So hopefully Yze/Williams will stay on? You'd imagine Yze stock would go up (even) more if he stayed with us.

I know, just lamenting. Was quite happy seeing happy Dees fans in the crowd last week, hopefully the same continues for the rest of the season.

Still with a shot for the AFL GM Football role, so potential a short stay at the bombers.

Does seem odd to count it, Still pretty funny we have used the medical sub the least but had it used against equal top.

Why did I make the mistake of opening this thread :(

"Scenes from quarantine in Perth." (Watching Brisbane game)

One injury could be all it takes to open a door, can't really predict that. Imagine the players will now be judged on training - not sure if they'll be having scratch matches or anything. A lot of days to go until the Prelim let alone the Big Dance.

They've sent everyone across to the hub. There are a lot of names fighting to dethrone JJ of the Medi-Sub spot. Harsh if it is not JJ but hopefully they judge it on how people are training more so than romanticism. Either way we've only activated the sub 5? times this season and one of which was for the last minute of the game aha

Yeh that confused me a little. On first viewing there didn't seem to be a lot on the ones called against Harmes, and then Lever was slammed to the ground and that wasn't called, then one in favour of Harmes was called. I'd need to re-watch again but thought the Lever one was the most dangerous on first viewing.

In one of my group chats a message about Oliver is quoted every Melbourne Game. the message is along the lines of "Put your arms down Oliver you (nasty expletive)"

Out: Fritsch In: Smith Whoops sorry, still having nightmares from 2018, I think If Hunt is right, then he should be back in for Smith. Pig v Bowey the interesting one but guess it depends on opponent and how Hunt tracking.

Like the old cricket saying "Ashes to Ashes, dust to dust, if Thomson don't get ya, Lillee must". They all play a part, even if one is quiet.

Yep, Daw & M. Brown played a combined total of 1 game. If Weid is off we may see Petty up forward and then Gunston probably next in line? Would be good insurance policy provided the deal is right and also if body is right. We're likely losing the messiah Burgo so need to be a little cautious.

Understandable, My main point was defensively I think Angus does a great team role as you can see by his intercept possessions/spoils. He does have some clangers by foot but reads the position well and plays a big role for the team. I'm just a bit cautious that if we replace with someone with superior polish there is a risk that of losing that specific cog/role that Gus is playing. I could be wrong, any replacement might be able to do both, but a risk to change a formula that has taken us to the minor premiership

Just looking at some season stats for the year; We finished 6th for Goals Scored but won the minor premiership for Points scored narrowly pipping the Bulldogs by 2 points

He's currently in the best 26 fit players based on the team for this week. Hunt being back may change that a little. Necessary back up to have (especially in a hub situation) in the event of injuries/suspensions.

Yeh valid point. They'll never do it but reckon they should have a minimum ToG % in a position to be eligible for it. Also think they need more variety on the bench instead of just pandering to the mids. Make it mean more to be selected etc

Reckon They'd put Stringer over Fritsch in a 'true position' lineup. If Salem kept up his form throughout the season (and no soreness) he'd probably have pipped Rich. Would be interesting to see which Mid would fall out if they did place Bont/Trac in Mid tho

I think people want to see an Ed Langdon running clone on the other wing. Gus plays his role and we've won the minor premiership, don't really want to tinker too much in that department

Clarry deserves it but a little concerned about some other Dees grabbing some of the votes off him. 1. Ollie 2. Bont 3. Wines Seeing Wines up and about in these lists, I Can only think about Jimmy Toumpas.

I am getting jabbed on Sunday but due to the timeframe involved won't be double jabbed before any Grand Final, not that WA would let me in. If we do make it and win, would be happy enough for my GFG to be transferred into DemonShop Credit aha.

'Ken Oath - Last year it felt weird waiting for the final, think my insides would explode waiting for the dees to play if they made it.
