Damn look at that backline!

How times have changed.

brock mclean emergencies? wat were they smoking at the time?

He'd been injured since round 1 hadn't he? Think he was close to playing and ended up playing the next week against the Kangas.

Don't know why you would put a player as an emergency when he's injured.

You either wait til he's fit and play him, or leave him out of the team.

Exactly what I was thinking. Unusual to see a name like that as emergency. They must of been waiting to see if he come up from an injury. Even more unusual to see him named as emergency playing in Perth. The backline has had a face lift!

Wow, it's been a long time. Obviously we lost, but does anyone remember by how much?

Lost by about 12 or 13 goals, but amazingly TJ got 1 brownlow vote and Sylvia played a classy cameo with 3 goals.
