Yeah it's Travis Moloney

Brisbane are a very young side, prob the same amount of youngsters we do, the difference is they have champions binding their team together

Id go back further...lol

obviously a poor scoreline but theyre having a dip - this is the worst side on paper the MFC has put on the park for a very long time

Examples are Warnock, who has looked ordinary at AFL level and was stitched up in the VFL this weekend, yet you are saying should play this week at the expense of ward, bizzell etc...or CJ who you have consistently moaned about not being in the side even though he has been dire... or Bell who you will praise even if he has an ordinary game...you consistently deride experienced or old players who have been good performers at the club and prop up your glamour boys at all cost without a balanced view. They are playing the young kids!!!

Yeah, Jaded you just speculate wildly about young players who you have no idea about

Bizzell played in the reserves last year primarily because injury derailed his season. He has been a very good defender for the football club over a long period of time and his actions had a lot to do with Al Nicholson staying in the AFL as long as he did. Plays a very similar role to Rivers and only aging legs are diminishing his output nowadays...was a v.good player

Miller did a good job on Fisher, thought Wheatley and McDonald were our best slightly followed by Bate. C.Johnson was useless and was massacred by Carlton's best player (Simpson) when on him

Youre right, Jarka, but McEvoy has incredible scope for improvement and a great engine - top 5 pick for mine - curiously he trained with Melbourne last year as part of the communities program.

I think Brown would have been so trumatised last week that it almost behooved the club to give him another game because he would be so keen to do well

Kreuzer, Cotchin and Ebert look the players most likely to be taken with early picks. I'm a big fan of Ben McEvoy, a ruckman from Vic Country, and Cyril Rioli, an indigenous small utility.

Cam Bruce will probably play on Lucas, he destroyed him in a reserves game many years ago, a game which helped him get recruited

B: Bell Carroll Whelan HB: Bizzell Bruce Ward C: Green McLean Wheatley HF: Sylvia Bate Davey F: Petterd Robertson Holland Foll: White McDonald Rov: Jones I/c: Godfrey, P.Johnson, Newton, Pickett Emerg: Brown, Warnock, Dunn In: Whelan, Newton Out: Yze (inj) Frawley

6. Jeff White 5. Brad Green 4. Clint Bizzell 3. Simon Godfrey 2. Ben Holland 1. Paul Johnson

Wheatley has to be in the best six

I would add Maric, Gaertner and Banner to list of players to watch

Pies bench will probably be Thomas, Goldsack, Licuria, Bryan

I think Holland will come in for the Rocca and you're right Godders for Swan, thats who other clubs have been tagging

I think Wheats is under-rated - had a dodgy year last year and his season this year has been ruined by injury, but prior to that he was alright. He is quick and a good kick - a vast attribut improvement on many.

Jones has more mongrel in him than West which is great, think West has more innate ballwinning ability though, but the potential is there for Jonesy to be a great player.

Mate, you get this everywhere you go - there is a guy who sits in the Redlegs/Tridents area who every week calls players idiots and groans like a jackal throughout the game - was good to see him shut up after another fan threatened to smash him when he called Jeff White a f** idiot.

6. C. Bruce 5. J. McDonald 4. N. Jones 3. J. White 2. C. Bizzell 1. D. Neitz

He also shifts his hand at the last minute and raises his eyes late which gives him an uneven ball drop. These issues are very hard to fix because it takes tens of thousands of kick repetitions to re-perfect an ingrained kicking technique. Toddy just had to become a more handball oriented player to become a gun, maybe Jones will have to do that, because otherwise he will waste a lot of his excellent ground work and run.

Jones is a very similar player to Todd Viney - in that he's a terrific scrapper and worker but is let down by a serious technical kicking flaw, which needs to be rectified, or his kick:handball ratio lowered, for him to become a great, not just good, player.

Bell wasnt loose and kept the abysmal (on the day) dwards reasonably quiet, though Edwards had chances to kick a few. Wouldnt say that was Godfrey's best game - his man Harvey was influential for the Roos.
