Agree. A second short back up and a trip to Perth may not have been thought of as conducive.

No Darcy for Freo
Hmmm. Don’t think that is good for us. Jackson and Darcy still hadn’t really worked out playing together effectively. Jackson seems at his most dangerous when rucking, getting the clearance and running forward. Brodie will do a lot of tackling/follow up tomorrow. (I hope.)
Really bad idea to make a defender into the sub. Not a lot of versaltility, not really able to act as an impact player as that is not what KPD's do, and he is needed for the entire game in defence.
Out: TMac
In: Francis
Fox the 5th bench player so likely (not guaranteed) to be sub.
Emergencies: Mitchell, Ladhams, Campbell.
Assume at least Ladhams and 1 other would stick around up until the bounce in case of a late out. Though then too late to fly back anyway.

I understand you have never been his biggest fan but ffs what are you basing your opinion on that reflects he is finished ? Or he’s not best 22 ? He hasn’t even played a game at the level. If you are taking a line through the demise of
Ryan O’Keefe ffs let Parker play a few games to at least prove he is done just like O’Keefe’s had the good fortune of doing before being sent packing. I think he might actually deserve that don’t you ? I can tell you one thing and yes I have knocked Parker at times for disposal deficiencies that if as you predict he won’t be back and will finish up with the club going down the track of the way O’keefe was treated they can GAGF because I would be done.

Yeah he hasn't played a game at this level, that's what I am basing it on.
If he was best 22 he would be back, club can spin it all they want , but he dominated the touches in the reserves and they didn't pick him.
If he was still "Luke Parker" they would have pissed Jordon off or Jmac or whomever even Wicks. People can spin it as balance or whatever but nothing to do with it if he is still the star people think he is.
Just my opinion last year he looked slow and his disposal got worse, and seems to be playing out.
I just want the side to win, if he makes us better great, nothing to do with biggest fans, I think he has been a warrior, not hoping he is out, just think Adams right now is an upgrade for instance.
He's been great for the club and well paid for it, if he comes back and plays 100 more games great, if he never plays again so be it.

Yeah, you've got to justify his inclusion i.e. who in current form would Parker replace to make us better. In previous years it would be an easy answer, now it's one (as of this round) that's hard to justify.
Or we could just rant at the club.

Give McClean some periods in the ruck against Jackson banging into his body because although a very good footballer with terrific athleticism heart is not his strong suit.

Reckon Parker will be cherry ripe after three runs and will return next week.
Francis is in pretty decent form, especially with reading flight and making interceptions and can play either end. Right time to select him. Fwiw I think Edwards is not far away from making his debut
Hmmn bit worried by the Umps
(Burgess) Meredith!
