Anyone know why Bailey Laurie not playing?

I walked past him post game outside the MCG and his arm was in a sling

Half time and Brown apparently barely had a kick... if this continues all game, who do we bring in next week?

He's been on the bench a lot of the time so far, as has Melksham. Neither are very happy about it, but clearly seems like it's because they're being managed as high chances to be selected for AFL next week.

Edit - apparently vB as well.

Oh great. And in the meantime our opponents on Thursday are having a training run. It’s a laugh a minute at the moment

Bowery 16, Weid 12, Jetta and AVB double figures as well. 

Half Time Casey lead by a goal - 5.4.34 to 4.4.28 in an unconvincing display.

Goals Weideman 2 Grey Munro White

Disposals Bowey 16 VandenBerg  13 Jetta Weideman 12

Who are the goal scorers Weid has 2 as does somebody else and Grey has one

Weid has 2 and White, Munro and Grey have 1.

Nah, but a mate is and is passing on bits and pieces.

Surely if they knew they were going to be on limited game time they wouldn't maybe be as annoyed?

Weid misses. What a surprise.

You missed as well. The two he's kicked.

Oh, you're only following his misses? Right.

No idea, but if I had to guess I would think they would want to be playing more for a bunch of reasons: Wanting to contribute and not feel like an AFL fly-in, trying to get some form and confidence, trying to guarantee themselves a spot.

Also, it would be like an ice bath on the bench there.

Ever considered a career in comedy? You're a real funny guy.

I've yet to see a player mark up forward and kick a goal from the bench.  Someone might want to pass that on to him.  Werridee!?

This and the next few matches could be some of the most crucial in the recent (post 64) history of this club.

Freezing cold, little bit windy.

I'll steer clear of comedy if you steer clear of footy analysis/commentary. Seems like we are both equally unsuited.

Why is Casey playing White up forward instead of back where he usually plays (of late)?  He is taking a KF spot and we need to try and play both Weid AND BB into some form?  Perplexing

If Weid gets picked next week we are going backwards
