Prediction Changes Round 20 vs. West Coast

[332docker]

Simpson

 

[Piggy Smalls]

Duffield suggested that Pearce out is more of a minor setback than lights-out for Freo's final campaign - I hope he's right, Pearce is immensely important. Key is Draper and/or Davies continuing to build and do their job - I imagine Cox takes the biggest defender each week now?

I'd prefer if he took the biggest forward

Match up for Waterman? Need someone with pace who can defend.
Options Chapman, Walker, Wagner Clark. Wagner might not be big enough. Clark better value in usual role.

It's likely one of draper or cox

The other takes Allen

Leaves Ryan on Williams

bugger

 

[Footskill]

Think it was when he had to stretch for that mark

I'm glad I wasn't drinking ANY form of liquid when I came across this abomination, I would have sprayed it all over my computer screen hahaha.

I think the men in white coats might come a-calling to have me committed the amount of insane laughing I've done since!

Nice job

 

[anchor man]

I would think that with Walters going out that Emmett would fill the role.
Not sure Simpson is quite ready.

 

[Spirit Level]

Emmett in has the added advantage of being a little sh*t and getting under their skin.

 

[Taylor]

I'd be content with adding another mid in Walter's place and rotating more through the middle, especially if WC plans to play a lock down on some key players - and then allowing us to mix them up.

I expect WC to bring the highest effort for the rest of the year this weekend, they'll try and run us off our feet. May as well bring in the extra run ourselves too.

 

[malpaso]

Bring Emmett in and send him to Harley..

 

[FreoGirl]

it's a bit of a worry that the pre-match game has been moved because of the Optus surface not being up to scratch..

 

[malpaso]

Maybe Hughes would be good to bring in, push JOM forward, Aish in the middle/wing ? Hughes is quite versatile and god forbid anything happens to Cox/Draper/Ryan

Unfortunately also has the disadvantage of being shit

 

[Taylor]

Bring in Nathan O'Driscoll to play wing/fwd and create havoc with long kicks at goal

 

[Kram]

People wanted to sack Walters but when the likes of Emmett are the replacement..

I don’t mind this.

I don’t think the match committee will be wanting Emmett to be delivering the ball inside 50, which has been part of Walters’s role.

And I don’t think they’ll bring in Simpson for this one.

Or Banners goes forward and Aish comes in with a shuffle of roles.

Or Brodie?

Hughes is done, I still have bad memories of Reid marking over him in the last derby.

 

[JammoMonty]

I was lucky enough to be at the derby last year when we flogged them by over 100.

Honestly checked out during that game. It was like a training clinic. End up watching another game on my phone.

I watched it twice because I enjoyed it so much the first time.

 

[The Round House Drunk]

Or Brodie?

Possibly as a sub, but it seems he’s behind Ras and as others have said his card may have been marked, unfortunately.

 

[malpaso]

Eagles are going really tall, we should run them off the park.
