groin! man........

 

[beez]

Ewww....don't like the look of those Ins and Outs. Wouldn't suprise me if Tarks gets a run this week given MM said on Friday night he HAS to come back in because of the inferiority of the VFL.

 

[mattys123]

Damn that's an early team, but I guess with 4 days to go, no need worrying about an hour or two.

Ball's being rested obviously, means he has 20 days between matches leading into Sydney, same for BJ.

Some nice ins, Goldy, Action, Dawesy.

I can't for the life of me see how O'Bree gets named, he was one of the worst players in the wet in the VFL last week. Josh Thomas was better then him, plus a few others also.

Nathan Brown is "stiff", best on ground in the VFL and he doesn't even get an emergency spot.

I hope the final ins and outs are;

In: Barham, Goldsack, Dawes
Out: Fraser, Ball, Johnson

The Link does not Work

I can't for the life of me see how O'Bree gets named

It's pretty simple, and it involves one of the outs.

 

[Optimax]

The Link does not Work

probably because it was put up too quickly

Was on the site for a good 20 minutes though

 

[Invigoration]

Calf related ankle for Ben Johnson?

I reckon Barham and Obie will be the ins, but as Beez said, MM wants to get Lockyer in to keep him up to pace, so it wouldn't surprise me to see him in.
Pretty slow side if Obie and Lockyer are the two ins though.

True - IF Ball is not playing then I have no Problem with Cheesy Playing.

Is Ball Really Injured or having a Rest?

Someone Pressed The Wrong Button

Hope the Dees did not see it

I'd prefer Barham or Cook to play in Ball's place, both are more effective inside mids then O'Bree is now.

The positive about O'Bree playing is if he does, it's only 2 games to 250.

Why would we play Cook?

Blair would be a Better Choice

Turn it up Matty, neither of those boys even are inside mids, let alone better at it at AFL level at Obie.

 

[pieman123]

we shouldnt bring in obree and play thomas in the centre instead of the wing and let barham use his pace out on the wing

 

[smiddaz123]

I'd prefer Barham or Cook to play in Ball's place, both are more effective inside mids then O'Bree is now.

Yeh, I'd also like to play two skinny guys with little inside ability in Ball's role.

Barham isn't an inside anything, and cook is well he isn't even a good footballer and unless we have enough injuries we have to play him otherwise we forfeit i would prefer he doesn't play

 

[AsianWithAFro]

O'Bree better not play Lockyer deserves a game not him!

Seems like Barham is a certainty for this week though

I don't look too much into these injuries as I think they're just being rested

 

[Old Spice]

Don't want any Pies kids V Melbourne's hulking young mids.

 

[Quicky]

If Ball's out I don't see how you can question O'Brees inclusion.

The only other option I think is Beams to midfield with Dick or Rounds to the forward line.

 

[TradeDraft]

“Ball wasn’t able to get up with a groin complaint but he should be right for selection for the round 13 match,” chief of football Geoff Walsh told Collingwoodfc.com.au.

“With the club facing a weekend off (split round) after the game against Melbourne, we are hopeful both players will be ready to go.”



Good to know it's not to Bad

[Frankie23]

James McDonald out for the Dees, that's a huge blow for them. He tagged Swanny out of our last match

 

[mdc]

lol, Brad Miller retains his spot. The Melbourne board will be well pleased.

 

[mattys123]

Haha, what a joke, I guess the club directors want his wife to hang a round for a bit longer.

Millers inclusion has definitely put a smile on my face, one of the biggest duds in AFL football, maybe ever.

 

[Stylus]

I can live with Miller, but kill me is Paul Johnson gets a game!
