Petty ahead of Brown and Jefferson? Every day of the week.

Everyday...  EVERYDAY ?? 

Tbh honest atm Petty is all over the shop..  brilliant one game....did he even turn up....turned it up on other occasions.   Personally,  and cue the wolves/ jackals/ meerkats.... I think overall he's quite 'average'.   Some will roll out excuses but you wander over that white line you've called yourself as good to go...  and often he isn't.   I get we're bereft of that real KPF..   Roo is good...but he's young....in 3 to 4 ...could be really something.    He Roo  does offer  a chop out to Max... so hes not the real KPF... Goody seems compelled /stuck with Petty.   

Id give Jeffo a crack...   i dont see him as any worse... and might surprise  ( might not )

If Petty...its by reluctant default....and yeah....thats why you pick players eh

Go Dees

Freo have gotten the better of us the last two times, but I'd like to know why, aside from Freo being up and about for an MCG challenge,

In 2022 May went off with concussion at quarter time which threw our structure out the door as Rory Lobb of all people got the better of us.

In 2023 we went small and and forced Lever to play tall against the likes of Amiss, Tracey and Jackson and it backfired as per usual when we've gone in with a small defence.

Other than that, can anyone think what they've had over us from a tactical point of view.

Not tactics - just the ‘L’ word - or intensity of training volume and density. 👊🥩💥

Raining here since early last night. Falls of between 20-50mm locally. Due to clear though 🤞

Great interview, Goodie looks very relaxed which is pleasing. I'm very happy he's our coach!

That first one in 22 was a really out of character Freo performance where they came out in the second half and kept the ball moving like free flowing water. They got some good fortune with it and with May out the damage was tenfold. 

Not expecting this to happen for sure but the message from me would be don't be slow to react if it does.

Roo out with a groin injury according to C7

Felt some minor discomfort in his adductor at training today according to Richo. They expect JvR to be available next week. 

[Jaded No More 68,916]

FFS Roo out and umpire 22 in. Could not be any worse. 

[Dee*ceiving 1,674]

Ouch, that Roo injury is a real low blow...😉

May and Petty were both out in that game. We were very unlucky that night.

[spirit of norm smith 16,460]

JVR out . Key forwards again in crisis.  

 

Might have to bring the BBB back in 

Hopefully no other changes … please no to Billings no no no
