Sin is quick with a good left foot - this is his opportunity.

He is quick, but I disagree that he has a good left foot. I've seen him butcher his kick so many times.

Yeah I think his manic energy has been great up forward and clearly resulting in goals and goal assists. You have to keep in him forward to start, if Sinn stinks it up you sub him for a Narkle and send DBJ back, but don't lose his presence up there from the get go.

He also works super hard on preventing the opposition defenders don't run out of our 50 easily.

There was one play in particular, I think it was in the 4th quarter, that DBJ absolutely busted a gut and made enough of a contest to a Freo player kicking into the 50 and preventing him from getting a decent kick. He was doing that all game, and it's not always so obvious on TV, but watching live, his workrate really stood out.

Farell while being a wonderful kick zones off his player far too much.
Sinn has the potential to be the better defender and hopefully fill the void of Farell's boot by breaking the lines

Geez a lot pinning on how Sinn goes. Good luck to him
Coz we ain't winning a flag with Narkle

Narkle isn't going to be the difference one way or another about us winning a flag or going out in straight sets but I reckon he offers something. Point is though it would allow DBJ to go back if needed

Yep, we can't afford to be picking Sinn.

Burgoyne back is probably my preference, then DBJ.

 

[Revan11]

I would put Rozee to half back

Honestly EP Sinn hasn’t dominated a regular season game yet at what point is chucking him into a finals series going to be bad for him?

If he plays against Geelong and is smashed apart I don’t see how that helps him or the team

Wouldn’t have beaten Melbourne without him

I’m not saying he’s anymore than the 22-23rd picked but he’s producing at least what Frank Evans is and much more than the cheese

Interesting that in the clubs latest report they state Farrell "is progressing positively and is expected to return to running in the coming days". Although he is still listed as 'season' if hes back running this week then you'd hope that means his season might not be done just yet provided we get to the PF / GF rounds?

If he is already running, then he might well-and-truly be ready to play in the grand final ...

He'd replace J-Mac.
Already improved the side.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Kane's on the road to recovery to being out for the season.

Why would he be running unless there was a chance?

Even if he was medically fit to play in the GF I doubt we would play a guy who hasn't played in 5 weeks off a soft tissue injury.

Carlton however.

Short memory, Hinkley/Rozee.

More reason that we wouldn't do jt

A bit like Collingwood not winning a flag with Frampton.oh wait.

I think he’s more than a sneaky if we made it to the last day.

 

[Revan11]

Surely he might make the PF/GF

 

[gbear]

It would be awesome if Farrell can recover and play in a PF / GF.

 

[It Just Is]

I’m pretty sure the intern writes those injury updates so I’ll hold my excitement for a few weeks

 

[Tibbs]

Maybe we all read it wrong! They meant he is "out for the [Home & Away] Season!"

If it was a complete muscle tear, he won’t be playing this year.

 

[blackdiamond]

If it was a complete muscle tear, he won’t be playing this year.

Is it normal to be running this early after a complete muscle tear, especially if ruled out for the season, like what’s the point?
