TOPIC:

With a W last week, pretty hard to change a winning line-up.
The only two forced outs are Faraone (hammy) and Snadden (suspension)?
What ya reckon?

Coogee the WAFL site says that there were no reports in the game.

You can add Tholstrup as an out as well Coogee as he's in Adelaide apparently for an AFL development session. You'd think Will Hickmott will come in after a very good effort in the ressies last week and maybe Hansen would be looked at as a replacement for Faraone since he kicked 3 goals. It's probably too soon to think about Mayo and Borchet but then again, they are both very good players so who knows.

Cook may come in he was named in the best in the ressies and had 9 grabs. 186cm 80kg

Subiaco's Jordan Snadden has accepted a one-match ban with an early guilty plea for engaging in rough conduct against Perth's Harry Quartermaine during the Round 1 match at Mineral Resources Park on Easter Saturday, April 8.

Conduct - Careless
Impact - Medium
Contact - High
Base Sanction - 2 matches
Early Guilty Plea - 1 match (Accepted)

hi bc
the faraone was connor, the backman, so i would think abe or isaac clinch or stergiou?

Cheers Coogee. I think Stergiou was named in the ressies best last week so reckon he could be the one to come in but the others you mentioned would be good replacements as well.

Clinch or Sterg will depend on match ups. East Perth have a couple of very good small/medium forwards so maybe Stergiou will get the nod. Shame about Tholstrup, but we probably wont have him next year anyway as I assume he would be getting plenty of attention from the AFL. Our forward line was quite small last week apart from the resting rucks and Tholstrup so if fine weather it would be good to get an extra tall in, if it's looking wet then bring in a small like Hansen who is a very good player. Should be a very tight contest, we'll need to be switched on from the start, unlike last week.

The chance of rainfall on game day is low. The precipitation looks like happening today and tomorrow. And weather-wise Saturday should be ok. The ground conditions at the various venues might be a bit heavy and slippery.

No great surprises here.
