Or to Didak with Dempster to Daisy.

Might take a rotation on Swan as well. Expect Ray to have first crack though.
Or Beames/Sidebottom/Blair if they play forward?

Congrats young man and well earned!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+1 for the young fella. If he was a racehorse his owners would be delighted - 26 wins and a tie from 30 starts. Certainly a lucky charm for us.
With Ben you will know he will bust a gut.

Let's all hope that he has a fairtytale game to announce himself as our new and ongoing No 1 ruck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+1 Go Macca!

Is Armo a genuine chance to come in, or is this a last minute attempt to make Armo feel parcially wanted and Ross hoping that he won't request a trade?
Weather insurance I'm guessing.
huh?

as in rain you mean?

Forecast is for 22 and fine - 2 days out it is fairly accurate normally.

With no rain forecast until Monday, rain sounds very unlikely.

Eddy...time to redeem yourself!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry take great offence at that

Redeem for what

That he is young and played only a handful of games

Cut him some slack ffs.

Yes he had a very public holding the ball but in a game with lots of pressure and other errors does he deserve anymore criticism thna others

No

agree.

I haven't been the biggest Eddy fan, but have warmed to him immensly recently.

He is a tackling machine, and given his lower profile, may be able to tackle hard again this week, as he won't be as sore as some of our targetted stars may be.

That, plus play on Goddard. Apparently he's the ideal match-up for BJ, physically. Interesting that Leon isn't even named on the emergency list. That'll teach him. No fourth time lucky.

Dam, armo not in.. however, you never know, I hope he gets to play and Ross makes a late change... I think Eddy was lucky, he is attacking the ball much better than last year though, but really didn't do enough imo, four tackles not good enough if that's really his only job (pressure).

Get the feeling the Pies have made a change as a reaction to us, thus changing their natural plan... Goldsack (or someone) will tag BJ, which goes against the way they've played all year...

This works well for us... Sure, we aren't going in with 2 set rucks, as we have for most of the year (I feared incorrectly this would hurt us last week), but we are keeping the same structure that we had last week, and this should work in our favour...

My gut feeling is that Gram may be a late change with Geary in.

This.

Was surprised to see Shithouse replace a goalsneak forward (who admittedly almost won them the game in the end) with a bloke who many Pies supporters see as a "backman, but he'll run with Goddard" to quote a Pie-mad mate of mine.

Knee-jerk reaction to Goddard, I'm loving it.

They now need to push a mid forward to replace Leon, who was always going to occupy one of our hard small backmen (Bakes)

Beams is due I reckon, looked pretty bummed with his performance last week...

And what exactly would little Jacky Steven bring to the forward line?

All well and good to like a player, but they need to be able to deliver.

I'm really rapt for McEvoy!! Big bloke who can take a good mark, kick goals and can ruck!! Very nice!!! :D


When they created LENNY HAYES (in the shadow of Harvs) they forgot to break the mold (again)- hence the Supremely Incredible Jack Steven!!

Yeah, well atleast he likes to think he's a midfielder. He doesn't get the ball, would love it if he played. Not up to it at all.

EDIT: Actually he seems to spend a lot of time up forward...Either way, he doesn't get the ball :P
