We can’t continue to carry both Harmes and Melksham, I agree with your ins/outs. 

Disappointed in Harmes so far after reading good reports on him during the off-season. He came back in great shape having shed some kilo’s. 

Doesn’t help he’s been asked to pinch hit in the ruck, from what I recall he injured his shin in the north game doing just that

[shorty 233]

Biggest problem with Melksham/Harmes neither have kicked a goal. If we had capitalised on our chances against Hawthorn in 1st quarter it would have been game over same as the Roos yesterday.

It's taking all of my powers of self-control not to respond to this post in the fashion it deserves.

Glad to see you’re outraged as well PD

I assumed they were going to be released at the normal time of 6.25pm EST. 

I agreed earlier with GNF’s changes however am tossing up between Weid or Balic being the in. Stretch, Hunt and Tyson being the other ins.

Thanks for that, will give the F5 a rest until then :-)

I think Tim Smith must be seriously in the frame.. i did hear a little whisper late last week.. didn't play Casey.. can anyone clarify if he is in fact injured? 

Isnt this the game last year that Rance kneed him in the ribs?

Would have struggled to get a game anyway in my opinion.

Unless something dramatic happens I can't see him on the list next year.

I think he will only play now if injuries mean we are desperate for a tall option.

He got a 2 year contract extension until end of 2019. He ain’t going anywhere

My guess it:

In: Stretch, Weids, Tyson, Hunt

Out: Lewis, Bugg, Frost, one of: Harmes/Melksham

Makes sense to me.

Stretch and Hunt for speed. Weeds for a focal point, Tyson for clearances.

That's an improvement

I believe it is!  Maybe they want to give him the opportunity of returning the favour...!

Teams released at 6.25 pm the night before the game when neither team has played for well over a week.

The AFL is run by retards.

You mean “persons with intellectual disability” surely.

Or idiots....

Dare I ask, but did we tank it last week knowing we had 9 days and 5 days break? Knowing we had the premiers and presumably wanting to hit them hard on a big stage? Or was there enough failure in the forward line and the lack of scoreboard pressure to explain the horrible performance?

Balic is injured - hammy tightness. 

I wonder if Stretch is a clear in or designated emergency?

Frost has been mooted as being dropped
