I think that is now designated "mid year round", or "not round 12 yet round".

There is also a suggestion to rename it "the one after round 10 round".

I believe one of the AFL Commission want it named "the round before I go on my holidays round".

PS: I await the inevitable multiple further suggestions.

"almost bali time round"

I know nobody likes it but do you think they could debut K. Brown as the sub.

no, we've never debuted a player as a sub and i hope we never do

Doubt that Woewodin will play Oliver and McDonald are available

it was after 7! after 11, i'mma go with:

B: McVee - May - Tomlinson
HB: Rivers - Lever - Bowey
C: Langdon - Petracca - Windsor
HF: Neal-Bullen - van Rooyen - Billings
F: Schache - Fritsch - Chandler
Foll: Gawn - Salem - Viney
I/c: Laurie - Howes - Sparrow - Pup Brown
Sub: Woewodin

in an ideal world oliver comes in for laurie, who shifts to the sub

That defensive grid (which by the by seemed to be set up to invite the corridor kick) requires many players getting to the right spot and heaps of unrewarded running - particularly from the utility types like Laurie, nibbla, langdon, Sparrow etc.

this was the big call out for me last nite

i think we encourage teams to run and kick thru the corridor as, quite frankly, they're more likely to 'blaze' away which helps our teams with our defensive intercept game style

mac andrew super in the ruck 😠

What I find jaw droppingly confundicating is that in the Match Day thread, the only mentions that ANB got were critical of his play early on, after which there was no mention of him at all??!!! Then, to make matters worse, in the Post Game thread where posters were giving us highly detailed lists of players that impressed them and why, again not one single mention of ANB!!

The guy had 83% game time, was equal second in possessions with 23, and his tackling figures were in the top five. He worked his [censored] off for the entirety of the game, and was one of our most effective players.

He was without a doubt one of the best on ground and certainly deserving of much more credit than the Demonlanders give him.

*Scratches head*

really? i thought a lot of people were saying how incredible his workrate and defensive efforts were

which they were, and have been for a long, long time

B: McVee - May - Tomlinson
HB: Rivers - Lever - Bowey
C: Langdon - Petracca - Windsor
HF: Neal-Bullen - van Rooyen - Billings
F: Schache - Fritsch - Chandler
Foll: Gawn - Salem - Viney
I/c: Laurie - Howes - Sparrow - Pup Brown
Sub: Woewodin

would love it to be oliver in for laurie 

both got thru with no injuries; happy days

Now 4 nil and only 18 minutes in. Wow go tillies. Crowd getting good entertainment tonight 

5-0

good forward connection, eh?

16 marks i50 wowee

salem is excellent in midfield - both with his disposal and his defensive workrate

it's extraordinary that I can't decide whether gawn, petracca, or oliver are the best players I've ever seen play for us

If McKay doesn’t get 3 weeks for that, nothing has changed. 

yeah, looked fine on replay

well Harry McKay should be missing first few weeks - cleaned Bowey up

Numbers of the non regulars please. 

who is 22?

blake howes

hibbo replacement

salem as a mid kicking i50 - yes please

baggers get away with a lot of throws and just dropping the ball once they're being tackled

we're really leaving the corridor open with the way we're playing

howes is gonna play opening round I would say - frees salem up to go thru midfield and rivers / bowey to play sweeper role

hibbo replacement
