Prediction Round 9: Changes Vs Sydney Swans + prematch discussion

[CaseySibosadoHOF]

Damn I know Brodie is the common sense choice for the traveling emergency coz he's the best fit player outside the 23 and we're not gonna learn a lot from him dominating a West Coast WAFL midfield, but coaches could've just let him have fun and dominate a WAFL Reserves level team.

Who will be playing in Sydney’s backline?

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Can't believe we are missing out on Brodie getting 60 disposals vs the West Coast wafl team.

I hope they can find a way to win without him

 

[King Tenz]

Tom McCartin OUT for the Swans...

That's enough for me. Confirmed W. Let's get it fam.

 

[ilikepotatoes]

Ladhams and McCartin out is big for us.

Darcy and Jackson need to take control of this game.

Sucks that Brodie is not playing WAFL this week, following a 40 possession game Suma had planned to write an article next week about how Will wants to be traded back to Gold Coast due to lack of opportunities at Freo. One of the voices in Suma’s head reckons we should get 3 first rounders for him.

Something doesn't gel right. Voices in Suma's head would think we should PAY 3 first rounders to get rid of him.

Hi, folks. Despite my resolve to #eco I am considering going to the game at the SCG on Saturday, as the boys so very rarely come over. Is there any way of ensuring I am seated among fellow Dockers tragics as I will be watching the game alone? Advise appreciated!

 

[Scham]

Fyfe sub again in an unchanged line up. Very happy with that.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Fyfe remaining sub is ummm, questionable IMO

 

[Footskill]

Depends if wanted or if Fyfe could have an impact at the clearances. If he was forward, think starting Treacy was ok

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

That is not some all conquering Sydney line up, the guys can win this

 

[Footskill]

Don't think we have good record at SCG overall do we..that's my concern

I’m going but using mates Members tix. Will be surrounded by Swans but I reckon we will pinch this. Wide grounds great for the old switcheroo.

Hey GB. Hope you are well. I bought a ticket too. When you go into ticketek and open the match to book. Click “find tickets”, and then when it asks what category of ticket, select “opposition supporters”. And I think it’s bay 2 from memory

If Sturt isnt picked I really hope we don't travel him this week, want to watch him v wce wafl

Well that's brutal.....

I won't be surprised if Sam Sturt kicks 5 or 6 goals vs the eagles WAFL club.

That record has hardly been built up from playing there 4 times a year, though. It's a completely different team this time from even the last time Freo played there. In other words, "we" — the "we" that matters — don't have a record there at all.

 

[FreoRicci]

Depends if wanted or if Fyfe could have an impact at the clearances. If he was forward, think starting Treacy was ok

It’s his first away game in nearly a year. Better to play it cautious

 

[Freomaniac]

I will say this...

How fit is Nat Fyfe currently? Last thing I want is to him break down with injury again.

If playing him as a sub and he is fully 100 percent fit by round 13 so be it

It's round 9 now. So we have swans this weekend, cats at home and demons at MCG the week after and then a bye.

To be honest, does anyone give us any hope this week? Or any hope in the other 2 games?

 

[BeepTest]

Except for round 1 against the saints. Easy game to forget.

 

[masai tu]

I have shaken that tree more often than I have shaken my post-piss knob. And WAAAAAAY more forcefully. It's an old pine that was planted in the 40s. It wouldn't move if you ran into it in a flaming Tesla.

After a collective couple of days of flinging stuff (rope, sticks, other balls, rocks, passing dogwalkers) up there I decided it can have the footy. It's nestled in a deep basket of gnarled branch, way up high. A cyclone wouldn't shift it.

Cyclone Treacy, ..... maybe.

Ladhams and McCartin out is big for us.

Darcy and Jackson need to take control of this game.

If I recall correctly, Hickey has traditionally done well against Darcy.

 

[King Tenz]

They kept Treacy? Good s**t, keep pumping games into him and drop Banfield when the time comes for Fyfe to play a full game.

Yes I’m confident you will lose money at some stage in the next three weeks.

Tough for away teams at the SCG but Sydney are out of form, would love to pinch this one.
