PREGAME: Rd 02 vs Hawthorn

[Demonland 73,266]

The Demons will return to the MCG next week to face the Hawks before 2 weeks on the road in Adelaide in the lead up to Gather Round. Who comes in and who goes out?

IN: Tholstrup
OUT: Sparrow

Give Petty another week....

[Simmo0911 85]

So Brown played really well but seems to still only have a half of good footy in him. No idea how he will pull up for next week.

Judging by the public comments, Goodwin seems to think that Petty will find more form playing in the AFL than the twos. But from the people who went to the Casey game it seems like he's not going to be kicking bags for a few weeks.

How did Fullerton look yesterday? 

Second tall forward/ruck still seems the week link but I reckon Brown deserves some congrats for his game today.

[Nicko 1,383]

No change unless there’s an injury/niggle that needs managing before two games on the road in Adelaide 

[DubDee 26,191]

6 day break. Not sure how Brown will pull up

Petty or Fullarton in for Brown if needed

otherwise no change. reward the team. Sparrow was down but he deserves the chance to make up for it

Seconded

I wouldn't mind see what Tholstrup can do. Perhaps a straight swap with Woey. Other than that no change. Give Petty another week to find his feet in the twos.

I'll second getting Tholstrup in. Good match do bring him in.

Sicily is out suspended. Huge loss for the Hawks.

Sicily got a week for kicking out when he was targeted early. That is very soft. 

Expect it to be overturned at appeal

massive loss for the hawks . sicily can't seem to stay out of trouble for long no matter how many articles they write about him shedding his bad boy behaviour and becoming captain .

can't imagine we'll wield too many, if any, changes but I too wouldn't mind seeing the Kolt unleashed on the G .

It's a membership 'replacement' game, is that right?

[red and blue forever 1,056]

out Sparrow.

In Petty,

Tholstrup sub

Don't drop Sparrow. He will come good.

I don't think any changes but Petty in is tempting. Play Brown for 1 more week and then bring petty in for Adelaide games.

[Roost it far 8,802]

No change 

[Master Chief 80]

Can't see us making any changes this week unless we are forced to through injury.

[Singa 224]

We simply should not consider dropping Sparrow. Didn't have the greatest of games this week but you don't through the baby out with the bathwater. Also don't drink bathwater

Tholstrup sub

i really hope we never 'debut' a player as a sub

hate it when teams do that

[Diamond_Jim 12,642]

Obvious from training reports that BBB has a light program.

If we can get him up for next week that would be great

I see the weather is dry and 23/24 which is not too bad

No way is Sparrow getting dropped. I’ll back him in to find some form over the next couple of games. 

[Demongirl35 1,073]

Out - sparrow

In - tholstrup

sparrow sub.

Good game for tholstrup to play in I think.
