Team for Next week

[poshman]

solly has been among our most consistent performers this year, if he has only played a couple of decent games, you would rate the rest of the list where?

not something you give up on a player for.

 

[estibador]

His actions are one of several mongrel acts the club has had in recent years, and in my opinion ranks lower than Farmer's eye gouge. Ido not support those actions at all, and just because a player has managed to play some decent games for us is not enough of a reason to keep him on the list.

We're running a football club here, not a church picnic.

 

[DCFCFAN84]

OUT:
Solly (Susp)
Peake
Thornton
Mark Johnson
Farmer
Hinkley (I like him but he has had 2 poor weeks in a row and he is too small for AFL atm let him play the year out in the WAFL IMO)

IN:
O'Brien (kicked 4 goals on the weekend couldn't be any worse then Farmer)

Head (Simply put he is better then Thornton)

Black (Payed his dues in the WAFL we have gotta test him too see if he is gonna play for us next year)

Bradley (Had a very good game on the weekend bring him back for a couple of weeks depending on form)

Duffield (Give him some more AFL experience)

Webster (Why not play him not like we have anyone else to play )

 

[brose]

why not give mcmanus a send off this week we need something to cheer about and its probably his last chance bar the derby to play in a winning side for freo.

Definetely no point in dropping him but I thought Browney was very disapointing.

 

[hoss]

This would be my team for this week:

F: Farmer* - Pav - Warnock
HF: Mayne - Tarrant - Schammer#
C: O'Brien" - Ibbotson - Hinkley
HB: Dodd - Michael Johnson - Mundy
B: Grover - McPharlin - Hayden

R: Sandilands - Carr - Palmer

I/C: Browne - Head - MaJohnson^ - Bradley"

Emergency: Black (for Hayden - no need for 3 emergencies)


Qualifications:

* Farmer - don't think he necessarily deserves to play, but we're scraping the barrel, and if he plays all games for the rest of the seaosn he will reach 250 in Rd 22. I think he deserves that.

# Schammer - tries his guts out, and although he has skill "issues" I think he should get the rest of the seaosn to try and sort it out.

^MaJohnson - still against him even being on our list, but it was him or Macca, and I think MaJ offers more. If he's a chance for retaining for next year he may as well play... where I think Macca is no chance (fingers crossed).

" O'Brien / Bradley - reward the young players for good WAFL form. They were both good last week by all accounts.

Looks good, but we have to fit Crowls in there now (probably in our best couple the last few weeks).

Easy....Josh goes out, Crowley comes [stays] in

 

[Bluto]

Definetely no point in dropping him but I thought Browney was very disapointing.

Depends what you were expecting though, given it was his first game in about a year, was playing the best and strongest midfield in the comp, and in crappy conditions away from home.

If he had played all year I would have expected much much better, but 13 touches and 3 tackles isn't awful first up. Given the circumstances. He was easily better than Peake, Hinkley, Farmer and probably Carr.

 

[pistol17]

Solly, Thornton, Peake and Mundy out.

Head, Obrien, Bradley and Duffield should come in.

I have seen the usual Mundy bashing this week but for mine he pulled out of atleast 3 contests, from memory, in the first half...poor effort by the bloke and a real shame because he has the skills but won`t put his body on the line when needed.

Dont be stupid... No where near getting dropped!

 

[FREO81]

OUT: Thornton Ma Johnson Farmer Solomon
IN: Hayden Head Obrien Webster

 

[DCFCFAN84]

I am pretty sure McManus last game will be against the Eagles it only seems right to go out on a win

 

[newlander77]

I can't see why they have been playing Thornton over Bradley. At least Kepler puts his body on the line and tries! I know who I'd rather have playing back there. He's wasted in the WAFL.

It doesn't matter. Harvs knows well that Kepler will be here next year but he's not so sure about Thornton [even though he probably should be, that he won't be here]. Can't really see it any other way.

Surely it does matter. The kids confidence was be absolutely blown. That's 2 years playing in the reserves.

 

[Dock_king]

Stupid? I`ve never bagged the guy before but he was very soft on the weekend.

yes, yes, he`s got great skills, gets a lot of the ball etc but he pulled out of a couple of contests early in the match and I hope Harves is trying to send a message that taking the easy option and not attacking the ball, or the man with the ball, is not on.

I know dropping him might push him more towards seeking a trade at the end of the year but if we want the team to move forward the players must know that anything less than 100% effort is unacceptable.

Letting players get away with crap like that is stupid.

 

[Bateman]

I'd give Mourish a run in the forward pocket. Might as well see how he goes.

Out - Thornton, Peake, Solly, Farmer
In - Head, Kepler, Black, Mourish

So would I but he is a rookie and would need to be promoted.

 

[Palmer]

OUT:
Solly (Susp) - Gone for season I reckon
Peake - Too many errors
Thornton - Terrible, couldn't hold a tackle if life depended on it
Ma Johnson - Not the future, so why playing?
Farmer - Terrible

IN:
Bradley - Playing good footy, we need to find a possie for him
Head - Dunno why he was dropped
Black - Need to find out if he wants to play next year
O'Brien - Has to play every game to end of year
Duffield - Simply last chance

Im glad Thornton and Peak are in....

 

[DCFCFAN84]

It's hard to tell if your being sarcastic.

 

[curry23]

It's hard to tell if your being sarcastic.

I think he means that we should tank

 

[poshman]

I think he means that we should tank

I dont think he knows what he means

 

[Palmer]

I can.. its called empty space. Its more effective than Farmer in the forward line cause it gives Pav room to move.

Your out for good.....Ha. Stop bagging them

 

[Palmer]

OUT:
Solly (Susp) - Gone for season I reckon
Peake - Too many errors

Your Wrong

 

[curry23]

I dont think he knows what he means

Yeh true, but if he wants Peake and Thornton in the team then he must want us to tank.

Also Palmer why do you support 2 teams?

 

[Scham]

Your Wrong

You're new to this board, but you'll come to learn very quickly that this is no surprise, he is never right!

 

[Palmer]

Outs: Thornton, Peake, Solomon(susp)

Ins: Bradley, O'Brien, Head

This is actually a futile exercise. We all know Thornton and Peake will line up next week.

I don.t mind Keplar. I think his best role would be as a tall midfielder. Where is Drum at these days?

No way what would you know Peak in Thornton in Soloman out W\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\h
