Looks like Burgoyne did not pass the fitness test.

My apologies...thought I had a "first" there

Someone forgot to send the team list to AFL HQ.
Everyone will be already on their way to Adelaide including the guy who sends the team in.
If you know someone in the club admin, give them a call and remind them.

Yep Network 10 has stated that Eddy is in for Kosi...

Still waiting for the official line up and emergencies

Good luck Rob Eddy. Big game to come into.

Wonder if the named team will have Eddy at FF. Ross hasn't been really creative with the team sheet.

Rumour is they did a scan and found no brain.

starsign · Post: # 728583Post **starsign** » Thu 23 Apr 2009 6:51pm

he may as well name him at FF and keep them and us guessing!
Just an aside on Eddy and his umpire caused injury sideline ...we should have thet many (4+) weeks he missed as credits in case one of our blokes infringes an ump in future!!! be a fair thing I recon

Mr X from the West · Thu 23 Apr 2009 6:52pm

Would have preferred Xavier Clarke!

I suppose this means Gwilt and BJ alternating in playing inside the forward 50.

I'm sure Lyon contemplated bringing Begley in at the back and moving Gilbert or Fisher further up the ground. But that would have been less like "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".

I guess the consensus at the club is that X isn't quite ready.

One thing we know with Eddy is that he will give a 100 per cent effort over 4 quarters. I'm not that impressed with his skills, but maybe we have enough of those to go on with in the other 21 players.

I think X is about as ready as he's going to get. Lyon just has a man-crush on RobEd

SaintDebi · Post: # 728587Post **SaintDebi** » Thu 23 Apr 2009 6:55pm

Its nice for the club to be in a position to have a few options to choose from for a change. I think Eddy could be a good choice if the weather is as forecast.

bigcarl · Post: # 728588Post **bigcarl** » Thu 23 Apr 2009 7:03pm

a very "safety first" selection imo and not particularly adventurous.

then again, i said that when i saw the round 1 team and look how we've performed so far.

starsign · Post: # 728589Post **starsign** » Thu 23 Apr 2009 7:03pm

Eddy definitely selected with the forcast weather conditions in mind

Where had he been playing during the Nab Cup , predominantly on the wing or generally through the midfield or halfback even anyone?

StPeter · Post: # 728593Post **StPeter** » Thu 23 Apr 2009 7:10pm

I can't believe they have selected Eddy ahead of X.

Lyon must see something he hasn't shown us on the field yet.

Our worst player in last years finals series.

IMO X was the worst, but he had no real preparation...

Eddy has been mentioned as an emergency for the last 3 games and if he was not injured by that umpire in the NAB series, I feel he would have been in our starting 22 in round 1

Armoooo · Post: # 728599Post **Armoooo** » Thu 23 Apr 2009 7:16pm

Eddy has been brought in simply for pressure, he is one of the best runners and tacklers in the team and Ross has said if you want to get in/ stay in the team you have to apply pressure and tackle, tackle, tackle.

It is this attitude that has kept Geary in the side and he is begining to repay the faith with an improved offensive output.

Ross is building a team around his philosophy of relentless pressure and quick rebounds and from the results thus far I'm backing him 100%.

IMO the Clarke brothers simply aren't going to play a great deal in our future. They've got enough talent to be walkup starters but their bodies just can't let them have a fair go.

Plus with that in mind Eddy is 5kg heavier...and suppliesa bigger body than X.

Anyway Eddy is a worthy in.....and we area ina good position of having several worthy players that we could have brought in = true depth.

Workrate has beena clear Lyon focus since Dal and Milne where dropped...and Eddy is a very hard worker.

I think it sends a great message to X... when your chance comes, you're gonna need to grab it with both hands.
