Prediction Changes v Hawthorn

[arsesmart]

Rain in Perth is already factored in as intermittent from early Sunday morning.

Yup, at this stage BOM is predicting 70% chance for 0.2mm, 50% for 10mm and 25% for 20mm of rain on Sunday. So the odds are rain won't be a big factor.

I'm sure they'd love to have the luxury of doing so, but there are 0....I repeat, 0, other small forward options currently available to us.

Joel Western?

Joel has played 1 senior footy game. I am a big fan of Western and want the selectors to be less conservative but I think it is fair enough they let him string together some senior footy before throwing him in at AFL level. Really hope he takes another step this weekend alongside Henry and Crowden. Suspect Peel might put him in the midfield more this time. Although without a ruck or a single tall forward I'm not sure Peel will be all that functional again.

Treacy's absence from our lineup baffles me.

The Weags (bear with me) have Kennedy and Darling AND this week it seems they'll play two rucks. We've got Tabs and a developing Treacy - a solid well-positioned body and a beautiful goalwards kick in all the games I've seen - and 2 rucks. ?????

Yes, I know Lobb's missing from my argument. When he's ready - when - then the balance will be reviewed. Meanwhile Treacy's getting nil experience at AFL level. If he's part of our future forward strategy, and why on earth wouldn't he be, isn't our Future Here???

Not suggesting he play, just saying we don't have 0 options.

While I'd love to see it, he looked underdone in the WAFL last week.

Yep. Joel was barely WAFL level last week

I can't fathom why Watson was drafted when we already had a surplus of half backs .

Token ranga?

 

[AFLOnline]

Feel it’s important to cut through the sarcasm..

He’s done for about 12 weeks.

we’re in a lot of pain over here right now

Haha thanks mate, I got the sarcasm, didn’t think it would be a 12 weeker though. That sucks for you guys.

 

[Dockeroo]

Sturt trained yesterday didn’t he? Coz I was starting to smell a rat about his injury status if he didn’t play for either peel of freo this weekend...
Next minute - “oh Sam just had a setback after least weeks game in the WAFL”...

 

[wayToGo_]

Somebody is getting a debut...

 

[Taylor]

And hopefully he never wears the Peel strip again.

If he kicks 10 I'll jump the fence and give him a hug.

Nice but would rather he was given a big contract extension.

[freo1997]

He is the chosen one..

He will bring balance..

In honesty i hope he gives a good contest and kicks 2. Don't expect too much.

Like I've said all along in this thread, the changes this week are excellent and I wholly respect the match committee...

Would it be binding if he signed my arm that says he agrees to a five year extension with terms to be decided later?

Until tomorrow... when we find out about Sturt.

JL’s trolling skills are far better than I could have ever imagined

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Sooo Treacy and Sturt are in (they arent holding him back from Peel to be an emergency), Fyfe is in and I assume one of Watson and Duman

In: Sturt, Treacy, Fyfe, Watson
Out: Switta, Shultz, Young aanndd....

 

[BettercallSaul]

You’re not wrong. As I posted earlier re the big cheer for Treacy I thought he is in but then I heard JL presser and was convinced I imagined the whole thing!

 

[wakojako]

The only appropriate way for treacy to make his first appearance on the field is not to run through the banner, but to run through the opposition team when they walk on the field and send them tumbling.

Surely one of Meek or Darcy?

look at you assuming no else got injured at training/won’t get injured before Sunday

(in that dream world, I’d say probably one of Darcy/Meek given the conditions)
