TOPIC:

With WART winning over a very inaccurate Joondy and FART well ahead of the Gummies it is the worst possible outcome for the WAFL.

The Sharks will drop to 6th with the two AFL teams filling 4th & 5th. Also makes Perth's job harder to challenge for a finals spot as they seem more likely than EF at the moment.

If the Eagles continue to stay healthy for the rest of the season WART will continue to have a big AFL contingent and be a real handful for the rest of the comp. The question is if they make finals will their AFL players care enough to make an effort, history shows they have little interest in making any sacrifices for their host club, lets hope nothing changes.

Problem for Peel us,how many Injuries have FREMANTLE got right now?

Barlow and Ballantyne will need cover for a minimum of 3 weeks,so Peel will losd 2 from next week on.Anyone else?

Won't peelmantle have all their players finish their season at the same time as Freo; what a farce the final would be if that happened.

Those two cheating fraud clubs should NOT be allowed to participate in our finals series, they do not work to the same rules as the real WAFL clubs and have no place in our finals, they can play each other for some type of reserves cup or something who cares.

Freo may pull all their players out of Peel like they did last year, but if not there are plenty of Freo players who have qualified for WAFL finals. What is it 4 or 5 WAFL games to qualify? Same for WART although WCE will want WART to go as deep into the finals as they themselves go so their back-ups are playing competitive footy.

it could be tragic in more ways than one with a young EP reserves player taken to hospital with no feeling in his limbs after a tackle...I've not seen any more reports other than the initial story on the west on-line but lets all hope he's ok.

Have felt that EF look the shakiest side in the 5. Was always going to be one winner of either EF or Peel in the unlikely event of a draw. WP didn’t do us any favours. It's a long shot but if we keep our end of the bargain up starting next week against Peel/Freo reserves then we put the pressure on and ask some questions.

BC the ABC didn't have much more to report in it news. Hopefully everything is okay.

BC, I had to leave after the colts game and know nothing more than what has been reported. Beau is a truely great young man and someone I have known well since he came up from Manji for the development games . To say I am upset is an understatement all I can do as with others is hope that he recovers and gets back to a normal life.

Saw the incident, didn't realise it was Beau until later in the day. Always terrible, but is worse when it is someone you know. Had a little bit to do with Beau a few years ago, and as Grump has said a fantastic young bloke, still has time to stop and have a chat whenever we cross paths. Best wishes to him for a positive outcome.

Thoughts are with the young man, lets hope he makes a full recovery.
