You were hell bent in that McDonald would not be dropped....

Calm down

Good week off for Lever.

Lucky guess more then anything lol When Goodwin pumped up Weideman after the Giants game in reference to BB selection I knew straight away Tmac was in trouble.

McDonald dropped!

I'm excited.

Having watched those VFL games he's played he's cooked mate. Fumbles, got caught with the ball at times and lazy with his defensive ability. The likes of Chandler, Bedford, Laurie are ahead of him in terms of forms from the VFL games I've seen.

He's been quiet in all the VFL games he's played this year. It's a joke that he's even under consideration.

Once they're named in the starting 18 the only changrs that are required are from the extended bench. This is why I'm just as confused why all of a sudden all three of McDonald, Brown and Weideman are named to play when Goody specifically said they wouldn't have them all in the one team.

Speco

Only way I see the 3 amigos playing is that Luke Jackson may be a late out potentially?

Yeah I'm confused with these selections. I would have thought McDonald goes back, but then they have already named Smith as well. To see Weid, McDonald and Brown all named in the one forward line after Goody comes out publicly and says this is not even an option is head scratching. I honestly have no idea why Melksham is even a consideration. He is well past it and has been for 2 years now. He should be at the stage now where he's only named if we have significant injury list. I seriously he's an emergency and that's it. I agree with some. I don't think Dunstan will play. They'll bring in the extra runner perhaps in Bedford. If Dunstan could get a gig out with Viney out then makes you wonder if he'll even play at all this year. Like for like swap you'd think.

Bit of update on both Luke Jackson and Angus Brayshaw. https://omny.fm/shows/the-rub/tom-brownes-news-latest-on-dusty-dangerfields-inju And yes I know it's Tom Browne.....

After hearing Goodwin interviewed last night on radio and his press conference just then, there is absolutely no way Weideman will be dropped. Goody was glowing praise of Weid and no mention of McDonald Seems like now they're wanting to invest more into Weids now. In: Brown Out: Tmac

I can't wait to see both Lachie Neale and Patrick Dangerfield named as this year's All Australian wingman.

Think you'll find it was the significant injuries that retired Rockliff so quickly. He had two major knee injuries in both legs and at one stage was in a wheelchair because of this. Besides concussion, Brayshaw has been relatively injury free.

My comment was a small hint of sarcasm actually. I watched this last night. The obvious question was about his contract and he completely deflected and tried to make it more about Luke Jackson's contract then his. He played a straight bat. Obviously having some long hard thoughts about his future and seems to like the WA lure if it presents itself.

Gone

Think you're in for a rude shock. Hearing Goodwin after match press conference it certainly won't be Weideman who gets dropped.

Hibberd is well behind the pecking order now. Having a calf complaint (old man injury in footy terms) at 32 years of age doesn't bode well for him this season. Even Joel Smith who is fighting for the same spot at VFL level is ahead of him which shows how far he is behind.

First full pre season in many years. Definitely showing out in his game.

Suck it Geelong!

'Hero' is a bit of a stretch mate...

Yeah it was poor form booing him.

I think you're right with this one.
