'He was taken off the ground at three quarter time due to some stuff at AFL level that we just needed him to be ready for but we were really happy with Grimesy.'

 

I reckon he was on standby for Jetta, who looked out of sorts on Monday. Injured? Sick?

In: Grimes, Michie, Harmes.

Out: None

 

We could potentially see an unchanged team on Sunday, it depends on how everyone pulls up after the 6 day break.

Surprised Hunt is not mentioned as a possible candidate for omission . Whilst he is intermittently spectacular , he surprises on  a weekly basis with his low disposal numbers .  I would love to see Grimes get an opportunity .

Watch the game and have a look at his impact. I wouldn't have thought it needed saying that its not about disposal numbers. Josh Gibson regularly gets low disposal numbers. Do you think the Hawks would omit him for it? Or Cyril....

Last time we had a 6 day break Roos say they erred by not changing the team, can't see him not changing it....

True, but the weekend before the players had a nine day break which would pretty similar to having a week's rest so the players shouldn't be nearly as tired this time around.

Agreed.  Also, I thought Hunt was very good in damp conditions vs Hawks.  He thru himself at everything and kept the ball on the ground.  That doesn't count in his stats as he attacked the ball not (tackled) a player.  Think he knows how to play on a damp surface.  Keep him in.

Talking of the Hawks game, hope our guys remember to not bounce the ball - it doesn't bounce on damp surface!  The poor bounce Hogan got in the goal square while comical would have been tragic had Kent (I think) not come along and kicked it through.
