Didn't Matera also drop 2-3 easy marks in that game?

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks Cole needs a wake up call. Recently every time he gets near the ball you know he'll either kick it to the opposition or take on a tackle and turn it over. Why hasn't he spent some time playing in VFL?

Yes hence the commentary that day had a funny quote.

"He has dropped more Marks than a German Bank Robber". :lol:

This is all very true,....... and applies to many of our players this season unfortunately. They all can't go back to Willy, even though one could mount an argument for this!

My reasoning is that if they give him a 'role' to concentrate on, it might bring his confidence up and get him into the game. I would like to see what happens with Ritchie forward of centre and think that he could match Wirra for strength & speed - Just a thought,.. something different?

I hope that wasn't sarcastic Burns17, cause i would actually like to see that! Although his current form doesn't warrant a run in the middle. Still, a rampaging Ritchie running through Cousins for the first bounce might set a very nice tone for the afternoon!

No really, i'd be curious to see the results.

Not sure whether he'd get the ball much but maybe he'll hurt someone in the process...?

I think Wirrupunda is still out?? Correct me if I am wrong

Would be interested in seeing our side first, then I will know if we are going to have a read hot go or just try the younger ones (ie bring in experience for the centre)

serious burnsy you idea about cole is good.

I want cole in the centre and he has to run straight through cousins. Get the game fired up. West Coast have been under no pressure this year. They were once in the wizard cup gf and they got rolles by a firey carlton. All there games have been free flowing. THey dont have a real in and under player. Lets make them shake. Get coley in there and make him lay a few bumps ala guerra or pickett. Its our only chance, who cares if he gets suspended, honestly.
There's more to life than footy.........just not much more.

Let's just do some damage to them. Who cares if we get players suspended, it's not going to make any difference to the season anyway.

I say GO THE BIFF!!!
