Changes v GWS - Round 21 @ MCG

[daisycutter 29,621]

westrup to debut

[Grimes is Great 183]

Grimes to HFF sounds like a good idea as defensive forward. Got nothing to lose...

[Moonshadow 17,676]

Moloney in.

All is forgiven.

[Biffen 12,944]

westrup to debut

Really a leaps and bounds project.

Mostly backwards.

Do you want to elaborate? Agree JKH couldn't make an impact, but it wasn't from the lack of trying

Unfortunately, yes it was.

He looked like he didn't care a lot on the weekend. Disinterestedness was plastered across his face unless he was able to get out in space and present. There's more to AFL than that, especially when you're playing against the best of the best.

I'm not advocating dropping him as I think (hope?) it was an aberration and that, usually, he makes us a better side.

Grimes as a Co - Captain will come straight back in if fit to play so there will be one change at least.

Our turnovers just went up by 25%

[AzzKikA 2,371]

I really think Grimes needs to earn his spot back, before he was injured he was playing terrible footy.

I really would love to see Watts get dropped, so sick of his lack of desire for the ball, it's getting worse. But sadly this will not happen.

And people are saying M.Jones is tired, didn't he just get back into the team? So he should have a cup of warm milk and a lay down for a weekend? WTF?

Leave the team as is, have JKH as the sub.

Out: top deck of all the stands at the G

In: plenty of car park spaces

[Maggot 1977 263]

Hogan In - just putting it out there early

[Mousey 47]

Hogan to make return for Scorps this weekend. More on afl.com.au soon according to Ben Guthrie

[Maggot 1977 263]

Damm I was close

[What 18,810]

In further positive news for the Demons, young midfielder Jimmy Toumpas is also expected to return for the Scorpions this weekend.

Hoges and Toump both back

Hope they play well and come into the MFC team for the final 2 games

[AzzKikA 2,371]

Hoges is back!!!!

I reckon JKH might possibly be showing the effects of long hard season on a kid playing against men for the first time. Nothing more!!

Damm I was close

Yes as about as close as I am to winning Tattslotto

[Moneider96 1,045]

you almost won the Tattslotto?

[rpfc 28,537]

you almost won the Tattslotto?

No, he didn't.

That's the joke...

[binman 43,131]

No, he didn't.

That's the joke...

I think he got the joke and was making one

[Moneider96 1,045]

oh wow....

[rpfc 28,537]

I think he got the joke and was making one

I know, and I then did the same, and then allowed someone to make a joke on my joke thinking it was a non-joke.

Oh mawwww goddddddd. Mind blown

[Moneider96 1,045]

Apparantly according to the radio, BOTH Melbourne and GWS are desperate to lose this game, to get Petracca. They're obviously speculating but it's interesting that people still perceive us this way.

Whose "the radio"?

The Saints have last spot all but sewn up. It's very difficult to see them winning any of their three remaining games.

Both sides will be out to win. People who say anything different are simply pot stirring.

[Chook 15,013]

The worst thing about the whole tanking situation is that from now on any time a team might conceivably benefit from a loss, any loss they actually DO have will be looked at suspiciously.
