Headland Out For Game Against Eagles
The Dockers won't have Des Headland in their forward line as he is out with a hamstring injury. Headland against West Coast is something that fans of the Dockers and Eagles will have to wait until next year to see.
Story from The West Australian: Injury postpones Headland V Selwood II
From the Fremantle site: Headland to miss
AFL Fantasy Impact:
With Headland out, Murphy or Farmer might kick some more goals. Farmer isn't the best player to sign for a fantasy team, Murphy would be a good option but he can't cement a regular spot in their new forward line. Headland is a chance to play next week, so fantasy coaches will probably want to put him on their bench for this round. Fantasy coaches will also want to see what Andrew Foster does, with the Dockers looking to 2008 they should start giving their younger players a lot more playing time. It may not happen against the Eagles, but the remaining rounds could see players like Foster and Ibbotson get a lot of playing time and stats.
