I think everyone would take a 6 and 5 start to the season if we can get over the line here.
Improvement to come from where?
Taking our shots. Putting the peddle on if we have them by the scruff.
Florio (a good player taking the next step up - must improve his meanness and attack on the ball).
Sinclair has some questionmarks. Houghts or Ransted?
Probably need Leyendeckers if Murray has gone (hope he hasn’t). I did see Murray watching the Ressies match in team regalia though and he said he would be playing ressies next week.
I have been told we only had one on the bench in the last quater again. Can anyone confirm this?
Don’t think any of our small brigade can be dropped to make way for what sounds like a club favorite Hug, or Manuel. Richardson must be close.
Think Chance gives us some leadership.
Moody had a dissapointing week and hopefully will return to form.
First time I have see Risol beaten all year.
Eyer’s did all he could by him self.
McInnes needs to start to play a bit meaner like Tunbridge.
Would like to hear the song again.
Would love to see lovers and haters of the club make the trip.
It might be time to rest Boyle and Sinclair. This is Boyles first full season after a couple of injury interrupted seasons (last year he played a couple of games at Carlisle C3 ammos) so he might be getting sore and tired. I think Sinclair is in the same boat, as said earlier Sinclair straight from colts they do hit harder in league after all.
They both seem a bit slower now than at the start when they and Perth were going really well.
Interesting suggestion. Both have been impressive this season. Sinclair has had some big jobs and Boyle has been an important link player with his pace through the mid-field and half forward line.
Not sure players these days need a rest as much as previously with the stop start nature of the draw but yeah, both probably have dropped off a bit - like the rest of the team - in the last few weeks. Sinclair got turned inside out by Garlett against Swans.
I just reckon our best 22 is really our only 22 and these two are in it so who would come in from the ressies?
I don’t disagree with you there Dazzler but gee it doesnt say much about our depth does it? when our ressies are sitting pretty on top of the ladder and we struggle to come up with 2 names that can adequately replace 2 mid sized rookies in our league team.
If we thought the East Perth game was going to be a season decider then this Peel game will definately be our last shot at staying in the 4,if we lose this one against Peel and lets face it this oval is not a happy hunting ground for us then i believe the wheels could well and trully start falling off and our season could start to go pear shape!
Simon Donovan is one who immediately springs to mind who has been left out of the side for some time who by all reports has now joined the illustrious list of players who have either walked out on the club or been shown the door. That list growing more and more impressive by the day. When is the penny going to drop?

What were those so-called reports and their source Derek?? Perhaps they are “privileged information” from an unknown source who has no idea of the actual facts. Or, more likely,another fantasy conjured to suit your own personal agenda.

Geezus you are an immature little girl aren’t you John Dawson?
Houghton, Ransted, Sinclair, Johnson, Kane and to rotate two back line position.
The regular four are -Sketcher, Risol, Tedesco and Ash Smith (like it or not/he looks slack but dose have some good finish)
So that’s 9 back line players into 6.
Maybe even have to make the Bush a regular back man until we loose McInnes next year. He is a big body and may have done well staying put on one of those big black and blue players on Sun.
So that’s a possible 10 back line players into 6.
Colledge has some improvement required.
I would say Bateman and Leyendeckers in for this week, Sinclair and Colledge out.
Richardson, Manuel, Hug, Chrimes, for a go soon. I think O’Sullivan looked injured again on Sat. Only saw a lot of blood around his face and hope it is not another concussion.
Florio is a very good player when on song but must show a massive improvement in ferocity. If this isn’t seen soon Richardson, Manuel Hug or Chrimes to take his spot.
Lesson? Another like Florio - Who let me repeat is good but it is time to be better.
Richardson will be a long way off because he hasn’t played for weeks with a shoulder injury. Huggie has played 1 League game and been emergency for plenty.
TFAF I think maybe you should get to the football before 2.10pm occasionally before posting the same crap you do every week on here as you do not seem to know who is even playing in your own team’s ressies!!
Look forward to seeing Johnno, Whitey, Jebus, BTB at the footy on Saturday, wearing his Peel jumper!!!
He is just going to love getting his coach, Cam Shepherd sacked!!!
Just like he did with McMahon.
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I wonder if Demons Den and Whitedm will also be there on Saturday? Perhaps not. It is a long, long way from Wanneroo to Mandurah. He might get confused and lost at Perth Central.
Peel look to fielding a pretty inexperienced team against us this week. None of the usual suspects that terrorise us down there like Kristian Thornton and Brad Holmes.
Absolutely no excuses this week. This a game we should and must win.
Yes it looks like Holmes has been dropped. Thornton must be injured. Hopefully Fremantle will hold Taberner back for sunday, otherwise he will come back in for Peel along with Sheridan. We look to have Collard and Mather coming in. I don’t know much about Collard but Mather is a handy player. We are starting to get a few injuries as well with Reimers and others out.
I agree Dazzler. Absolutely a should/must win game for us. Peel don’t appear to be at full strength but neither do we. We do have a 10/10 record at Bendigo
Reimers out, Leyendekkers and Jacobs named in the Ressies, Boyle rested.
Good to see young Collard get his opportunity. He has been in good form in the Ressies.
Michael Mather back in the side. His form has been very good and he is always a real goer. Chance back from suspension.
My concern is that we appear to be going in with only one ruckman. Our good early form was based around two ruckmen. IMHO McInnes was less than convincing in the ruck last week. He did take some marks around the ground but was less than convincing in the ruck duels. For me, he is very disappointing this year. He does not seem to have stepped up which is something he needs to do soon if he still hopes to become an AFL player. He should be really standing out at WAFL level.
Despite his lean frame Leyendekkers has performed well for us and I believe that we should persevere with him on the ball.
Rumours out of Lathlain saying Murray suspended for remainder of 2013 season? Can anybody confirm this? Some interesting selections for the game, Mather is a solid contributor and deserves his chance. The ruck stocks are of concern. Is Sandilands close? Or Morgan a chance going through the midfield? Should get the win, we need it!!
