As expected. Good to see Buckley, Dunn, Newton et al get another run.

Good to see Miller, Buckley, CJ and Frawley maintain their spots. We need to give them the chance to develop and in some cases show if they can make it. Now to seasons end is a perfect time to do this.

N.B Did not see your post SS.

yep expected this would be the only change.

Interesting that moloney is in the emergencies, may be a late swap? Holland, Moloney and Garland are the named emergencies.

Ashley McGrath comes in for Colm Begley is the only change the lions have made too.

getting excited now

good side there indeed

rats magrath in:(

Common sense selections........

Interesting that moloney is in the emergencies

Moloney's the only AFL grade small left available, unless you count Pickett. That's the only reason he's named as an emergency.

good to see B. Moloney named as an emergency too... can't be far away from a senior return...

And Miller holding down the Full Forward spot nicely. Who would have thought.

He was named there last week too. Only time I saw him up forward was when Robbo ripped the ball out of his hands for a mark 15m out. Still expect him to have first go at J Brown.

No real surprises - Moloney will probably come in if Bruce doesn't get up, and one of the other two if Carroll doesn't

I just read an article with riley talking to the media today and he said he hoped bruce would be right to play, so yeah your spot on if bruce dont get up moloney will be sure to take his place.

I found another funny quote also by riley, concerning carrol " not sure about nathan, he kind of always looks concussed so its hard to tell" hahah

Happy with the team, although I expected Pickett to be named in the 25 instead of Moloney. Very happy that Moloney is named though, I think he's a good player.

Haha, gold.

I wonder how they get on - I read on this forum that Riley had told Carroll to ditch the headband.

I have a feeling that we will lose this one

All will be revealed on the flight tomorrow.

Depending on which emergency travels to Brisbane, we will know whether Bruce or Carroll are in doubt.

Good change. We've run out of players, and now the side can finally settle

Expect Miller to start on Brown, with Newton at FF.

Amazing isn't it !!!

That sounds fairly logical........

As good as Bizz has been (named at CHB), he is not really in the same weight division has Brown, unfortunately.

Also it would be the supreme challenge for Miller.

On sen greg deenham said he highly doubts bruce will play and the news is he is not over the hammy

im tipping newton to have a blinder if that [censored] merrett plays on him

im tipping newton to have a blinder if that spastic merrett plays on him

Hope so, brought him in to my dream team this week.

On sen greg deenham said he highly doubts bruce will play and the news is he is not over the hammy

Do we know which emergency flew up to Brisbane?

If Bruce is out, I hope Moloney plays. Just to prove to all the doomsayers that he isn't finished at the highest level because of his ongoing OP.

I've heard from a source outside of the media that he won't play either, will be interesting if it's true.

He'd get killed by Brown.

With nothing to lose, Miller should go to him first up.

a mate who is at the training just sms me and said-

" Bruce is not here, Garland and moloney training! "

So there ya go

Sweet

damn i missed training

wow flippen heck is this the most youngest team we have seen during this era?

Good question Dazzle. I can't remember a younger team running out. There may well have been, but it's lost in the mists of time for me.

Not to mention the amount of games played collectively. Not a hell of a lot.
