Yeah he needs rest after 3 games. I think you need to GIVE IT A REST.
Can’t wait for brad Ebert’s shank-athon.

The Eagles are playing thee Powerpuff Girls ? Bit unfair isn't it ? After all those three can fly, have super strength and laser vision , can we recruit Princess, Mojo Jojo and Gang Green to help us ?

You got me on a real zinger there!
I'm pretty sure I've stated this previously but I think match conditioning is the lesser issue, more so I think he's forcing and coming back a bit earlier than he should.
The super hard ground would not be kind on ankles and knees, both of which he has glued together.
We all know the great man is as stubborn as an ox.

Nelson or Schofield depending on match-ups. Both have been playing well enough so that I'm confident they will be fine.
Really hope Ryder doesn't play.

This thread title was nothing compared to what we see in the papers. Have you seen the title of Jake Waterman article in the West Australian Larrikin?

One of the Port moderators just posted this:
So the questions are as follows:
1. Ryder or not.
This makes a huge difference to their structure and our response. I am hoping riderless but will back us in to take home the chocolates with or without him. I love the comments from Lycett that it is his job to inflict pain on the opposition. Well my boy, as they sang in the old school yards:
"You and NicNat, Paddy whack, bruise the rider's bones, Eagles will come flying home".
2. Jetta or Not
Do we stick with our balance of talls and smalls down back? If Jetta OK to play, then we go unchanged. If we need to replace Jetta, then options are probably Hutchings, Schofield or Nelson. This week is probably not the week to add Watson while still keeping Petrucelle. Neither Schofield nor Nelson are that great with their disposal but I would probably back in Nelson on his decision making and pace (marginally ahead).
They do not play that tall even when Ryder is playing so worst case to cover their talls is to have Gov and Barrass covering Westhoff and Dixon, and then Hurn on Watts. If we need - Yeo can cover Watts for relief (although prefer to keep him more as a mid resting back).
3. The Optus Effect
Port are not that great at playing wider grounds. We are starting to develop a game plan that works at Burswood so I am expecting us to continue. Petrucelle has had his intro - now it is time to go in confidence. No better message to send to him than you are in again. Expect him to hit the scoreboard with more confidence this week.
4. Tom's Tackle
Tom Cole to be our back to back rising star nomination. Anyone watching Foxtel the last 2 nights would be hearing how better clubs are targeting players that can tackle. Forget other stats, it is tackles that count.
Based on last week, another performance from Tom Cole will see him as a certainty for the nomination. He polled pretty well in AF and SC but head and shoulders the best in the tackling world.
5. 9 A Graders
We even have Paul Roos noticing the change in intensity at the Eagles. He even has us with 9 A Grade players. I expect most people had JK, Yeo and Gov based on last year but Gaff is back to A Grade, Shuey never left being A grade, Hurn is in AA contention and a fit NicNat is synonymous with being A Grade. The start to 2018 by Darling and LeCras has seen them categorised as A Grade. If the latter 2 continue their 2018 form and not get enamored by the positive publicity, then we are on for win number 6,

According to a Kornes retweet, Ryder is in the team on the whiteboard. Has to get through Thursday training then it’s a judgement call on the hardness of the surface. Might be named and a late withdrawal. 50/50.

You've done well sir. Well noted on Tom Cole, he's been huge for us this past fortnight.

No doubt. I was talking about the title. Thought it was meant to be “If I can have half the career he did, I’d be happy”. Not a huge deal I guess.

Individualism vs collectivism. Firstly,the thread title wasn't made on behalf of all men, or against all women, you have no evidence to support that, it is all essentially assumptions. secondly, it is a much more sound argument or statement if you say something along the line of "it is demeaning to me" rather than the entire gender. You are neither qualified nor have the rights to speak on behalf of a whole gender.
Just getting it out there - we are probably not giving Tom Cole enough credit
