Game Day Round 11 vs. Fremantle, OS, 8:10pm Friday 24/05

[Cousin of Daicos]

De Goey hadn’t been ruled out yet
Might still play

Miho for reef
Mccreery for WHE
Allan for JDG if unfit

If miho and beau don’t come up
God knows

I wouldn’t play De Goey anyway

Even if he is “right to play”

Not worth the risk

It hope they don't risk him if he's not 100percent

 

[Bianconeri]

So Macrae had 20 pressure acts and is still dropped? Harsh.

Macrae was good, I just think Harvey is the more damaging player in the half forward wing role.

Oh yes I agree about Harvs. He is elite.

But I have both a #18 and #36 guernsey (not for Swan, Sier or anyone but the HH) and see them co-existing where possible.

 

[Mauvais Cheval]

Macrae was good, I just think Harvey is the more damaging player in the half forward wing role.

Some might say #36 is twice the player #18 is.

But I think that is an exaggeration

 

[mocamagic]

We have to give Macrae another run. The continuity might finally bring out the best in him.

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

So we lose De Goey, Hoskin-Elliott and McInnes from the Adelaide game.

The only senior regular we might get back for Fremantle is McCreery.

We might be in some deep sh*t.

Checkers is also a possibility.

 

[Mollythedolly]

Tony Shaw? From when he ran into the tree? Could be quite delayed then…

Was thinking Time Sniper but lets go that way.

Under-rated humour.

 

[Mollythedolly]

I mean…is it though?

Last I checked Freo weren’t exactly a high scoring team

I think so. They've cracked 100pts twice this year, same as us, twice in the 90's, 1 more than us. And they've only had Darcy available to add to that mix for 3 games season to date. I certainly won't be underestimating them.

 

[Mollythedolly]

So you are saying he is an Alfa Romeo

Harsh, I used to own a 105 series GTV, great car.

 

[Fruit]

In 3 of their last 5 games they’ve kicked 68 (Eagles), 39 (Swans in WA) & 72 (Saints away). If our mids and backs can do a job we should have to find a way to kick no more than 10-12 goals.
Not easy but here’s hoping someone can have a day out.

I'd like to think Shoota will be pretty pumped up to have a big game against his old side in his 100th. He's the type I think might really respond to be a bit of booing & animosity.

I’m not underestimating them

I’m just suggesting that attack isn’t their strong suit. Which is a provable fact. You only need to look at their “For” to know that

Defence is clearly their strength and the issue we need to work out.

The only things Time Sniper abbreviates are lives.

 

[Daicos Torpedo]

Under-rated humour.

When Tony ran into the tree, his team mates got a big pile of wood chips delivered and dumped on front yard, with a sign in the middle of it saying "We got the bastard Shawry!"

Their "for" is more a reflection of the Jeckyl & Hyde nature of their season, and that's been mainly due to their midfield failing as often as they've fired, not their forward line.

Happy to agree to disagree on this one.

 

[Run n Spread]

De goey out by the looks.
Nearly put him on ice than a training block return after bye.
Groins can niggle and be a pain to get right.
Need him firing in the back half

 

[Big Bryza]

Amiss and Treacy with a potential for Jackson/Darcy resting forward seems pretty strong to me.

Regardless, Fremantle are a poor scoring side. Their style of play should play right into our hands.

 

[Big Bryza]

We have to give Macrae another run. The continuity might finally bring out the best in him.

If there's ever a chance for Fin to get 3-4 games to show what he's got, the time is now.

 

[cakewalk06]

If Ed Allan is in I doubt he will be sub. Would be a dampener in a debut

 

[Bianconeri]

Considering both Sullivan and Bytel debuted as the sub the I don’t think it’s something the club is too concerned about.

 

[SuperSub17]

I mean…is it though?

Last I checked Freo weren’t exactly a high scoring team

Freo has kicked 4.15 and 9.18 in their last two games.

No doubt they come out against us and kick 16.2 or something

Oh 1000% they have their most accurate game of the season lol

 

[Chrispiesssss]

I think our midfield will be okay. Pendles, Naicos, Sullivan, Crisp, Jaicos & Lippa to help out. If Beau plays, he might get a few minutes in the midfield too.

Goals are going to be the issue. Id rest Nick forward so he can kick 3.
