cheers gtr....the only big names missing from our last game was Horsley, Wheeler, Phelan, Joyce and Matera. Of those I can only see Horsley and maybe Joyce coming in.

BC I am in agreement with your coach Ryan and Rioli in the Eagles forward line could be sensational.

they'd be hard to match up on that's for sure but think both would have to lift their output to be successful at AFL level.

Hey guys, just in case there's some confusion, the market posted earlier in this thread is for the premiership winner not this weeks game.

The markets for this weeks game normally go up Friday afternoon or Saturday morning.

Thanks Johnny D....

Wheeler will play. Was right to go last week in the 2s but they elected not to risk it.

Horse still with a few boxes to tick.

Thanks LD, Clang is a big in, his versatility will be invaluable, we may need that extra tall down back if Freo decide to rest their giant ruckman at FF. Darcy and Griffin are goal kickers when resting forward. we do need Horse, his leadership is even more vital at finals time, even if we have to interchange him more often it's worth doing. And Adamson is a definite starter?

Not sure on that one. Wasn't aware there was anything wrong with him until I saw it on here. One thing I would say is these days injury management protocols seem to employ moonboots more often than every before, i.e. even just for a bloke with a 'sore foot' during the week who will then go on to play that weekend with no issues. Corey did miss a game a few weeks ago with 'soreness' so perhaps just a niggle that is being managed?

Looking at that extended bench and on the presumption Horse, Clang and Corey are all good to go...who would you leave out? Joyce, Sokol and Halligan would be certain starters but a couple are going to be disappointed.
