Outs, where to start?
Shuey, McGovern, Witherden, Cripps, Ryan

Guessing at some of the other injuries
Darling
Chesser

Ins
Culley, Edwards, Hough, Petrucelle, Winder
Jamieson to be rushed back if Darling is injured
Clark to come in for Chesser
 
Wow, 6-7 changes incoming, absolute carnage.

I’d like to see Hough, Culley, Petch, Edwards and Clark come in.

Yeo, only if he’s fit, too.

Hewett into the starting 22.

Not sure Foley can play due to his WAFL suspension
 
Injury changes will happen.

A change that stood out for me over last two games, in particular, we cannot have Gaff and Sheed in the midfield.

Both single sided, plodders who,cannot stick tackles and cannot run out of sight on a dark night.

It has to be one or the other as far as I am concerned.

We can absolutely play them both there, and at the same time. Then next year switch them out for Harley Reid.

Negative nancy, or just the messinger about to be shot? but just caught scoey for 2 minutes on discord due to some backchat shenanigans.
He said WCE had more than advertised, 6 or 7, which it looks like simmo confirmed.
He said 2 names.
Chess and Oscar, that marking knee grab contest may have been more than grass burn.I guess we'll see if its playable niggle.
 
Today‘s injuries are hard to swallow, but the good news is at least this year we still have players to bring in for them.

This time last year we were reaching for WAFL top ups!
Any injuries are horrible but silver lining for me is we were never contending this year any way and most of the injuries are to older players that won't be here for our next tilt, we are really going to see alot of games into younger players now. Should fast track some of their development just by purely pumping games into them
 
Culley, Hough and HEdwards should be obvious locks for Shuey, Witho and Gov. After that... Petch for Cripps and Clark on form, others would depend on how bad Ryan is and who the other injuries are I guess. Not sure on Yeo... hard call to play him in the WAFL in the circumstances.
 
Going from saying saying we will 6-7, I'm saying 7 and these 7 look like the injured ones

Outs:
Shuey, Gov, Cripps, Witherden, Ryan, Chesser, Allen.

Ins: Hard to find like for like and we are probably again in a position of playing whoever might be fit. Edwards, Clark , Culley, XON, Petch will be first ones back. No point rushing Yeo back.

With those outs and the bigger names being long term it is an enforced rebuild and seeing if the Clarks, Culleys, and Chessers can concoct clearances or contracts cut.
 
Would love Yeo back next week but we shouldn’t be repeating the mistakes of 2022 again. Get him a couple WAFL games. Bring in Culley/Clark and let them know that they got a few weeks to make than inside spot their own
