Cannot go into Sat nights game with same forward line as last week. We'd be mauled. If Weids or TMac is a bust replace him with BBrown in R7 ..Melb have options.

DemonLad5 1,642 Posted April 23, 2021 Posted April 23, 2021 Really hope Weideman plays to be honest. He’s the future up forward for us along with Jacko 1

Red, he wasn’t at the Captain’s Run, and my understanding is that he’ll be playing at the Punt Road end of Yarra Park tomorrow. 3 minutes ago, Redleg said: That would be amazing after 7 goals for Casey and M.

I believe people are talking about Tom Sparrow. There's photos of TMac and Lever with their kids at training today, looks like TMac trained. 1

Brown is a proven gun forward. Weid is a kid with potential who time to shine has arrived. Only one of them has a question mark over them. BBB gets the nod for me.

Its hard to know which are training days now that the season has started. Anyone know when/where training/captain's run are?

Pulp Fritschon 774 Posted April 23, 2021 Posted April 23, 2021 I am guessing Weideman would have been in if Fritsch didn't come up. Going for the team that have got us to 5-0. Fair enough too. We are very settled. The Dogs are 5-0 and they made 6 changes 1

The last time North won anything that saw them on the front page it was probably their Rnd 11, 2019 sterling win by 6 goals against the 'about to be dual premiers', the Tiges. BB kicked 5 big ones.

BW511 2,730 Posted April 23, 2021 Posted April 23, 2021 Would have been interesting hearing the chat between coaches and Weid. I reckon they would have been telling him since day one, we need you to dominate a game in the VFL. He finally does it and gets told it's not enough right now.

LJ less so as he plays ruck and I do it think the club wants weed or brown in the ruck. although weed could possibly play LJs role, just not with as much athleticism LJ is starting to hold his own in the ruck, even winning a few contests now. Is also very handy at ground level competing well. I could be wrong (a regular thing!) but i can't see how he would be anywhere near the 'Ins / Outs' radar or discussion at this stage. 3

Totally agree and I love what LJ is doing. I am not advocating he be dropped at all, I was more looking at how we would get weed and brown in the side, and I was saying if LJ was injured, that weed could play his role. 3
Bring-Back-Powell 15,531 Posted April 23, 2021 Posted April 23, 2021 Very much off topic but North are in WA which may very well be in lockdown shortly. Guess who plays North next week? 1 1

He's played 7 quarters of competitive football coming back from a significant layoff. Their conversations would have been about managing him, getting his body right and getting him back out there with a few games under his belt. 4

I always thought they had to fly back to Melbs then to Tassie.
Cards13 9,117 Posted April 23, 2021 Posted April 23, 2021 (edited) Also I know i say it every week but this is ridiculous to wait for the teams to come out, Friday and Sat should be released on Thursday at a min and Sunday games on a Friday. Edited April 23, 2021 by Cards13 2
