Jaded No More 68,976 Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 If Gawn is not 100% he needs to rest. Too important to risk. Just play Weideman or Daw. 3

Icing on corkie for a few days and see how the bleeding goes. Got full 7 days recovery so should be ok. Might just rest Gawn in any event. Unleash Jackson v Eagles and put Majak in as backup ruck. I would have thought Weideman would be picked ahead of Majak, should Gawn not play. 2

Stiff Arm 4,420 Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 Out: Lever, Gawn In: Tommo and Weid Would love to see Bailey Laurie get a couple of games before the season ends. JvR too.
Diamond_Jim 12,773 Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 Majak's rucking at Casey has been first class. If Gawn misses Majak in please 2

Deserves a game in the ones. But if history is anything to go by, then no one will be managed or rested. Only players with an injury are likely to come out
DEE fence 5,054 Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 I love Weid, but from all accounts Majak deserves a go at Ruck if a Ruckman is required, has some highlights against Nic Nat too. 1
In Harmes Way 7,869 Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 I’m sure the boys are looking forward to returning to the scene of last year’s grand final. I wonder if we’ll have the majority of the fans at the game.
Jaded No More 68,976 Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 Trust West Coast to get a heap of players back this week… and still lose

He absolutely hates us, can see it written all over his face when he plays us He's checked out this year. His attitude in all games this year has been absolutely pox. His a shadow of his former self now and I don't expect him to be back to his best again. 2
Lefty 413 Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 Gawn and Lever will be rested. Weideman and Tomlinson will come in.
sisso 2,627 Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 Shuey and Yeo looked cooked, WC would be better off playing WAFL mids
Wodjathefirst 2,671 Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 (edited) On 5/8/2022 at 8:11 PM, deanox said: I've always felt like Lever takes a few weeks to find his groove on any return though, whether it is form, pace of the game or "match fitness" I'm not sure. So it might depend on whether the coaches this his current slow going is lack of fitness or just needing time to bed down the "match fitness". That being said, if he has an actual injury I'm not against a week off resting for anyone the next few weeks; I want to be fully fit for Brisbane late June. I may be wrong here but I thought that Goodwin mentioned in his press conference that Lever got and then played with a corked calf? I could be wrong and don’t mind if someone corrects me.

WERRIDEE 5,638 Posted May 9, 2022 Posted May 9, 2022 I'd play conservative with Gawn and Lever especially against West Coast. The sub will be interesting if Bedford is the sub then that could be 2 weeks without any football. I think they will go with a different sub maybe Chandler and do they go 2 emergencies in away games? Then I'd have Melksham and Dunstan as the emergencies. Melbourne B: Tomlinson, May, Hunt HB: Brayshaw, Petty, Bowey C: Langdon, Petracca, Jordon HF: Neal-Bullen, McDonald, Pickett F: Fritsch, B.Brown, Spargo FOLL: Jackson, Oliver, Viney IC: Rivers, Harmes, Sparrow, Weideman SUB: Chandler EMERG: Melksham, Dunstan, Bedford Casey B: D.Smith, Turner, Buntine HB: McVee, Ellison, Rosman C: Melksham, Dunstan, Baker HF: Chandler, van Rooyen, Bedford F: Moniz-Wakefield, M.Brown, Daw FOLL: Bell, White, Laurie IC: Grey, Edwards, Woewodin, Munro, Dubutant EMERG: Baldi, Johnson, Steele, Milford

Lucifers Hero 40,731 Posted May 10, 2022 Posted May 10, 2022 Elliot Yeo was due to play this week after being out with concussion. He has now gone into covid protocol so won't be available. 1 1

pewpewpew 742 Posted May 10, 2022 Posted May 10, 2022 Are the Eagles tanking already? They must really really want Luke Jackson.
daisycutter 30,021 Posted May 10, 2022 Posted May 10, 2022 i hope the boys take lots of covid precautions whilst over there in the wild west they had a record number of covid +ves today at 12,390
