TOPIC:

The play off for that coveted 6th spot at Leederville happens this weekend.....true test of how good that Subi win was, will be if EF can back it up v EP on Sat with a win.....definitely a confidence booster....hopefully not a complacency booster. 

One would think Eardley comes back in....maybe Boekhorst if fit.....who makes way.....Does it make sense to play Teakle, to allow Strnadica to drift up forward when resting from rucking duties.....Jones will definitely drift forward to stretch EF defence, why not repay EP the same compliment with Strnadica?

Does Marsh rotate through the middle again to go head to head with Robertson? One raging bull v another....not sure how fit Ramsay is, but him being out will definitely hurt EP midfield brigade. EF defence will definitely need to bring their A game again, though on paper Subi's forward line looks more potent then EP....

With no colts game, do some of EF better colts in Williams, Browne, Cripps, Hagan, McMillan and Woewodin get some reserves footy? Currently EF have been playing 7-8 colts eligible boys of late in the reserves, many of them not really come considered good enough to play in EF colts best available 22.....I wonder if EP will league debut young soon to be drafted tall forward in Jye Amiss on Sat? The kid is a dead eye dick on goal and kicked well over 50 goals in the colts I believe....can't see EF doing the same with  there soon to be drafted tall forward in Jack Williams....especially after the performances of Dixon and O'Reilly v Subi..... 

Obviously 6th spot ain't what the EF or EP fans wanted at the start  of the season, but I guess with EF & EP respective injury troubles during the year compared to the likes of a SD and WP....the best possible finish going I guess.

Eardley 's foot may keep him out again . Weather probably different this Saturday so Teakle could well make way for a small - maybe JNR.

Does Marsh rotate through the middle again to go head to head with Robertson? One raging bull v another... Why insult Marsh like that he is a player and wins games for you as opposed to ............... .

What’s the go with Robertson, Grump? He’s been a bit disappointing?? Has Barnard been signed up yet?

I think Freezin is right, the Sharks need to back up the Subi win with another strong performance.

Tim Bockman probably out this weekend too after coming off early against Subiaco with concussion concerns.

Pretty sure Robertson was the catalyst in that EP win over EF last year Grump....so if he has been playing shite of late, only means he is due for a good game sooner rather then later.

Yeah Bockman was the one I was thinking of who in the post match team song wasn't wearing his game kit...on the club injury list it has Boekhorst, Kommer and Eardley as tests......wouldn't mind if EF did a Warner and picked young Josh Browne on the weekend for a league debut.....

Others will say Robertson has been ok but for me he is just a b grade wafl player, he does not do enough and has just not been worth it when others in the Ressies would have should have been a go, but as it has been pointed out I am just a grumpy failed colts trainer so what would I know!

As for Barnard I do not know anything abt his tenure. I think the delay in announcing any decision is damaging for him and his family, the players and the club.

Robertson for a marquee player has been an absolute flop,he had 9 possessions last week,and i hear is always injured,and the treatment of Jeremy Barnard this year,from the non existent recruiting to this latest debacle is disgusting.

robertson has been a big disaapontment.he is not a midfielder and not having a impact.too ill disciplined.a waste of eleven points.

What's the bet Robbo comes out and has a BOG game now....LOL...EF are usually good at playing opposition players, having a lean trot, into form.

Pity there is no colts game, apparently has been saved till the last round of the H&A year for that recruiters colts frenzy where back to back games are all played on the one day at the same venue.
