titan_uranus 25,323 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 We have to reduce the number of talls, especially given we've got Essendon who don't have one ruckman, let alone two. I'd say in that regard Spencer is on the chopping block. Other than that, Bail, M Jones and Howe need to be looked at, Brayshaw might not get up, and I'm not sure how ANB and Stretch will pull up after the Darwin game. Casey played well today so hopefully there are some players to choose from. I'm not sure whether Michie and Newton have done enough at Casey to get recalled - they have been sent down there for a reason I assume, and I don't know whether they have fixed whatever they've been asked to fix. Who else is there? Harmes? Will Lumumba be fit?
Wilson7 2,689 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 In: Lumumba, JKH, Newton, HarmesOut: Brayshaw (inj), Spencer, Bail, M.Jones
MadAsHell 4,217 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 Assuming Gus pulls up ok & Lumumba recovers from his mystery injury, I'd make 3 changes for next week. IN: Fitzpatrick, Kennedy-Harris, Lumumba OUT: Bail, M. Jones, Spencer FB: Dunn, T. McDonald, Jetta HB: Garland, Fitzpatrick, Cross C: Lumumba, N. Jones, Tyson HF: Brayshaw, Dawes, Kennedy-Harris FF: Howe, Hogan, Garlett FOLL: Gawn, Vince, Viney INT: Neal-Bullen, Toumpas, Watts SUB: Stretch EMERG: Harmes, Newton, Spencer Harmes to debut if either Gus or Lumumba aren't right. Newton stand-by for the other.
MadAsHell 4,217 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 In: Lumumba, JKH, Newton, Harmes Out: Brayshaw (inj), Spencer, Bail, M.Jones Hoping Gus will be ok.
Jaded No More 68,976 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 He's gone to hospital so I highly doubt we'll see him next week Not worth the risk even if he is ok
Skuit 10,031 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 Spent the whole of last week arguing for Fitz inclusion at the expense of Spence but yet would consider the current ruck tag-team in this one. Horses for whatever I'm going to bed.
DeeSpencer 26,742 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 4 outs are pretty simple, Brayshaw injured, Spencer, Bail, Matt Jones. Howe as well if we can find a replacement. Finding 4 or 5 ins is harder. JKH. Lumumba if fit. Harmes. Fitzy. Grimes if fit. FB: Dunn Fitzy Jetta HB: Garland McDonald Lumumba C: Watts Jones Toumpas HF: ANB Dawes Tyson FF: Garlett Hogan JKH Foll: Gawn Viney Vince Int: Stretch Cross Grimes/Howe S: Harmes Might be the week to try one of McDonald, Garland or Dunn forward as well if we can get Fitzy, Lumumba and Grimes in the side.

Soidee 1,496 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 Out - Howe, Howe Howe.....how many non effort games does he need before he is dropped
chook fowler 19,800 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 Jettas form is a worry - has done very little this year.
The team we love 416 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 Jettas form is a worry - has done very little this year. Tell me who he played on.
The Song Formerly Known As 6,479 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 Jettas form is a worry - has done very little this year. except beat his man virtually every week. Plus he also had a month out with concussion.
DeeSpencer 26,742 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 Positive tweet from Brayshaw. XRays all clear. Don't want to risk him if there's any doubt but if he's good to go he'll certainly stay in. He'll have fresh legs that's for sure.

Don't want to risk him if there's any doubt but if he's good to go he'll certainly stay in. He'll have fresh legs that's for sure. we bloody missed having him out there today. Goes to show what a star he can potentially become if the loss of a 19 year old who has only played 12 games, affects our team so much.
Bang Bang Bang 5,900 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 Pleasing news re. Brayshaw. I expect him to play next week then. In. Lumumba, Fitzpatrick Out. Bail, Spencer Lumumba is a given, and can come in for Bail who has been pretty hopeless all year. Can't kick, can't mark and can't tackle properly. Tries hard and runs hard but he's the first out. Fitzy is just a little bit more flexible than Spencer. We can throw him onto Daniher if Tommy Mac or Dunn get carved up. We can throw him forward and he can help out in the ruck. Spencer competes but is a dinosaur and fairly useless in most areas. Matt Jones can stay, but him being a mainstay at the moment just makes me want vanders, Salem and Kent to hurry up and get fit. I'd consider bringing back the more skillful Newton too.
Wadda We Sing 10,685 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 If Lumumba and Grimes are fit Id be tempted to send McDonald to the Magoos to find some form, we really need him to fire up.
Disco Demons 92 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 Drop Spencer, Bail, M Jones, Dawes In, Lumumba, Max king, Newton, Mitchie
SaberFang 7,151 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 So are we just playing Howe to keep his currency up? Because seriously, he could not be more obviously out the door. Sick to death of these pea hearts playing for us that obviously have no intention of getting us off the bottom.
Ted Lasso 19,586 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 Out: bail, jones, spencer In: grimes, lamumba,kennedy-harris
Bang Bang Bang 5,900 Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 So are we just playing Howe to keep his currency up? Because seriously, he could not be more obviously out the door. Sick to death of these pea hearts playing for us that obviously have no intention of getting us off the bottom. I think it's partly this, and partly because we have nobody that can replace him. A disinterested Howe is still a much better option than one of the usual suspects from the 'trash can', and all of our kids that are even close to ready for the AFL are playing already. He might be in trouble when (if) our injury list starts to shrink.
