Gameday - Melbourne v St Kilda

[titan_uranus 25,020]

Final teams are in. No changes to either side.

Matthew Bate is our sub. That surprise me a bit, he doesn't offer a heck of a lot of run. I guess we're going down the Petterd path as we did in Round 1.

Jamie Cripps is St Kilda's sub.

Looking forward to seeing Evans take to the field, and McKenzie making his return. I'm glad they're both in the 21.

A horrible sub selection, does not offer what a sub needs to offer

[John Crow Batty 8,871]

Just about every sub this season appears to be the guy who lost the coin flip for the final position on the selected 21. Does not appear to be any rational thought processes applied to who will make a useful sub.

Rubbish sub. Against a slow team on a fast ground we chose the slowest player in the side to be our sub.

No idea what Bailey is doing.

Better than him playing the whole game then right?

A few thousand punters including myself stranded at Flinders Street waiting for the 1:40 to Glen Waverley to arrive. Apparently 5 minutes late but now scheduled to leave ten minutes after advertised departure. Can't believe Metro's contempt for its consumers. All it takes is one train to go one stop further.

Anyway, I hope we don't miss anything.

Having Bate as sub means he won't be a 'gear' off the pace like he usually is...

With that said - I would not have had Petterd as sub against Sydney but he aided a change in momentum that nearly won us the game.

[stuie 7,374]

And the good news about Bate being sub is that either Jordie or Evans will play a whole game, that's encouraging at least.

[DaveyJones'sLocker 647]

Bate is lucky to be getting a game IMO

Happy with him as sub

[jnrmac 20,097]

Petterd has a shot - misses everything!

Competetive.

They're saying Tappy 3-5 weeks

[jnrmac 20,097]

Anyone there??

[Bonkers 994]

Davey one touch at quarter time. Bailey needs to make a move to free him of the tag.

[Jack son 5 162]

Cant help but feel we should be 3 goals up. St kilda are really bad. What's that make us?

Jack Watts great first QTR.

Go dee's.
