TOPIC:

Very disappointing about Smith. Some tough decisions to make next year. Loersch, Masten and Smith are worth a combined 32 points. All are very worthwhile recruits, but we need to be as certain as we can be that they can hold up next season. Assuming they want to go on, of course. Anyway, we'll leave that discussion to the end of the season. 

Grey has come in from 4 weeks to 2. McInnes, Masten and Sinclair also listed as 2. Gibba has come in from 3 to "test", along with Nicholas. But if there is any doubt at all over Gibba and Nicholas, we may as well leave them until after the bye.

Good luck out there tomorrow, I dont envy you having to go out to South Geraldton on a shitty wet windy arvo, it's windy and cold on the best of days and little or no cover for opposition punters.

Just sit in the grand stand  - the Joondalup fans may have a few roos loose in the top paddock but they are harmless enough. 

Sit in the grandstand.  You must be joking Ti Em.  That's forbidden up there.

I haven’t felt the need to go up there but I think since they opened their new club rooms they allow opposition supporters up there now. Also underneath the grandstand on the left hand side if you are looking at the ground, it is marked Visitors on the ground, maybe along the fence also but didn’t look. But pretty sure last year it was marked WP members only. It came in handy when the heavens opened just after Regan Clarke kicked that brilliant running goal in the last qtr.

Standing in that sort of rain with an umbrella just wasn’t going to cut it.

Perth supporters got kicked out of the grandstand in last years finals.

With Rogers out I think Eyres will be the captain. He is in the leadership group.

Yep fair call..and though he hasn't got many possessions he has definitely contributed well in the last couple of weeks..loyal servant too

With Rogers out I think it will be Colledge to come back in and possibly Peletier.

Hitchcock for Rogers. They play a similar style. Colledge for Davis. Davis to work on his kick. 

Several people give Davis a hard time for his kicking, but if you look closely Edmonds turns it over more with indecision, slow release and bad choices. 
From last weeks side - for mine I would rest Edmonds and bring in Colledge. 
Give Marshall Jones another run for the suspended Rogers - players often bounce back hard after being dropped. 
Hendo hasn't impressed me and should be next to be sent back down - Nicholas can take his spot if available. If not then Hitchcock.

Never a truer word spoken. I am amazed it has not being picked up before now and smothered an amazing amount too
 

AFL Mid Season Draft done and dusted. Bad luck for several of our players who nominated but something positive for the club as we don't lose anyone.
