I have been flat out.

How about we do it in the week between the trial games and the first game where there are no games of footy

It would be like the Syd v Collingwood stand alone game.

I'm sure Jars as sole selector will make the necessary arrangements with Deestroy. So all sucking up for playing & positions should start now.

BTW, Is anyone arranging the Port side of things?

Do injuries & suspensions carryover or do we get a clean slate?

These people are unavilable due to injuries and suspensions from the last game

INJURIES and SUSPENSIONS
Port Adelaide:
Scott - 2 weeks - suspension (unduly rough play)
Tredders#16 - 1 week - suspension (striking)

Adelaide:
Macca23 - 1 week - injury (concussion)
Napysd - 2 weeks - suspension (charging)
Reckon topjars was stiff not to be named - he would't have to take your number as you could allocate Andrew Jarmans #2 guernsey.

Will #19 have recovered to play in time, as they can hardly walk at the moment! :p

Reckon Dog Watcher should get Dogga's guernsey.

If Angel Eyes doesn't object could I please have #10 this year. There is something about that number I like.;)
Also shouldn't we find a spot for Still Crowing.
I'm not 100% sure Dogwatcher is a Crows fan:eek: Although being a Central supporter his natural hatred of all things Port Adelaide might be enough!

I am flabbergasted :confused: after just about being our best player in the last showdown ( 12k 8 hb & 2 goals ) i find myself unable to make the team :(

never thought "age" discrimination would reach BigFooty.

shall now bury for good my "ankle" footy boots that had served me so well in over 40 years of playing the game.

Oh of course. That is fine with me! :)
If theres no objections...I think the double of that one....#20, would suit me just fine! :)

And glad to see the bribing of the captain has worked!;)

Jars, when are we have the strategy drink ... whoops, I mean meeting...

noddy, I reckon you are a shoe in for the next game, but what number do you want? Bicks is from your area & got better with age, so perhaps #26??

As much as i love & admire Bicks i'm very partial to no 69.

Seeing as I had number 26 last year, and seeing as I've been married to the same Pirie girl for 12 years and want to stay married to her, I want a new number please coach. :D
