Assuming that we are not in lockdown this week this match is very important for both sides. East Fremantle has lost to Perth 4 times out of the last 5 times they have met including a narrow loss at home in 2020. This match will be a good gauge of where both teams are currently at!

Very true Custy...in all honesty every game this year will be a gauge barometer for success.....the WP game definitely would have increased club confidence if EF had won....Perth have a few key players out, so in all honesty if EF want to play finals these games are must wins....ditto for Perth too....

Hoping to be proved wrong, but don't count on the week 5 fixtures to be proceeding.
Have based that upon the press conference earlier this arvo. Not much positivity from it I'm afraid.

Given all our inclusions this year that indicate we may be on the improvement road, I think we’ll be under the microscope for most of our games.  Certainly, our PFC “friends” will be on the watch out, but I’m sure they’ll all be wishing us the very best.........

Wonder if Jnr will win back his spot after his performance last week during the COVID suspended WP game......

Yep, a bottle of Gentleman Jack might loosen old Dad up. 

Given that no game was played, unless a Chalmers is back from injury or there's been an injury, you'd think the team wouldn't change from WP

Thought Cl reserves team was playing at Moss St on Sat STT, wearing the red n black v EF.

Luke English is an out, which no doubt opens the door for a Murphy or Jnr to come in.....can't see Bailey or Teakle getting a spot on the extended bench...perhaps Tucker comes in allowing Baskerville or Eardley to play in the midfield for English.

Tough ask for EF reserves to win v an ex  Cl laden Perth reserves side....but hopefully EF local youngsters can play like they did v EP reserves side....though Cody Smith and Cam Davidson are outs for the reserves side.....wish EF would update their injury list a tad more often.

 English has been good and will only get better. We still have plenty of run though. Personally I would go with Davies, Murphy, Snadden and Tucker from that 8 man bench.
