Wowee, I guess that's why he's a SuperCoach?!?!?!


WA State Squad: Brayden Ainsworth, Corey Byrne, Fraser McInnes (Perth) Blair Bell, Ben Hancock, Tyrone Thorne (Peel Thunder) Aaron Black (West Perth) Tom Blechynden, Jake Florenca, Chad Pearson, Noah Strom (South Fremantle) Hamish Brayshaw, Scott Jones, Jacob Msando (East Perth) Lachlan Delahunty, Angus Dewar, Stefan Giro, Chad Harris, Leigh Kitchin, Ben Sokol (Subiaco) Cameron Eardley, Matthew Jupp, Jono Marsh, Brynn Teakle (East Fremantle) Sam Fisher, Jesse Turner (Swan Districts) Zac Guadagnin, Tyler Keitel, Keegan Knott, Luke Meadows, Noah Pegoraro (West Perth) Alex Manuel, Lachlan Martinis, Declan Mountford, Bailey Rogers (Claremont)

WTF does Sinclair have to do to be in the squad? Close to BOG on Saturday and one of WA's best in the last state game.

Yeah, that's nutz too

Folk have often wondered why Bolton has not been given a chance at AFL and like it or not there is one coaches opinion of his game, he may right but ......... .

There is always contentious selections or non selections and this squad is no different. The picks from EP are fair from my view point.

Like I said before, Shepard's never been a real WAFL coach so wouldn't have a clue. Jye is out this week on H & S protocols but was one of CL best against Joondy last week. Jye was on Collingwoods list I think but may not have played a senior game for them. He's a dual Sandover medalist and still in the top 10 players in the comp imho.

Does anybody know what time the State game is being played on Sunday?  I have had a trawl around on the WAFL site and been unable to find any information. It is apparently at Optus stadium so it may be the curtain raiser for the Eagles game at 3.20pm. The other thing is whether people can just buy tickets for this game or do they have to also purchase a seat for the AFL game? I don't get the West so maybe there is more information there. Anybody?

I think I heard it is starting at 12 noon? It got a very quick mention on The Game on 7 yesterday.

SS Bolton racked up 51 disposals apparently.
But watching a replay his effective disposals were at about 33%.
Lots of turnovers from disposals easy 1/2s.
All he does really is run.
Not sure he should be in the squad to be honest.
Just IMHO.

All he does is run? Nothing more? Who would you have in the squad if you had to choose between Bolton or Brayden Ainsworth DF?

TOO it's a no brainer that Bolton should be included, he is a proven big game player, obviously the worlds greatest Coach has a prickle up his over rated arse about him. I'd say include Bolton and sack the coach and selectors.

Shit that’s an easy one. No way Ainsworth is worthy of a state guernsey. Bolton has a big impact on score involvements and is a proven goal kicker himself. Ainsworth has practically zero and is a poor kick, kicking the footy is one of Bolton’s strengths.

With a player of his skills and abilities clearly something has gone on that has not been spoken about. I wonder if he missed training or was not prepared to commit to something and that is why he missed out.
