Will27 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 (edited) In other news, strong mail that Lews Jetta wants to go to WC (sorry boys). Yeah, seems like jetta will go and he is a big loss. He is doing the classic, 'wait till the season ends to announce things'. But the fact Sydney has gone super quiet about it all says a lot too. How do you think he will fit in at West coast? How will they use him? Reckon as an outside runner, he would love Domain Stadium. I still like him on a wing or maybe turn him into a running half back. WC have an excess of half back flankers so probably on a wing. Keep Gaff on the other wing and use Mastif Masten more through the midfield and half forward.

Will27 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 At least a bit of good news this week for the Swans with Hanners storming home to beat Fyfe by a point in the AFLCA award. Star Swan swoops to pip Fyfe for AFLCA's top player award http://www.afl.com.au/news/2015-09-08/swan-swoops-on-aflca-gong yeah, Ffyfe missing those games helped. What about the Brownlow? Fyfe looked a lock..then from round 13 onwards.... loss of form then injury. Could we see a smokie coming through? I reckon Fyfe probably won't poll after round 12 or 13 and may get pipped at the post. Danger, Pridda, Mitchell (hope not) and Hanners would all be up there I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron19 Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 I wonder if this medical condition existed when he was signed to a long term, extremely rich contract? And if it did was it declared? Hopeful it’s not career ending. I'm sure there is a clause in the contract to anticipate this or similar eventualities. It has been a interesting year in the AFL this 2015 season. Seems each week has its own unique drama. Physiologists are being kept busy this year at Sydney. Get well soon Buddy. Word from Robbo at the Herald Sun is that is to do with his epilepsy. Apparently he had an episode at a Cafe on Friday, was cleared by the docs at hospital and played against the Suns on Saturday. Bit of big effort to get up and about after that. This goes back to when it first came out when he crashed his missus's Jeep last year. I'm still backing Depression as the root cause here.... Like others have said, I wish him a speedy recovery from what ever the problem may be and get on top of it ready to make a comeback next year. I could stand corrected here but I didn't Jonathon Brown have a similar problem a few years ago ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BookMan Posted September 10, 2015 Author Share Posted September 10, 2015 Big finals weekend for the WA posse on here. KhunWill, Ron19, farmerjo, joboss, Whitechristmas, OldCroc My tipping for the first week of finals... West Coast V Hawthorn. I reckon the Weagles will have the edge at home They have confidence and will have the home crowd. Some might say they had a soft draw this year, but I reckon they deserve to be where they are. Both teams have sooo many options for goal who can kick a small bag. I would like to see hawthorn lose and preferably not even make the GF. Freo v Sydney. The Buddy situation has been a welcome relief for SYdney players by diverting attention from them. Sydney, lacking Buddy, Parker, Jack and Nick Smith (?), are rank underdogs and the pressure will be on Freo at home. Sydney can kick 100 points here without Buddy and I am tipping an upset. Bulldogs v Adelaide. This is the tough one of a tough bunch to pick. Still, i like the Bulldogs at the moment. Chimpy is flying down to join the Doggies cheer squad Richmond V North. Which North will turn up? Im backing Rihcmond here, mainly due to their superior midfield. WIth khunWill's favourite, Dustin Martin having a big one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post AlexRRR Posted September 11, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted September 11, 2015 I don't normally advertise my selections in tipping but I'm on holiday with lots of time on my hands..... Hawks.....only because there a hardened finals team, nothing in it and patch all season. Fremantle......rested, strong defence and still smarting from last years GF loss, though I rate the Swans very highly. Bulldogs.....the euphoria of a young vibrant team, reminds me of the Dee's after there 21 year drought of finals football. Tigers....I've been on there bandwagon all season, well coached and ready to make there mark....North should look pretty stupid if they loose this game there not anywhere as good as Freo to have been resting players. To be honest you could flip a coin on every game as this would be the most even finals campaign I've ever known. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ripstanley Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 My tips are Hawthorn This will be a close game Freo but barracking for the Swans WB but Adelaide will be hard to beat Norths because if Richmond win they have the wood over the Swans.

ripstanley Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Confirmed that Pridis is out of tonights game. This from AFL.com West Coast's Brownlow medallist Matt Priddis has been ruled out of tonight's qualifying final with a thigh problem.Meanwhile, Hawk speedster Isaac Smith has defied a sore knee to take his place in the final 22. Rumours circulated around Perth on Friday morning that Priddis was in danger of missing and they proved accurate. Patrick McGinnity has replaced Priddis in the selected side and will start as sub, while Taylor Duryea will wear the green vest for Hawthorn.
