i for one am crossing my fingers for a hentschel return.. its going to be good to see him play again.. but they might save him for the home game after? and use... jericho...
I don't care who plays as long as we ____ing win.
We need a win.
IMO no chance of hentschel playing.
Out: Burton
In: Jericho

I hope Hentschel doesn't play, not ready for AFL yet just let him run around with the Hybrids for a few more weeks... no need to rush the great man back.
Jericho and McGregor in
Griffin and Burton out

Campbell, Gill and Otten as emergencies.
Well at least Kenny gives a couple of options and Tippet might get his wish this week as a two dimensional player = Ruck
Drummond

That is one of the most uninspiring teams I've seen.
The in's shouldn't even be on the list.

I think after the month off and decent SANFL form I'm willing to give Kenny one more chance. Impress me, Ken!
I wonder if they're intending to use Ken in the ruck at all or if they're going to be throwing Tippett back into the ruck and use Ken as the goalsquare forward.
My hope is that McGregor plays back, Stevens goes forward and Maric and Tippett switch between goalsquare and ruck.
Jericho has already run out of chances for me... he'd want to have an awesome game this weekend to even be considered against next week.

Imagine its hard for the Crows to inspire you through the TV on a weekly basis, considering you don't go to games.

Is Kennys spot on the list in danger (even with the 2 year contract?)
I'm thinking if he has another first half similar to the one against Carlton he may be in a bit of strife. Hope he can turn it around, top bloke all in all. Jericho deserves another crack at it.

Drummond, please. :o
If anyone is uninspiring it's you as a supporter.

Another week, another whinge by Drummond.
He would still whinge if we won a flag.

who would you bring in and how would they work within the structure ?
I'm assuming Kmac is going forward between FF and CHF whilst Tippet and Maric go through Ruck FF and Bench.
Jericho will play on the Wing and a bit upforward you would think.

I expect a big game from Kmac. He is fighting foir his career
Jericho should be in our starting 22. He is good value and a handy player to come back in.

Been fighting all year, why hasnt he put his hand up?

Im surprised that people claiming he was stiff to be dropped for the Bombers game havent grizzled about his selection against the Tiges:confused:

That just doesn't make any sense at all! :cool:
Really not much choice when you lose Griffin AND Burton. Will be interesting to see how they both perform.

Are there any two-faced posters when it comes to Jericho??? Seems to me there are a few of us that don't bag him mercilessly and the remainder that do. I don't reckon there's any in-betweeners! Besides, the splinters in their ass from sitting on the fence would probably make them septic!:p

A good point
All our smaller guys are doing well. But he is good enough.

Yeah he is a top bloke but he needs to put himself before the club at the end of the year. Go shopping around, see if he can find a new home. Because I honestly cannot see a spot for him in 2009 other then an emergency incase 2-3 of our talls are injured etc.

If it was, say, Van Berlo or Knights that had been injured I'll bet he would have come in.
I hate to admit but I got a funny feeling that Hentschel is never going to even get close to living upto expectations of Crows supporters. I honestly hope Im wrong. The one thing I miss in our lineup is a great forward and Ive been craving one for a long time now.

What do you base that on? Seems to be doing well in SANFL. :confused:

He's been playing in defence so we haven't really had a chance to see how he's going up forward, which is where he will play for Adelaide...
Both him and Gill aren't ready for AFL just yet, i would say possibly 2 or so weeks way, Hentschel probably further away. His injury remember wasn't 'straight forward' and he had a setback with hamstring complaints a month back.
On a similar note, does anyone know what Morans' status is?

Gill wouldnt have been named as emg. if he wasnt ready.. fitness wise anyway..

His fitness is sound, its his match fitness that i think Adelaide would like improved before they play him in the AFL.
On a similar note, does anyone know what Morans' status is?
Still listed as 3 weeks away with hamstring injuries. Would've been great to have him fit and ready to play for the Hawks game.
So how bad is Griff's hip injury?
Is it just soreness, and he's resting this week, or is he actually hurt?
