captains loophole is now in play

sucks for the crows though, just when he started playing well

 

[ashley12]

Any confirmation on Daw for those who are relying on Currie for the loophole

 

[mike_]

For the loophole, do you name your non competing player Captain before the partial lockout or leave the team captainless until after the partial lockout?

 

[The Jet]

Crouch out for 2 matches, pulled hammy at training. Those who have him can use him as the captain for the loophole this round

Ignorance I know, but how does that work? Captain Crouch, vice swan. If Swan is tagged to oblivian you can then change the Captaincy to someone else?

Yep, as it is a Partial Lockout, not a Full one.

Conca out for a month. Would that help Vlastuin?

 

[The Jet]

Daniel Rich major shoulder injury at training - 2 months out http://www.afl.com.au/news/2013-04-24/rich-facing-two-months-out

YES. Don't they both play defence/midfield?

 

[Butler]

Zorko back into the middle??

 

[TedDougChris]

Zorko back into the middle??

Just after everyone has successfully vent-traded him....

I believe Gia for the Dogs is out for 2 weeks, but I'd be surprised if many have him....

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

Zorko back into the middle??

Don't be silly, that would be a competent move by the coach.

Or trade him for Evans and back Swann to do the business.

now that Toovey is out does that give Frost a regular gig?

 

[Jessbek]

now that Toovey is out does that give Frost a regular gig?

With Maxwell out as well, you'd certainly have to think so.

 

[The Jet]

Also remember with Frost that Keefe is back in about 4 weeks or so, you'd think Keefe is ahead of Frost ...

Yeah but that's four weeks

We only need minimum one preferably two or three out of him

Since Dwyer is good with the ball, could he also play a defensive role in the back half of the field once all the guns return for Pies? Just an idea.

Yes, I realise Harry O & Heath Shaw do this ...

Anyone have any information on Chapmans hamstring? relatively minor I hope.

Nothing concrete, but Bartel on footy show last night seemed to think it was minor.

 

[JDWCE]

Pittard late out with soreness. Stevenson in the side according to 6PR

 

[VSTone]

any one have anything on why gibbs was subbed last night?

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

MM said he was a bit tight and they didn't want to risk any injury.

 

[Torz]

Had a bit to do with wanting to get a half into Betts as well.

Fingers crossed he doesn't get rested against Melbourne.
