I really want a version of the replay that has the crowd noises and not the commentary Watching it silent feels a bit weird.

Horrendous.

Richo in particular. Calling like he had his last $10 on North.

And it's clearly swayed the mouthbreathers who believe the Kangas were hard done by. Whether Schulz helped draw those frees on Thompson was irrelevant.

Thompson, a classic old school scragger, was hanging off his arm twice, from behind. A free kick all day, every day, thrice on Sundays.

Had Carlile been silly enough to be caught in the same scenario with Petrie, Drew would've kicked a bag.

Didn't retired big forwards who become commentators used to go into bat for the big forwards against the umpires?

We are like seagulls waiting for a chip from Ken...Ken tries to justify his Mitchell selection..great job shutting him down???? He had 28 touches for the game, the highest I think....and most of them after half time...wonder what he would have done if he wasn't shut down??

You have no clue.He had 22 AT half time 12 in the first quarter if you want more detail because no one went to him, he was free wheeling in the middle and unmanned when he went to the wings he was literally right infront of me. Kane was sent to him in the second half and kept him to 6 touches And no ben jacobs (lol) and swallow tied at 30

Good job trying to undermind him thought but if you actually watched the whole game you would see what im talking about. You see mitchells name and automatically assumed he did crap.

You are right I apologise although my intention is not to undermine, just that I am a bit jumpy about ken at the moment...Should have got my facts correct

As long as it's Lobbe in, all other changes are going to be daylight behind in importance. I just want to see our forward line and two ruck setup we've been waiting for since we recruited Ryder.

So far this season has been liking waking up early on Christmas Day, only for your parents to turn around and then say you have to play with old toys until after lunch.

Listening to Ken last night I was sure that Lobbe would miss another week. But after hearing Carr this morning got the impression he might come up for this week. Really wish the club would just come out and put a number as to how many more weeks till he plays, dying to see him and Ryder in tandem!

I don't think anyone can nail a time. The impression that I got was Lobster still was not training at quite 100% and is still feeling it a little and the club wouldn't push him until he wasn't feeling it at all. Could be a couple of weeks yet.

 

[Andre]

The good thing is Lobbe did all the pre-season and a couple of NAB games so he should be close to fully match fit.

You wouldn't have heard anything either if it was just the crowd noises. That North crowd last night was one of the most pedestrian crowds I've ever seen at a footy game, even worse than some of the Crows games I've been to. Granted, Etihad has terrible acoustics but wow, the Port fans for a considerable chunk of the game were louder.

More likely 8 weeks if a dislocation.

 

[Scholz Supremacy]

I thought Ollie would never miss a single game in his career

 

[scotty13]

Out*: Mitchell

In: Cornes/Moore

Sub: Not Ah Chee... lets give him more than 5mins

*note I didn't have Wines as out... I think he will tell the club to get stuffed and front up for the Hawks game and be BOG with a broken tibula/fibula/pectoral/neck/back whatever. He is a machine, and machines dont stop!

For me Young has to play and I think Arch will be back in the Sanfl.

You're just worried you'll have to change your user name or start a second account.

I appreciate the importance of Lobbe to the team, certainly wouldn't rush him though and I wonder, with Ryder and our mids finally starting to click if you would bring him in this week regardless. With quads do you make them get through SANFL first or can they come straight back in?

Mitchell was fine and won't come out. He provided important run and has worked hard on his game. Cornes back in to take Hill or one of their outside mids.

Ah Chee is an interesting one. He didn't look out of place. I think he would probably play sub again if he plays and probably warrants backing in. Moore is probably the better player and is more proven, which may be important against the Hawks. On balance, I think Ah Chee stays.

Outs: Wines, White if injuried

Ins: Cornes, Moore if White injuried

Emergencies: Butcher, O'Shea, Moore/Stewart

Haha - took me about 10 seconds - but I got it.

I hope if Lobster does play this week it's straight back into the AFL. We need a resting ruckman down forward this week to make Gibson accountable and not be able to jump 3rd man into the contest all the time. With Lake taking Shultz, we need someone who can split the contest when we kick long and drag gibson away from Shultz

Could you imagine the media (and social media) backlash from the Crowvertiser if we announced only 8k members showed up to one of our home games against a preliminary finalist from the previous season on a Saturday night? Would be worse than the tarps.

... "Andrew Moore has played his second game back, Paul Stewart, Tom Clurey – a young bloke we'd like to play – Karl Amon, Cam O'Shea; there's eight or nine or 10 blokes sitting back in our SANFL side that we'd be comfortable enough to play."
Hinkley also said hard-running veteran Kane Cornes would return to face the Hawks at home on Anzac Day. ..

As much as i hate debuting a player then dropping him i can't see Ah Chee staying in the side if Lobbe comes up
(even more so when said player is the sub)

EDIT: Not saying he isn't injured, but I don't exactly have other information to go by other than him not playing this weekend.

The article from R2 is probably more accurate:

It would be a tough call to drop him for another midfielder such as Moore, as he didn't really do anything wrong and was good enough. Personally I would prefer Moore in but it would be harsh on Ah Chee.
