Re: Billings Out
Lost our 3 small forwards in one hit.
Big loss, really felt he was ready to have another bulldogs type game, but over 4 quarters.

Re: Billings Out
No Schneider, Billings or Sinclair? v Melbourne?
Surely this is time to bring in the Minch.

Such a shame, he's a great player to watch as is Sinclair.

Re: Billings Out
Yep, I agree. I really hope he makes it hard for them too drop him with a good performance (or 2 or 3 etc).anthony_13 wrote:good for minch to have a go

Re: Billings Out
Not good to see Billings out, but it's good for Minch. to get a run.
I have a good regard for Minch's potential. He just needs a few opportunities. Play well mate![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

Re: Billings Out
Billings out with shin soreness apparently, but great to see Minchy get a run. Hope he makes the most of his opportunity and string a few games together.
Good to see Acres in the starting 22 again. Looks like Richo will keep him in the team permanently now. Hopefully he can stay injury free.

Re: Billings Out
It would be good for the Minch to get a full game so he can get into it but you can just see he will start as the sub. I hope he doesn't.

Has been named as a half forward, so it looks like he will get a full game.Jacks Back wrote:It would be good for the Minch to get a full game so he can get into it but you can just see he will start as the sub. I hope he doesn't.

Good to see Dunstan back in though, isn't it? Bit of focused aggression. Weller too. Big fan.

Re: Billings Out
I don't think billings being out is going to make a difference. Minch is pretty much the same player as billings.

Re: Billings Out
I know we want to win but Billings out wont hurt him. Hes still only a kid and has done well this year.
I assumed Roberton must have been sore when he was on the extended bench. He is clearly a starting 18 player and probably running 4th or 5th in the B&F.
Anyway these run of outs even things up. I have gone from certain Saints win to a 50:50.

Re: Billings Out
I thought they had very similar ability. Billings probably reads to play better and is more creative but his kicks are poor, will probably improve as he matures.magnifisaint wrote:Except he doesn't have the same abilityanthony_13 wrote:I don't think billings being out is going to make a difference.
