Great to see Yeo back. We have a bye next week, so hopefully Sinclair can come back in after that and Yeo may be able to come back into the league team from 22 May. I wonder whether we should have left Masten out of this game in light of the bye. He missed last week, so that would have given him 3 weeks to recover. I don't want him playing on one leg all the time.

No Peel side but outs,
B. Banfield, B. Bell, B. Bewley, C. Blakely, J. Ewing, S. Giro, B. Hancock, L. Henry, B. Howlett, B. Lake, B. Lawler, L. Meek, J. Merrett, N. Odriscoll, J. Pina, M. Randall, W. Schofield, S. Sturt, T.Thorne, J. Treacy, L. Valente, J. Western

Not so sure about that.

Massive Peel players out if there is any truth in that list. I wonder if there is a double jeopardy rule for salary cap breaches and Ditchy is busy stuffing the brown paper bags? Might see a few ex Peel/Pinjarra boys running around. 

Would expect them to play.
Not sure the WAFL know what's going on.

But the eagles hurt PFC and play against us. That’s why I don’t get it. I reckon you guys may be in bubbles if you can’t see that.



 

Well if cannot get it STT you should change your name to FTT.....Failed The Test
 

We must win this game tomorrow. Peel will not look this weak on paper all season. Having said that they still have some very dangerous players, especially Bell and Hit Man Treacy up forward. Gibbo will really have his hands full with either of those. Also Schofield, Howlett etc but hopefully they will fall away after the top dozen or so. I take it Matt Rogers will be captain tomorrow with both of our captains out injured.
I’ve got my doubts that Masten will play and I expect Jy Clark to come in. Agree with Ted about Quill and Browne, not sure how those changes strengthen the side.
 

Peel side has been named.
There are 9 changes from last week.
With some significant names.
B. Banfield, C. Blakely, S. Giro, L. Henry, B. Lawler, L. Meek, S. Sturt, J. Treacy, J. Western

Treacy is named in a forward pocket. I think the "outs" is a mistake. They have a very strong full forward line, with Treacy, Bell and Lawler. Also a strong centreline with Merrett, Howlett and Bewley. Then there's Hancock, O'Driscoll, Schofield and Pina. Their midfield looks a bit thin, but they have a decent amount a talent and plenty of scoring power. Hopefully, being forced to make 7-8 changes in a week will unsettle them, as well as bringing in a swathe of very average players. We of course are also depleted, on top of some seemingly strange selections, so it could be quite even. 

One good out is Meek.
He was outstanding for them last week.

According to the WAFL website this week's game is broadcast on Front Row Screens.
Does anybody know how you pick up the telecast.

Looks like you pick it up from the Front Row Screens Facebook page.
Hopefully it is being done.
Link not there yet.

A  good effort to come from so far back and almost snatch it, BUT, you cannot give a team a 5 or 6 goal start,
Pleasing aspect was that Busher got himself into the game up forward without having to be sent down back, Maybe a sign of things to come. And Cary did well for 4 goals, Stubbs a solid game up forward.
Oh how we missed the grunt of Brady Grey through the midfield and Sinclair's steadiness down back.  
In the ressies a good win and very good efforts from Yeo coming back from injury and McPartland hitting back after being dropped. And Brodie Gray who has been knocking on the door for a league game, banged it wide open today with 28 touches.
Other than the bad start it was a good effort. Oh how those long term injuries to key players are costing us.
