Prediction Rd 8 Changes v Tigs Away

[JammoMonty]

No rain in Melbourne on Sunday. It’s not a question of if Freo will win but a question of how much by.

 

[Waterhouzin]

Morning games always worry me though. Don’t have the stats on it but can’t remember the last time I’ve cracked a morning beer to watch the game and woken up bright, chirpy and happy on a Monday !!

Just start with an Irish coffee instead.

These demographics are staggering for both teams. Us because we're still too young to be a serious team. The Tigers because I don't think I've even seen 15 under 50 games.

Be interesting to see how it looks once final teams are announced.

But geez we're still young.

You obviously haven’t been Freo-ing for too long my friend?

We have never ever earned the right to think we can show up for a routine win over anyone in this comp, literally ever.

Round 1 '22 we had 13 and Adelaide had 14 and that was with 22, rather than 23. But yeah, just random clicking on Footywire I can't find any 15's without going back to early GWS.

We still have more with less than 100 games though, staggering

Crazy how experienced our younger guys are though. That 50-99 crew is building nicely.

The continued loss of established role players (and Cerra) over the last 3 years has really set back our progression into a more experienced team, but I think it may deliver a better side in the long run.

Take Melbourne for instance they might have got more out of their time of the top if their bottom 6 or 8 players were better.

Yes losing a few of them hurt us short term but its balanced us out nicely. I agree with you that we look likely to be a better side now.

 

[Fred Ziffel]

I’d prefer to bring Worner over Hughes if Draper doesn’t make it. Same height, and Worner looked good in the one game he played and his rebound is so much more potent

Karl is the same height as Josh Draper ?

 

[s_wd6]

Karl is the same height as Josh Draper ?

Hughes

 

[freo_leo29]

Karl is the same height as Josh Draper ?

Same as Hughes

 

[bruzaar62]

Same as Hughes

Yeah nah-Draper 197 both Hughes and Worner 188cm.
Davies 196(with hat 198)
Murphy handy at 200cm

 

[Fred Ziffel]

Treacy, Jackson, Voss, Amiss up front?

I think Richmond are already going to try and run us off our feet but until I've seen more of Voss taking contested marks instead of just getting his arms up to the ball or him covering a lot of ground, I wouldn't want to railroad our style that much just yet.

Are you sleighting him here ?
Are you implying Pat was making token marking attempts ?

20+ year member but always optimistic.

Thanks for proving me right

Worner is the same height as Hughes...

 

[Taylor]

I think his attempts were writing cheques his current ability couldn't cash, but it was making a contest of it.

This is why Freo just can't afford to just develop talent and then let them leave for draft picks.
We have been rebuilding since 2016 ffs and we still have the majority of our playing group with less than 50 games.

There would not be too many teams with the same list demographic and contending for premierships (either now or historically) and this is why it is bloody important that if we lose someone like Switta at the end of the year - we replace that person with someone with more experience. (Baker). We have the nucleus of the team in place - let's just get games into them and trade in experience from now on.

[Spirit Level]

Good change, hopefully Draper is truely 100%

 

[sumavich]

Strong team no doubt

 

[freodog]

Feel sorry for Voss but would have been too tall in attack if he played.

Gee would want to be sure about Draper's Hamstring following last night's failed attempt to play Rozee
