Okay, it's early, but lets have a think....

Green is out.

Davey is in.

Other changes? White? Frawley? Bode? Petterd?

Nathan Carroll is a WA boy, might like to play at home....

out Bruce (age 28)? That would leave Whelan (28) & Wheatley (26) as our only players over 26. I know we're blooding youth, looking to the future, but I think, especially with Green gone, Bruce is essential this Sunday.

If Junior comes up it will have to be...

In - Davey, McDonald

Out - Bell, Green (inj)

Petterd to get the nod if Junior doesn't take his spot.

Need to get Jones out of the midfield this week. He is stale. I'd put him on the HFF and see if he can repeat his four goal effort in Brisbane.

B: C Johnson, Warnock, Whelan

HB: Bruce, Martin, Garland

C: Davey, McDonald, Whealtey

HF: Bate, Miller, Jones

F: Sylvia, Newton, Wonaeamirri

Foll: Jamar, Buckley, Valenti

Int: Bartram, Dunn, P Johnson, Morton

How did Petterd go last week? Did he impress?

I think I read somewhere (might have been Hannabal's observations) that Petterd's good work off half back was the main reason Sandy stayed competitive. I also read that his class was once again on display for all to see. Exciting to have him on the way back. Tie him up on a 3 year deal before those GC mugs come a-knockin.

No reason not to keep it simple.

Out: Green

In: Davey

I wouldn't be fussed to see Petterd come in either. I can see the merits in both selecting him and leaving him at Sandy. (Hrmm, that sentence doesn't really read very well...)

It makes sense.

He's missed a lot of football. Id give him another week to get some confidence and play him in Melbourne the following week if form permits.

Yeah. If this week was in Melbourne, I'd put Petterd in. Don't know if you want to bugger his confidence by playing him straight up against a parochial Wanchor crowd.

Why Bell?

Already fought his way back into the team. Had 19 touches at 94%, 6 tackles and played pretty well on BJ

I don't think he will be a part of the MFC in the future, I would like to see Petterd given a run. Given those stats maybe I'm being a bit harsh but BJ isn't in the greatest of form anyway, and when I was at the match I didn't think Bell was playing particularly well.

bell got dropped, did his work and has come back and played a good game. why would he be dropped?

davey for green is obvious. if mcdonald is ready to come back he will probably get a run but given the way we have made players come through sandy this year, and given he has been out for 3 weeks now, it wouldnt surprise me if he has to have a run there too...

Fair enough then.

Out of interest, do you see Wheels as a part of our future? If so, for how long?

And what about Newton?

It is tough to give ins and outs for our team, they're all 12!!

Your talking out of Uranus! :lol:;) , BJ is an all-aust who is not that out of form. He needs to be covered. Bell did a good job. 95% efficiency, deserves another game. That's what Bailey has asked his players, to go back to Sandy and learn their trade, come back in and set them a job. Just on Bell - how did Brad Johnson go? He had no influence.

How did Petterd go last week?

If you want to bring him in, and drop someone for an average game perhaps Wonaemirri or Newton. But not Bell.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
