I get a feeling Clarry is going to play a big one this Saturday. Can see an incline in his energy/fitness, but just as importantly, I think that gammy hand of his is healing. At the very least, I believe he’s put the worst behind him for a long time. 
 

 

I hope he’s even better on Sunday

We can’t be risking Gawn now if he isn’t 95%, I’d rather play without him this week if it means he is better for it for the remainder of the season. If it hypothetically costs us finals so be it, it’s about more than this year anyway and if one game is the difference we probably weren’t going to be a contender anyway.

BUT the medical team is handling our list well. When did we have a list with so few injuries?

 

Gawny will play..

Name	Injury	Expected Return
Max Gawn	Ankle	Test
Lachie Hunter	Calf	1 week
Charlie Spargo	Achilles	Season
Christian Petracca	Spleen	Indefinite

I liked how Goody finished the presser.

“ Fremantle haven’t see our best and it’s time to put that on show”

Sounds like a shtty flight back to Freo after the Hawthorn game, advantage Melbourne :-) https://www.news.com.au/travel/travel-updates/incidents/glaring-neglect-national-jet-express-staff-forced-to-scoop-toilet-waste-manually-on-flight-carrying-freemantle-dockers-afl-players/news-story/874e4a0f0e5f46d102062a02055ad832

It really annoys me that we've let this nothing club have the wood over us. 

It's time to put an end to it.

I’m putting it down to the AFL making us play them around ‘peak loading period’

They’ve won the last 2, but wouldn’t necessarily say they’ve got the wood over us. They haven’t beaten us at Optus Stadium yet…

They beat us last year when they were hot garbage. I am sick of them stealing our players and then beating us.

Lets beat Freo and show them all the WA talent they passed on in the draft:

• Kozzi (they has 3 chances to draft him)
• Rivers
• Tholstrop
• JVR
• McVee

These guys have been among our best in the last few weeks and are the best WA youth running around.  Did I miss any?

I comfort myself in the knowledge that we got Jeff White from them, Langdon, and they effectively gave us Steven May for nothing given what Hogan gave them. And I totally agree, it's high time we gave them a belting.

Or a barbed wire suppository 

I would be happy with an unchanged lineup if Gawn is still underdone

Petty/van Rooyen will be a good matchup vs Jackson

I kinda wanna see us name Max on the extended bench tonight.

Would make a great sub. Real impact player.

Except that you'd want to sub him on 10 minutes into the first quarter.

Who do we think would take being sub better; Gawn or May?

Send both of them an email and check the laptop 3 days later.

One thing to consider is that Darcy and Jackson are a big step up from that Essendrug rat tail. 

I think Draper and Darcy are quite close, Darcy useless outside stoppage — Jackson slightly better around ground but tbh I think it’s all about combatting them as separate entities! Like Binman said, Petty for Darcy & JVR for Jackson..

 

but.. big MAX will be there.. I can feel it 😛 

Get stuck in and have a go!
