Our opponents next week: Freo

Re: Our opponents next week: Freo

Since we lost to Carlton it really is a must win game. If we lose it isn't all over, but it makes the journey that much harder. Both teams have a lot to play for, going to be interesting to see whose more hungry.

I have a bad feeling that the loss to Carlton will really haunt us this year. We really cannot afford to lose anymore games to teams lower on the ladder for the balance of the season. The next four weeks are critical for us.
2 and 2 will leave us short. 3 and 1 and we will be right in the mix.

Just quickly who we got over the next 4 weeks?

That's the odd thing about Freo's inconsistency - you just don't know which team will turn up.

Anymore word on Pavlich's alleged kneeing incident?

Both he and Solomon have been cleared.

Freo, Port, Ess & North.

All sides around us on the ladder and all side we should beat.

I hate looking that far ahead especially after people were saying 5-0 at the start of the season.
Take a win this week, then look at the next.

I'd like to think that we would win all 4 but 3 out of 4 would be more than OK. 2 and 2 could be a problem for us.

Re: Our opponents next week: Freo

Did Street play against Sandilands last time? How would you describe that matchup - Dry Rot?

Last we played the rucks were even, however, around the ground Sandilands picked up 12 disposals to Street 5. Street must do more around the ground and take some marks. His tackling isnot bad, and he often positions himself in a good spot but players are seemingly ruluctant to kick it to him.

Last time Cooney burned, 27 disposals and kicked 2.2

Hasleby and Josh Carr picked up 25 plus disposals each

Are you of the "if Faulkner isn't selected, he's gone" school of thought?

I don't think that it would be curtains if he is not selected.

Aren't Freo a pretty tall team?

Re: Our opponents next week: Freo

Aren't Freo a pretty tall team?

Bulldogs average last week was:

Height 186.9cm
Weight 86.5kg
Age 24yr 12mth
Games 101.2

Freo last week

187.6cm
90.3kg
25yr 9mth
106.5

According to a post on BF, Freo have 8 players over 191cm, we have 4, but that does not include Hargrave and Morris who are 190. Don't know if Freo has any one over 190.

So, based on that DR, we may need a tall to come in, so is it Everitt or McDougall, maybe Wight?
