Big ground, dry conditions, everything in place for a fast, run and carry game.

Pity we don't play that way.

Here's the plan. We fly over early, have a great preparation, let WCE get out to a five goal lead in the first quarter when they take us by surprise and run it through the corridor from half back. We then play chippy chippy footy and turn what could be a fast, free flowing spectacle into a low scoring, boring slugfest. We claw our way back into the game with over possessive footy, never using the speed we have in the team for anything other than to get a few htb decisions for running down their runners. WCE finish off the game and win by twenty points They score seventy five we score just under fifty.

TC blame Levi for missing a goal with three minutes to go and we get ready for the following week.

Byrne would be a definite in after a good game in the VFL. Jaksch had his second four goal game in a row, will be a chance. Hopefully Cuningham, Williamson and McKay will be available too.

Jaksch another 4 goals today, for the 2nd consecutive week. Play him to see what he can offer before we make our final decision, although his issues are more bad attitude than form and footy ability.

You can bet if we sack him the penny will drop, his attitude picks up, another club picks him up and he really goes well. Familiar story for us.

Finals spots are extremely close. This will also hurt the Scum's chances if, as I expect, we lose.

Thought it was pretty common knowledge. He's certainly has played well enough in the VFL the last two years to play seniors it's his attitude keeping him out..

So give your opinion Rexy? What's keeping KJ out of the side. Doesn't have to be fact. Just your opinion please.

Match committee pick Levi every single week.
Nobody needs to say anything to keep Levi's worth up. The people that matter know his worth very well and pick him each week for it.

Now is the time.

He only played one game last year. Against the Eagles. In Perth. That's where the rumours started. His body language was judged by some in the game as poor and he's never played in the AFL again since. It's all rumours. We don't know the truth. But Bolts might put it on him to redeem himself against the same opposition in the same location.

I think they should give him a shot to redeem himself. But I certainly wouldn't crisisise them if they don't. They know better than me.
