MITCHELL
PASSES
A TEST
When Gerald ,Mitchell passed
a fitness test last night,.the East
Fremantle coach (Charlie
Doig) breathed a sigh of re
lief, for it meant that all of
his players would be available
for the second semi-final on
Saturday.
Mitchell, a fast, young wing
man, has been under a cloud
for several weeks because of
an ankle injury.
Last night a new method of
strapping his ankle was tried
with beneficial results.
East Fremantle has three oz
four wingmen available and it
may not be easy to decide
which two players should be
chosen.
Probably Mitchell and Wilson
Onions will be preferred.
Onions, a vigorous player and
one who is not likely to crack
under pressure, should be suit
ed to semi-final conditions.
Doig said that the East Fre.
mantle players were at their top
and were looking forward to
meeting West Perth.
