especially through core and hips to make an impression in a contest. He also had an injury interrupted underage 2023 season.

Emmett on the other hand is the complete opposite. He goes hard and like a bull to red rag. Number of times he just charges at opposition which is impressive but when it comes to execution it is messy both in terms of execution and decision making. His last game for Peel vs Perth he was definitely a little less hyper. In terms of his body it is afl ready and very strong through the core. Whether he can improve composure is the key. To this point there is no evidence to say he has but he has time on his side.

Who do I like better well that is an easy question to answer. Cooper Simpson. But from the recent body of work at Peel I wouldn’t select him.

If it was me I wouldn’t select either actually as per my earlier post. I’d select the best players that can win us a game of football. That for me would include Wagner. Not as a forward but as someone who can rotate off half back and wing. JOM playing a bit more forward and Brody to sub out either of Fyfe or JOM (pending an injury of course). If they purely want forward pressure (not that Walters has provided too much of that really) then Emmett would be the better option ahead of Wagner, Brody and Johnson.

 

[Taylor]

This may seem trivial but given his bloodlines he is one that you absolutely make a priority of getting to 100.

His Dad was a terrific footballer and his uncle an absolute all time great of SA football.

Yeah you're hearing exactly what I'm whispering between the lines there.

He is from a massive football family and having those forever ties to Freo could lock in a long line of Aish for Fremantle. The sort of guys who grew up with a football in their hands before they could walk.

 

[yakamoto]

Can adopted children qualify as father/son?

 

[Taylor]

Can adopted children qualify as father/son?

Yes, but the club and the family have to petition the AFL for a special ruling on that one - only biological relations are qualified automatically, and there isn't a requirement to prove that.

 

[yakamoto]

So maybe we need a surrogate mother.
Any volunteers on this Board?

 

[Taylor]

His boys need to grow up with their father.

 

[Pivot Piece]

Can we discuss changes yet or are we still on possibly homosexual players and surrogate mothers?

 

[apuchar]

Well unless Justin has cooled down there will be some changes and there should be. How many times are we going to hear this stuff. Why are they so comfortable after a little bit of success. I think it is more than that.

More interesting than discussing changes though tbh

 

[apuchar]

Not really.

 

[freo_leo29]

Think everyone going too black or white with aish

Blur the lines a little and a reckon you're there

I hope Freddy included himself in that group.
I was looking in the Dockers cheer squad to see if he was there.

It did look bad.

 

[yakamoto]

I think Aish has been solid as a defender in most games. Strong overhead and good at ground level. Like most of his team mates had a very poor game on Saturday. Not in dropable territory this week.

 

[Quay Club]

Pirate?

 

[yakamoto]

Worner very unlucky to come back in for last Saturday’s game.
Chapman to return one hopes.
Johnson into 22. Who to omit from midfield? Replace Walters. Someone from Peel? No appealing candidate.
Send Darcy to the fat farm?

 

[DQ 4EVER]

He does remind me a bit of Groucho from sesame street lol

You missed the Marx there

We need to go back in time and select Wilson at the mid season draft. 5 goals on the weekend would be a handy replacement for Walters.

Brodie is consistently best player for Peel and in particular last weekend with no junk possessions, seems to be running better and need to reward effort
