None of them but maybe Birss and X for Bally and Geary.

How did X go????

Otherwise Birss and Armo.

Birrs to play on Shaw again.

With Ball out we need another inside mid - Armo.

Apparently Jones and Lenny may be injured. In any case, it was Rafael, NOT Xavier, who had the good game.

I know that Raph was BOG...but my question was how did X go as he was not discussed that I have seen?

Also I forgot about Max...how bad was his calf?

Originally they said they would give him up till Friday for this week...so I assume that he is a likely starter for next week?

In Clarkes and Birss
Out Geez where do you start? Maybe nowhere if injuries take a hand, but Gilbo and Eddyo should join Armo. Can't run, can't kick and so, can't play.

Gilbert, cant run, cant kick, cant play. Tough comment, I reckon, at 6' 4" I reckon he's mobile with a hell of a lot of upside for a inexperienced player, who gets handed big responsibilities every week. Watch him more carefully !

Eddy was fine...took a great mark, showed some run and some courage. Agree, Birss has got to get a go...perfect to take on the Pies.

Birss in, Geary stays in because he'll have a good matchup down there on their forward line.

Out: Ball
In: Birss

If Jones is out, Armo in also.

Would love to see Jack Steven get a gig this year, but I don't think it will happen.

Why would you consider bringing in Armitage?

He contests alright, but cannot go the distance at the Shed.

Failed miserably at Subi.

Why would he be able to handle the MCG at the moment?

He will be OK, but not this year.

Watch him: kick along the ground, push players in the back, grab players arouind the neck, grab players around the legs, miss marks, get caught.

They say rugby players can never make an AFL player - he proves the rule.

Armo and Gilbo for Browno. A win-win; we get a champ, they get two duds.

To me Milney was a bit disappointing today. I'd push either X, Bakes or Armo in for Ball. And consider another one of them 3 for Milne.

Turn it up!

Has a bad game and he's off to the magoo's?

On that basis we'd be dropping a lot of players each week

It's a suggestion. He has had more then one bad game for the year.

And they have all been dropped more then once apart from Eddy, who i think has been great since being included in our firsts. Maybe not drop Milney this week, but if the game is on the line next week and he does nothing once again i would consider it.

They'd never drop Milney against the Pies...he does a reasonable job against them, got a couple lazy goals in a pretty avaerage team display last time. If we fire, he'll bag 4!

The ball just didn't bounce Milne's way today.

Some games it does and he looks awesome.

Some games it doesn't, like 2day.

He's a great crumber and when on song, his energy gets the whole crowd into the game.

Milne ain't going anywhere.
