[jeemak]

Out - Liberatore injured
In - Murphy

Priddis out as well as no Kennedy is massive .
Schofield out with a hip !!Hmmm so why did they appeal the one game ?

That's three very handy outs, as well as Nic Nat not around either. On our home deck, there's not going to be a better time to get them I'd say.

[always right]

Would like to see Bob up forward.

[Rocket Science]

Priddis also allegedly not on the plane. We are getting them at a good time.

Are we suitably motivated to capitalise on that though, remains the question.

[Remi Moses]

Yep . We need to bring it, regardless of their ommisions

[Yankee Hotel Foxtrot]

If ever West Coast are going to find the motivation to win away from Perth this is the moment. They will be primed to hit hard with their backs being up against the wall.

We need to not give them a sniff and for that to oocur we need to do what we've been unable to do thus far in 2017 and put score on the board from the first quarter.

[jeemak]

For those wanting the published lineup:

Full back D Morris J Roughead J Johannisen
Half back S Biggs E Wood M Suckling
Centreline L Hunter J Macrae R Murphy
Half forward T Dickson J Stringer L Dahlhaus
Full forward B Dale Z Cordy L Picken
Followers T Campbell M Bontempelli T McLean
Interchange M Wallis C Daniel M Honeychurch
J Redpath
Emergencies C Smith F Roberts M Boyd
IN: R. Murphy
OUT: T. Liberatore (cork)

[jeemak]

I would prefer Red at FF over Cordy, but I doubt will continue with the lineup as published for very long anyway.

Happy enough with the change, I'm disappointed for Liberatore that he can't get some continuity post his spell but it is what it is.

[Bulldog Joe]

A cork may explain Libba's lack of impact when needed last week and would make his playing forward more understandable.

Perhaps I just want that to be the case and not just a way of easing him out without creating another media storm.

I'm the same. The only rarionale that makes me think the former is more plausible is that, if its form based wouldn't he need to go back to VFL to tick off the areas he has let himself down in? I mean if he's really been dropped then we'd want him to play this weekend for Footscray.
I guess next week will tell us more. He's either back in the side or he's in the VFL and the same scrutiny is applied to his omission from the media.

Same goes. Melbourne, Richmond, St. Kilda and Geelong are massive chances to drop their games and we have a depleted Eagles side at home. We beat them well we jump the Saints and Eagles and find ourselves tied for 5th heading into the Adelaide game.

We need some momentum now!

[bornadog]

for that to occur we need to do what we've been unable to do thus far in 2017 and put score on the board from the first quarter.

Thought we did that last week.

[merantau]

We have to be up for it every game from now on in. This season has shown that it doesn't matter who's in or who's out - just about any team can beat any team at any time. Especially if the mental state is not right.

North kicked 10 .4 to zero against Adelaide in a quarter. Hawthorn beat Adelaide. Geelonh lost 3 on end and Freo should have beaten them. Melbourne won for the first time in yonks over in Perth.

We have to be ready and primed from the off.

[Ozza]

If we can't beat the team West Coast are putting on the field this week, then it is probably fair that we have September off this year.

West Coast in Melbourne - with no Kennedy, Priddis, NicNat, Schofield, Hurn.... no excuse for not winning this.
