Preview Changes/Preview Essendon v Carlton Sat 24th Aug 7.40pm MCG

[gO_bOmBeRz]

We need to fire up the players this week. I like the look of the team with Ryder being the sole ruck. Hurley and Daniher in the forward line is going to be very exciting.

We have a chance to end the finals reign of the filth. Let's ****ing do it!

 

[Halftimehero]

I really hope Kommer is at least the sub.

That would be worse I reckon, that way there is no hope he can be subbed out

 

[Stefan12]

Ins . S. Lucas

 

[BrunoV]

How does Merrett get a game? He did nothing for about 6 weeks at AFL level and has not played for the last month or so. Add in Kommer and the latest unjustifiable knifing of Jetta in light of the performances of even more ineffective players and, seriously, our selection policy is much more ****ing flawed than the supplements program ever was.

Really wish kav woulda got a game gotta offer up a bit more than kommer

Cannot believe they're both getting games ahead of Colyer.

 

[m7jebus]

Yeah I think Colyer's a bit unlucky, thought he was doing fairly well actually...

Ryder v Kreuzer should be interesting, good to have Hurley back - would like to see him and Daniher rotate through half forward a bit, like how Joey plays when he gets up the ground more.

Colyer is on the injury list.

You took the words right out of my mouth, it must have been while you were...

Hird didn't have time to pick the team

 

[Kakkle]

I don't mind the inclusion of Merrett. Found some touch in the VFL last week, 26 disposals and 10 marks.

 

[Wattos Waste]

hurley straight to waite, no fking around!!

 

[yaco55]

I am happy with the team - Like one ruck with JD as support - Merritt is a surprise, and probably indicates that Hardingham will play back.

It will be interesting to see who picks up Waite who has been out of form.

 

[Bell Ringer]

Reckon Waite will start back with Henderson and Casboult up fwd, espcially as we've picked Kruze and Warnock.

Waite went back at half-time last week as well.

 

[Ben the Gooner]

Probably. It'll just be up our end of the ground.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Easy money on Carlton seeing Kommer is there spudding it up as usual. How does Jetta go out (rightfully so I agree) and Kommer keep his spot?

 

[daz17]

Seriously where is Kav at?
Merrett hasn't played at all lately and he is straight back in.
I like Merrett, but I wish we would develop both of them.

Just need to hope a new coach might see how utterly useless Kommer is.

 

[yaco55]

I suspect that this will be a VERY physical game that could get out of control. Two mortal enemies in hand-to-hand combat, spiced by derogatory comments in the last two weeks by Vlad Malthouse.

This game could turn ugly on and off the field.

 

[rines]

I would LOVE to see some aggression by the boys. It may be a bit much to ask for a win.. but I would love to see some 'signs' that we are returning to life..

I hope we support each other, celebrate goals.. get around and get active. Time to come out swinging.

With Kommer's selection it's 21 vs 22.

Man down from the first bounce

And they dropped Bootsma as well so there goes their man down in our favour

 

[Whispering_Jack]

I hope Waite does start back just so we can see Hurley, Crameri and JD up forward! Mouth watering!

Two average forwards and a first year player is mouth watering now? Sad really

Well in the context of our forward structure this year it is...
