You know you're having a bad run with injuries when you need a bloke and his donkey going round to bring the players off the ground. Freo have been decimated with injuries and suspension this week, losing another 4 players but despite the cupboard being pretty bare, they still took the time to drop Connor Blakely, bringing the outs to 5, 6 if you count Toby Watson but no one ever counts Toby Watson. So Brennan Cox,, Connor Blakely, Griffin Logue, Nat Fyfe and Nathan Wilson are all out. There's good news those, Alex Pearce is back, Brandon Walker and Joel Western will debut, with Brett Bewley and Reece Conca jumping in as well.
