Changes v Port

[salim malik]

Jack out Pav in only change

 

[freo_leo29]

Good decision imo

Very glad Tanner didn't get dropped. Unfortunate for Jack, but wouldn't be surprised if he gets more opportunities in the coming weeks.

Big risk going in with just Clarke. I guess they want to see how Smith will go against tougher opposition

 

[Righteo]

Happy Smith stays in. I was definitely in favour of dropping one of the rucks and simply having Smith support the remaining one.

 

[holy diver]

Anyone else think were in with a silly chance to win this?

I like it , Clarke is the number 1 ruck. He knee should be ok this week. His knee only allow him to perform fortnightly . Trust me Clarke will perform this week.

Solid change.

I hope Zac shows just what he can do. We need a firing Zac either for next season or as a reasonable asset in trade currency.

Karl Amon in for Polec the only change for Port. Haven't followed them too closely but you'd have thought Polec would stay in given he's suited to Subi.

yeah polec usually plays well against us, happy to see him dropped even if he is out of form

Hannath out for Pav confirmed http://www.fremantlefc.com.au/news/2016-06-16/tabtouch-22-big-return-for-port-clash

Pretty predictable, would love to see Clarke make a statement but I fear his knees wont let him.

Clarke has in the past played his best when he is the lead ruck, so hopefully it helps get him into the game on Saturday.

If Clarke play badly I can always blame you

Will you promise not to sneak up on Zac and kick him in the knee.

Good to see Smith holds his spot. Was really good last week. I expect it will be slippery under foot Saturday. Wonder who will fall over more, Balla or Pav.

It is, but when you see that Jackson Trengrove is their main ruck then it works out. Hannath would be a liability in the forward line anyway with the smalls Port have down back.

SLippery as in wet?
Forecast for Saturday:
Min 8, Max 19, Sunny. Chance of rain: 0%.

Slippery as in the Lachie Weller effect.

Hahaha , I definitely won't , too afraid you spot me in one of the training , chase me and give me a slam tackle. You do know from rumours freo oval surface pretty hard.

 

[Rion]

Think its the correct decision to go in with only 1 ruck. Worse case scenario we get a ruck battle between Tanner Smith/Zac Dawson and Trengrove where both 'ruckman' have no idea what the hell they are doing.

 

[heavho]

Port are a on and off team. If they are off we might have a shot at this one. Freo by 15
Or port by 30 lol

 

[meima]

If mayne bring his kicking boots definitely freo win by 30 or more.

Im glad Ross is giving this Pavlich kid another game. He has showed some real promise. He deserves a few games in a row so we can see how he goes.

I do.

Tucker's going to be pissed if Pav steals his Rising Star nomination this week.
