..exactly, if we wanna be serious and try our luck in the finals [even against big odds], then we need to play Knockers before the finals.. ..can't take in such a big unknown..

I prefer we make the finals before sprouting such plans. The way we're playing and with the games we have in front of us that's still no certainty! :hitcomputer:

Otherwise, it's a good idea and adds a new dimension to the team... :donk:

A debut against Melbourne sounds good to me.

It'd be nice to experiment with a forward structure with Kreuz spending most of his time there.

I agree, the match vs. Melbourne would be perfect. Kreuzer, Hampson and Warnock rotating through the ruck in short bursts, with Warnock on the bench when he's not on the field, and the other two rotating through a forward pocket.

It'll do Warnock the world of good to beat Brad Miller in a few ruck contests...

good opportunity for Warnock to debut against the Dees, surely their ruckman will line up in the backline minding Betts :lol:

Teaguey was being diplomatic in response to a specific question. The guy who wrote the article claiming Robbie was impressive must have had help from his labrador - maybe he was one of the umpires.

Would have to be a long way behind Sam Jacobs at this stage !

Will need a very good pre-season under his belt to convince me he is even worthy of being on the list .
Didn't set the world on fire at Freo !

As an aside, the Aaron Keating story isn't the VFL / AFL record for premierships in the shortest number of games, with Richmond's William James playing 1 game for 1 Premiership in 1920:

Our best is Jimmy Morris who was playing his 5th game in the 1914 flag.

Our results over the next 4 weeks could be anything from 4-0, to 1-3, IMO.

It's all down to attitude on-field.

We WILL make the finals though.
