Its beginning to appear that we might unfortunately have a Kosi on our list with Laycock. Poor bloke just cant take a trick right now. I also agree with several views that if Carts can't break into the side now...even for some exposure/shore up our numbers in the big man dept.....it'll be lights out for his Bombers career.
Keep an eye on us making a play for a Brisbane ruckman at the end of the year...just have this feeling we're going to poach an interstate AFL ruckman (second/third string albeit)
With this view, it'll be a godsend to have Lucas, Hille and Lloydy in our forward 50 with someone else working in tandem with Laycock and eventually Paddy.
Here I go...dreaming again :rolleyes:

In : Lovett, Camporeale, Ryder, Slattery, Watson
Out : Winderlich, Laycock, Dyson (sorry marcuz), Nash, Reynolds

Fletcher is iffy as well.
Lee comes in if he pulls out. We'll know whether Fletch is playing or not if Lee is on the emergencies.
 
Ryder in ?? hasnt played for two weeks. Has had some hammy troubles. I know long term Ryder is the answer in the ruck but right now it is time to play Carts while he is showing some form.

Now i have said this Ryder is sure to play :D

He needs to do more than just play one good game. I'd rather he string a few together.

Doesn't send a good message to the likes of Lee, Nash, Jolley etc who have been battling hard at Bendigo all season.

Besides I think Ryder is going to be an awesome player for us one day. The kid's got something special.

Seen the Bendigo games this year have you ? His form has been getting better every week , i know i have seen him play.It is not a call based on one game, his form over the last 4 weeks has been pretty good.
Ryder is going to be a star but at this stage it makes more sense to give Cartledge a run and it doesnt send a bad message. Carts plays in a specialized position.What sort of message does it send when you pick an 18 year who didnt do a lot in his last couple of senior games and hasnt played in the reserves in the last two weeks either over someone who has had good form for 4 weeks in the seconds?

In no way am i suggesting Cartledge is better than Ryder by the way.
 
You guys might sleep better knowing that the Demons are hopeless at the Dome. I mean look what happened against Carlton in round 1, we didn't start winning till we played on cricket grounds (SCG & MCG). Never know, might show the same attitude although I certainly hope not. If you're gonna beat us, it's pretty obvious you're gonna need to tire us out considering the 6 day break, running and experience is the key I spose. Good luck to you guys anyways, nothing like renewing an old rivalry

I have been confident for the geelong match and the port match, but I dont think we will win this one. I hope we do but... we will see

fair enough ant.
Admittedly my knowledge of the recent Bendigo games basically comes from the web except for the games shown on TV.

I guess that Carts is gone in the eyes of the club, no seconds this week so no chance to push for selection.
You could probably say he wil be the first de listed.
