Sandilands was an embarrassment yesterday.. He is more of a hinderence to Freo now.. He cant take an overhead mark & ground balls are out of the question..even the Freo faithfull bronx cheered him when he did take a mark..

The small amount of the match I watched seem to feature pavlich. He seemed in good nick after his absence. Fantastic for freo to have him back. St kilda gave a reasonable account of themselves. But their skills don't match the uncontested possession game they try to deploy. Both freo and west coast go into the derby coming off wins and will be confident they can win. Freo are the bookies fav at 1.50, west coast at 2.5 are good value.

Hey Terror, you are a bit harsh on Sandilands, don't think he was embarrassing, but there is credence in your assessment. It is unknown what his future is at the moment, he was certainly way off the pace. He will need at least 5 - 6 weeks to show anything, not sure Lyon or the team can wait that long. He is a very motivated person and will give it his absolute best, so we will have to wait and see. I hope he comes good.
