Prediction Changes for Round 5 vs Sydney

[Obeanie1]

The swans dont have a forward line to take advantage of gov missing, especially with buddy not playing. Wont make too much of a difference.

Hopefully the Swans mids relax a bit and arent afraid to kick long.

We get cut up when they run through us.

 

[Goroyals22]

Yes some injuries coming out but simmo seems to even say in his presser that even if you play your role well you will miss out for more experienced players…… get those credits in the bank out boys your a certain starter…
Its unbelievable the year we played our best football was 2018 when we played new blokes almost every week - rioli,ryan,waterman,venables,allen, brander even ainsworth and we haven’t repeated that since due to the credits in the bank crew and we havent played remotely well since.

 

[Nuke Fremantle]

4 injured outs, 2-3 other changes.

Reckon Willie and JJ could be out. Willie was pretty banged up and JJ looked off the pace plus had the head taped up.

Can't recall any other incidents. Hough might need a week in the ice bath after playing against men all year so far.

Of course Rioli will be out, he had a massive compression bandage on his thigh at Monday training.

But what's more relevant is that he's a West Coast Eagle who's clearly best 22 and in good form, ala NicNat, McGovern. That's our fate this season. **** 2022.

Wouldn't be surprised if Kennedy is rested, with us having consecutive 6 day breaks.

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

You can always guarantee whoever was our best one week will be out out the next.

 

[Spange]

Swans supporters probably treat us with the same flippant attitude as we do to Port Adelaide given their recent dominance over us.

What all five of them?

Press conference in full

Go to 10.25 and tell me that Simmo doesn’t know full well that JK isn’t playing but wasn’t going to say it

 

[new breed]

Good that B Williams is playing with Dixon in rucking duties ....best we can have right now .

 

[ScottBo]

Some unlucky lads there

 

[Crimson King]

Dropping XON is just rough. Needed an extended run to build on his best game for us. How is he meant to develop like this?

 

[DanWCE]

Lol ****. Milestone game. Get rekt.

 

[Goroyals22]

Thanks for the career best games blokes… out you go…

 

[Shuestar13]

Dropping XON is just rough. Needed an extended run to build on his best game for us.

I agree, probably the one that is most unlucky. I hoped Cripps would get a game in the WAFL. All the others are fine

 

[KERRPOW]

So will Cripps, yeo, shuey and TK all be on managed minutes.

Well this bodes well innit.

 

[KERRPOW]

Gee, imagine having your breakout game only to get dropped a week later.

 

[Crimson King]

Also, according to the WCE site, Rotham named in the starting back 6 while Hough goes out. Blargh.

 

[DickDunn]

We've seen this movie before

 

[kaiserchief13]

Embarrassing by Simpson to drop O'Neill and select Cripps. He is all talk. Learnt nothing from 2021

 

[The_Gambler]

Some unlucky lads there

Bring on the melts!
Nelson out before XON or West surely and Cripps for match play and fitness in WAFL surely. But if they were going to park XON or West at HFF I'm all for Cripps to play that position. But Kelly or Yeo should be at HFF, now we are just down on midfield rotations and will lose the final quarter by 30 points.
Where are the Waterman fan boys, they been silent for a few weeks now?
Always love seeing Simpson put all his eggs in the Kelly/Yeo/Shuey basket

 

[Biggie]

Im annoyed tbh

[WCE_Talk]

I’m sorry, but I can not wait for Adam Simpson to hopefully leave.

How do you drop O’Neill after the performance he had? What’s the point of playing Nelson and even Witherden over Hough?

Things are just so stale and have been for a couple of years now.

I don’t see how bringing in so many under done guys is smart either, especially after a great win lead by some excellent performances from the younger guys. Simmo done this after that Richmond win last year and we ended up finishing the season with 2 wins and 7 losses, I’m sick of him favouring players

Some of the changes I get. The rest make no sense.

Rotham over Hough after doing nothing? Oneil dropped after 24 disposals. Cripps in after no match fitness in months. Get in the bin match committee

 

[KERRPOW]

Im not falling into that trap and tipping us like i did against Freo.

Midfield to go missing, no intensity.
