No surprises. Hope to see Chris Johnson get another game

[Jaded No More 58,623]

Bench should be: Frawley, CJ, Morton and Valenti.

I want to see Whelan in the side, but can't justify dropping the other 4.

Valenti against Sydney seems a good fit, plus he deserves another chance.

Out: Yze

In: Valenti

[Mousey 47]

in- Valenti, whelan

out- yze, bode

Want to see how CJ backs up this week, it really is crunch time for the kid and i hope he comes through..

Out: Yze

In: Valenti

i missed the game last week but a few around here thought yze played well?

[demon_king 13]

Now we just need the Sandy team released so we can work it out for ourselves, they have been doing us a favour the last few weeks.

I agree, Valenti would be handy against Sydney who are big on stoppages.

Agree Jaded - seems as though I was one of the few who was disappointed at Adem's performance at critical points under pressure on Sunday. Let's find out what SV can do with a couple of games.

Yze made a trip up to do some work with school kids. Either it's really poor planning by the club to expose kids to a bloke that isn't going to play or.....

Or they are trying to get value for money out of his contract

I really hope they drop him. I've had enough of his selfishness and laziness. It goes against everything Bailey is trying to teach the younger players.

Your right Jaded, he's to slow & not hungry enough for todays footy, but ATM we're short on goal kickers.

How does Yze improve this?

[whelan45 202]

I wouldnt call Yze slow... i kno he aint lightning but slow is a bit rich! I think one of his qualities is he is quick on the lead n in general play he's relatively elusive, doesnt get caught with the ball often

So pleased to see Valenti in 25 - hope he makes the 22.

[Madness 44]

Bode made the 18!? You have got to be kidding me...

[Guest MFC4Life]

Bode made the 18!? You have got to be kidding me...

I know man. But Garland has showed me anything's possible. If he plays rubbish every game for the rest of the year then we can make a finite judgement. But both Garland and DB have given me faith that anything is possible if you try to be the best you can be.

Expect Frawley, Morton and Jamar to miss.

Bode will probably play.

Which isn't a shocking decision, may as well see if he can do a Garland.

Frawley out, there isn't a match up for him bar O'Keefe and he will be dominant.

I was going to say Valenti will be suited to Sydney shut down game style, but they have changed that. They are both shut down and free running, so I just want him to play. Him and Wonaeamirri could be some of our few good stories out of the year.

Match ups.

Warnock on Hall

Garland on Magic

Whelan on O'Keefe

[Gouga 512]

Whelan on O'Keefe

O'Keefe is in red hot form and will probably make a meal of Whelan with his hard running. An in-form Bell is the perfect match-up but considering he is unavailable I expect Bartram or Bode to get the task.

[AzzKikA 2,371]

Barty will probably get the job, I hope he has a cracker, imagine he locks O'Keefe out of the game, his confidence will go skyhigh.

o'keefe is a tough match up. he is very strong overhead. i dont know if either bode or bartram would get the job due to this.

[Demons 32 235]

O'Keefe is decptively tall at 188cm and is way stronger than Barty. Will throw him around, if Bartram is on O'keefe I will be astonished.

[Keepin up with the Joneses 48]

Barty will probably get the job, I hope he has a cracker, imagine he locks O'Keefe out of the game, his confidence will go skyhigh.

Bruce on O'Keefe
