[Pakenhamsaint]

7 changes. Crikey.

 

[Barrels]

Bloody hell. Axe swung.

 

[Dopey BJ]

WOWEEE

 

[Periphery]

Suck it Shenton haters!

 

[Tommy Wigs]

7 injuries!!!

 

[pebblesofsand]

One positive - if we make those 7 changes I actually don't see the side as substantially worse off. (excluding Armitage and Dempster)

 

[Nutsngum]

I wonder if Longer is going to play for Sandy. They need another ruck afterall.

Looks like a shoulder

 

[sverik25]

What's going on with Robbo?

 

[sverik25]

Also, surely we needed to bring in Delaney for extra back line cover with both Dempster and Roberton out this week.

Call me stupid but i actually don't mind that side

 

[TheLastEmperor]

Love the Murdoch in

 

[Hayes4PM]

Where's Marky Mark?!

 

[sverik25]

No Menzel for Geelong either, but Vardy is back after limited VFL preparation. Strange.

Where's Marky Mark?!

[BRUUUUCE]

Thats massive changes i don't think we want to win this one

 

[SK_MD_#7]

That leaves Arryn Siposs, Dan Markworth, Spencer White, Tom Lee, Tom Simpkin, Lewis Pierce and Brenton Payne as the only players yet to play this season.

Markworth emergency so hopefully a debut next week!

6 of those are out of contract..

 

[TheLastEmperor]

Big Holmes starting as ruck giddy up

 

[hayes]

We're basically conceding this game making that many changes IMO. Oh well.

Bit flat to see Wright out.

Yay Murdoch. Have been hanging all year for his kicking to come into the team.

Tipping Membrey will be the sub for one of the big blokes.

Gilbert goes back to cover Dempster.

Rapt for Holmes. Not expecting much especially against a solid team but the fact that he's out there is awesome.

 

[King Bont]

Excited to see what this bloke can do. Your ruck coach Adam Skrobalak coached me for a few years at East Geelong, and is one of the best motivators I've ever listened to. Fantastic knowledge of the the game and he will really help Holmes on Saturday night!
Good luck boys
