If the rumours of Miles missing is true, it will be Miles for Lambert, I'd say.

Was training today

 

[sante]

How the heck does Gordon earn a spot?

 

[DontArgue4]

Fkin Gordon omg why does hardwick love him so much he's arse

 

[Groupie_]

Would rather play Lennon forward than Gordon

 

[sante]

No Conca?

 

[Calcium Man]

Newman.....

 

[Groupie_]

No Conca?

[Calcium Man]

Gordon is a joke

 

[DontArgue4]

Read today he trained away from the main group but they expected him to play

Why has Vlastuin taken Shane's Edwards possie at CHB?

 

[sante]

Haven't seen the Blues squad but we are too short imo. Especially when Griff goes into the Ruck.

 

[bigange]

Lloyd and Gordon - no thanks.

 

[Barnzy]

Newman gets a gig after heart surgery a couple weeks back and no preseason game. Lennon doesn't get a gig.

Selection is still a joke 5+ years into Hardwick's reign. I still expect us to win but this is not our best team.

[Deanos]

No Conca?

Midfielder Reece Conca was unavailable for selection due to hamstring soreness.

[DontArgue4]

No casboult for them

 

[A Tiger 4 lyf]

Mcintosh? wasnt expecting that good luck to the kid

 

[no orange peeler]

No way we will line up like that. I expect newman to withdraw and Petterd or Vickery to come in. If Miles is right he'll start. If his not Lambert will play

 

[Danog]

Dislike Newman going straight in.

Bit short...would prefer Vickery in so he and/or Griff can help put in ruck and defence

 

[TheProwler]

No Vickery

Earn it son!

 

[BILC]

I'm assuming Gordon will probably get the vest?

 

[Roachy8]

Mmmmm....
What exactly are the rules for April Fools?
