Changes v Carlton

[plugger66]

Can any of them build a tank for the midfield?

Don't know enough about that kind of stuff to guess.

Im sure the tank matters but you have to have a willingness for the contest and im unsure any of the 3 currently playing have that in their DNA. Milne and Schneider can rotate a little. Know nothing of Mitchington as a mid.

[Old Mate]

May as well get Kosi to his 200th before he gets suspended or injured at Sandy. Different proposition if we were playing for finals.

[tony74]

Yeah, popular bloke and works hard on the track. You have to remember this is his 2nd year so the opposition had worked him out. So keep the faith, he is a very talented sportsman, just needs to learn a few footy smarts from nos. 13 and 44.

How long till 13 is ready Tony?

Educated guess is sub for the Power game. I don't think they will go the VFL route. A lot watched the Rioli return. In a way they have the same recurrent problems

[bigballs]

I'd be tempted to give Dal Santo a rest this week and elevate Curren off the rookie list to take his place.

Out: Dal Santo, Stanley, Milera.
In: Riewoldt, Milne, Curren.

[samuraisaint]

Did Schneider play for Sandy on the weekend?

[Dr Spaceman]

Did Schneider play for Sandy on the weekend?

There was no Sandy game on the weekend

The VFL in it's current form is joke, to many Bi's

Harry O will not like that.

[Mitch35]

Out: Saad, Milera, TDL, Lee (precaution), Gwilt (inj), Wright (caution)
In: Riewoldt, Koschitzke, Milne, Simpkin, Ross, Webster

E: Dunell, Ledger, TDL

Murdoch has played last 3, could do with a rest... if so, Ledger in.
Wright we should manage, will be a player for us. Best to do some conditioning, ensure he is fit next round.
Lee again with turn around and bad Achilles should have a break. If we had him and Kosi both go down we are screwed for talls.

B: Geary Simpkin Webster
HB: Dempster Stanley Roberton
C: Montagna Hayes Steven
HF: Saunders Riewoldt Murdoch
F: Milne Kozzie Hickey
R: McEvoy Armitage Jones
I: Dal Santo, Webster, Newnes
S: Ross

I feel we need to rotate our youngsters through more, to keep them healthy. They only have small tanks and we don't want to run them into the ground. For Port I would then rest Murdoch and maybe Newnes, in Dunell and Ledger, and so on.

[spot on]

Just heard Scotty on 3aw say that Tom curren is very close and has been banging the door down for a game. Hopefully he gets his chance this week. I think he deserve it

[sax]

After SW's interview today, I think there will be 3 changes
Out: Milera, Saad, Gwilt (inj)
In: Riewoldt, Simpkin, Curren

B: Geary, Simpkin, Dempster
HB: Roberton, Stanley, Dal Santo
C: Montagna, Hayes, Jones
HF: Murdoch, Riewoldt, Saunders
F: Dennis-Lane, Lee, Hickey
R: McEvoy, Armitage, Steven
Int: Newnes, Ray, Curren, Wright

[bigcarl]

F: Dennis-Lane, Lee, Hickey
R: McEvoy, Armitage, Steven
Int: Newnes, Ray, Curren, Wright

Like that goal to goal line with Stanley at chb, Lee ff and Simpkin fb. That probably means we'll gt thumped, but I lke your side.

[avid]

I'm sorry to hear about Gwilty (what's wrong?) but I actually think we could win this one.
If we play like we did last week.

[matrix]

Believe jimmy had a needle in the foot or ankle avid, early in last weeks game.
Word has it
its confirmed somewhere around here.

[Con Gorozidis]

After SW's interview today, I think there will be 3 changes

B: Geary, Simpkin, Dempster
HB: Roberton, Stanley, Dal Santo
C: Montagna, Hayes, Jones
HF: Murdoch, Riewoldt, Saunders
F: Dennis-Lane, Lee, Hickey
R: McEvoy, Armitage, Steven
Int: Newnes, Ray, Curren, Wright

Love that side.
Hope so.
Stiffens us up and adds an extra runner at contests in the mids.

[matrix]

Stiffens me up a little as well.

Can't wait for sat night.
About time, sat night footy

Reckon we are a massive sniff this weekend and will be tipping us for sure

[saint6]

would really like to see curren given a chance at senior level. Have not had a chance to see a vfl game this year but remember last year when I saw sandy play that he looked like the only young saints player who had a body that was ready for afl footy. Was really suprised at how he had matured over the previous 12 months and have been expecting to see him upgraded for most of the season.
