Opinion Round 2 Changes vs. Geelong

[Belnakor]

Serious questions need to be asked if Bartel plays. Gross negligence and very dangerous.

tbh the guy is already putting his health at risk. How many times has he been knocked out? 10+ ?

you also notice it is becoming easier and easier to knock him out - all the signs of a guy who has taken too many hits to the head.

Where do rockliff's broken ribs fit in to the universe's plan then?

Past life?

I'm clutching at straws here.

Anyone remember Jordan Lewis a couple of seasons back? He passed tests too and looked like a deer in the headlights come game time.

 

[MadDocker]

I'm all for them playing a deer in the headlights against us. Usually the Dockers fighting through adversity. Fortune swinging our way for a change could help give us another crack at the big one.

This first month of footy will really paint a picture of where we should expect to be come finals time.

Say a worst case of 3-1 and you would think top 2.

 

[MadDocker]

Top 2 with a healthy list... Boy oh boy woweee.

September is a long way away. Nice to dream though.

 

[beetz]

That's it, loooong way away, anything can happen. Just saying, it's a tough first month and will set ourselves up for the rest of the season - it'll give the boys a lot of confidence.

 

[MadDocker]

Early season treat of getting the new recruits and Peel side to come in and take care of the Eagles?? Cmon Ross, do it.

Agree though. A win on the weekend certainly would help. It's a long season and I'm sure we'll drop a few unexpected games. Wins against the tough sides early are really really good to bank.

 

[Grape Bear]

Teams out yet? I'm watching out for the melts!

Sheridan's got to stay. In the last when that ball bounced over his head in the goal square, a commentator said that he'd ran from half back to get there. I f you can get yourself into opportunities like that you're bound to get some luck eventually

He probably will stay. Apparently RTB said on his 6pr interview that Mz is unlikely, So it may be just Tabs for Suban, although, Croz might get a gig if they want to expose the cats on the outside. Will be interesting, I wouldn't have said this a week ago, but if you were looking to expose them for pace, Weller might not be a bad sub option. Come on and burn em with pace in the last quarter. I guess we'll find out in 15-20 mins.

 

[Simmofreo]

Giants have theirs up on their website. Not sure where all the others are

 

[Seppo]

Squad changes
Mzungu, Taberner and Crozier into the 25.

Exactly what I think we all would have been expecting. Shame there wasn't a Blakely / Weller in; Suban out as well.

And I have been a long time fan of Suban, just had enough now...

I am going to write this in very small font size.
I have just had another look at our fixture and if we can get over Geelong this week it is not beyond possibility that Fremantle could go to the bye undefeated.
Don't attack me or ridicule, I just ask you to have a look at the draw.

 

[StingBitten]

Very happy with that... great to see Crozier were rewarded for his strong performance as well.

Final prediction is

In: Mzungu, Taberner
Out: Suban, Noidea

Sydney on ANZAC day the biggest hurdle after this week.

 

[TheMcManusNose]

Sydney on ANZAC day the biggest hurdle after this week.

Yep. More confident at home against them though, the last 2 years have been at the SCG.

Consider we were 4-4 after round 8 and the lol norf debacle last year.

Winning early against Port and hopefully the Cats and Swans will set up up amazingly well for the traditional Peel game in round 22/23.

 

[Square Peg]

In: Mzungu, Taberner

You want to drop Suban twice?

 

[Fred Ziffel]

Correct, but ....

 

[MadDocker]

Boooo Square Peg. Booooooo.
