The odds are pretty long*, since virtually every professional and semi professional team in existence in Oz football has already played in a GF it's hard to replicate. In order to do it you need to be at a AFL Club that played it's first GF in the same era as being affiliated to second level team that had never played in a GF or vice versa. Basically only Freo (Mz), GC and GWS can do it in the current era. Who kicked GWS's first in the NEAFL the other week?
*(Mathematically it's 22 * 22, 1 in 444, just for the two teams, without taking into account all the other conjunctions required you could put a number too. I'd suggest tens of thousands to one. If not millions.)
Looks like there is a fair bit of rain around for Sunday 
Hope that changes
Otherwise we'll all be under the big concrete umbrellas

I know I'm on my own with this but I'd like to see Haydon, Thorne or Bray come in for Griff.

He's also our first ever player to take a catch in the crowd at a Big Bash League game!
Any word of a Freo board contingent heading in for this one? I've been pretty crook on and off for a few weeks but I'm still keen to get along and have a beer with a few regulars if anyone's interested.

I don't think they're tall enough ...
Apeness is pretty much the lone key forward in that line-up. I guess you could include Yarran as well if you wanted. So with that, they won't want him rucking parts of the game and having no primary target up front.
While he's rucking then Clarke becomes...yeah see what you mean, no primary target up forward.
Seriously though, Bell and Yarran are fine as targets if Ape is rucking and Clarke is at FF for short spells. Otherwise ruck Silvagni who is as tall as Subi's ruckman. Collins, Bootsma and Hughes can look after the Subi tall forwards.

Delucs will tag Kitchin again, not sit in a forward pocket.
Going to be wet so I don't think Hannath will join Clarke, Griffin and Apeness. They will be too tall surely. That's a strong team on paper nevertheless.

I'll be there. Hopeful the old Subi members bar is open.
All this talk of this Peel side being the Dockers really isn't there. Besides Clarke, suban and Yarran, most of that side barely played any game for Freo this year.
What happens with the VFL alignment sides? Do they have a limit on numbers of AFL listed players?

Personally I think a cutoff of 5 WAFL games isn't right, it should be a combo of say no more than 10-12 AFL games but must have played 8 WAFL games too. We'd have 11 guys under the 10 AFL games which feels about right to me.

Yes was a wwt old game and Deluca was hard at it. On that note he could be a double premiership player.
