30% chance of rain, with a possible fall of 0 to 0.4mm. Don't think it's a factor. -
That's classic straight bat Goody though. Personally I don't think you judge how the tall forwards are performing based purely on total shots on goal. Don't think you'd find many who would say they're happy with Ben Brown's form and fact is he has barely contributed to the forward line even taking into account non-scoring efforts. We need him in reasonable form by finals, if he can't find it this week then it's back to Casey IMO.

Huge test for Ben Brown. Out of form for some time and now very little tall support around him in a big game against a quality opponent. Would love to back him in, but I've not seen much from him this year to warrant any faith. If he doesn't fire this week he absolutely must play VFL next week to try and find some form before finals.

INS – Max Gawn, Luke Jackson OUTS – Sam Weideman, Mitch Brown (omitted)

Personally I'd leave in Weid ahead of Brown, but I just have a feeling role wise they may favour Mitch Brown given it will be purely a forward role rather than a forward/ruck role. Not sure it's going to be 'wet'. Forecast I saw was for possible showers in the morning.

Can't see us leaving Ben Brown without much help given his form for most of the year. Think one of Mitch Brown or Weideman stays and given Mitch has played more as the 'pure' forward lately would think he'd get the nod. Will be interesting though as I feel Weid provides better forward pressure while Mitch seems to just bob up for his 1 or 2 'easy' goals then disappear the rest of the game. Tough call. IN: Gawn, Jackson OUT: Weideman, Bedford

Lobb is 30 before next season. Wouldn't logic tell you he's coming in to fill the gap while Jamarra and Darcy develop? No guarantee Darcy will end up a forward anyway. And that's ignoring the fact your trade s extremely lopsided and the Dogs wouldn't do it in a million years.

It's legit. Players, coaches and admin do these types of events all the time. It's a good extra earner for them and good marketing for the club.

Looks legit. Company has nearly 1500 FB followers and lots of info about previous events. FB page is here: https://www.facebook.com/t14events/ Website: https://www.t14.com.au/

Come on man.

Totally guessing, but feels like Trac has lead the way a bit with this. He was the first player I often noticed helping a player up or giving a pat on the back etc. Not sure about anyone else, but in turn I find that makes it more meaningful when you see one of them have a crack at an opposition player for doing something dirty - ie Trac's reaction to Ginnivan ducking for a free.
TBF, LH has a point about the other options available to them - Just me personally I can't see it happening.
100%. Plus, rumours are Jacko will be either a Demon or Docker anyway, so I personally don't think WC are relevant at all.
Was just giving the sort answer mate. Yes, they can split their pick or ask the AFL for special permission. Neither seem very likely this year though.
They can't trade their first round pick.
a) Don't think he has 'often' been the primary ruckman at Casey. b) I believe they're talking about his hands in and around the contest, not marking, given they're talking about disposal and go on to talk about his lack of aerial impact.
Can I say it again, they played different roles and if Gawn comes back and Jackson doesn't then it's the Weid role we need.
Mitch Brown. Then Weid plays the backup (Jackson) role as he has before.
Weid is a ruck/forward, Mitch Brown is not. If Jackson doesn't play then we need a ruck/forward. As already proven, Brown wasn't competitive in the ruck at all and Weid didn't play forward so your point is moot.
Sorry, that's rubbish. Weid had a higher hitout win percentage and at least had some to advantage whereas Brown had 0.
Well we need a forward/ruck if Jackson doesn't play, how did you see Mitch Brown's ruckwork exactly? Sorry mate, Weid stays if Jackson doesn't play.
Mitch Brown can't and won't play the forward/ruck role. If Jackson doesn't come back in then Weid will absolutely stay in and Mitch will make way. Remember the original lineup before Jackson pulled out by any chance?
