Haven't heard back from the original email yet. Might try and call them on Monday.

Yeah I forgot about Suban but I think Morra will play first round he looks in ripping condition they are just being extra cautious at the moment with him. I can't 100% say that will be the team as injuries can ocur and rehab has no timeframe it's just a rough go. I can't see too many players playing ressies as the rookies have shown enough to convince me they are easily WAFL league standard.
I really doubt Mora will play round 1. If he is I will probably go though.
Players in the reserves would probably be excess developing talls or those coming back from injury I would think.
Then there are already established players at Peel like Motlop, Garlett and Thornton, all of who are ex AFL players.
Mora isn't even doing contact drills yet, I can't see him playing for a month or 2, sadly.
Not entirely true. If he has his fitness right up there at the moment and the club is choosing to hold him back from until the last minute to get his touch back, he could be right for Peel in round 1.
Maybe so, however if I were a betting man i'd be putting my money on him not playing rd 1 for Peel.

Eventually they will have to bite the bullet and have him train in contact drills and give him game time. It will get to a point where holding him back is just holding him back. Only a specialist can make an informed decision on this but when he is given the go ahead I will do everything possible to see his first game live. Even if it's for the Peel reserves. I can't wait.
Can't get a link but the Sunday Times have done a Peel best 22..interesting reading.

I was reading it in a cafe this morning..should've taken a pic. Looked like a formidable line up. They named Sylvia in it.
They went on to say that Peel should make finals, but East Perth will win multiple flags.

Of course they did with the unbelievable depth the eagles have.
Fair call on Sylvia he may not be as fit as most of the Freo squad and has had a slight injury set back.
Morabito is some way off playing footy. As others have said, until he does contact stuff there is no chance he will play actual games.
FYI the last time he made it back to the game I went and watched his WAFL comeback and it started with just a quarter or so in the WAFL ressies, gradually increasing to a full game of reserves and then he started playing WAFL League. He was just starting to dominate WAFL at league level (maybe 4 or 5 rounds in total from the start of the season?) when he went down again. I reckon he was getting pretty close to playing AFL at that point.
I imagine it will take longer this time, possibly the first 1/3 of the season
