I would give Buss a go.

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 14 vs Fremantle Dockers
Treacy is a serious horse and I actually rate him more than Amiss. Think he would monster Buss.

I'm expecting Khamis to come in. If he is training on Lobb then that seems as good prep as possible for us to give him before getting to play on ruck forward types Jacksin and Treacy.
Amiss and Busslinger would have played juniors together (same club) so I'm sure they have crossed paths...

I am probably too tough on Khamis but to me he is just such a limited player (with regards the roles he can play)...he can intercept OK and is a relatively straight kick at goal. But he just isn't strong and trustworthy in the contest and Freo will make him do that...
I don't think he should play this week.

I agree, I wouldn't play him at all. I was actually surprised he was picked last week, and also picked as a sub.
With Keath out, we have the same tall backs as last time, unless Buss gets a gig.

He gives off strong Schache vibes... he just doesn't play with the necessary intensity to thrive at the level.

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 14 vs Fremantle Dockers
I have a single General admission ticket for this weekend's game . due to work commitments can't go this saturday, unfortunately.
The only 2 conditions are:
1. You will need to have submitted more than 10 posts
2. please DM and send me your mobile , and I will sms
I am doing this to make it genuine woofer posters ( confirm you have history) and to avoid any sort of scammers.

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 14 vs Fremantle Dockers
Sounds like we will get back both Richards and Weightman back this week.

Cody said on the tv broadcast he was back after the bye. Who said he’s back before the bye now?

Well, if we do that is certainly not nothing.
I think we will be a lot better this week - the back-to-back-to-back high profile Thursday/Friday night games was a big factor last week...let's see. 2x sides who have shown a tremendous capacity to fiercely defend territory (think last q vs Pies for us) at various times so we need some goal-kickers to make our entries count.

He's listed as a ''test'' in the injury report which means he must be close.

Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 14 vs Fremantle Dockers
Reading the injury list I see Weightman is down as a test which gives me hope he's at least a 50/50 chance for this week. I went to the training yesterday and met up with Stevo and Gary mentioned he thought Weightman was an outside chance. Maybe the odds have shortened just a bit but it's unlikely we will risk it.

Without knowing the actual detail it may need to be transferred via the Ticketmaster app.

At this early stage my thoughts
IN: Scott, Buslinger (no choice), Richards,
OUT: Daniel, Keath, McNeil

If Teacy plays, why do I get a bad feeling he is going to kick a bag against us ?
