I think it will be Reynolds, Pev and Dyson to be the emergencies for this match...
gee, our ruck stocks are looking good.
Id say Bolton, Pev and Dyson should miss...but, Bolton will play and Id say Reynolds will be the unlucky one.

Agree.
Looks a lot better with Hird back in.

Would they have the balls to drop Lovett (especially with the
"dreamtime" game coming up ) ?

Bolton (they'll need his height), Lovett (surely can't drop him after his scintillating Rd1 performance, Peverill (because he's charmed) and Campo (couldn't really drop him yet).

tough week on the kid last week.. hopefully, with a distraction free lead up, he'll do some good.

I would like to see Dyson, Lovett, Winderlich and Reynolds as the bench, play the kids, all have pace to burn which we will need - but i would be only dreaming if this was to happen they wouldnt have the guts to drop pev and campo, not saying they deserved to be dropped but we will need quicks to play this week, campo and pev arent quick and where exposed last week of pace, and bolton well i dont know, we have kep and paddy to ruck, yes i now inexperienced but where would u play bolts besides the ruck anyway, if he comes in as a run with player well we have plenty already.
Must have the four above, my opinion anyway.
GO BOMBERS - 22 pt win LLoyd 6, Hirdy BOG
Good to see Bolts included for comic relief.
Good to see dyson dropped, if you cant dominate a game in bugger all playing time then you deserve to be playing in the VFL.

yeah i reckon give him no game time and expect him in his first afl game of the season to get 30 possesions ;)

The one good thing about that is that he was b.o.g in the VFL and hopefully it starts a trend of rewarding blokes who perform. Wish Nash had been b.o.g though.

And at least a bag of 5 or 6 goals...we are setting high standards at windy hill going on the logic used at selection

It had less to do with form and more with the fact that sheeds is out to prove that he didnt make a mistake with pick four in the 97 draft. Bolts should standout in the VFL as he's a mature age footballer in a team of kids.
