Ducks and drakes.
"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'

If you think about it, it's not really surprising.
We have had all 3 emergencies warm up right throughout the finals so its not surprising that he has been pulled out of the sprint.
His needs to be involved in everything that goes on down in the change rooms just in case something happens and he needs to play.

It's a club effort, not a selected 22 effort.

Emergencies are there as insurance. Stanley would have been gone from the sprint the moment he was named as one of the 25.Thinline wrote:Ducks and drakes.
His inclusion may indicate there are some concerns and those concerns may or may not involve Kosi.
However this "development", IMO, adds no weight to any argument that there will definitely be changes.

I agree. A change is a distinct possibility. But it won't be Kosi.Dr Spaceman wrote:Emergencies are there as insurance. Stanley would have been gone from the sprint the moment he was named as one of the 25.Thinline wrote:Ducks and drakes.

And as for 'development'...It's all based on a speculative spacfilla quoteless sourceless story from a scribe at the Australian...I'm not sure there's a development at all...

I am loving Ross's form this week. Quietly, quietly goes it and a few 'red herrings' towards the end of the week. We are no more clued in than Collingwood as to whom will run out on Saturday and I LOVE IT!!!!!
GO THE MIGHTY SAINTERS!!!!!

Well to be fair.... McEvoy should/has always be in the team... Who has been replaced with a small...
So realisitically.... The 'squad' only has one tall emergency.

But I have no idea what so ever.
Still think Baker may not play, and Geary or Ben come in, so I guess makes the emergenciesSpinner wrote:noob wrote:why else would they have 2 guys at 200cm on the emergency list? kosi must have an injury

Baker, Stanley, McEvoy
or
Baker, Stanley, Geary
Which is not indifferent to recent lists from memory?

This is all making me think it's one big mind game...Ben, in the sprintOhMyGoddard wrote:According to "The Australian" McEvoy will replace Stanley in the sprint!roxanne wrote:McEvoy would replace Kosi, not Stanley.
Or does that translate to Ben holding Stanley's spot, until Ross decides he's done with the games and Stanley runs like he was always going to?
Nobody cares about the actual sprint. That is not the point. Ross 'appears' to be throwing a few red herrings out there for Malthouses benefit. I didn't even watch the sprint last year and couldn't have told you who has won it for the length of it's history. However, you pull a player out of the sprint that is an emergency for a team that is playing in the GF, you will raise a few eyebrows and create some talk. Job well done! We have all been discussing it so you can be sure the Filth are as well!rodgerfox wrote:Does anyone seriously think anyone at the club has given more than 3 seconds thought to the ****ing Grand Final sprint?
Fair dinkum.
Mission accomplished if you ask me.

kosi may be sore, and stanley is there for insurance purposes
