NOTE: As Tasmania is a stand alone side the 12:10 rule applies and Sandringham is restricted to a maximum of 12 Melbourne listed players.

Five Sandringham players have made the VFL state squad although I'm not sure that Shane Valenti now qualifies as he is on Melbourne's senior list:-

• Rod Crowe

• Ezra Poyas

• Nicholas Sautner

• Peter Summers

• Shane Valenti

Well only 7 have been named on the ground so there'll be 11 with the guys on the bench I presume

Unless there's a fitness test for some of the Sandy players. There'd be some doubt over the availability of Yze and Whelan. No Newton either... still no word on the extent of his 'injury'. There's also the possibility that we'll take two emergencies to Adelaide and they won't play on Saturday.

Who do the reserves play?

Nobody. They have a bye.

Poor Wheels, what in the world is going on

WTF, is Juice still alive or what?

WTF, is Juice still alive or what?

Strange indeed that Juice has not been selected to play the last two weeks after serving his one week suspension.

Of course, CJ wasn't selected to play and turned up in the team against Williamstown so who knows what the hell's going on with team selection and our players these days?

There might be some interest in one of Tassie's young players Aaron Cornelius who is expected to be a high draft pick in November - Devil duty calls despite workload.

Juice got a big knock to his shoulder at training earlier this week so he'll be out for a week or two. It wasn't anything too serious.

On his facebook his update says" does anyone want to donate a knee to me plzz! hmm i think there is suthing wrong with him that we dont know...

Anybody know if the game is being covered on a radio station?

You could try 936 Hobart which has local sport with Peter Newlinds from 11am at http://www.abc.net.au/hobart/radio/player....m.asx?width=650 (although the game's on at Launceston).

Anyone know the live scores?

Cheers Lucy, sounds as if they're going to pick it up from the third quarter. News is on at the moment.

Sandy: 7.7.49

Tassie: 4.4.28

Former Bulldog, Robert Groenewagen is being interviewed on Tassie’s ABC Grandstand. He says Tassie started a little slowly but worked their way in front late in the first quarter. The momentum has swung back Sandy’s way and they now have streaked away 9.11.53 to 4.6.30 (and I thought no Valenti, no Sandy!). The weather's better down there than it is in Melbourne!

He’s also speaking about the success of the Tasmanian Under 18 team which has won all three games in the Under 18 championships (Div 2) and now goes on to the First Division and will play SA on the Adelaide Oval in its next game.

Hawthorn which plays four home games at Launceston has more than 40% of the local Auskickers registering as Hawk supporters. It seems to me that this idea gives some credence to the concept of establishing a base at Casey Fields where the population is growing enormously.

How balls is it that they're broadcasting from the game but not actually calling it? I turned it off. No point wasting work's bandwidth for that pile of yawn.

On the Hawks memberships/Auskick registration, that doesn't surprise me at all. They had a big following down here already. I reckon their partial move down here has been a huge win for both their club and footy in Tasmania as a whole.

It is a bit of a yawn. Pity you folk down in Tassie - you're missing out on the Coodabeens!

Half time:

Tasmania 4.4.28 4.6.30

Sandringham 3.6.24 10.12.72

I was wrong about the Coodabeens. Apparently they're going to cross to them after 1pm. They're now interviewing the great Tasmanian cricketer Brett Jeeves who's played one game for the Delhi Daredevils in the IPL. Awesome stuff!

Geeves is actually a pretty popular character down here. He's always been promising cricketer but this season finally delivered. Don't forget it's a Tasmanian radio station you're listening to Jack.

Is anyone staring for Sandy (particulary demon players)?

You're right by Geeves or is it Jeeves?
