TOPIC:

Lucky we has SF this week to break our 2 game losing streak. Be nice heading into the bye 4-4 and still in the hunt. 

Probably rest English, Schoenfeld, Dixon, Chalmers and Murdock this week- they’ve got bigger fish to fry.

Hopefully decent weather and a big crowd.

Love it!!  

Sounds like Dixon and Davies will play Monday.....considering English played Sat, next match is Monday, could play perhaps,listed as 1 week......Chalmers back after the bye.....as for SF.....yep reckon KC is on the money there......bit conservative there though with a margin of 45 in EF favour....was kind a  thinking 75+ TBH......go big or go home I reckon will be  Bill's mantra.....

If English is concussion then I’m pretty sure the WAFL has the 12 day policy meaning he’d miss, Freezin.

Is this the last Derby at Moss Street before the ground gets levelled for the revamp? And is it true you are going to WACA?

Probably Bazza -  It is all meant to be coming down at the end of the season. Not sure about the WACA - seems a bit out of the way. Maybe our old home ground (though a dump itself) or posh Claremont oval could be used. 

It’ll be hard to foster a team/clubhouse/home relationship for the players when they are in no man’s land.  Still, it’s necessary and at this point they don’t seem to have a huge amount of camaraderie anyway.
 

Maybe the showgrounds is an option, not too far up Stirling Hwy, Claremont used it during their recon.

The obvious choice should be Freo oval given the historic links and just a few clicks down the road. Would be good for Souths club and bar with a game their each weekend plus hosting both derby's for a couple of seasons.

Perhaps a change of scenery 58 will galvanize that change in camaraderie  and most importantly a change in success.....

As for the game, EF once again look competitive on paper....need to minimize these 25 minute fade outs.....SF are a class side, with good forwards, mids, defenders, obviously Parker not playing helps EF more then SF...Ninyette when at Perth used to be a handful for EF, can see nothing different now in SF colours....be interesting to see who EF have on their bench.....McGuire surely for height or maybe Bailey or Teakle comes in.....would like to see Cody Smith debut.....decent height/ weight add some midfield grunt.....as for the other 2 perhaps Tucker and Tassone.....though if Jnr got a decent run up front, then Ah Chee may get the nod.....

Might as well bring Cody Smith in here- let him ease his way into League footy
