Griff to Charlie, Alex Pearce to McKay and we should be off to the bank with a 4-point deposit. (probably 3-points taking inflation into account) Time to Restump Podcast the Blues bash on Saturday.

If we’re a genuine top four finisher and premiership contender we have to put away the defence depleted Blues. Lose this game and suddenly it paints a shifting picture.

The Blues have struggled to contain scoring in recent weeks so if we can capitalise on their deficiencies that end of the ground and quell the scoring power of Curnow and McKay the other end, we should be in good shape. 

The Blues are 4 wins from 4 games at Marvel this year and each time they kicked over 100 points. Further reasoning why extra focus should be on our team defence and why surely Griff starts back this week.

Great to see Matty Tabs return although he’d have to be half a run short. Freddy has finally gotten over his hangover and he’s straight back in, so its probably a good thing he’s not on the side-lines carrying the drinks! And after a couple of cracking games for Peel, Liam Henry has been handed another opportunity in the absence of Blake Acres.

The concerns are the massive losses of Sonny Walters and Sammy Switkowski. Both are vital cogs in the forward set up so Freddy and Shultzy will need to shoulder the workload. They may mitigate some of the loss but there's no substitute for Sonny in his current form!

Unfortunately, no Adam Cerra to give constant reminders to each time someone runs by him but there is still a Jack ‘bloody’ Newnes! It’s simply a game we can win, should win and must win.  

It was great to hear Dave Mundy say he isn’t leaving until they drag him out of the joint. Can he go another two years and secure the illustrious Mundy4Hundy? 

If things don’t go our way in September can we blame Paul Hasleby for being a destabilising influence? Firstly, he was urging Griff to shift camps to West Coast and now he’s got his eyes set on Belly for them? Is Hase on the payroll of the rogues up the road or has he been infiltrated by the clickbait revenue generating SEN business model?

What a turnaround! We’ve 9 games left and we’ve got 5 of them on the big Friday and Saturday night stages. Time to stock up on carrots. It’s a great time to be a Freo supporter. 

Crips and Fyfe, Charlie and Griff…. Its going to be a great game. It’s about a day and a half until bounce down against the Blues. If you click play, we can get you through about 45 minutes of it here but then you’re on your own.
