Bloody bummer about HOLLAND

Shame about Petterd. Green in for him.

would love to see frawley get a run. Holland wont play ... no one to play on

It's up on Demonology as well.

Says that it was from a text from the club.

Im an idiot sorry i meant demonology, just been on myspace so have it on the brain hhaha

Dutchie will probably get the job on Darcy.

Oh geez sorry mousey, I promise I wasn't aiming for correction, but for conformation !!!

more to the point how does ward get a game?

just when i thought things were looking up

tempted not to go now

Whats wrong with PJ playing on Darcy?

Does the Bulldogs play both Minson and Street? That is the only reason I can see for Holland coming in.

For some reason selection is always disappointing.

I agree. Ward in the starting 18? He is in purely for the run factor.

THE BULLDOGS ARE A GOOD RUNNING TEAM. SO LETS PLAY A BLOKE THAT CAN RUN (BUT CAN'T DO MUCH ELSE)! - The thought that went through Daniher's head this week.

Neale, the Bulldogs can run, but they also have the skills to hit targets!

Ward is not the answer. Why does our coach insist on playing a team to 'match' the opposition's strengths? Why can't we pick our best team and let them 'match' us?!

considering that P.Johnson, N. Jones and L.Dunn and 100% certainties to play...

the final spot will come down to one of Warnock, Holland, Frawley and Pickett...

if they decide to go for the extra tall, then it will be extremely interesting to see who of Warnock, Frawley or Holland is favoured to playing as the extra tall defender. If they go the extra tall i suggest it will be holland. If not, then obviously pickett remains in the team...

it just goes to show how much they rate frawley that he was named in the team without even playing a senior game for the zebras and being concussed during his first hitout last week. he was a certain round one starter pre-season and impressed much during preseason, so they must rate this kid...

(though while saying that, Warnock was extremely highly rated 2 seasons ago when he was named to play his first match for the club coming back from a 6 week lay-off and hadnt played a match from the reserves even to that stage... and he didnt turn out too special so...)

Such a bummer about Ricky!

I will be furious if Ward gets a run. Hopefully it's a straight swap, Green for Petterd.

Frawley is close, but I don't think they'll debut him after half a game in the VFL reserves. Maybe another week or two.

id like to see warnock against darcy, lets see what he can do

I will be furious if Ward gets a run. Hopefully it's a straight swap, Green for Petterd.

So I just saw Ward is in the starting 18.

I know that with Petterd, Wheels and Bartram out, we are missing that drive out of the backline, but given that Ward is Mr.Unaccountable, and given that he can't kick, wouldn't it be worth trying Buckley in the back pocket?

Does he have a single defensive bone in his body? Who knows. Is it worth finding out since we're 0-6 and no chance? Absolutely.

Hell, give me Bizzell over Ward!

Now that my rant is over, I'm going to assume that Holland, Pickett and Frawley will miss out.

Clearly Jones, PJ and Dunn are needed, and lets hope that Warnock is given another game.

i find it very strange that they would name frawley on the bench for the afl side after playing only half a game in the sandy reserves in which he got a broken nose, apparently a concussion and the team got belted. sounds like the treatment reserved for an established star. either they rate him very highly or they think someone won't get up and he is the cover. they won't drop pickett. so i think someone will pull out of the 18...

ND has let me down again, but there is nothing we can do and we'll just have to wait til he plays the youngsters.

Does anyone know how long ricky will be out?

Neale, the Bulldogs can run, but they also have the skills to hit targets!

Unfortuantely very true...... maybe Neale and boyz might want to pay attention to this !! from both perspectives, one to emulate, second to stop them. Something that was almost poetic about the Dees has cetainly gone awol for some time..i.e accurate and meaningful disposal, hopefully to return soon :-)

Wheres biz, why is ward there? Holland good choice i recon to play on darcy. Bit worrying seing Jones on the bench, sure hell play but still. Warnock shouldnt get another gig...frawley should but i dont think he will. I recon Moloney will be a late withdrawel personally due to his OP and not risking him on the TD surface. My prediction of thoes Moloney wont play - Jones starting on with P.Johnson, Dunn, Holland, Pickett on bench. Love to see James get a gig, highly unlikely tho

Hmmm..Ward in the team again . Its a pity about Petterd. I'm not sure whether Bizzel will be any better than Ward, The game has become to quick for him i think. Maybe if he was to play as the third tall behind carroll and Rivers i could understand.

I imagine the Danners isn't playing Newton because he has only p[layed two good games in a row. A few more and he may get a go. Buckley was average on the weekend so thats why he isn't getting a run. Its gonna be a tough game, even tougher with the inept disposal skills of Brown and Ward in the backline.

i hope Newton isn't the new steven armstrong...

armstrong played awesome in sandy every week and when he got picked he got 5 minutes game time only to dropped back down.

lets be honest, if you want to play in danihers team he has to like you

why not CJ instead of ward, at least one can kick

i think we're going to be a lot taller than the doggies. whether thats on purpose, and a good idea or not time will tell.
