Murphy named?

Re: Rd 1 team

And Freo's for what it's worth:

B: Roger Hayden, Michael Johnson, Luke McPharlin
HB: Josh Head, Antoni Grover, Steven Dodd
C: Rhys Palmer, Paul Hasleby, Garrick Ibbotson
HF: Paul Duffield, Chris Tarrant, Byron Schammer
F: Brett Peake, Ryan Murphy, Matthew Pavlich
Foll: Aaron Sandilands, Ryan Crowley, David Mundy
I/C (from): Marcus Drum, Scott Thornton, Nick Suban, Kepler Bradley, Stephen Hill, Daniel Gilmore, Andrew Browne

Harvey's also admitted the pre-season experiment with Tarrant/Grover is over and they'll likely revert to their traditional roles, as the side suggests.

Re: Rd 1 team

From the above, this is how my team would look.


B: Dylan Addison, Brian Lake, Stephen Tiller
HB: Lindsay Gilbee, Dale Morris, Ryan Hargrave
C: Daniel Cross, Ryan Griffen, Josh Hill
HF: Jarrod Harbrow, Mitch Hahn, Brad Johnson
F: Shaun Higgins, Will Minson, Jason Akermanis
Foll: Ben Hudson, Matthew Boyd, Adam Cooney
I/C (from): Tom Williams, Nathan Eagleton, Andrejs Everitt, Callan Ward

No Murphy or Callan - that squad looks fairly strong. A few underdone but I still think we should get over the line.

Gia will play and according to Ox on SEN, so will Williams

My bad - Gia in, Ward out.

Re: Rd 1 team

Looks like a very well balanced side. Wonder which three will drop out. Any ideas who is making the flight over?

Seeing as Williams is playing, I would think they would be Eagle, Ward and, depending on how Timmy's going, either him or Everitt.

Re: Rd 1 team

At a guess I would think Murphy, Callan & Ward won't play, but who knows.

Would be a shock if Williams plays seeing as though all talk was that he was being aimed at rd 2, but I guess he might as well play with us rather than Williamstown.

Re: Rd 1 team

Yeah i was surprised they bothered naming him Rocket said 'Tom hasnt been ready for round 1 hes not playing' etc..

Id assume if hes playing they'll rest Callan after his peanut incident..

So I think its Williams Gia Ward Everitt

Re: Rd 1 team

Loving the depth our team is getting.

That's what good teams have.

Re: Rd 1 team

If we don't destroy them in the midfield, something's wrong. We really look a lot stronger. They've got some really good players and one superstar but we should do this comfortably if our head's are right.

They've got a couple of very good players.

Agree that if we come to play we should have no problems with this Fremantle line-up.

Re: Rd 1 team

I doubt murphy will play,

Cooney surprises me as well. The game against Melbourne he was quite under done, and didn't look like he could stretch out to run. I couldn't see him playing at subiaco unless perhaps he plays in a forward role?
