No McPharlin, No Broughton.
Their top 4 backline is missing in action.
We win or we choke. Simple as that. Freo can't win with their injuries.
Freo got back Grover who is a pretty good replacement for McPharlin, they still have Tarrant as well so they aren't too badly off for defenders. They have pretty good depth now.
I think our injuries, with Riewoldt and Gram out, will affect us more than McPharlin and Broughton being out.
Freo are still definitely favourites, reflected by the betting odds. I think we still have a reasonable chance of winning but we will have to play better than we have the past few weeks and take our chances in front of goal.
