Preview Round 9, GWS Giants vs Richmond, Saturday 20th May, 4.35pm, Spotless Stadium

[Determinant]

Hello friends.

With the weather forecast for Saturday being total s**t, I was wondering if any of you could tell me which bays/areas had sheltered seating? I would prefer to at least be dry while seeing my team get destroyed.

Thanks!

Will be fine now, from a club email just received..

Undercover Seating

Due to the forecasted weather, we will open up the Cumberland Stand for additional undercover seating for members and fans.

If you look at the detail from the source the forecast os actually pretty positive considering. Could change of course

It doesnt end. Theyhave 5 changes as well. De Boer debuts, which will make at least one person happy, and Cumming gets a step closer I guess.

Yep bad news keeps coming

 

[Danny88]

Big out I think. Smith is one of those 'icing on the cake' players who win games

Still.... at least MDB offers a hard body in the wet

 

[coniglio_number1]

Smith loss is offset by the return of Toby

MDB will do well. His tackling will be something we will be talking about come Sunday

Bugger

Cumming in, Cummin in

 

[Gigantic]

Wtf is happening? :/

 

[coniglio_number1]

I'll be an optimist and say that at least it's all happening in may as opposed to september

 

[coniglio_number1]

Also if lobb is out then big Dawson in
MK for SJ

I've not seen it listed anywhere but Raymann posted MK injured, out for 6 weeks with a shoulder injury

Simpson isn't an emergency though, club would get fined for bringing him in late.

He was listed as an emergency so presumably he must be fit.

I dont know about everyone else but I will cheering them onto the field with extra gusto this week. Especially if all, or at least most, make it down the race from the changerooms safely.

 

[Drummond]

This is absolutely crazy!! It's not just fringe players getting injuries, and they're not just minor injuries, they all seem to be 6+. Crazy.

The only positive is that the team (to this point) keeps winning, and the depth being tested will be very beneficial come the business end of the season.

I'd like to see Cumming too!

 

[Gigantic]

If both Lobb and Stevie J are out, it's obvious that Matt Kennedy will be one replacement

But who's the other? Himmelberg or Cummings? Either way, we're going to have to restructure a bit

Tommo and Patton to also relieve Mumford with ruck duties at some point?

 

[Ichabod Noodle]

Has any team ever had to use all three emergencies? And given we've already upgraded one, has any team used 4?

This is becoming insane.

 

[Raymann]

I've not seen it listed anywhere but Raymann posted MK injured, out for 6 weeks with a shoulder injury

I think the club has decided to operate at seasons end

Matt Flynn might be a show, but at very long odds I think

 

[Raymann]

If Lobb is out does Tommo go forward and come the second ruck

I would think Kennedy and Cummings

That will hurt our defense.
