Preview Round 11: West Coast vs Essendon, Perth Stadium, Saturday 29/05/2021 @ 7:40 AEST

[Dave]

HJ's was founded in WA.

Pretty sure they existed prior to WA existing.......

I assume this will become the channel 7 game after the postponement of the Gold Coast vs Hawthorn game.

I so want this to be true, but I think they're playing in Sydney instead?

Ahem.

Imagine the scenes if he contributed to beating the team that delisted him (granted, they absolutely would've kept him had his glandular fever not being so bad). The good vibes generated from that would power Perth for a week.

And our collective salt would power the following week.

We were all hoping on our board that we would give him a lifeline - but were all actually happy you guys did when it was apparent we wouldn't.

Yep they are. At the SCG.

 

[eth-dog]

Looking at the sides, I'm expecting the following:

Allen-Wright
Barrass-Hooker
Sheppard-Stringer
Nelson-Walla
Rotham-Waterman
Cole-Snelling

At our defensive end:

Laverde-Darling
Francis-Kennedy
Stewart-Williams
Hind-Ryan
Redman-Jones
Ridley-Petruccelle

Anyone know what position Margot's is playing this week

Deep inside 50 and around the 50 arc. He can easily make the distance over 50m so our mids/defenders need to be wary.

s**t campaigner, bias to the max and doesn't try and hide it.

strangely wet conditions might suit us more than the eagles.

Agreed, we did a lot of dumb things against Brisbane (mostly underestimating the drop of the ball), that we’ll have learned from.
We also like to tackle, they don’t seem to. So with all the HTB frees we get, we should roll it in... second thought we’re screwed.

Who's the other Perth based Umpire? short stocky with blonde hair? He's also had a few great performances for Wet Toast against us.
Might be #22
*WARNING* Lots of "heads" here: Field Umpires – AFLUA

the imagination runs amok when trying to work out what "strangely wet conditions" might look like

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

May as well rest Hooker if it’s particularly wet and throw Ambrose in

Optus Stadium is actually being covered in Willie Rioli's urine samples

Hooksy loved the slop against the Lions. Eats it up. His mother was a mudder.

That's a lot of Gatorade

I wouldn't have changed a winning side. Continuity is a good thing for confidence. Big risk bringing Stringer straight back in without the need to do so.

Jones needed a rest which was fair enough, so it would have been Ambrose or Stringer I guess.

Nah we'll need a good contested mark up forward.

 

[Hird05]

More rain forecast now. Glad Jones being rested. Could use even more big body's come in I reckon.. Ambrose for Zaharakis about the only option. Perfect game for him. Or Wright. Won't happen though.

 

[BOMBERBLITZ]

Any chance we play Waterman in the middle for a bit?
That big body will come in handy.

I think we might look to rotate Stringer, Langford and Waterman through that fourth spot at the centre bounces. Try and keep the Eagles on their toes a little.
