There should be a dislike button for comments like that Bugg is a spud.

 

He's not you know but your over reaction is almost amusing.

Even if you kick 1:4 .. it means you have got the ball in the scoring zone 5 times...........not bad

I have only seen the first half on TV.

WTF suggesting that Burnie gets KOd for that?  NOT high and no consequence though the lying CFC doc after last year will no doubt say that the "victim" was severely concussed, broke his neck and will never play again.

Will Vince get a fine or cop a week?  Jumping off the ground is a bad sign. But Thomas was ok and only hit him in the chest

Wouldn't think he'd cop either. You can jump as high as you like providing you make legal contact. As you say, got him in the chest, no free paid & Thomas (to his credit) bounced straight up

A hit like that is a thing of great beauty

You’d think Jeff comes in for indigenous round. Spargo rested?

Facepalm. You saying this leads to the obligatory...

Tbh I hope that the round means less than zero to the match commitee.

I wpuld play spargo and rest after alice if needed.

...and the allusion that if he does play it will be because he is indigenous...

NO CHANGE

Garlett won't get a game just because it's indigenous round he has to earn it. 

 

Garlett has been stiff and if he breaks in to play in this huge game it will be because the MC think he is the best option for one of the best teams in the league.

God I hope we beat this mob well, the amount of crap I’v heard from Adelaide fans this year about Lever. Plus living in Adelaide doesn’t help.

Can someone tell me why the player dropped from last week would be made cary-over emergency this week?

Tyson was obviously dropped for performance reasons, yet he isn't given the opportunity to work on those areas the following week in the reserves.  And to add insult to injury, they (Casey) were playing an insipid team which would be the perfect chance for Tyson to work on his game.

I rarely criticise the coaching/selection/etc, but this decision is just plain poor.

$1.87 favorites v the crows how did that happen

The Cows have no Walker, McGovern, Sloane and Crouch brothers. No reason why we can’t win this well.

Who were the other emergencies? Pedersen has missed games and deserves a crack at getting back in the team, as do Garlett and Hunt, two guys close to the best 22 if not in it. I'd suggest they picked Tyson as he was the best emergency we had and if there was an injury pre game or coming in to next week to any of the midfielders he'd come straight back in. Belting Frankston would do little for Tyson, he needs the best quality opponents at VFL to play against. As long as they rotate the carry over players I really don't care how they structure it.

Only an opinion but maybe it had something to do with Oliver’s broken finger suffered last week and surgery on Monday. 

If there was a chance Oliver couldn’t come up Tyson would be the most logical replacement.

Bernie shouldn’t go for his bump but then NikNat shouldn’t have gone for his tackle so you never know. 

No change. 

think bernie will get a fine. .....only because thomas bounced up straight away like nothing happened

After 109 point win, and I’m still grinning, normally wouldn’t make any changes, but I would give Spargo a rest next week and bring in Garlett.

Spargo has been going really well and is very competitive but looked a little tired today in the 2nd half.

Bernie stays on for Crows and that hit on Thomas is a bit of what he brings every week, and every really good team always has a few tough players.

Yep, lock it in. Garlett will come in for Spargo. Spargo will be “managed”..

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
