Fair enough. I was watching the stream on my mobile phone and was very had to see going from very dark shadow to bright sunshine. Seemed like a straight forward mark that he got two hands to and dropped.

He was far from awful. Had some scratchy moments for sure but looked a pilar of strength in the backline in that last quarter. He and Hughes chopped off about 7 i50 entries. Subiaco seemed to keep getting the ball i50 and it was Peel defence that kept them in the game. For Peel hardly went forward from about 8-9mins into that last quarter.
Cant bend down for a ground ball, back injury has finished him, needs to retire at end of year
Voss is a mile ahead as next player in
He was ok in the last. The rest if the game he was too slow to react or got caught often and looked a bit at sea. While I respect your opinion, you are kidding yourself on this one
In your opinion do you think he needs another WAFL game? I missed bits and pieces of the first quarter so won’t go against your call. I was more referring to last quarter. He did run out the game with some confidence building 1v1 wins.
I see some merit in giving another game for Davies against lesser opposition and also a game for Cox to build into AFL at AFL.

I’ve had that same back injury that Tabs has had and tbh I think my AFLW career is finished too. Bending over is scary business after that type of injury.
Cox will be in the AFL side next game, only in the WAFL to increase the minutes in his legs. Not really in doubt.
Peel Thunder remans in top spot on the ladder despite a shock six-point loss to seventh-placed Subiaco.
Midfielder Will Brodie put his name in the ring for a senior call-up with a prolific 34-disposal, seven-clearance and eight-mark outing.
Karl Worner responded to his omission from the senior side with a commanding 29 touches and five marks, while Neil Erasmus could also be in line for a recall after his 27-disposal, 10-clearance effort.

Who writes this stuff? Happy that Brodie and Ras performed well but did the author miss the part where our starting midfield just went head to head with Sydneys and walked away with the choccies?

Ok due to sad reacts I just want to clarify that I was kidding about my AFLW career. The girls would be better off fielding a nubbin.

I'm sure you'd get a kick at West Coast these days but I'm sure you have better taste.
I was hoping you were Emma O'Driscoll
I am sad about the back injury - back injuries can be so ruinous to life generally.

You missed the whole second half of the article after the photo;afl.com.au
was wanting them to say how Cox went
Ethan Hughes was a brick wall in defence, taking 13 marks along with his 23 disposals, and Liam Reidy dominated proceedings in the ruck with a game-high 44 hitouts and five tackles.
Key forwards Matt Taberner (two goals, seven marks) and Brennan Cox (18 disposals, eight marks) fired, while young midfielder Ethan Stanley (20 disposals, two clearances) and untried foreard Jack Delean (one goal) also played their part.

Yeah it's awesome to have these guys all playing well as depth. We have a list that can cover all positions.
I wish people didn’t dislike Hughes so much. He’s clearly improved his craft at Peel, and can only be the best possible version of himself and nobody else.

How’d Stanley go. Stats looked OK, except the donut for tackles.

I like Hughes. He is a hard as nails defender. But he lacks attacking instincts. Chapman is just far more dynamic in Hughes position.

That was his worst game in forever, was even noticeably annoyed at himself for continually missing kicks. Even more remarkable we won really coz I would have sworn he'd need to have a blinder to cover for Pearce but it was hard to know Draper was going to turn into prime McPharlin for the game...
How good was Draper. That after a real sloppy game at Peel. Obviously got a rev up from coaching staff and stepped up big time. Cemented his spot till APearce is back.

Davies out before him. I think both Cox and Pearce back before he's dropped
Sorry, you are 100% correct.
