Last report I saw was that he was going for scans with best case being bad bruising through to a PCL and worst case ACL, should be something on the website tomorrow, don't expect him to play against the Eagles.

I expect the Ferals to be a much better outfit without so many Eagles, yes that sounds strange, but maybe with 14+ of the 22 being EP boys they will play more like a team and not individuals. We'll have the Cock back, would be interesting if he lines up with Wulf. Still without, Stevo, Madut, Broughton, Waters, Moore and probably Hancock. Looking forward to watching Shepheard progress, he could be a real top shelf FF, has the physique, kicks really well and takes a great contested grab plus can hold his own at ground level. If we can provide the right delivery he could be a handful.

Senior If we had 14 fit eagles last week it might have helped.I think also the midfield was a huge problem last week with Lee not playing this year.
I can't see a east perth/eagle being able to fill his void.

Lee's a massive loss for you guys, always racked up big possessions and hard at the contest.

Hancock gone for the year sorry to say. Got the bad news yesterday that he needs a full reconstruction.

Yeah just read that on the website, ACL tear, terrible luck for him, key player who can play a number of roles.

An opportunity for someone else I guess, will be covered initially by the return of Cockie.

Buddy any news on how long Broughts will be out with his shoulder?

vs East Perth

B: Latham, Jackson, Heal;
HB: Kennedy, Lockyer, Broughton;
C: Robinson, Horsely, Phelan;
HF: Cockie, Wheeler, Delahunty;
F: Twomey, Sheppard, Halligan;
Ruck: Bestry, Kitchen, Mahoney;

Bench from: Bradley, Clark, Clark, Fethers, Joyce, Mckensie, Sokol.

So, Hancock gone, Wood?, Yarren? Ryan?, Reece Bletch (Not even on the list),

Not sure SS haven't heard much. But was a bit surprised when I saw him named in the extended side for tomorrow in the West this morning.

Also cant see the usual team list on the website.
