The Demons App had Smith listed as Injured.

[Lucifers Hero 39,606]

Can't believe Baker and Smith have been dropped.  Not even emergencies.  They weren't our worst!

Jones and Gawn selected.  Expect some late changes.

Baker out??? Wtf? Sore? Rested? Injured? Surely not dropped.

Right you are, think I must have read it wrong. Calf soreness it seems. Ta!

This guy cannot take a trick. Simply cannot get a good run at it.

Kennedy Harris must be gutted.  every man and his dog is in the squad and luck for the little fella

stiff

[Soidee 1,496]

Smith is sadly injury prone.  Both Wagners named ? our depth is laughable.  Lock it in, Carlton will touch us up.  But according to Goody we are wanting to improve every week!  I say get players who hate to lose.  This group seem to comfortable and are hugged too much.

Selecting 2 x Wagners ??

Not a big fan or anything, but that's a staggering decision IMO. Best on ground last week, has form, can run, not even in the first 6 selected. Very strange.

Dropped. Pretty stiff i reckon given we really need his pace.

Just wait. We lose this one the media will be on our backs big time.

Gawn and Jones won't play but that shouldn't matter any way as they have good players out as well.

If the rest of the season is about preparing for next year, this is a crazy decision. Baker has shown signs of being a very good long term player, and we are crying out for speed.  Hard to believe either of the Wagners are a better solution to giving this kid another run.

You can only shake your head.

[binman 42,687]

Hunt on the extended bench is about right. Giving him a message.

I expect him to play but needs to step up. Not convinced bout him up forward and he drifts in an out of the game. Perhaps plonk him on the wing and tell him to run both ways.

Same goes for Hibberd in terms of giving him a message. Another who needs to go up a few levels.

Petty named in the 18. hard to figure that one out but I guess if the only change would be O Mac...  but I thought we could go with Frost, May and Hore

Definately time for K Dunk.  Pruess HAS to be in.

[ProperDee 1,698]

ANB and Petty get selected on the ground so guaranteed a game?  WTFFFFFF!

Young Baker must have run over Goody’s cat and it appears JKH then threw it on the BBQ!

Well, in all fairness, if he had run over my cat i would have dropped him as well.

If Gawn and Jones don't play that is 4 changes.  So much for developing cohesion among the team.

Maybe we want a top 1 or 2 draft pick so are Tanking!   ?

[Lord Nev 13,512]

Our VFL team would beat our AFL team this week...

Liked this post because i had typed up something similar, only to delete it a few mins ago.

When we get 1, 2 or 3 i hope we have a trade target lined up to swap it for.

We need more quality NOW, not in a few years. (ofc we also need quality in a few years, but right now is the more pressing need before our list starts its decline)
