Changes v Essendon

[Dancing Potato]

On paper our team this week looks like a bag of burnt arseholes.

I only hope it performs more like a bag of lightly seared vaginas.

Going off that interchange I've got a feeling they'll go with what you said and drop Tyson for Bugg. You have to reward a performance like he had for Casey last week.

I think they'll drop Stretch for Bugg. Bugg played wing in the VFL last week and it just seems a legit swap for swap role. Stretch has been a been down the last 2 weeks but who knows.

If we drop Stretch for Bugg and Tyson survives the match committee can GAGF

 

[Headless]

Dropping Stretch would be utterly absurd.

The vagina is one of the toughest parts of the human body so that would be a good result for us

 

[wowlace]

Worst side we will have fielded in a few.

Tough AND flexible. Less shitty too.

There was logic to my statement!

 

[The Dr]

He's a nut, glad he is gone.

**** I want to win this so bad. It isn't even that I hate Essendon or its a big game for our finals hopes, but considering all the shit that has gone wrong so far this year it'd be an incredible effort by the group.

I agree. This could be a win that has significant cultural impact for us having had so many touch breaks this year, not to mention Jesse's dad passing.

 

[Major Colvin]

Good. No room for complacency and everyone needs to crack in. I don't think its any coincidence the Bulldogs played with an intensity beyond every other team in finals last year - they knew they didn't have their best team out there, so each player had to go in harder to compensate.

Could this possibly be the shortest forward line ever named?

CHF: Watts 196cm
FF: Hannan 189cm
HFF: Petracca 186cm
HFF: ANB 182cm
FP: JKH 173cm
FP: Garlett 180cm

Ave Height: 184cm

For Comparison, here is the Giants forward lineup this week.

CHF: Lobb 207cm
FF: Patton 198cm
HFF: Taranto 186cm
HFF: Kennedy 188cm
FP: Cameron 196cm
FP: Reid 188cm

Ave Height: 194cm

Had a heap of injuries under Neil Balme and just had Farmer and Sean Charles in the 50.

How did we go?

 

[Theseventhhamster]

How did we go?

Not so good.

 

[Topkent]

Would need Trac and Watts to play blinders as well as Pedo
Cant believe Hannan plays and Fat Kent doesn't

 

[CRIPPA9]

One for AF: How is JKH's job security? I'd think coming straight into seniors from only the one VFL game indicates he's rated internally...

Thoughts would be appreciated. Cheers.

Should survive at least this week as he is named on the ground, keep an eye on how he goes to see if he gets another game though.

 

[Toump Ass]

Usually when we've fielded a worse team than the Dons, we've won.

Problem this week is even with our outs I still think we're better.

In: GAF
Out: Forwards, Rucks, structure, whatever.

Dees by 12.

Looks like that's gonna be keeping more from sleeping for the next week then...

 

[Crusty Demon]

I know you want us to fail just so you can tell us how right you were, but **** me get real mate. He had one bad game after FOUR good ones and you start sinking the boot in.

Yes I want us to fail. You got me..

If you read my message I said he's been ok. But he's yet to Rip a game apart and in my opinion, hasn't deserved the constant drooling over his abilities. Oliver and Hunt look twice the player ATM and you could argue Stretch has been a better player as well. Brayshaw obviously unlucky with his head knocks, but how much we succeed in the future will rely heavily on Brayshaw and Petracca living up to their potential. And besides glimpses, I'm yet to see a hell of a lot from them. I don't mind if you think that's harsh, but Its my opinion..

 

[PerfectFooty]

Oliver needs to harness his inter Jordie and poll 3 brownlow votes

 

[DemonTim]

Probably a good week to be stuck at home resting. No game for me

Will be surprised if we get close

Was that an actual team that played, or just a 'worst of' 22?

Was that round 2, 2013? Crazy to think so many are still on AFL lists. I mean we still have seven on ours, including half of the named backline.
