Strange. He was named on Thursday. Saty reported that he trained lightly today.

Maybe this knee injury is what has been holding him back?

the Ox said he's been carrying this for weeks and hence why he'll be rested

[Demon Dynasty 17,135]

I can't fathom how Bail gets a game.

if I thought the same about Bail alone I'd be very happy. Unfortunately when I look through the list there's a few more than Bail

[DemonOX 8,837]

Barrett is a complete f-wit.

Jack Watts has played 100+ more AFL games than you Damien and would most likely be a far better journalist you pole smoking cretin.

wouldnt pizz on Barrett if he was on fire.

Fu#kwit of the highest order.

Geez

Tyson and Salem out now

Our injury list is brutal

It's a good thing our captain is as durable as he is.

I hope you were knocking on wood when you wrote that comment!

[Bombay Airconditioning 6,477]

Regardless I'm still backing us to win.

[What 18,810]

At least the Doggies were nice enough to leave Jack MacRae as emergency

[The Stigga 1,096]

Yeah that 1 goal loss in the dying moments last season was a complete blow out...

I'm referring to our record in the past 10 years, we've won once in the past 10 games.

[DemonOX 8,837]

The way Tyson has been playing don't think it will be a big loss tbh.

Probably be better for him to miss and try and get right.

[Bombay Airconditioning 6,477]

Geez

Tyson and Salem out now

Our depth is worse. Yes we can say those injured are "best 22" but Tyson, Viney, Salem, JKH, Kent , Frost , Petracca, they're all kids. Then Jetta then Dawes who is currently in a hole.

[Bombay Airconditioning 6,477]

Which he dug.

[McQueen 17,867]

The thought did cross my mind but I've never been the superstitious type.

I reckon we'll be up and about on Sunday.

Reckon we've been prepping for this game for a couple of weeks

Hogan (rested) and Watts (enjoying his footy again).

Easy week on the track.

Visit from the Reverend.

All intended to get us over and freshened up after the "top teams patch"...

Should come out firing.

[What 18,810]

I dont see how Fitzy and Spencer can both play, we already have Pedo as forward/back up ruck

The team looks way too top heavy against a fast running side.....

[DemonOX 8,837]

Should come out firing.

We "should" have done a lot of things the next week after a belting but didn't.

Hope u r right Paul but I doubt it.

Barrett is go get f#@/#ed

[Je Roos Salem 661]

Barrett is go get f#@/#ed

What a diquehead. Accused Watts of chickening out of playing the Hawks.

I think we will too, but we can't become the next Richmond. And by that I mean 1st qtr specialists. Top clubs don't have the luxury of picking which games they want to "get up for" they come prepared every week.

[DeeSpencer 26,463]

Bail as sub I guess. Makes some sort of sense. Leave the young players at Casey where they can have some wins. Bring on one of our best runners late even if his skills are dreadful.

Toumpas and Riley on the bench. 1 inside mid, 1 outside runner.

Fitzy down back will be interesting. Probably takes Cordy or Boyd. Frees up Dunn and Garland to stop the Dogs midfield options.

I'm not sure if Fitzy will or should 2nd ruck or if they'll leave that to Pedersen. I'd be inclined to leave Fitzy in the back 7 alongside McDonald, Dunn, Garland, Grimes, Lumumba and probably Howe.

Wouldn't you just love to slap his stupid little glasses off his stupid little face?

As did posters on these forums.

As did posters on these forums.

Who?

[Nasher 33,617]

Who?

Post #13 in this thread. No doubt where Barrett got the idea.

Damian, if you're reading this: you're a germ.

Cheers

MacRae is in the doghouse a bit over his defensive pressure. They want every player pulling their weight defensively. It's why Minson still can't get a game.
