Changes v Saints

Interested to see Scott’s presser tomorrow - he’ll likely indicate if Parish is playing in the VFL.

That’s a big call. This board has seen everything.

No Tex last week was also supposed to help us.

I have zero confidence that we take the points this weekend. Teams smell blood in the water, that’s what Ross will be telling his side. We are ripe for the picking, just like last year.

Don’t forget no Gawn and Petracca before that, think I’d prefer we play everyone at full strength.

Yeah, it almost feels like they expect to win against undermanned opposition then go to water when the heat arrives.

Here’s the thing. Teams will feel confident against us because they know we aren’t great under pressure. It’s almost like giving them an extra player. This is why a win this week would be awesome regardless of what you think of the Saints and where they sit on the ladder. If we can eke out a win, it will be a great win and will give us something to go forward with.

Hopefully our guys are up for the challenge and take the opportunity. Otherwise I guess we can start thinking about next year.

Go Bombers!

Parish won’t be straight IN to the Seniors.
Stop putting him in your Changes.

Not to mention the VFL players would have had adapted training to compensate for the reduced game time

They’ll be fine. Match readiness isn’t going to evaporate over one missed week

Out: sarcastic comments like “out: Bad Attitude in: a bit of spine”

In: More double entendres

I hope I’m wrong but I can’t see them dropping Goldy. They probably want him for the Freo game. If they drop him it’s 1 game in 4 weeks and basically setting him up for failure with lack of continuity.

You must have a strange idea on dynamic.

We had no problem getting the ball, 60 forward entries, and less than half scored from, hardly dynamic.

I would have played 2MP, the only dynamic at times was Caddy.

Forward line needs a huge shakeup and backline needs some brains.

Mids need Parrish and Hobbs and Setterfield

Just sad because we really should be deeply entrenched in the top 4 now.
These two back to back losses were very poor.

Stop watching 80’ martial arts movies. They don’t apply to real life.

Love this. Setterfield must play. Defensive mid, who’ll help us at clearance and brings tackling pressure.
I thought he was one of our best in round 1 against the Hawks which was the last time he played senior and was fit.
Get him in.
