Looks like Viney, Lever and Weideman will go out and Dunstan, Smith and Brown in.

Doubt Dunstan. Sparrow will put in more on ball minutes to cover Viney. His big chance. Also Brayshaw....

Weed is in the starting 18 so he plays. Forward line with Brown, weed and t-mac is fraught with danger. It surely won't line up like that though. I don't like having lever out of the side and this only reminds me of what a load of [censored] these hs protocols are.

Doesn't Weid being named in the 18 mean he's definitely playing though?

That’s what I thought. 
 

It seems that T Mac might be pushed back.

Interesting that they have Brown replacing Viney thought Dunstan would get a go. Brown should be in the VFL we are now too tall.

Protocols end tomorrow night, maybe they have it.

The protocols ending wouldn't mean that anyone in them before then just gets to walk out though I wouldn't think.

Also the AFL would have to allow the unnamed players to play.

I doubt that that team is set… although it confusing and it leads one to think that we are playing all three tall fwds.

Final teams by tomorrow evening i believe so the starting 18 is still open.

Gut feel instincts (ie; throw a dart)...

Smith possibly coming in for Lever,  Bedford for Viney with Sparrow / Harmes to share more of the Viney role between them?  Mostly Sparrow.  Harmes still playing his usual hybrid MF/HF role with a little more bias toward MF minutes?  Bedford to get a bit of MF time with these two but more as a high HF/Mid when these two are off and or pushing forward.

Terrible luck if Viney and Lever are just close contacts and missed the end of the BS rules by 1 day!

I'm not going to waste too much time on suggested ins and outs 3 days away from a game when we already have 2 players out with H & S protocols. A lot can happen between now and then.

Why not mate, we’ve been doing it for days already! 😂

Not a fan of Dunstan getting a run. I would rather move Brayshaw into the middle, keep Jordon and Langdon on the wings, and move Bedford onto the bench. It just looks unresloved and messy with that many names on the board.

A late withdrawal of one of Weid, TMac, Brown or possibly Jackson isn't beyond the realms of possibility

We don’t play those games.

Well, the pecking order in the back line has become a little clearer but Brown, McDonald and Weideman up front? 

Tom Sparrow to take Viney's spot in the middle? 

As for the oppo other than Rioli I've never heard of any of their ins.

Yes we do. Lever was out earlier in the season on the quiet and pulled out ‘at the last minute’.

We’re a footy club, not saints.

Based on the 18 picked

IN Smith and Brown

OUT Viney Lever

T Mac to play back/utility. We do look tall but. 

Posted

With 2 forced changes do we want to take a total of 3 out of a winning side? (that is also 5 & 0)

So T-Mac & Weid to stay with T-Mac going back? 

Bedford comes in you'd imagine along with BBB

Dunstan as the sub?  Or maybe Smith for some added versatility (if needed)

Goody has already said we wont play 3 key forwards. I wont put any thought into the 18 named on field and just absorb the outs and wait until the final 22 is announced tomorrow. Shame about the 2 out for protocols but it is what it is. Will be interesting to see how they cover Viney’s midfield time.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
