Either team by 25 points. I can't trust this team as our best is incredible and our worst is woeful. Freo's mids look great but their forward line doesn't exist.

They may roll the dice and put Jackson into the centre with Darcy. At least I would to try and beat up an opponent. Fyfe to rotate forward to try and steal a goal or two.

They've named two debutants after a smashing so we should win this but with us you never know.

Thanks Wilco, I figure with all his errors and sprays he's gotta be due a big occasion goal any minute. VDM is known as a pest and maybe he needs to really take on that mantle unapologetically, might give him the composure to make better last second decisions.

Why not use Harmes on Fyffe? He has been as useful as dipping bird at the moment.

We don't apply a tagger. We need the midfield to standup and start laying more tackles.

It's a reasonably good game but I'd like to see us defend better.

Freo should probably be 2-3 goals up.

If we stick the tackles and reduce the unforced errors, I think this game could turn into our favour. We just need to kick 2 goals in sequence.

When we won the flag in 2016 those guys were the ones who were a point of difference. I don't see that with this team - Bramble, Harmes, Buku, Garcia, Gallagher, they all have their moments but they can't be relied upon.
