A better alternative would be that Petterd is in and the club's taken Warnock over there for insurance.

Don't stress. When it is a sunday game Gameday always just puts in the first 4 players named on the bench and our bench was PJ Jones Whelan Warnock McLean HOlland Petterd.

So although Warnock has travelled (which is normal - we always take an emergency over), I don't think there is any reason to expect Petterd to be out.

We've had panic attacks before through people drawing conclusions from the Game Day live list. It should be avoided if at all possible. The same goes for the "Flash-throttled" AFL site generally.

I hope he plays, ND said last week that we rested him as a precuation rather than a necessity so let's just wait and see.

oh so this is not the first time this sorta stuff has happened

I think the GDL "method" is to shuffle the extended bench into the selected eighteen, trouble is, the list as loaded performs a truncation which leads innocent people to make spurious conclusions. This was last year. Obviously the original instructions, devised by some Big Pond techie with no footy foresight have not changed.

Petterd has had the misfortune of being last-named on the extended bench and so is ripe for the chop, Big Pond-style (never mind the quality and detail, look at all that colour and movement).

Yeah godees is right, i think it was the port game, and i had a look at the list and warnock wasnt there, but he played against port, so there is probably no need to worry.

Yeah GDL always, for sunday games list the first 4 on the bench from the squad you get on thursdays. It's quite annoying because this website I use to get live scores for my dreamteam takes direct feeds from GDL and according to that Pedro isn't playing. <_<

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
