Random WCE v Melb thought about a game I remember going to in Melbourne with me dad.

Was a great day at the footy and part of an 11 game winning run in 1996

Let's hope the boys can have a great game

who sends it back in again. Rinse and repeat.
We can’t stop Gawn dominating in the centre bounce, but we can attempt to run the ball out and kick it to a position on the ground where he isn’t, after the centre bounce.
This could get ugly, and the tricks bag is bare, there are no changes that we can make that will stop this, because the ruck cupboard is empty.
Some people are constantly banging on about drafting mids, mids, mids, and that’s it, we do need a couple of mids, but it’s as plain as the nose on Bill Lawry’s face that we need ruckmen, not just one but 2.
Barnett was drafted to fill the role of an up and comer, but he’s got the heart the size of a pea.
Flynn……..meh
B Williams……..meh
J Williams……..too small
Archer Reid…….. got potential.

Campbell Chesser is set to play against Melbourne on Saturday. Tom Gross also a likely in for West Coast. #AFL

 

[NeedForTheReids]

Happy about this. Chesser one last crack at it and gross just had to come in.

If Owies is still in the lineup when teams are released I will spew up

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Guessing Gross and Chesser for Harley and Owies.

Maric sub, Dewar into the 22.

Owies to travel as 24th man. Johnston possibly also traveling on standby for Duggan. Jilliams the other emergency as he’s basically the only tall left (I’m assuming Edwards won’t get up.

 

[PremiershipNo4]

Probably the match committee.

Match committee says yes, you’re in Chesser!

 

[Dark Sharks]

Definitely prefer Newton to Chesser. Hopefully someone else is going out if Chesser is confirmed in.

Gross for Reid is a no brainer.

 

[PremiershipNo4]

Definitely prefer Newton to Chesser. Hopefully someone else is going out if Chesser is confirmed in.

Gross for Reid is a no brainer.

Chesser has an unbelievably shocking run with injuries, I hope the young man plays well.
My eldest son suffered a dislocated ankle earlier this year, came back played 1 and 1/2 games and got a dislocated patella, broke a bit of bone off 17mm x 5mm, torn meniscus and needs a medial ligament reconstruction. He’s the best young ruckman in Broome dominates the hit outs. He’s in surgery this morning in Perth at Hollywood hospital.
We can’t underestimate the horror run of injuries Chesser has had on his development, we should be backing him in 100% and hoping he can be a solid player long term.
I’m still very hopeful on Chesser.

Maric was one of our better players against Fremantle. Gotta leave him at HB and let him play side by side with McCarthy for a bit. Dewar gotta go back to the wing

 

[Cuzz09]

Yes! Go the Chess!!

Last chance to save your career

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

If Ryan's struggling at training leave him behind. Infact may be best to rest him for the year at this point and give Newton a full run

Chesser, Gross and Petruccelle on the plane. #AFL

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

Chesser, Gross and Petch on the plane.

 

[Spod]

Apparently Flynn dropped.

 

[twce13]

Petch as flying emergency makes too much sense (or owies)

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Apparently Flynn dropped.

I know Flynn isn't' that good and will be little more than a speed bump against Max Gawn, but even that is better than the alternative.

 

[NeedForTheReids]

Could be handful of changes

 

[amazingjoshy]

Gawn had 35 possessions and 47 hitouts and a goal against Flynn last game

His last game against Baz he had 11 touches and 21 hit outs

 

[Chris_6678]

Forward line will be quite short!

Play Ryan as the lead up FF haha.

 

[Cuzz09]

Loch Rawlinson 7 goals Lecca role

 

[Cuzz09]

Sorry...
