Wasnt going to put a review in but due to popular demand here we go(just for you Leedy)

Lets hope Friday 13 is an unlucky day for SF....

We can win this and will be out to avenge the last game. Looks like the weather is not going to be much better but thats footy.
Sure Bill will be working hard on his match plan and the players should lift due to the Finals race being just about over if we dont win this one.
We would of learnt a few lessons from the last game against SF and EP last week.
Murphy is a big danger and has been performing well up front. We certainly fell away in the forward line in the last match with no goals kicked in the first half!
We need to start well and take it from there. The usual cliches are we have to be Hungry and backup our player going for the ball (something lacking last week). We must attack in packs and be first to the ball…

No need to mention the Weather again.

Injuries dont look to bad except for Eoin McClintock with a broken Tibia in the Ressies last week.
Lewie has been outed by the tribunal for a week due to Misconduct v EP.

Game is being broadcast by 91.3 SportFM

Umpires for the game are
Umpires Field: Beau Wardman, Todd Keating, Craig O’Donoghue
Boundary: Ryan Sinclair, Michael Washbourne
Goal: Matt Laycock, Dale Edwick

South Fremantle v West Perth

Look for: A hard-fought contest between two sides with their top four aspirations firmly on the line.
Fifth-placed West Perth will be desperate to keep alive their finals hopes after missing a golden
opportunity to seal a top four berth in last weekend’s 14-point loss to East Perth. A Falcons win
at South Fremantle will also put to bed any remaining flicker of hope the reigning premiers have
of making the finals.
South Fremantle, currently seventh, must win their remaining two games and hope results go
their way elsewhere to have any chance of qualifying for the top four. They’ll be buoyed by the
knowledge that when these two sides met in early July in wet and windy conditions they ran out
convincing 64-point winners.
Toby Bairstow and Toby McGrath were two of the Bulldogs’ better players last weekend as
Swan Districts pulled away from them in the final term to record a 35-point win. For the Falcons, Dion
Fleay and Rohan Bewick toiled hard in their loss to the Royals.

Looking good in the ressies Playing Saturday at Fremantle 1145AM:
For the Bulldogs, youngster Daniel Easter had 26 possessions while bigman Damien Hayward
dominated in the ruck. For West Perth, youngster Alex Elisseou (19touches, 10 marks, three goals) was impressive again while former AFL player Callum Chambers collected 23 disposals to push for a senior game as he returns from injury.

Overall record:
South Fremantle won 170, West Perth won 159,Drawn 6
Overall grand final record: South Fremantle won 4, West Perth won 3

For those interested this was posted by Jim on EP V WP thread but a few might miss it so have reposted here… Thanks for the Info Jim as Rosco is a legend with what he does with the Juniors and his volunteer work.
Will get a update this Friday night on Rosco and Eion McClintock who broke his leg in the Ressies last week.

I am going to have stern words with Ross when I see him again. He always had the young women hanging off him at the games. Told him it wouldnt be good for his health

I scoured the website at WP and other sites but couldnt find a pic of Ross. Have put one on from the Junior parade at Joondalup..

Hi Cardy and fellow West Perthies

They will keep in touch with his family on how he is progressing and we all hope that he will be back around the Club soon.

Cheers Cardy, nice work ! May bump into you at the food hall again on Friday night.

West by 26p

No worries Leedy… Looking forward to the lineup for the game. Should be on the WAFL site tonight.
Lewi is out(one of our best at SF in last game) so will give a Ressie a chance to move up… Couple there are ready to go.
Maybe Callum? I would like to see Tom Crossland in as he played an incredible game last week.
Coaches call.

Worth noting in the last game we played SF Murphy kicked 5 goals and Head 3 out of their total of 12 goals...8 goals from 2 players. So 2 players beat us on the scoreboard. If you get my point.
This game on Friday will not be the same and we will come away with the 4 points.
I am confident of that

Dont forget to bring some Money for Sala and Leccy. Big fines during the week..(see below)

Will leave you with this Winston Churchill quote - (I think he was a WP supporter )

“Sure I am this day we are masters of our fate, that the task which has been set before us is not above our strength; that its pangs and toils are not beyond our endurance. As long as we have faith in our own cause and an unconquerable will to win, victory will not be denied us.”
Winston Churchill

Heres the preview(if you can call it that) from the West
John Townsend and Ross Lewis. Townsend talks in riddles and Lewis talks some sense
At least it is WAFL

Townsend picks SF Lewis draw

WAFL World is on 91.3 today or will be on podcast today sometime at

http://www.sportfm.com.au/podcasts/

at least 2 of the panel pick WP… (wise heads)

I notice in the Budget all pick SF except our loyal Lachy…

Not that you can take any notice of the tipsters...All picked Subi to beat us which we won.

Interesting ‘preview’ indeed cardy…both seem 2 think that both teams are done for ’10, regardless of the result???

Yes mate it goes to show how much research they do.
I found it agonizing to listen to this. Hate to think what the other previews say?
If we win this we will goto 40 points with 2 games to go. Good chance.
EF with a guaranteed 44 after the Peel game are in so only one slot left.
Subi have EF/EP and SF(go doggies in that one)

WP have CLA and Perth after this one. I would say we have the better run home(just). A win over SF will not guarantee us a berth as we are fighting for 1 spot in the 4 now…

In a nutshell - EF have a top 4 sown up on 44+
4th spot between Subi and WP. EP outside chance if things go their way in other games.

The enigma continues for at least another week after this round maybe 2?

Considering SF injury list we should win this game. WP except for Strijk(rookie WC), Harvey (suspended) we are pretty well at full strength.

If we cant win this we dont deserve to be in finals..

SF injury list

As at Tuesday 10 August 2010

Leigh Kelly - Foot - Test
Jarrad Winter - Thigh- 1 week
James Klause - Ankle - 2 weeks
Mitch Cornell - Toe - 2 weeks
Gerard Wilkie – Calf - Season
Reece Adams – Hamstring – Season
Brett Stanford - Hamstring - Season
Hayden North - Hamstring - Season
Joel Palumbo - Hamstring - Season
Jaymie Graham – Knee – Season
Nathan Phillips – Knee – Season
Cory Dell’Olio - Knee - Season
Theo Adams – Heart – Season

Townsend doesn’t talk in riddles he is just extremely biased towards SF. The most biased person in the WAFL media by a very big margin.

And yes if we don’t win we don’t deserve to get anywhere near the finals.

I expect a much, much better showing than the last time we played at Fremantle oval. There’s nothing wrong with being beaten but at least go down swinging. All I really want is for the boys to have a crack, at the end of the day that’s why I love our club, because the players have always had a red hot go in the do or die games.

Townsend is the biggest tool in the media covering footy or cricket, i couldnt believe his comments saying WP fans are the most fickle and bagging the guy who screams CARN WEST is a low blow! he barracks thru thick and thin, and even though im a Swans fan im going Fri nite and feel like confronting John “TOOL” Townsend over his biased comments, he fails to mention Claremont (his side) fans coming out of the woodwork this season! (sorry loyal tigers)! WP by 25 pts

good swandog, just make sure U & UR WP mates do NOT try & gain access 2 our members area…WP do not extend the same courtesy to us, so we will not to them…or any of their “hangers on"…no offense intended…

We wouldn’t want to gain access to your members area.

Robbo2003 - 12 August 2010 02:48 PM

We wouldn’t want to gain access to your members area.

good...keep it that way

I havent seen anyone at the entrance to the Grandstand or lower members area this year at Joondalup so what are you going on about? Not like the White coats at SF.
White coats I thought they went out years ago?
If its now raining we all stand down on the boundary anyway..

No OFFENCE intended - Your spell checker is wrong as my spelling of offence is correct unless your American?

I suppose the brain dead security guy will be there again to walk all the way down to the boundary in the wind and to tell say you cant smoke inside the ground before he heads back to the bar entrance where there are 6 guys smoking near the door.
