Prediction Rd 5 Changes vs Port

[ubiquitous226]

I hate seeing Erasmus brought in just to be sub and play 10/15mins the kid deserves a full run at it and stop wasting his time if not let him dominate in the WAFL atleast he gets a full game

I bet that's not how he feels about it.
Even if he's sub there's a chance he's activated early, and if not gets a quarter at AFL level when hopefully the whips are really cracking.

Why no Simpson? We need speed. All other clubs giving games to debutants .

Perfect opportunity with Freddy out to play Simpson.

If you were a player would you rather play a qtr of AFL or a full game of WAFL we’re you can really show your skills

I really think Erasmus is hard done by he dominates every WAFL game and plays like a bull on heat but never gets a look in because JL sticks with the same old stuff

I think Erasmus has the experience and safer option. Simpson has hurt himself during games and come off for extended periods of time. We can't afford that during game time against Port.

I am hoping he soon plays though

So Omera possibly still sub

The bench 5 is Jaeger, Johnson, Raz, Hughes, and Banfield. Gotta think the sub spot will be 1 of Jaeger, Johnson, or Raz.

If Erasmus plays medium forward and kicks a few goals from a few marks it will do wonders for his career. I know he is an inside mid but if he can get a game on the record forward of the ball he will make it really, really easy to pick him in the future.

Agree.

How does Powell Pepper do it?
Does he have more speed?

I doubt it is Jaegar.

Becuase Simpson hasn't done anything to earn his selection yet?

 

[Taylor]

Agree.

He's not super quick but he tested 3rd at the combine for agility.

have you watched him? He still doesn't look AFL ready, if he is not needed yet. We are lucky we have the luxury of being able to develop him more

 

[FreoGirl]

I am glad they have persevered with Johnson

 

[Paracleet]

I'm thinking Johnson will be the sub.

 

[Taylor]

I am glad they have persevered with Johnson

Especially after the Finlayson incident.

 

[Purple Jesus]

Only forced changes. Good messaging from JL - "We ****ing won that, unchanged again".

 

[The Round House Drunk]

I wouldn’t mind seeing Matthew Johnson as the sub, JOM to the wing and Erasmus on a flank.

 

[Mogumber]

Port by a fair bit now! So disappointing we let that game slip last w/end, would've set us up for a Top 4 finish.
Now probs not

Shit defeatist attitude. We can and will smash Port.

 

[FreoGirl]

Especially after the Finlayson incident.

I just feel he has these amazing games waiting to happen, and he is our future

Dropping him could hinder his confidence.

I'm not sure I follow?

Lol at the last sentence

 

[StingBitten]

So hard to know how this game goes - we could proper pantsed or pull off a tight win.

Would've been great going into this game 4-0 like we deserved and taking whatever outcome a little easier.

Feel this one is make or break. We can do it!

 

[freo84]

Am i the only one who got Taylor's joke?

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

I'm not sure I follow?

Johnson and everything Finlayson has been in the news for

Have you watched any Peel games, he gets a lot of it, but must learn to do more with it and maybe take a few marks and kick a goal or two

Yes I have watched his peel games he plays as the #1 midfielder he is more the brute that gets it out to the wingers or the more quality kickers, he is capable of a snag here n there but doesn’t have the luxury when he’s carrying such heavy loads in the WAFL, if he got a full game at AFL playing forward/mid I guarantee he’ll bob up for a snag or 2
