How is round 2 shaping, seen as though it is only 48hrs away.
Likely changes?
How will South respond to their loss?
Main training night tonight so hopefully the lads with injury concerns get through the main session and others are putting pressure on. Gather it will be a very vibrant night on the track with this challenge lying ahead under lights in Fremantle 7pm. Should we expect a good crowd?

Judging on South Fremantle crowds last year and being a Friday night I reckon if you get 1500 you are going alright.

Should be a good game though with plenty of players from Perth playing well in the reserves last week. Who comes out of the side after a performance like that though?

With Souths height you would think that Christian Eyres comes into the side as another tall. With Bradley Keast being able to perform a tagging role and also find his own football I think he stays. Clem Smith was impressive and has good foot skills coming out of the backline so he stays as well. Brent Edmonds was solid without being spectacular and I would say that he would make way for Eyres to come back in.

Hopefully the Demons can keep up the intensity and pressure that they showed against the Tigers. Too often we have seen Perth come out and put in a great performance only to be insipid the next week.

Momentum is the key!!!!!

Huggy and Matt Welburn could miss out, if Bateman and Cale Morton are available. Hug and Welburn were emergencies last week until the late changes

Kris Miller's 300th!!!!!! A champion of the game and the dog's will be up for a big showing for their veteran

Chance Bateman to play his 250th if he plays, so good reason for Perth to be up and about.

Will Mitch Morton come in after half a game in the ressies and having 21 disposals.
Might be a bit risky but tempting.
I would say Cale Morton for Edmonds and Bateman for Hug. If they are still injured then leave it as it was.

Definitely some big milestones there for both sides.

Mitch Morton would be very tempting Cesspit but after only a half I think he would at least need to play a full game in the reserves before he comes back.

Will be interesting to see when exactly he plays league. Does he play this week in the reserves and then again against the Falcons the week after. Goes hard on the training track for 2 weeks then plays league against Swans. Decisions, decisions.

Does anyone else think we need to bring in Eyres so we have two ruckman and one can rest down forward. Souths are a very tall side. If Cale Morton comes back in that's also another player around the 190cm mark.

Apparently Billings was reported in the reserves on saturday for unduly rough play.
Some things never change.

Billings pffffft
What happened to the no dickheads policy?
Barely a reserves player.
Show this spud the door.
