[Raveneyes]

No Farrow. Kondo a good shout though. Elite kick too, but will be dropped when Ridley is back

Sharp

Liked the look of Kondo. When is Ridley back?

Ridley is back around 2 weeks before he is out again

We are all soooo screwed if Blamires isn't named lol. The mid rookies get more atrocious the more I look

Is that you stevebbb ?

 

[Jiska]

I give a flying f***.

It was another perspective to other replies. Just like your mouthy perspective here.

Sorry didn't mean it the way you interpreted. Badly worded in hindsight.

Looking at it just now, Grlj to the mid bench if he's in your defence as we have options down back.

If Riedy is dead, ZZ comes in.
Surely the likelihood of suspensions at bris helps ZZshort term JS.

I was red hot on ZZ, but the more I think about it, the more I think his JS is shaky. Very log TOG with Draper to come back in. I can't see him playing the 6 odd games we need to make it worthwhile starting him. Then again, not like there are too many R3 options, especially if Reidy is dropped, so you take a playing Ruck.

Farrow or Sharp to miss

I think we'll see one.

Selects three.

Scott's be like.....

(El Achkar - who the hell is he? I need a forward rookie. Where's he play? JS?)

 

[kenneyswarriors]

They could drop Fort. Was getting clean hitouts against 210cm rucks. Can also play either end of the ground.

That's what I'm doing currently although I think Grlj is worthy of being on field

Don't need to sell him to me, I thought he looked awesome, particularly in the first half. I hope you're right.

(El Achkar - who the hell is he? I need a forward rookie. Where's he play? JS?)

He will probably play every game this year but not score too highly like Kako. Same sort of player. Been training in the A team basically all year so very good JS

[THE_GUN]

Robey playing VFL this weekend. Suspect we see him in 2-3 weeks. Might be our first downgrade target

Lets hope its in 6-7 weeks

 

[rocker_oz33]

We should know more tomorrow or Thursday afternoon.
There is normally a puff peice on who is debuting.

 

[Double the Fist]

I think he's ok for a bit. We have no defenders injured so by extension he is ahead of the others like Buss and Coffield. Carmichael is playing VFL just back from injury but not really a lockdown type.

Sellwood can defend and shows some teeth at least.

 

[clogwearer]

Kako back soon affects his JS?

 

[rocker_oz33]

Sellwood can defend and shows some teeth at least.

He loves a tackle like Linda Lovelace aswell.

 

[Petrify]

Kako back soon affects his JS?

No, I'm 95% sure we will play both

 

[Double the Fist]

Farrow took most of the kick-outs in Essendons small match sim today. Hopefully a sign of things to come & his debut confirmed!

 

[WaynesWorld19]

 

[Double the Fist]

It does, but he really needs to play 5/6 games to be useful for cash gen.

That could take ten games IMO

 

[Double the Fist]

Any word on Grlj?

I expect him to be unveiled. Tiges need to blood a talented hope.
Same as Wc showing the two top picks, and maybe leaving Lindsay out. From a trying to win perspective, I think lindsay and duursma should play.

Worrell is going to drop a 140 against the Pies in rd1. The one player I'm most sad about not starting.

 

[Double the Fist]

Surely you can't compare those first two to Selwood? There's like 160k difference

His impact inflates his score.
Was frenetic in defence.
He'll stay for his efforts
