gysberts is a gun enough said. not only are we only 8 weeks into the real football season, but he has not even been listed for a year. he will be an absolutely amazing player, and why every body is getting on his back is so stupid. he is more than likely an easy replacement for a bruce or junior when there time comes to step down.

i would really love to see Brent Moloney as captain, he bleeds red and blue, and his leadership to the younger blokes is amazing, and leadership on the field is top notch.

bail had a quad injury, and i think that is why he hasnt been playing. Bail fits perfectly into the team with his hard running, and good disposal. Jamar won the ruck contest, but got dominated around the ground, didnt show hudson any respect. Paul Johnson, will probably stay in the team. give him another crack as it was obvious the conditions helped no talls. Why would we drop bartram, i think he will match up perfectly on lecras, and gave us that run out of the backline that we desperately needed on friday. Dunn could be the only player to be omitted, and i would like to see morton if fit come back into the squad or watts to have a crack, yet i wouldnt be suprised if there is no change as i think that dunn is just two or three small errors away from a really good game. Also what do people think on bennell, i think that bennell could be omitted to give another small forward a go, jetta or maric, just for a rest, he did some good things on friday, but was a bit to inconsistent i feel.

Agreed, i think its funny how people jump on the rivers is a dud bandwagon. i think there were many players who didnt play aswell as they should have, and i think that peoples expectations are so high on rivers due to his form in past seasons, so when he has a poor match everyone wants to get rid of him.

warnock will get the first go on hall, with frawley probably going onto robert murphy, i dont think matching up on the bigger players but rather the smaller ones, if our backline stays the same and is rather top heavy, with macdonald, frawley, rivers, garland and warnock

i agree that grimes should not be dropped, why would you drop one of our cleanest players with the ball, i feel that if anything he should be moved up the field where he can be more damaging, but i would much rather see the ball in his hands in our back 50 than most other players as you know he will hit a target. i would like to see bail be played as it fits in well with our running gamestyle, and i definately think he is going to be a star

garland was drafted as a forward, and moved to the backline due to injury, yet played well enough to cement a spot. With frawlleyt and warnock dominating, rivers a definant started and the recruiting of macdonald, i think garland forward is a good move, and his kicking is top notch
