Re: Changes for the West Coast game!!!!!
West Coast making 5 changes. Adam Simpson has made no secret about how he's approaching this season. Eagles are making at least 5 changes.
Clearly he's got his eye on 2021. We should win this match easily.

Dom Sheed is a huge out, now missing Yeo Shuey and Sheed. Clearly 3 of their best 5 midfieldersSecret Kiel wrote: ↑Wed 09 Sep 2020 3:49pm West Coast making 5 changes. Adam Simpson has made no secret about how he's approaching this season. Eagles are making at least 5 changes.

Redden has been in pretty good form as well
Must be a question on McGovern his thumb looked very painful. I guess he has to play as there is not enough time left for him to recover properly (jab jab jab) so no point in managing him out

Re: Changes for the West Coast game!!!!!
Said it before, West Coast should take this game off and load up for North in the last game. It looks like its the case.
Even if we beat the Eagles and Giants, I doubt our % will get above theirs after they flog North in their last game.

Want to watch the most boring and devious thing on television and probably in mankind's history, then tune into a daily live press conference at 11am.

Re: Changes for the West Coast game!!!!!
Melbourne, lowly, heavily maligned in the media, lowest ebb...made seven changes and still beat us. If West Coast make five, it ain’t no sure thing.
Wish I knew about the form of reserves players. Last scratch match news I could find is way back on Aug 18. https://www.saints.com.au/news/797365/s ... n-brisbane
Savage kicked a nice goal. Abbot was so good evidently, he ended up picked last week.

Re: Changes for the West Coast game!!!!!
So would the Eagles have made so many changes in a full strength competition year in the same scenario, they are 5th and can make the 4 easily if they win both their of next 2 games. However the fact that all finals will be in SEQ except for the Port game(s) means it dilutes the normal advantages for WCE when they finish top 4, i.e. no traveling for them?terry smith rules wrote: ↑Wed 09 Sep 2020 4:04pmDom Sheed is a huge out, now missing Yeo Shuey and Sheed.

Re: Changes for the West Coast game!!!!!
They still have a very strong forward line and backline.
They can still beat us by being efficient with there entries and defending well.
We need to bring it all for this game, its the type of game it would be easy for the players to relax because half of their side is out and then BAM they kick a few early and hold on for a narrow win.
Reminds me of 2009 against the Hawks when we rested about 10 players and still won

Don't let them be efficient.

Re: Changes for the West Coast game!!!!!
I’m worried about the “we are down to our last man kinda adrenaline” that the West Coast might conjure up tonight. Seen it before with depleted sides, they come up for one almighty last gasp. It only lasts for one or two games, but it seems to be real.

Re: Changes for the West Coast game!!!!!
We have a pretty good side in for tonight's game. Quick and skillful.
