As I thought

IN: Oliver Henry, Tyler Brown
OUT: Finlay Macrae, Callum Brown (omitted), Jay Rantall (unused medical substitute)

Tyler Brown, fmd, I give up

 

[Chief Ten Beers]

Mayne lol.

Reason you're going backwards every year bucks.

 

[hellfire]

Good changes. I’d have preferred Mayne to make way instead of Macrae, but I can live with it.

Really keen to see Henry again on the back of his VFL game last week. He won’t be able to run out the match... but hopefully he can kick a few in the first half.

What did Tyler do to warrant selection, looked like a VFL player playing in the VFL last week.

Well, that's an improvement on what he usually looks like.

 

[Stannis]

What a joke T Brown forward
Sier bog in 2nds and doesn't get a game
Maybe we are tanking with selections like this.

 

[Stannis]

Both Brown's aren't AFL quality but continue to get games.

 

[Lockyer24]

Mayne is finished but he is a good MedSub if he wants to continue being a team man like he has always been. He would suit the role, barring us having a lightning quick player to inject or a good tall who can play both ends.

Looking forward to seeing Henry under the roof, suits skilled players, just needs to play with 100% more intensity this time.

With the three stooges in the coaches box, we don't need to tank.

Come on nahnah, must have one of the Brown boys gifted a game, the club is a laughing stock, cue the Benny Hill music .

 

[parano1a]

Emergencies are C Brown, Cox, Macrae, Sier so whichever one misses the VFL game will be injury sub.

 

[Wagee]

Oh God t Brown and j Thomas as inside mids against cunnington and davies uniake

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Sier should be playing. Good to see Henry in, though. Not opposed to T Brown.

 

[Matrix10]

Best T Brown stays out of the midfield, for his own safety , Cunnington will maul him like a pitbull

 

[JOELY]

Happy to have a look at T.Brown as long as he attends plenty of stoppages. Still a long season to go, a lot of people will get their crack.

 

[peter9789]

Interesting that Sier wasn’t recalled after a strong VFL performance - cards marked maybe?

Happy for Henry to come back in. His 1 grab marking was a feature last weekend so looking forward to him finding his groove.

Tyler Brown … has more upside than Callum and just needs a decent crack at it.

McCrae looked cooked last week - glad he is back to the VFL

Pretty sure I just heard on 7 news that Stevo didn’t train for north today but can’t find anything on it...

Any news?

Wouldn’t make sense for Cox to be an injury sub. What’s the point unless a ruck or key forward gets injured.

As much as I hate our recruitment of “utility/versatile” players, our sub ought to be one of these players.

Confession: I'm mostly hear for the anguish.

'Awwwww no, nooooooo! One Brown goes out and another pops up. They cannot be defeated!'

'Oh Lordy, good God. How is it possible? I swear man, I swear I'm twice the footballer T or C Brown will ever be!'

'No way, no f****** way, Sier played like a super duper footy person last week, he was totally awesome, a sight to behold, it's crazy he can't get a game over one of the Brown brothers'.

I'm happy to admit that both Brown brothers do football better than I ever managed. Good luck to Tyler.

Hope to see better signs of AFL qualities in Henry.

The entire league must laugh at our love for Josh Thomas.

Don’t be too disheartened. I was checking out the north board.

They’re shattered that Atu has been dropped. Not because he could use the experience but they actually rate him hahahaha

Need to fill the Brown quota! Looks like Macrae’s the sub based on the VFL lineup.

Just JT ? there is half a dozen players who play regular senior football for us that are good ordinary suburban footballers.
