Freo have the bye this week so another week's rest for Broughton can only be good

[bunyip]

Considering their injuries, they are doing incredibly well this year. If they could get all their players on the paddock, they'd give anyone a tough game. As it is, they're doing well. Only lost 1 game, and should have won that one.

I have been using their best team in AFL Live its great :P

[cookie311993]

they are going pretty good the dockers. should be good year for them provided luck with injuries

[Cruiseon]

Guys what is the liklihood of Lower & Broughton being back for the next round?

[valkorum]

Broughton will come straight back in if he is over his back injury.  I think Lower will hold his spot a few more weeks until some injured players come back

It only leaves us with 30 players to select 22 from each week (not counting rookies) - not a good position to be in.

[Cruiseon]

Not good at all, tough times.

Still you really should get the win this week against Port. Regardless of what you think a win against St.Kilda at home is likely then who knows a few of those tests are back in and ready to roll against the tougher games verses Hawthorn & Essendon. After that its Brisbane and the GC then the bye.

Freo should win 3 or 4 of the next 6 and remain in the 8 when the bye comes round, then assess the real part of the season from there.

Thats pretty much how I have summed it up as well.
