TOPIC:

would be lying if I said I was looking forward to this game......Peel in search of a win and EF coming down to Bendigo in search of a win.....thankfully Shauny Mac aint playing!!!

Not too sure what Woosha and Lyon will do with their troops, can't see Brown being risked with Glass and Mackenzie pulling up sore last weekend, not a bad thing hopefully my boy Tyler will get a gig!! Sutcliffe had 5 min of footy v WCE, maybe Lyon will give him a run for EF whilst Freo are having a week off?.....Not too sure where Brad Dick is, but got a feeling he will need a run soon, especially with Lecras out of action for a while.

Of the local boys can't see too many changes other than Young out with his knee.....perhaps ruck with Symonds, Chalwell and MacDougall...though if Clarke plays for Peel I can see big Zac being a key player in this game. Up front will need Perham to be on his game, though I don't think Jack plays well as EF number 1 target up front, hopefully the likes of Duffy and BOB will get an easier run v Peel inexperienced defence. Up back nothing much one can do about Brennan and Ibbo, on paper they should do the business, but on the park both fella's were very poor v SD....especially for AFL listed players.

For me Schofield and Simpson need to come in to add some spark thru the middle, Rock made a good point that EF looked quite slow thru the centre v SD. Perhaps Boyle and Lester-Smith or Tropiano will make way. Howson and Riccardiello kicked a few majors between them against some pretty piss poor SD defenders, not too sure Riccardiello is the answer up front, Howson is probably the better option....especially since he will be kicking a few majors next year for Peel v EF....might as well get a few in now for EF while the going is good.

Both sides need the win, EF always struggle down Peel way and Peel always seem to grow a leg, saying that with so many Freo newbies on board perhaps the Bendigo factor won't be as great this year.....still the likes of Crozier, Faulks, Crichton etc are pretty decent sorts and on song can cause some damage......pity Herring isn't playing for Peel, at least you could count on his opponent having a day out......now the subi boys will spend their weekends pulling their hair out at Messer Herrings on field antics!

Always pick the opposition when you need a win....thus Peel for me....with big Jack and Zac being the difference between both teams!!

This a dangerous game for us. Hate to be 0-2 and then with our nemesis Subi the week after.

Could Brennan & Ibbo play that badly again? Our ruck division really worries me especially with Clark a big chance of playing for Peel.

We tend to struggle against Peel down there. Will be waiting to see who comes in for both sides here before making a selection.

I might have to get down to Chunder Park on Good Friday to actually witness Chalwell's looooonnngggg awaited debut freeze!! Fingers crossed Stavros doesnt let us down at the selection table yet again this week!!

Lyon mentioned on 6PR tonight that Brad Dick will play ressies for us this week and Sutcliffe will play in the league. No mention of Clark playing though???

BH, if Chalwell was at SD mate, he'd be a 50 game player by now!!

If that were the case freeze he would also then finally be a League Premiership Player as well seeing as tho our last flag was only 43 games ago!!
But if Chalwell cant get a game in Old Easts "quality" land of the giants forward line how the hell would he have got a game at Swans before the likes of Geappen, Hansen, Notte, Simpson, Davis et al

considering your coach said it in his coaches report last weekend that SD reserves struggled against the talent laden EF reserves.. I can see why Tyler is stuck playing reserves at EF....any way I never said 50 games of league footy at SD did I BH?.....just said a 50 gamer for SD, just like that ex EF boy in Matty Jukes!!

Yeah those SD players you named are quality acts, I put them in the same ilk as the likes of Garrick Ibbotsen and Jacob Brennan BH!!! .....anyway good luck v CL, hopefully you can round up 3500 bogans in time to bolster the SD v Cl game attendance.....shouldn't be a problem for the most popular WAFL club in the comp to muster? ....hand out a few BHP shares to attract the punters at the gate.....and a voucher for a beer at SD on site offie!....bogans never turn down a free beer do they BH?

now if this team can't beat peel wherever we have to play them then bring on 2014

Well freeze judging by the side Stavros has named above the Tyler anticipation is going to continue for at least another week!!

strono....interesting to see if Howlett does at CHF, when he first arrived he struggled, but after his good year last year hopefully his confidence will allow him to play with freedom of not geting dropped. MacDougall isn't a FF, great to see him back, but it looks like him and Symonds will play FF when resting from their ruck duties. Quite surprised Howson or Riccardiello didn't get a go at FF after kicking 4 and 6 goals in the reserves first up. You gotta reward good performances, bit disappointed one of them hasn't been. Good to see Simpson get a debut though, need some zip thru the midfield.

BH, sad to see no Tyler, quite surprised Brown hasn't been rested....always next week I guess Sheppard, Ibbo and Brennan on the park...jesus fecking christ!!
