Preview AFL Round 5 - Geelong v Hawthorn, MCG, Monday 21 April 3:20PM

[catempire]

Because people think clangers are disposal errors by hand or foot.

Same goes with disposal efficiency. You don't have to hit a team mate to be awarded an effective disposal.

I'm seeing a problem with "people", not the stats themselves!

Hawks are pretty much full strength, where as we got a few out like in the PF last year..

Will make a win all the more sweeter.

Umm.. no offense but please allow me to set you straight there

Shiels is injured, he's our #1 defensive midfielder
Lake won't play despite being named, needs another VFL game after having no preseason or senior games under his belt
Schoenmakers needs more VFL after coming back from an ACL
Whitecross is still recovering from his ACL
Sewell re-injured himself and is a week or two away
Anderson would likely be best 22 but is recovering from a shoulder injury, wont play despite being named
Spangher would be covering for Lake but is injured (Stratton is too slight to fill Brian's job) so we're forced to keep Cheney in the side
Woodward would have certainly played this year but was getting over an ACL and more recently an AC injury

I'm pretty keen to hear how you think the above translates to "full strength"

Who comes out of the current 22 to make way for those players?

Plan on sending us all an abusive PM again this weekend if the Hawks win Bosk you hero?

Reckon a few think you're stronger with Sewell, Schoenmaker and Spangher out.....

Thanks Daz. I have the live app account, so I'll try this as well. Just have to convert the time difference and ensure I'm up for it.

Not that its a contest to say who is more depleted- but as for best 22 most GFC supporters probably would agree we are missing - Caddy, Christensen, Motlop, Vardy and Menzel. That's a pretty talented group and if all fit would make a significant difference to our side.

Pretty sure when overseas you would need to use the international service - you may have IP addy issues logging into the OZ based service. Not sure on that but if it does give you grief, use the international one as a back up.
As for the time difference, the international site gives you a "local" time conversion FYI..

Lol.

Reminds me of a favorite joke, why did the French plant trees along the Champs elysees?



So the Germans can march in the shade.

Perhaps he's got a lay-over in belgium on the way...

 

[DanA]

So are people thinking three of Thurlow, Sheringham, Schroder and Walker will be omitted from the final side. Shame about Caddy but still it's a pretty strong side. Much stronger in terms of depth than Hawthorn IMO.

 

[Willo_]

Again let's stop including Menzel in these lists... we haven't had him for 2 full seasons and may never see him again.

If he gets back it's a bonus, it really annoys me how he keeps getting mentioned here with the idea he will just come back in and make a difference

Why would someone under 40 not get it?

Even the kids these days still study ww2 surely.

I get defensive cause I'm 30 myself, and joke was clear as day for me. But this could be explained by my superior intellect and education

Given your user name combined with the avatar, I just could not resist. The avatar does remind me off the old German SS badges.

Well the avatar is not intended that way for sure. I was also in the navy for 20 years.

Do you not going to the footy and hope your boys can win comfortably?

Nope. Never. Dread every minute until the siren to be honest. I enjoy the replays if we win.
