Perth will give this game a good shake. If they can get their noses in front and not fade away like last week.

Aussie I'd like to think so mate and I reckon we will be in it for a while, the extra two days should help but I see EP getting up in the end. Happy to be proved wrong and will still be supporting the team on Saturday.

We'll get our arse kicked!!!

Gee i find myself in unfamiliar territory here,i agree with you.

That lineup smacks of desperation on behalf of the coach.
Wasnt it he who played Risol forward,back and in the ruck,regardless of whether he was shadowing Notte or not it was a bad move!

I didnt understand Ugle last week and i dont understand Risol this week.
We lack height so what does einstein do,drops a tall!!
Now if O'Sullivan was in the 2's this week i could understand it,maybe this coach has his pet players?

Percy certainly got it right when he said we are not a fit team and we havent been for the 4 years Humpty Dumpty has had us.

Still a 100 point flogging awaits and a guarentee of another season for the coach pending no doubt!

McMahon is going to have to change his view on playing talls tomorrow.
They will have Lycett, Josh Smith, McKiness, Johnson and Sinclair all playing on the ball or up forward. Astonishing if Risol has been dropped. Busher is out injured so there goes another tall. We will need J Morton, Billings, Kane and Risol all in defence. Either Houghton or Borrett to assist Eyres in the ruck. The good news is it looks like Cale Morton and Ugle are back.
Keast also back to hopefully tag Lee.

30+ I'm over it finally after all these years of trying to be optimistic.
I have picked EP to win and not the DEES like I do regardless.
This club needs a clean out and I don't mean players!!!!!!!

The players better bring lube coz it will get ugly. We'll be shot by quarter time. Not a great side picked. Even our talls are small. Not 1 tall forward. Their talls wil be licking their lips

Welcome aboard Forever. Now we are on the same page!

A very strong EP side .. lots of talls who can play.
I noticed that Stack, Kalajic, Richardson, and Wellburn are also named in the Ressies which suggests that Cale Morton, Brad Keast, Blake Borrett, Keiran Hug and Joel Leeson will play.
Looks like the policy of playing only one ruckman has finally gone out the door with both Borrett and Houghton likely to play to support Eyres although one of them may take up a key forward role to replace Busher.
Gee, Risol must have done something very wrong to be dropped.

I hope I'm wrong but the way we have been playing I think that we will get murdered. Agree 30+, a 100 plus point drubbing well on the cards.

Thats the problem Smokey we require talls and the best we can muster is Houghton and Borrett(who's he i hear people asking).
Those 2 are barely going to have the oppsition worried!
This is 1 small part of the bigger problem within the club.
Genuine lack of key personel.

For whatever reason the coach doesnt rate talls and i have a theory on this(tongue in cheek of course).
The coach was a tall and a ruckman was he not and not a very good one at that and thus struggled to get a league game and there you have at.
He now suffers from tall man syndrome!!(opposite of small man),he selects talls that have the talent equal to or less than he had!
