With Garlett out we have very few avenues to goal. Just threw $50 on a big win for North. We are going to get done this weekend. Disappointing start to the season after so much promise!

Dont despair, he will be back ready to go vs the FIlth and I expect to be 3-2 after 5 rounds 

We will bat the FIlth and Ninthmond

It's just poor timing. We are struggling with attack at the moment. Garlett is the one constant who always gets a few goals. We really need Kent, Vandenburg and others to hit the scoreboard and spread the load. With Hogan down on form and getting double teamed due to slow ball movement it becomes really important those others chime in.

I think it's sadly, a pretty safe bet.

Yep - just like we were a sure bet last week.

Possibly.  However, if you play Frost down back then I think it makes it harder for him to give Max a chop out in the ruck.  It would leave one of their tall forwards with a smaller type player and I'm not sure that's what we want.  Bringing in Wagner might mean that Frost still plays forward (if picked) and Lumumba acts as the third tall, with Wagner and Salem providing the run across half back.

Unless they just get Frost to follow Brown around the whole time and follow him into the ruck when Goldstein has a spell?

Just means Gawn goes head2head with Goldstein the whole match except when they're both on the bench.

I still think Garlett 100% plays.  

It wouldn't surprise to see Pedersen dropped for someone like Stretch, although I'd feel as though we were one tall short, unless they plan on playing someone like Lumumba on Waite.

So I'm on fire this week... :wacko:

What's with the [censored] communication? No wonder the club isn't respected when they spill [censored] like 'he will be 100% fit' then 2 days later he is ruled out

 

Are you really silly enough to think that is what leads to a lack of respect?

They all do it.

100% playing is akin to "he has the full support of the board". Always to be taken with a grain of salt and usually means the opposite of what is said.

Embarrassing form from Mission.

Clearly overruled by the coaching group. Embarrassing.

Look on the positive side you can get that $50 back by putting $10,000 on North to win as they have an even better chance of beating us now.

Misson.........A clever tactic to fool the norf selectors and win the game!

Billy is in the team, did he play for Casey last week?

He did Petracca, he was pretty average

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
