Strategy Changes and Pre-match discussion (Freo 15/7, MCG 1.45pm)

[Football God]

OK, this is totally off topic but does anyone know how I can buy a 2023 Nike Pies match or training jump for my son’s birthday in November?

As far as I can tell they’ve been sold out from the get-go. Club shop, Rebel, you name it! I’d that normal? Should I expect a re-stocking before finals?

This frustrated dad is grateful for any advice!

Not sure if mentioned since your post but I e-mailed the club asking when jumpers will be re-stocked and they told me they are not re-stocking for the rest of the year. Sold out unfortunately.

Probably best would be to ask your local Rebel or AFL store if any of their other shops have any in stock.

What on earth sort of training are they doing over in Freo!

 

[Piesinmyeyes]

They might have to borrow some players from the mighty WC

I swear some of these journos are useless. If you look at the previous tweet he reports that Jackson has a "bad" injury, then clarifies he meant "back". Jackson then emerges fine minutes later. This and that channel 9 guy that had Mitchell gone with a foot injury the other week.

He was a Weagle - minimal care about Dockers.

, a doubt on Jackson and whoever this Sturt is?

Tough run

Would make quite a victory if they pulled it off

 

[Jafo]

So far going with Cameron and WHE out. Sidey, Bruzzy and McStay in. Trying to figure third out I’d go with (Bianco sub).

We’ve been missing 4-5 most of the season

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

I know

But we have a better list and are better than them so not sure it's relevant to what I was saying?

A damn near full strength Collingwood vs Freo missing quite a few or have a bunch carrying stuff would be quite a win by them at the G

 

[dropbear101]

i'll give you low down.

jackson won't miss. he has been managing an injury since after the bye. has been playing.
there will be something about pearce being injured. basically the same as jackson.

no idea about young and sturt

cox, serong and worner are definitely out.

Oh my...they're dropping like flies in WA.

 

[neilk]

10 yrs service gets him in I think. Even though they seem to phrase it as "more than 10", but I am writing that off to our whimsical website writers.

Thanks for clarifying. BTW, a nice bit of alliteration.

Do flies in WA drop significantly more than in other parts of the world?

eBay an option?

Only XS left but there is a bit of merch available from other sellers.

will miss Saturday's clash against Collingwood at the MCG after pulling up sore this week with an ankle complaint.

Young is among a group of Dockers with fresh concerns ahead of the must-win clash, with a six-day break proving costly to his chances.

NEWS
Medical room: The full AFL injury list, R18
Fremantle must beat the ladder-leading Magpies to keep any chance of playing finals alive, with Young's confirmed loss a significant blow.

The Dockers will already be without key defender Brennan Cox (ankle), while captain Alex Pearce is expected to be available but did not train on Wednesday.


Young has played all 16 games this season and averaged 22.2 disposals and 5.0 rebound 50s, with the 22-year-old among Freo's best against Carlton.

The Dockers could call on half-back recruit Corey Wagner to fill his role against the Magpies after some impressive WAFL form, while mid-season recruit Ethan Stanley is an option.

Just waiting for someone to have died/flied in a marking contest at training.

They are this week.

 

[deano_66]

No Serong, Cox and Young this should be a flogging especially being at the G.

 

[Eric Shin]

Should be a flogging but we’ll scrape in a 10 point win

We’ve got the highest % in the comp. If you want a team that’s been scraping by, that’s port

I reckon we’ll play with Cox, Cameron, McStay and Frampton this week. Frampton is a defender so he can be a taller option down back. As good as Murphy is, his spot could be vulnerable as Frampton is bigger and more versatile. Throughout pre-season they would have trained for this.

Nah.

 

[Jen2310]

If cameron doesn't play, reckon frampton stays in and plays that ruck/forward role.
Dont think freo have enough talls that we need him down back
