Bulldogs will win this with a massive asterisk next to the W. Couldn't seriously take a win in this game and think that you're a better side than the depleted opposition...

From my own experience many years ago, it was a pain in the ass, I couldn't fully extend my arm and found every day tasks like picking up the kettle to be very painful. It won't be a major tear or he wouldn't have attempted training.

They have 5 top 10 players out, its still a very winnable game.

Get the feeling this is now the straw that will break the camels back.
As unbelievable as our system is, no system can fully compensate for a total breakdown in experience and class we're missing across all lines.
No other team gets close to Freo last week assuming they have the commensurate amount of injuries we had (including Syd).
That's including the in game losses as well.
Add to this further spate of injuries and the mental demons for the players will have to subconsciously kick in if the dogs get a hot start.
Win for Jacqui this week if we run them close!!
If we get over the line, says more about the bulldogs than it does about us.
Keen to see us fight it out, but think this one is a bridge to far.
Its not who you play....but when you play them that often defines the season.

The Dogs looked really good last week despite losing. We are completely decimated, and Pendles out, who is the on field coach, who we need with these younger guys, the win has got terribly difficult....

Pendles out is massive. Always feels as if we go on runs with him out there orchestrating, and the opposition kicks goals when he’s off.
I have more faith in our system when he’s out there puppeteering it. Don’t think we win now.
Super intrigued by selection

All I'm hoping for out of this game now is Nick to get 40 and kick 3.
WARNING! Conspiracy theory incoming - They might be trying to time his 400th for the Hawks game. We'll need all the motivation & inspiration we can get to beat those bastards. Might as well rest him now in a game where we are decimated anyway.

Floreat Pica, Bitch!
If our midfield was slow with both Pendles and Mitchell in, it’s going to be ****ing lightning now!
Markov to play half-back and Crisp full-time mid with Nick and Harrison, maybe Lippa?

So 4 changes from last week. Do we even have 4 players to pick from that are fit.
Oh we do have Johnson who is struggling big time in the VFL.

Trying to think who would be available for VFL.
TJ, Dim, Allan, Parker.
that's it?
Probably lose Long & hutch in MSD as well.

Geez, it’s making it tough now!
The coaches will certainly earn their money this week if they can get us over the line.

What's the story with DeMattia? Is he available to debut?

Parker could very easily retain his spot in seniors. Was essentially on track for 20+ possessions on debut…?

Yup i agree.Parker could very easily retain his spot in seniors. Was essentially on track for 20+ possessions on debut…?
I was purely looking at it from the team posted earlier (which had 6 changes to it).
My only concern with Parker is tank. Suspect he couldn't run out a full game at AFL intensity at present.
Will depend on who is available on whether either Parker or Allan hold their spots.
