Kennedy and Darling are still listed as 1-2 weeks away on the AFL website. I'd be very surprised if both came in for an interstate game after what? A month off footy?

They are gonna be severely underdone if you bring them in.
Yeah only one may play
 
Sam Murray in for Crocker at least.

We have 1 more throw of the dice with Moore and Elliot. They need to be 100% cheery ripe before they play AFL. Do not put them in without 5 specialists clearing them. Re Injury and they are done for the season.

If Moore and Elliott don't make it to the end of this season uninjured, then 100% get rid of both of them. Trade and free up cap space.

As far as this week goes, I'd be naming Moore as an emergency to see if Eagles go with Kennedy. If Kennedy plays, then bring in Moore, if not, then give him the extra week.

Smith vfl bog first game back so I'd slot him straight back in. Also Oxley listed as 2nd bog and has been in best for a few weeks, marking defender needed and if not going to give him a try now, when? Perfect time to pick him.

Moore not sure if one game back is enough. Also Varcoe needs to be starring in the 2's which he isn't yet.
Not sure if serious?
 
Buckley loves Josh Smith (he's the new Blair) so don't discount him from selection calculations.

Hey, don't shoot the messenger!
 
"Kennedy and darling will play"

Make up your mind champ, sounds like you're trying to convince yourself you will actually have a forward line come Sunday.
Well they both trained well and did a full training session because I went down to the eagles training so they can’t do much more

Have a feeling that Varcoe would probably get the nod ahead of him having had the extra week of match conditioning (and being a better player).
 
I reckon Varcoe, Smith and Oxley all could come in this week, not sure on Moore, wouldn't be surprised if McLarty debuts.

That injury list is from last week, so 1-2 weeks meant they would miss against GWS and potentially this week against the Pies.

All the talk seems to be that Darling and Barrass will play, Kennedy won't and LeCras is uncertain.

Injury report out at the end of the day should clear things up slightly.
 
Cool, happy with Kennedy missing and an underdone Darling. :thumbsu:

That's the problem, from what I see he seems fairly fit and willing to really work. I think his main job is to really lead hard into spaces and create holes in our forward line. That way he is also that first line of defence for kicks coming out ("the wall").

Could easily replace him with someone who has more impact on the scoreboard, unfortunately both our main replacements just aren't quite ready.
I'd rather Greenwood play that role and Murray come into the backline and give us some run.

Yep, Greenwood is starting to get some runs into his legs. Brilliant, Greenwood to play a run with role on someone, Gaff perhaps...? Murray to provide some run out of defence.

Gaff or Shannon Hurn. We can't do what we did in the first half against Dons, kicking it straight to Hurley. Hurn will murder us there.

Will Liam Ryan come in?

Below the knee contact

No free kick
If you're talking about WHE you're having laugh. Brown had the ball and handballed it, if you rewatch it and want frees paid for that then you're turning football into a something ugly. Pies fans need to bloody stop complaining about frees, we do it so much more than opposition clubs and it grinds my gears why we are so fixated on frees

Watching a different game

Yeah he had the ball

Yeah he went to ground to avoid the tackle

Yep he made contact below the knees

Free kick
All day every day

Regardless of possession
 
Surely we can't bring in Smith while Mayne is still in the side?That would give us negative pace.I still have nightmares of watching Smith trundling along the boundary line in round one,while his Hawthorn opponents burnt him off time after time.
