Phil Matera not playing.

[Essendon Fan]

Matera, the competition’s equal-leading goal-scorer this season, pulled up sore after training during the week and West Coast has decided not to risk him on the trip east.

West Coast took Chad Morrison and Kane Munro as its emergencies, and will decide which one will play just before the game. (afl.com)

Hmmm,
could help,
although we have Fletch and Hird out,so maybe not...?

as you said, hird and fletcher didnt pass fitness tests and will also miss so it kind of even things up.

fido will be a tough player to replace as he is our leading goalscorer this year, but we should still have enough firepower to compensate his absence. I feel that munro will probably come in and play a similiar as to last week againt the tigers and slot in on the flanks and pockets for the odd possession here and there.

we will also regain chick, who should have the ability to score several goals on the run and inside 50 if we can feed him the ball, so matera will not be the greatest loss we can suffer (gardiner would have to be it) although he will still be a great loss.

anyway, may the best team win, remember no need for the jackets this week (you wont be needing them) and go the eagles!
