Its official, the bye round stinks and we’re glad it’s over. Time to restart the Freo Freight Train and Restump Podcast the latest news in purple shoes.
The bye round probably came at a good time for a few of our momentarily sore soldiers. But other than for those favourable reasons, the bye round can get in the sea!
We’re 10 and 3 going into the back end of the season and we need, as a rule of thumb, a minimum of 15 wins to make the top four. Jojo McDonnell has us winning the next three straight so in his book we’re virtually a monte to make it.
With the tragic loss of Blake Acres
to a hamstring, it seems the battle has been set between Liam Henry and Ethan Hughes
to duel it out for the call up? But with possession being 9/10ths of the law, does Darcy Tucker
trump them both?
To avoid injury, it’s always preferable to put your best foot forward at, rather than on, peel, and that is what Neil Erasmus is doing. He may have to bide his time but he’ll inevitably secure a long-term midfield position.
On the injury front we’ve lost a few troops. Sam Switkowski
is a huge loss, Josh Treacy looks like he’ll miss a few with the ankle, Blake Acres
as mentioned, Nathan Chappy is still a few weeks away and unfortunately it appears Nathan O’Disco has suffered a setback.
The Luke Jackson
talk is heating up! But there is a bigger question than dollars and years. Does he truly fit in at Freo? If he wants to play lead ruck, sadly Freo probably isn’t the place for him…. that said, we’ll happily squeeze him in if we can. The conversations will be interesting.
In what could potentially be described as JL’s textbook display of ‘getting ahead of ourselves’ Jojo McDonnell has locked in Hall Of Famer Matthew Pavlich
to present the winning premiership cup to us at the G in September. The Chief is being a bit more conservative and wants to wait and see if the Clamp is back from Europe.
We unnecessarily give our pointless two cents worth on the De Goey non-scandal, we had a poorly timed Ask Jojo segment and then we bring it home with another Neighbourhood Watch episode.
So, after a week off, it’s time to saddle up, get back on the Restump horse, click play and listen to this 50 minutes of nonsense on your way to Marvel Stadium… through the desert… if your horse has no name…
Ok enough of that rubbish…. the play button is there somewhere if you want it and its not going to click itself!
