IN: Comben Archer Maley Banch Phillips
OUT: Wardlaw Curtis Darling McDonald Fisher

B: Daniel Pink Archer
HB: Mckercher Comben Hardeman
C: Stephens Davies-Uniacke O’Sullivan
HF: Sheezel Maley Kostanty
F: Banch Larkey Zurhaar
R: Xerri Parker Phillips
I: Simpkin Powell Duursma Logue
S: HansenJr

If McDonald passes fitness test drop Logue.
If Curtis somehow make its to Thursday then Duursma goes out.

We are so sore and underdone none of this will matter anyway.
l cant see Archer coming straight back into the seniors..most likely will play vfl for a couple of weeks..
 
Luke Mac will play
Why? If he is injured to the extent he needs his arm in a sling surely he needs time out to recuperate. Please don’t tell me we don’t have anyone that could replace him. And if he’s being allowed to play unfit just because it’s a special match I will 🤮

The most worrying part is we don’t have anyone to replace him.

Every half back/General defender is unavailable due to injury. Only have Tall developing key defenders who can’t replace LMAC role to play on smalls.

Crazy to make it the centenary match.

It’s a shambles.
You’re cutting out pretty much everyone that doesn’t live in the metro area and people with young children.

Can’t work out if we’re worse on field or off.

We really need a new Ron Joesph type to go clean out the crapola

Sonja and Jen are "doing a wonderful job". Caro said so. That's enough for me.

The strange thing though, is one day Biggy was at Arden St. The next day he was gone. Feel for him to be honest. What else could he do?

I’m tempted to write an email next week expressing my disappointment

I wrote one to the Club in my whole life time and Greg Miller wrote back within a week, in the mail
 
Out: Darling, Wardlaw, Fisher, Mcdonald
In: Phillips, Duursma, Maley, Comben

If Comben isnt right then play Whitlock.

Logue gets first crack at Darcy
Pink onto Naughton to start
Dawson onto Khamis
Comben/Whitlock loose

Maley straight in for Darling
Duursma playing high half forward/wing in Fishers role
Phillips straight in the middle, ideally tagging E.Richards.

FOS or parker to be sub considering light weeks

That hawks game was a true disaster for the club. Got smacked, injuries everywhere, and nmfc members not wanting to show up for our centenary game. Pure disaster.
Thursday games have always been more about TV coverage than attendance. I just hope we don't embarrass ourselves in front of a huge tv audience.

But with a tiny crowd, the TV coverage becomes more about the attendance over the game. And if we're flogged: thrashing + low attendance = disaster

This game has 80-110 pt loss written all over it… 😭 please someone tell me otherwise
Given the occasion I think there will be a positive response from the players this week - if there isn't then we have the wrong players.

This doesn't mean we will win - but I don't see the mega loss as above.

I see a game like the Pies game but not as big a loss - we are competitive for quite a while and play some reasonable football but we get overrun in the last quarter to lose by 4-5 goals.
 
Very vanilla changes predicted

IN: Phillips Comben CCJ Harvey
OUT: Wardlaw Darling Dawson Fisher

B: Daniel Pink McDonald
HB: Mckercher Comben Hardeman
C: Stephens Davies-Uniacke O’Sullivan
HF: Sheezel CCJ Kostanty
F: Curtis Larkey Zurhaar
R: Xerri Parker Phillips
I: Simpkin Powell Logue HansenJr
S: Cooper

Archer wont play. McDonald passed fit. Curtis as well passed fit. As has Sheez.

Cooper, CCJ both confirmed in for Wardlaw and Darling. Maley misses out.
I think they'll be joined by Comben and Phillips.

Parker could be a late out. If so Fisher recalled. Cooper sub.

I’d be happy with this, obviously praying for a miracle win though!
 
Im surprised they haven't named the sides yet with the game in less than 30 hours. When do they normally announce teams for Thursday games?

Not expecting much. Missed the Hawks game as was on a 5.5hr flight to work. So mood has still been ok. We will lose, hopefully with the 3/4 of effort v Carlolton.
