I make that now from 20 odd games we have only won 2 with a draw thrown in against WART!

BH did you go to the game?

Carey reported for striking incident some 70metres off the ball reported by ump standing almost alongside the incident (no footage) has gone straight to tribunal

Cary didn't even play in the league game Gobione, Daniels got reported however. Did you mean the reserves game?

Thanks just saw the WAFL website and found out. Cary was reported in the reserves game

I was quite perplexed that Cary and Faulkner played ressies. If they are in our best 22 which they are then it's a given that they play when available! Especially Cary with Houghton out! I don't care if 22 blokes got the job done the week before,you make the hard call and play em. The thinking that they played ressies because they were coming back from suspension and injury makes no sense as Elari and Blakely came straight in off longer layoffs.
They'll be in this week(as long as Cary gets off) but it's a 6 day break for them against the best team in the comp.
a few more changes expected also.

MD whilst no-one can doubt the commitment and work rate of Faulkner what do you think of his disposal by hand and foot? With respect to Blakely one would presume that because of the nature of Blakely's injury he would have been able to maintain his fitness levels albeit not necessarily match fit.

Whilst it is disappointing that we have had some quarters which have not been great I think we will bounce back on Saturday. Of course it won't be easy against Subiaco, but we shall see the boys bounce back.

Noted you were missing from the Showgrounds yesterday 42 ..you missed a great afternoon's footy 6.23 from the Colts to completely kick themselves out of it and after being up 5 goals to 2 in the Ressies we gave up 17 of the next 18 goals and that on top of allowing C to kick 7 unanswered goals in 20 minutes in the League which proved the difference in the end!

Give me Faulkner ahead of McKay any day!

Why was Houghgon an out on Saturday?
Not sure Blakely,Cary,Nuich and Houghton can all play in the same team. If Houghton is fit might be an idea to give Nuich a rest.
Good to see Jukes get 3 on the weekend.
My mail is Banfield will definitely play this week,most likely ressies.

Did you see the league game in Mt Barker? If yes, who were our best? Also, exactly what was Daniels reported for?
