We will know well before. They won't put him on a plane if he's not playing.

There is always a chance a player travels and doesn't come up.

They toyed with the idea of giving him another week in the WAFL to control his minutes and avoiding aggrevating his back sitting on a plane to Melbourne. If he got on the plane he is good to go.

Perhaps the plane ride aggravates it?

Agree, they know even at 80% he'll trouble our undersized backline. He'll play and we need to deal with him, Lobb and whoever else wanders down forward. If our midfield can give us the ascendency then we'll give them similar headaches down our forward line as there aren't too many backlines that can handle Mackay and Curnow when they're getting plenty of opportunities.

Spot on. So much is dependent on our mids. They must bring 120 minutes of heat/toughness at the contest.

All those I50s we surrendered last week had very little to do with our six standing in the D50, and almost everything to do with the 12 others on the field watching it happen!

I'll be very surprised if a Voss coached team suffers that sort of outcome two weeks running, the way that result unfolded last week is the antithesis of the way Voss played, he never surrendered, he was always the last man standing almost to his own detriment!

When an opposition has +70 I50s, it has zero to do with the KPDs!

Motlop sub. Didn't see much from him in the VFL last week.

Officially baffled. I did think to myself, after seeing Motlop named as an emergency... why? So I thought that perhaps the worst performed of the emergencies (in last week's Magoos) will be the medi-sub. Voila.

Owies out, Motlop in.
