Jaded No More

Hibbo can’t be sub he wasn’t in the extended side. Smith will play permanent forward. Tommo goes back. Smith will have to remain forward the entire time as JVR will be second ruck.

Wow Laurie is left field two weeks out from finals. I was sure Spargo was a shoe in. Interesting to see what role he plays.

Adam Simpson is the least of the problems at West Coast Their list management and fitness and conditioning teams need to be thrown out. They need a complete overhaul of both.

They have plenty to play for. Their form has been very ordinary and they’d want to build it up again going into finals. You don’t want to crawl into September.

This season is a nightmare. At least I don’t have to barrack for Geelong ever again.

Clarry let’s his football do the talking. He’s a regular Shakespeare on the field.

Surely it’s to get some miles into his legs before finals. No way he gets dropped on performance. He was very good when he came on against Carlton. Hawks have a few talls so we need another tall down back this week. I reckon he plays next week on Papley.

Just saw that. Maybe they want to give him a full game at Casey for fitness ahead of finals?

He was sub. It’s just the stupid nature of the selections that subs are listed as out

Who goes back? Tommo or Hibbo?

This has to be one of the ****test takes of all [censored] takes ever seen on this website. Congratulations sir/madam.

My MIL is a mad Hawks fan. But Max Gawn is her favourite player. So you know, swing and roundabouts.

It’s about damn time I get a PA. Need someone to handle the pleb level GIF work.

Never said otherwise. Just wondering if you had any inside info since you keep saying watch this space 😂 You also never said who you think Dunstan should replace in the team.

A good effort but disappointing to lose it with poor defending. Still what an effort and Kerr is a star!

Too important for our attack from half back.

If Rivers can develop the tank, he could be an elite wingman.

Because of our injuries. It’s not like they went on to win the flag. All I’m saying is that Brisbane should beat the Pies given their outs. If they don’t then Brisbane really shouldn’t be considered a contender.

This season has lost the plot

I don't think we will play Gawn as an interceptor down back until finals. We did too much last year and it was worked out and planned for by opposition sides. Much like Kosi playing on ball, I reckon we will only see glimpses of it until September. Can't let all the rabbits out now.

Pies have pulled up stumps on the H&A season, which on the one hand is fair as they can ill afford more injuries, but on the other hand is a worry because they are flirting with already pretty mediocre form. If Brisbane smash them, that gives them a psychological edge when/should they meet in finals. If Pies win without Moore, Daicos and De Goey then you can just about put a line through the Lions.

For what?

What for? And who for? He is a poor user, slow, and can only play one very specific role.
