Preview Changes v Bombers.

[Experimental]

Carlisle out too apparently. Starting to look good.

Carlisle out too apparently. Starting to look good.

Are you sure? He missed last week, but I thought he was expected to get up.

Heppell leads them for disposals, cont.possessions, handballs & clearances in 2014. He's a decent out and arguably in brownlow contention. Definitely winning their B&F. Most of their big wins or come-from-behind wins have been off of his back.

The flow on effect is also decent. More attention can now go into guys like Zaharakis, Goddard, Hibberd and Watson.

Stanley, Risch and Sexton to play defensive roles again.

Now up to our boys to crack in. This is it.

Apparently he was spotted on crutches a couple of days ago and still hasn't trained yet. Take from that what you will! No confirmation yet however!

Last I read he was running fine, and they will give him until the last minute. Bending over and those sort of drills are yet to be done though.

He has trained twice this week already

Yep, I read outdated information~!

[Big Red Machine]

Sumner sprains his ankle fetching the morning paper and we're forced to bring Karmichael in?

 

[Sunny_]

No Broughton. Mind you, with Sebby back we should be good in that position! For now anyway.

 

[Cochblocked]

Essendon
In: J.Carlisle, O.Fantasia
Out: J.Melksham, D.Heppell (hand)
Heppell and Melksham are big outs but Carlisle is a big in also.

 

[eth-dog]

Melksham didn't even get a kick last week

 

[Sunny_]

So? Doesn't mean he wouldn't get one this week.

And he usually goes well against us... I think. Don't know much about the Essendon side.

 

[TheSunGod]

I can't see this going any other way than us copping a flogging. Will be surprised if we get within 5 goals.

 

[kreglze]

Sumner surely must have some photos of someone?

No matter what the supposed collective geniuses at any football club believe, playing players like Sumner is bad for team morale.
It sets up a culture of suspicion regarding player favouritism and expectation over performance and ability
I find his selection very disturbing to be honest.

Carlisle is very inconsistent. Wouldn't bet on him having a big impact on the game. Just chuck Tape or Thompson on him and we'll be right.

Completely agree. Can't believe he's been given another shot. What a crock of shit. Having been brought in last week in a very win-able game, he played with no effort or passion. ****ing disgusting choice to be completely honest. Players need to earn their spot. Not happy at all.

 

[Sunny_]

Hmm, I thought that Sumner did chase and apply pressure.

Just struggled to get a touch. Haha

 

[Ben Drever]

Jack leslie in to debut
Gorringe out!

Get around the young fella

[Iva Bigun]

I am excited to see Jack play, I am sure the more developed Bombers rucks will dominate him at the around the ground bounces but hopefully he can get a taste of what it takes to play at the highest level so he can really step up his pre season work.

 

[Sunny_]

Great news for Leslie!
Shame about Gorringe not coming up, but excited to see how Leslie goes.

Day to be our main ruck? Or Thompson maybe?

Will we have Leslie and Cameron as our CHB and FB on Daniher and Carlisle? Oh dear.

 

[Ben Drever]

If he is angry and aggressive I'm sure he'll be fine...
Ryder will jump straight over him in the air though!!
Good luck jack

 

[Sunny_]

Doubt he'll play in the ruck as mentioned in that article. He'll play a KPD post, with maybe some stints in the ruck.
