Guess this weeks ins and outs

[plugger66]

Changed from earlier this week. Thought Blake would be out but now dont think so.

Out
Newnes

In
Siposs.

IN : Siposs, Hickey

OUT : Newnes, Blake

IN : Siposs, Hickey

OUT : Newnes, Blake

That would be the obvious one but where would Hickey play?

loose man in defence

[CURLY]

Webster has to be in he played very well last week.

IN : Siposs, Hickey

OUT : Newnes, Blake

I hope so. BC would be very happy. I actually want Hickey in but that would mean dropping Lee IMO and one game probably isnt fair.

[dragit]

Out: Newnes, Ray
In: Siposs, Ross

[Old Mate]

Tough week at the selection table.

Plugger makes a good point about Hickey and Lee. Does Siposs immediately come back in?

I've got feeling big Kosi makes a special appearance and Murdoch close to selection, as is Ross

In:
Kosi & Murdoch

Out:
Blake & Newnes

[spert]

Essendon have lost a big man, so maybe Hickey for Newnes. Three marking forwards in Roo, Maister and Lee might be hard match up for the Bomber defence.

IN : Siposs, Hickey

OUT : Newnes, Blake

They are the changed I want, just think Hickey may stretch them height wise.

Plugger do you know what is Simpkin not in, is he playing for Sandy or is he injured. I was going he along with Sipposscould really step up this year

[bergholt]

IN: Dunell, Hickey, Simpkin
OUT: Blake, Lee, Newnes (inj)

[Saints94]

In: Siposs Simpkin & Ross

Out: Newnes Ray Blake

[Wrote for Luck]

In: Simpkin, Siposs

Out: Blake, Newnes

(Siposs to play sub. think Simpkin had a good game against these guys last year. Essendon defence is very good so Siposs provides extra forward/line breaking threat)

He is playing. He will hopefully play this week if they drop Blake and can think of someone to help as a second ruckman. Im sure Blake is only ahead of him because he can give a chop out in the ruck.

IN : Siposs, Hickey

OUT : Newnes, Blake

Given Essendon don't have many tall forwards, especially if Hurley doesn't play, I don't think there's a defensive spot for Blake, leaving him as just a back up ruckman. If we're going with a back up ruckman then Hickey gets the nod ahead of Blake. Resting either ruckman forward would really stretch Essendon's Fletcher-less defence too.
It would also give Lee the opportunity to play further up the ground and get more touch and confidence.

Either way I think Blake needs a rest. If not Hickey, then Simpkin comes in. Stanley and Maister are capable of giving McEvoy chop outs in the ruck.

[PJ]

I get the idea of using Hickey but I think that will slow us down even more. I'll go for more run.

In Dunnel
Out Newnes

[SainterK]

Out Newnes Blake
In Dunnel Simpkin

(though I wouldnt be surprised if Scott played a debutant in Ross or Murdoch)

[bigcarl]

Out: Newnes, Lee

In: Hickey, Siposs

Lee stiff, but will get more chances soon enough.

[dragit]

Out Newnes Blake
In Dunnel Simpkin

*ross debuted last year remember?
Be exciting to see the hulk debut...

[borderbarry]

I thought it was Webster who played well last week for the Zebras? Not a mention so far.

Well Barry you can pick him. Its only our opinion.

Oh yeah, thanks.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Ross name v his cousin then

[CURLY]

Is there any talk at all about Webster, Ross, Murdoch from people that count?
