He did a good job against Blicavs last week which allowed guys like Luko and Chol to have a free run at it. We need more of that from him tomorrow against West Coast's interceptors, as you say. I have faith in Levi.Don’t let Barrass, McGovern or Hurn intercept mark. That has to be his whole job description.
I don’t care if he doesn’t get a kick, as long as he can crash packs and not let them out mark us defensively.
The ball will be coming in a lot cleaner because Luko will often be involved in the link up. Even if it does come in ugly, we've got Casboult to crash packs now and bring it to ground for our crumbers like Ainsworth, Holman and Rankine. Our forward line is going to function very differently this year and that lowers the need for a guy like Sexton. Having said that, Secco will get his chance at some point throughout the year either through injury or poor formCan’t believe we didn’t go with sexton. He’s the only one that can kick goals of our poor f50 entries
We know there's currently a 50% cap on crowds in Perth but there's a report in the West Australian paper that the Eagles are struggling to even sell 30,000 tickets at the moment. That's great for us! The less West Coast fans in the crowd to influence umpiring decisions, the better. This is obviously the best opportunity we've ever had to beat West Coast in Perth and I think the boys will really relish the opportunity tomorrow by getting our season off to the best possible start. Not only should we win, we should win well and place ourselves comfortably inside the top 8, potentially even the top 4. You could even go as far as to say we should set up a top 4 clash against the Demons next week!
But let's just get the W before we start thinking about that stuff.
