Game Day Freo v toast

[Spirit Level]

Just win pls

its a bit of a worry that Wagner is out, he's done some great jobs this year however that should be more than balanced by Young starting.

For all his faults Johnson is also a loss, he provides a big body around stoppages and is getting better at putting himself in useful positions during transition (but still does braid dead stuff and holds the ball too long). It will be interesting to see if Erasmus can provide as much more more (I have very little faith in his football IQ but don't doubt his toughness).

Duds is a nice sub that could come on and find some space late.

Really its probably just as strong (or stronger including Young) that we put out last week and won against the ladder leader.
I have no doubt the Eagles will try to make this as fast as possible a game as that is our perceived weakness (that and heat around the ball) but if our team defense and intensity in contest can't handle a kitchen sink couple of quarters from the worst team in the league then we have no business playing finals anyway.

I just want it to be over (which I hate as I want to actually enjoy watching the game unfold).

Hopefully the players aren't thinking about percentage and just treat the Eagles like we are playing Collingwood.

We stuff these games up when the players all try and kicks bags of goals.

Does anyone else often forget who the West Coast coach even is?

Isn’t it Woosha?

I never EVER take anything for granted as a 30+ year member. I still can’t imagine this game being easy in any way shape or form. I guess that’s what PTSD does to you.

This is a huge game for Neil Erasmus. He will get more opportunity this week with Young on limited minutes and Johnson out. Take your chance Neil.

Grab it by the balls Neil and then leave us for Victoria. This is the way.

Well Mat Stevic is umpiring…….

Was going to angry emoji but don’t want to put that on you

Might just determine where he is playing next year

 

[MadMundy]

Really just need to be business as usual and get the job done today, focus on winning and then move onto the next game.

 

[Arkhitect]

Freo by 25 in a professional win. I don't expect a blow out win as we haven't had many of those this year. WC also playing their grand final and have probably been setting themselves up for this one.

If we do win I'll post something special, after the game, that I've been working on.

Pretty much this, it's the only game they have worth fighting for each year (well twice each year)

They won't make it easy for us, we should be comfortably better though.

 

[academicbowl]

Erasmus sub. Don't love it, he tends to take time to build into the game. Might be hoping to take Young off in the 3rd quarter

 

[noise36]

Please just dont shit the bed, get the 4 points with no injures.

 

[Kram]

Who are west coast?

I know who they are I just don't know where it is.

 

[Le RickyBobby]

Looking forward to the bloodbath.
Freo by 125pts
Shai to kick 7

 

[MadMundy]

Erasmus as the substitute I kind of gathered would happen, but I can't say I'm a fan of it.

 

[Footskill]

Ras sub is like a precursor or bench warming for Fyfe as sub next week or the one after maybe

 

[Sir Deadly]

We need a BIG percentage booster today after this Gold Coast game!

 

[freo_leo29]

They're definitely gonna show up

Need to outlast them

 

[E Shed]

Getting nervous

 

[CapitalA]
