No mention of the mythical Valente. Is this proof he doesn’t exist?

Isn’t there any normal ankle injuries anymore? Why are they all Syndesmodis injuries?

I'm not going to jump for joy but this could be a lot worse. The only negative is five of them are probable best 22

I'd argue all. Bewley (bar 1 I believe) and Hill played every game last season when fit.

Anyway 4 weeks for Cerra. On a Freo scale injury scale of 1 to "It's not ideal" where are we coming in here?

Pretty damming cause we have the dirty birds, Brisbane, Essedon and Sydney. We won't win the derby but Brisbane and Sydney will be very tough games.

We can absolutely beat the Eagles. Most vulnerable they've been in ages.

I was worried that Cerra had done his ankle like Young last season and we weren't going to see him again this year.

There's still time...

5 weeks left for Hill to show something... anything..?!

Retirement is pending.... mid season draft is well and truly coming up fast

Question is...When Hamling and Pearce are fit do they both automatically walk back into the side? I can see room for one but not both.

I don’t think the club will force Hill into it. If he approaches the club though I can see them saying yes to him retiring.

It’d be very sad to see Hill retire without playing for us at least one more time. One of my favourite Freo players when up and running. Ultimately though I’m all for what’s best for the list.

The incumbent will be very hard to drop no matter who it happens to be at the time.

Ridiculous depth if they’re all available. Probably better for 190+cm key defenders than any club in the competition.

Hamling In
Pearce I think he’s finished sorry

Both back via the WAFL to get to the required fitness first, and then not automatic inclusions but on the current set up Hamling would replace Chapman and Pearce would replace Hughes. But we’ll no doubt have injuries before then so...

There is an 'R' and two 'E's in "There".

Pearce has another year and Hamling another two years after this on their contracts. They’re going to be picked if they are available, which is the main issue. Pearce at his height and speed is a real point of difference for us, and Hamling is reliable and has the ability to play on a diverse range of players.

The club needs to find some alternative uses for some of our KPDs, but neither of those two appeal to me. Cox, Logue and Chapman on the other hand could work in other positions.

 

[FreoRicci]

Good outcome for Cerra tbh. It was straight away sydnemosis, similar to how Young did it. How’s Darcy? He rolled it quite badly. But kept playing.

If we gave Bennell an extra year after two games and multiple off field incidents, I really cannot see us not offering Alex Pearce another contract.

If he returns in three weeks and plays most of the rest of the season I reckon the extension will be longer than one year and could come before Christmas.

Hamling is 30 in 2023 so age would also come into it, especially if he isn’t playing games.

What’s with our blokes and ankles now?
Are they wearing footy boots or clown shoes

 

[freo for life]

FFS! Hopefully Cerra turns out to be 2 weeks, but will the real Tucker please turn up!

I think it's more likely to be the other way around

No they don’t, come back thru Peel I reckon!
