Preview Preview & Changes R11 v Walyalup @ Optus

[chachi11]

Boak and Ratkins turnovers, this will be over by quarter time

 

[Schulzenfest]

I'm so very happy I'll be busy when this game is on.

 

[Coobk001]

Fascinated to see Burton selected. He must've had a miracle recovery this week.

Still dont understand why Moraes is in ahead of Lorenz.

 

[RossFC]

Dylan Williams will be on the plane as travelling emergency. Sweet and Berry playing SANFL.

 

[240volt]

Fascinated to see Burton selected. He must've had a miracle recovery this week.

Still dont understand why Moraes is in ahead of Lorenz.

He’s very well liked by somebody because he’s getting a lot of games for someone who has struggled for a while.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Fascinated to see Burton selected. He must've had a miracle recovery this week.

Still dont understand why Moraes is in ahead of Lorenz.

Might have been Evans said during the week Burton had a knock during the game, so not a muscle strain.

Don't know what Lorenz has to do. Wash and wax Hinkley's car.

Otherwise the changes as expected. Great to see Jackson finally get a chance. Hope he controls his temper

 

[True__Believer]

Well one plus is Jackson finally getting a look

 

[stewie griffen]

The positive from rat king I guess is that we get a chance to play Berg in the mid

Hopefully Jackson isn't sub, but that's fairly likely

I'd like to see jase roll back more, but seems we have that role earmarked for ratkins?

Odds on us kicking 6 goals lol

 

[Doctor Feel]

Why is atkins in over lorenz lol

 

[GremioPower]

YARTAPUULTI

In: B.Zerk-Thatcher, T.Boak, R.Atkins, H.Jackson
Out: E.Ratugolea (hamstring), La.Jones (hamstring), J.Sinn (hip), J.Horne-Francis (hamstring)

 

[Gryllis]

Disappointing to see all of Boak, Atkins, and Burton in the team over Lorenz. That's too many cooked old players who'll be amongst the worst on ground when we're in play the kids territory.

 

[Lefti93]

Why is atkins in over lorenz lol

Ken, he's a selfless man. Always puts the club first.

 

[HugeJohnson]

Why is atkins in over lorenz lol

Because we're in the premiership window

 

[El_Scorcho]

Lorenz is going to go DFA to somewhere like ****en Geelong or Hawthorn and become a gun.

 

[Relativity]

We need Expect To Win to restart his selection night transcripts. When the club sees that the supporters see them as a joke they might finally react.

 

[raptalia]

I have to defend the selectors to a degree. We are missing a fair bit of experience atm so going for players like Atkins, Burton and Boak is possibly seen as necessary if we are to have any chance. As it is we are going in with Richards, Visentini, Lord, Jackson, Moraes, and Evans who have less than 70 AFL games between them. I am not picking Port to win but I do not want to have to sit and watch while we get another 10-15 goal flogging.

We have a fair bit of young blood in the side.

PS- Selection could be worse as they could have picked Jed McEntee.

 

[El Zorro]

I'm so very happy I'll be busy when this game is on.

I haven't checked what time this game is, but I am sure I'll be busy then too!

 

[RossFC]

 

[Windy Cindy]

4th smashing in 11 weeks incoming

could get real ugly if freo turn up.

and if it sees the end of hinkley then im all for it

 

[Willsy10]

Lorenz is going to go DFA to somewhere like ****en Geelong or Hawthorn and become a gun.

To be fair i can't think of one player we've delisted that has gone on to make us pay elsewhere.

 

[Willsy10]

I think Lorenz not being selected is a little harsh but overall we've not been afraid to play the kids this year. He is probably the only one missing out that could consider themselves a little hard done by. But all the other selections for this week make sense.

This narrative being pushed on here that all of Boak, Burton and Atkins are the worst footballers to ever exist is a bit over the top.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Boak, Burton and Atkins were not the worst footballers to exist, but that was years ago. Now they most definitely huff paint.

 

[JimmyBC]

Boak, Burton and Atkins were not the worst footballers to exist, but that was years ago. Now they most definitely huff paint.

We've gone full cooked potato salad.

 

[Rash]

freo are as shit as us, freo have the advantage due to game being in perth.

freo by 2 goals (we ussaly win or go down fighting after a smashing)

 

[Portmagpies36]

I will be sticking pins in my eyes while this game is on, will be far less painful.
