Interesting not picking Weideman. Must be defensive efforts, looked like he moved well and offensively obviously not an issue

[old dee 23,787]

Looks like we have gone with the basic crew that have wine the first first five games. 

[Fanatique Demon 2,642]

All of our discussion and speculation about Weideman and Brown down the drain. When will the selectors listen to us? ?

[JTR 2,846]

I hope Sparrow is released from sub duties and allowed to go back to Casey for some game time

[Demonstone 22,484]

Once again, Yokozuna on the money with his info.

Petty named as emergency, so not injured as we thought.  My nomination for sub this week would be Chandler.

[Diamond_Jim 12,568]

Fritsch' availablity was unexpected.

Interesting selection but perhaps understandable for a night game. Wonder if they were tempted to play M Brown one more time.

Jordon can consider hmself lucky

Did we ever confrm whether Petty was or was not injured?

[Lucifers Hero 39,736]

I would go with Petty as the medisub as Sparrow had it last week and shouldn't miss two games.  Weideman can do with another game at Casey to press his case.  Similarly with Chandler.  Also Petty can fill in for Fritsch or May if necessary.

[Damo 3,355]

Chandler makes sense. Id play Weid and BBB in the early game.

I’d say he would. Chandler will be sub I’d say 

[WA Demon Boy 966]

I suppose I like the no Weed inclusion now that I think about it. 

We need pressure and speed on ground i50. 

May back is gigantic. 

 

[Pates 9,660]

Wow was not expecting that! Given Goodwin said both were fit to be picked I would've really expected us to bring in one of Weid or Brown.

That said, I'm very happy with the Ins vs the Outs. Our forward line definitely looked off a step against the Hawks and I attribute a lot of that to Fritta and his running patterns. He was just starting to find his radar when he hurt himself so hopefully it's on song this week.

May back for Petty was always going to happen if May was passed fit. Herculean effort by him to get up for this match.

Brown and Weid made to bide their time, let's see how they go against the Tigers in the VFL this week.

I like that we didn’t tamper with our fwd structure to fit weid or brown in, sooner or later either through injury or form they will get a chance

Super human recovery from both guys. 
I hope Fritsch is right to go, because he’s a defensive liability if he isn’t leading and marking. 

[kev martin 9,882]

Well, they really have to earn the spots now, as well as having pressure for places. 

Give Sparrow a run in the two's, Weids as well, Petty or Chandler as sub, probably Chandler.

The structure and system will be our weapon if we start losing.

All know their roles and cohesion should be improving.

They would have talked to Weids about consistency. 

Congratulations Jonesy, please show us some of your magic.

IN MY VIEW  Fritsch will be a late scratch and Weid will play.

Not really. 11 last quarter possessions last week. Looks like he belongs at this stage

[Damo 3,355]

Maybe Petty as sub. Can play forward or back/

[Lil_red_fire_engine 11,166]

Great ins and no need  to rush back Weid or Brown and push out an undeserving player or messing with the team balance. Chandler for sub I would expect.

P2J, can you please preface these types of posts with 'imv' so they don't come across as factual.  Cheers.

To be honest, I don't think that is necessary. 

[Demon Dynasty 17,109]

Wrapped to see these two back.

My only worries...are they both back a game too early?

May copped a massive knock and Fritta with a hand that surely can't be 100% ready either.  He might not need that hand for the ball drop but he'll sure need it for marking and tackling attempts.  I realise the FD is all over these things and i defer to their better judgement of course but that nagging doubt still lingers.

Should have a pretty fair idea how they're both traveling by half time anyways.
