Did I miss something or did Nicnat suddenly get a tank? Isn't that why WCE always have two rucks? We have to have two rucks for this game, particularly in Darwin. So they are Gawn and Spencer, Gawn and Jamar or Gawn and Fitzy. Hogan is a big a given as you'll ever see and I would've thought Garland, a regular given - in good form before the hand injury. So for me: In: Hogan and Garland Spencer stays or one of Fitz/Jamar comes in (Roos unlikely to tinker too much on this one) Great team effort on Sunday but if you have to burrow to find the players that were slightly less that 'brilliant,' it would be Toump, MacDonald, Bail, Riley. Toump is on an upward trajectory and can do without the loss in confidence so he stays (with fingers and toes crossed). Macdonald is a key so he stays and is played back into form (theoretically) Bail had an OK game (played his role well) marred by the usual rubbish disposal Riley didn't do much as the sub, but last time in that role, he went into the middle and smashed bodies. Against Geelong he didn't get the chance. Against WCE, he probably won't either, thereby diminishing his value as a sub (although it wouldn't stop him smashing eagles outside the centre square). Therefore, by process of elimination: In Hogan, Garland Out Bail, Riley Or, In Hogan, Garland Fitz/Jamar Out: Bail, Riley, Spence

Straight to the 'Commentary Gems' thread with that one!

I consider it a plus that he didn't belt out his cringeworthy catch cry "Baby" Epic tool

I'm sorry, I didn't hear that: BRAYSHAW IS A GUN (for the hard of hearing)

IIRC King is from NSW which should give him a third year on the rookie list (unless something's changed)

Or, giant novelty condoms. Not a good look

I think they look like knobs (literally)

Splitting hairs but I prefer M Jones ahead of Bail. Both had a truckload of possessions/tackles etc at Casey

Well done, now take a deep breath

Just to add my random two cents worth and to keep it classy...Twiggs = Zoolander

Gotcha! PS Question for KC: Walmsley started the season in pretty good form (IMO). He seems to have disappeared. Has he been injured or finding it hard to get a seniors birth? Thanks

Surely not and I hope that's the case with Harmes. Some of the other names in the DL, indicate it should change? Rutherford, Munro etc

Kennedy-Harris in the Development League?? And Harmes?? Yes, I understand there's a truckload of players to come out of the line-up but puleese, Harmes is named in the starting 18. I can't see he did much wrong last week. I 'll assume JKH has spent a month on the couch with his groin grief

Me either, but prefer Riley as the sub. He's in the Blease league of tanks.

Sheeeeeeet Garland out too

Howe - taking the pi$$ Surely!

6 Garland 5 Brayshaw 4 Grimes 3 Hogan 2 Cross 1 Spencil

That's my issue with him too - the fact that he got off was bizarre, not that I've got a long memory or anything. But it's still way behind LOL COL Sylvia and his busted jaw in the NAB Cup.

I find it extremely odd that poster's feel compelled to declare Trengove's operation a failure, as though there's some prize in making the call early.

A drug den of dons

This guy reminds me of someone. It's given me the shits for a week but I finally clicked. With his ponytail look, he's a dead ringer for Wilfred the Dog. The pic would be here: Edit: So I can't add a pic so here's the uncanny resemblance link: http://www.heraldsun.com.au/ipad/wilfred-scores-new-kennel-in-the-us/story-fn6bn80a-1225943952419

6-Vince 5-Van Demon 4-Spencil (never thought I'd be typing his name here) 3-N Jones 2-Hogan 1Toss-up between Cross, Brayshaw, Fitzwahh Edit: Forgot Pedo - he did orright too

He's probably a bit closer to the action than most of us in the armchair comp

Makes it easier to change a winning formula! In Viney, Jetta Out: Bail, M Jones (inj)
