Yep, 2MP kicked 3 yesterday, albeit a VFL practice.

The Eagles are playing with VFL intensity so perfect game to bring him in IMO.

should be a nice tune up for Anzac Day and with the Pies playing Lions at the Gabba we should be fresher.

 

[Bombers36]

Did Laverde play in the practice match? Maybe he could come in instead of Prior...

Out: Bryan
In: Wright

Is Wright even fit enough after 1 VFL game?

In tsatis and Hayes, out Bryan and Settelfield. Play Hayes as a second ruck and forward. Settelfield played well but need to put time into the kids.

Nope

WC only offer VFL pressure. Was one of the most bruise free games I have seen for a while against the Blues.

Blues only had 36 tackles. Was like a training run.

 

[MiguelM]

When did Wright play a VFL game?

VFL scratch match yesterday.

 

[Saintsone]

Nope

Nope what

 

[joey_jo_jo]

Please no Wright, need to see how draper goes as the main ruck and also need to improve our forward pressure not decrease it.

 

[eth-dog]

Nope what

Don't bring in a bloke whose played all his juniors and first two years of being on a list as a key defender and plonk him at FF when we have a perfectly capable forward/ruck whose fit and available

Who would that be, if your talking wright he hasn’t played for weeks, and wasn’t getting a game when he was

Played on Saturday and kicked 3 goals. Not a fan either but he is ready to play.

He played yesterday. And he wasn't getting a game due to them preferring the now injured Bryan.

 

[gillon]

They just had the worst contested possession count of all time so I imagine they’ll come out very hot. Would hope we match them.

Our biggest win in the Scott tenure was his first game by 59 points against the Hawks. Would love to eclipse that with this game. But they only lost to Brisbane by 3 goals a few weeks ago and if you’re a little off, even WC can damage you.

 

[Howard Moon]

Much rather wright in than Goldy but I'm concerned they might go the other way

 

[ant555]

A practice match

Yes. Four quarters.
