We had a better chance of beating Essendon.

Okay now hear me out.

Last week ATW played a game out of his arse.
Cunnington was ineffectual.
We got smashed around the contest.
The umps gave us nothing.
We had 3 players who played well.
Yet we should not have lost.

That's the best the Bombers have played all year.

I don't doubt you.

We still have awful interstate form and Brisbane are the bloomers now. I would be surprised if we got within 20 points.

As usual, the difference will be execution.

This is what I see happening

In Wood Higgins Durdin
Out Taylor Hrovat Lmac

Would be happy with that.

I'd also drop Macmillan, anyone would do.

I am worried about this game, but if Shaw has the boys up and going and brings home a win on Saturday night he should be signed Monday.

Ideally, I’d prefer to wait until after the Geelong game before we make our coaching decision. At that stage, Shaw will have navigated Optus and Kardinia. Of course, if our hand is forced before that, then, we do what we have to do.

Hey Snake. I see hipwood, mccluggage and hodge coming in for Walker, keays and Adams for us. What changes to your team do you think will happen?

McDonald obviously, Taylor back to the VFL, and Ahern should be dropped.

Hopefully Higgins & Wood are right for us. Davies - Uniake might also be a chance after a promising run in the VFL (30 & 11 tackles)

Aside from that I don't really have a clue, as the cupboard is pretty bare at the moment. I figure we'll bring in a tall defender for McDonald, and put Thompson on one of the tweeners, so either Durdin or McKay.

My personal choices would be:

Out: McDonald, Ahern & Taylor
In: Higgins, Wood & Durdin/McKay

North side

B: Thompson, Tarrant, Williams
HB: Pittard, McKay/Durdin, MacMillan
C: Polec, Higgins, Dumont
HF: Zurhaar, Larkey, Wood
F: Turner, Brown, Ziebell

R: Goldstein, Cunnington, Simpkin

Int: Anderson, Atley, Hrovat, Thomas

Easy win against the rugby town franchise.

North by 3 goals.

Out: LMac, Hrovat, Taylor, Goldstein
In: Durdin, Wood, Higgins, Campbell

Nah that's not Tony T. David Armstrong I think, one of 3AW's other news guys..... he reads news with pauses in all the wrong spots.

Goldy was pathetic but he's been good this year.

Play another kid. Hosie/Crocker.

Season is done, may as well see if we can unearth another gem in the North Melbourne sluice box.

If Woody cant get up, i wouldnt mind having a look at young Hosie. I get the same feeling in my waters about him as i did about a certain Mr Zurhaar. Cant hurt now, lets have a look at him.

Most of us would have turned out better than Tyson

I’ve been critical of the recruitment of Tyson but geez he’d be handy right now.

Val Keating · Jul 18, 2019

The intensity of the last few weeks wasn’t there against Essendon. RobZombie do you know the stats on that? I’m just going off my eyes. Felt like that manic pressure just wasn’t quite there. Need that back this week. To use a Mike Tyson quote, need to punch them in the mouth. That’s our best style.

Yeah? It bloody sounded exactly like Tardio. Ah well.

It would be nice for him. I think we’d have heard by now, though, if he were to come in.

Hopefully the umps look after us this week. We got nothing at all.
They f’ed us especially early on in the third. Some absolute bulls**t.

Well you're up against a team who won a game by 48 points on the weekend but somehow lost the free kick count 33-19 so you should be right

And last time there was a big deal the guy (Hosie) didn't even play.

Black2Blue · Jul 18, 2019

With the following game in Perf, it wouldn't be wise to take underdone players to Brissie, so I wouldn't be surprised if selections were on the conservative side this week. ie. LDU instead of Higgo and Hosie instead of Wood or even just the forced change of LMac out. This weeks will probably the least predictable selections of the season. Outs could include any of LMac, Taylor, Hrovat, Ahern, Larkey and JMac. Ins could be any of Higgo, LDU, Wood, Hosie, Durdin, BMac, and Xerri. Then probably end up just with Out - LMac, In - BMac.

LDU will play

Is this mail or a prediction ?

Caracas · Jul 18, 2019

It’s 5.45. I think we can safely rule out Hosie & Xerri.
