Far out! We just can't catch a break with injuries at the moment. Out: Garlett, Salem In: JKH, Wagner I think that Kennedy could be a sneaky chance as well but JKH's VFL form of late has been to good to ignore.

The scribe himself, Demonblog, just summed it up perfectly

Very impressed with the games of Stretch and Harmes.

Oliver's hands to Hibberd in the build-up to the final goal though....

6. Viney 5. T.McDonald 4. Gawn 3. Harmes 2. Tyson 1. Pederson

Gutsiest win ever. Everything was going against us: - The six day break - The umpires - Playing away from home - Injuries to Viney, Hannan (early), Garlett and Salem - Playing without our heart and soul: Watts and Jones Go Dees. Anything is possible from here...

Yeah, that was alright I guess..

WHAT A WIN

Pedders you [censored] legend! Tommy Mac kicks his fourth!

Pederson with a big clunk! Goal! Just 10 points with seven minutes left.

McGovern has killed us.

We can't lay a tackle at the moment.

HARMES!!!

Needed that! Thank goodness.

Going to take a massive effort to get up from here. Umpires and injuries beginning to take their toll. But we are extremely capable.

Frost needs to learn when and when not to burst. Cost us that goal.

Brilliant from Harmes there! Goal to ANB

TMac playing like Colin Garland circa 2012 against Essendon

Well done Jake. Viney looked ok on the bench a second ago, to be expected I guess.

I'm not sure If I'm prepared for the possibility of being a top four side yet, even if we win. Some sinister part of me almost misses the days when we played James Sellar at full forward and we'd be relatively satisfied if we stayed within five goals.

Thrilled to see Billy back in the side. I thought he was very unlucky to be dropped after the Richmond loss, but it seems he has righted some wrongs in the VFL and is set for another crack.

Not sure if true, but I've heard a couple bits and pieces through the socials that Mark LeCras might be out for West Coast.

While far from confirmed, here are some reviews of Maynard's VFL performances so far this year. Seems to be tracking very nicely. http://www.aflplayerratings.com.au/Ratings/Player/125130/Corey-MAYNARD

Jones hasn't missed since Round 14, 2012. Let that sink in for a second. Its going to be weird seeing the team run out without him over the next month. On the bright side, its a brilliant test for our younger players, especially Viney to take on the added load in the midfield. Also, this is where the absence of Brayshaw really hurts. I'd love to see him play a full game in the midfield and not as a defensive half forward.
