Prediction Changes: Round 5 Vs Gold Coast Suns + Pre-match discussion.

The shit Sonny gets on this site is bullshit.
I was at the 13 GF, and he was the only forward winning his possie.
He was the most dangerous, and that included Pavlich, Ballantyne etc.
Sonny is in the greatest ever Freo players, and is excellent to watch live.

[Demons09]

Clark, Driz,Young and Amiss they aren’t boring player's imo.

 

[sumavich]

Wilson back in Perth.
Won't play tomorrow, twitter

Henry was with him right? Right??

 

[sumavich]

Apparently Liam is still there, according to Lachie Reid Ch 10

Reid has said Henry was dropped but the Switta fitness test is keeping him in Adelaide just in case

True but there are 100 other young players in the league in a similar bracket. I like all these guys and I think players like young and Clark would look phenomenal if playing for the likes of Collingwood.
But overall we haven’t got much X factor especially ahead of the ball.
Pick a forward 6 from Adelaide and Fremantle combined as an example?
Not sure id pick a single freo forward TBH.
Rachele. Tex Sonny.
Rankine. Thilthorpe. Fogarty.

Amiss capable of becoming a starter in that 6. Maybe Switta.
No one’s picking banners, Schultz, tabs, etc.

Gollant looked better than all our forwards and he was dropped!!
The scale of the challenge we have in attack is stark.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Feels like I'm missing one more dropping but at this stage it's almost confirmed

Tabs -> Freddy
Henry -> Brodie
Wilson -> Wagner
Noddy -> Johnson or Sturt (the other to sub)

Geez ok. Trying to work out if the three guys that flew over will play.

So three outs so far. Johnson should start, so that makes 2 spots left. 1 spot left for Sub.

 

[Spirit Level]

God I would love if Banfield came out for Sturt.

Johnno to a full game and Hughes goes back to replace Wilson

Wagner sub for some late game run

 

[David Bubb]

 

[BringBackTheAnchor]

wagner to debut

 

[Taylor]

We didn't buy Wagner not to play.

 

[FreoRicci]

Wagner to debut on a local league ground. Such irony and couldn’t be more apt

Well, it's been 10 years in the making - not going to be a quick fix unless they dedicate a whole off season to recruiting and drafting forwards.

 

[Dockeroo]

Sturt won’t be playing will he?

 

[anchor man]

With Wagner playing, and Wilson back in Perth, does that mean that Willo was one of those Longmuir was referring to?

 

[Scham]

wagner to debut

It won't be, but I hope it's as a forward.

 

[Retzlaff]

We’ve been missing some BDE

I'm not so sure JL had any team selection in mind when he said between one and three changes. I think he knew Taberner but wanted to let the squad know there would be other changes depending on form so they better bring the enthusiasm to training.

But he flew three over, so must have had some idea about who was going to be lfet out.

 

[SupermanCapes]

It won't be, but I hope it's as a forward.

JL described him as a defender yesterday sadly.

Michael Walters is one of our best ever players, but he doesn't get selected on form from ten seasons ago. He's at the point of his career where he could slow to a walk so fast it gives him whiplash.

I don't want the AFL career of Michael Walters to end but we are far closer to that than his peak.

 

[Taylor]

But he flew three over, so must have had some idea about who was going to be lfet out.

I think they've brought over a defender, a midfielder and a forward to cover all lines.

They didn't fly Treacy did they? Wouldn't he be the direct replacement for Taberner? I think the three were planned. Best mid from the Peel game gets a seat.

Low-key hate that the push notifications from the Freo app come up on your phone, then you click on it and the app itself isn't updated yet.

Good ole fashion Australian technology hey - computers are just in the way of using more paper.
