In Archer out Mini I believe?

Emergencies
Jarryn Geary
Andrew McQualter
Nicholas Winmar

I really thought Kosi would be back, oh well.

Wonder if Winmar is a chance?

How about a bit of pace in the team? Selection committee lacks flair.

Genuinely staggered that Crippa isn't in the side

ANy word on Cripps?? Little shocked not named anywhere after the talk about him. Good to see that Winmar is pushing up a little, could be just the type of player we need.

Lets hope Archer and really make a good go of it. Could be one of the years better football stoires.

Tigers

Out Rance, in Jake King

Dunno about Cripps, but Mini is an emergency which is odd...can that be changed at any stage?

Give it a break. Round 1 is s warm up round for top teams.

Expect to a vastly improved output from the boys.

Is Kosi a chance for some Sandy action on Saturday?

He needs a praccy match, which VFL standard is equivalent to.

I would like to see Kosi come in after the break. There is no rush and it's going to be a very long season.

Who is our sub? I hope Archer is starting on the bench, and not the sub.

So I assume "Glenn" Archer will play up forward given he's as useful as tits on a bull in the ruck?

Thoughts?

gutted.

also just poor psychology and morale. u wonder why our kids are un-motivated and not "tearing it up for sandy every week"

you have 3 coaches talking up cripps in the media. hes done everything right. we have no pace and some players under-performed yet now hes not even an emergency. disappointed for the kid.

some people will say - oh he should be motivated and harden up and all that.

bt the kids are just humans and dont need their confidence on a roller. coaster ride.

most likely ross will say hes still got the flu - but then he will play for sandy anyways.

So Archer is to be used to replace Kosi like Stanley was used to replace Roo last season. Good for Archer, but makes you wonder where the other players are at.

The sub is named when the teams are finalized about 30 minutes prior to kickoff.

Who cares what BS they say in the media, why give away selection decisions mid week?

Perhaps they are helping the kid get his illness to a manageable level?

It's new to us, and new to him.

I realise Archer is a big boy, does that mean he does not qualify as a kid?

Armo Ben Archer....maybe even Winmar.

Only same old same old is the posters who have a tendency to complain :wink:

I remember hearing that Stanley's VFL form so far this year has been poor. That is why he isn't getting a guernsey.

I don't consider Armo a 'kid' anymore. He may have only played 30 odd games, but he must be into his 5th year on the list and at least 22-23 by now.

Good decision imo.
We desperately need another target up forward to unload Roo.
Also archer can help Mcevoy and Blake in the ruck.
Mini will be no loss the way he is playing
