David Myers to debut

[Burzum]

Daniher will join another debutant, West Australian David Myers, who will inject some much-needed run and pace in a midfield struggling because of injury.

dont like to see the kid get rushed in due to injuries but cant wait to hear how he plays.

he's the saviour!!!!!!

Awesome. Looks like Daniher will be played down back according to the article

http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/sport/afl/story/0,26576,23626214-19742,00.htmlBut impressive form - he had 18 touches and four goals for the Bendigo Bombers last weekend - and a groin injury to Dustin Fletcher has fast-tracked original plans.

From that I take it he will be a direct replacement for Fletcher. Either that or we will see Mal and Ryder down back as the only talls, or god forbid Johns gets another chance.

I think the first option is more realistic though since Port dont have a huge forward line. Tredrea is the onlt tall forward in their top 5 goal kickers this year. (cornes is in there also, but he isnt a forward, nor is he playing ) We need to stop guys like Motlop, Ebert, Rodan and Burgoyne.

so with daniher and myers in, does that mean jetta and lonegran will be rested?

hope so, be shattering for them to do another hammy.

Exciting news. Looking forward to seeing these 2 guys in action on the big stage. All the best to both.

 

[The Dustbin]

Geez. More good news! Could Bellchambers make it 3.

 

[BABYBOMBERS2007]

Good to see him debut.

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Hislop next please then Bellchambers then.....

About time - Myers was drafted with a physical body ready to play AFL, and he's super-classy as a player.

Can't wait to see what he can do in the AFL.

Any word on whether he's likely to play back, wing or forward?

Its intertesting re the physical body aspect - I saw him play for Bendigo and was amazed at how massive he was. He has to be at least 190cm.

Houli and Reimers are getting used at half-back lately, I'm sure Knights will use him there too with a few stints in the middle.

I've been waiting for Myers to debut, and was planning to go watch him in his first game. Yay

190.7cm last I checked so yeh quite a tall midfield/half back type player.

 

[Whispers]

I heard that is was Darcy Daniher, David Myers and promoted rookie Jarrod Atkinson to all debut.

with winders, kyle and rama all not playing this week surely it is time for the slop

Read this link people. Confirmation of Dempseys stress fractures. Reimers now injured. It goes on and on. http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/sport/afl/story/0,26576,23627233-19742,00.html

I'd love to Hislop play, but with only playing one game since coming back from injury may work against him

according to our website, it's only shin splints. whether that's sugar-coating, who knows. really diappointed with that; i pay money to go see dempsey.

Still 8 weeks though, what about Reimers?

 

[Kong]

apparently he's out with a foot injury; my guess is they're taking a cautious approach though, and saving him from becoming the latest victim of our hamstring epidemic.

 

[bomberstomake8]

so who else do we have that could actually play for us this week?

hislop,
JJ,
neagle,
bellchambers?

appart from the rookies it seems like thats our choices left

Considering we saw Johns on Pendlebury, Winderlich in the back pocket & Ryder on the wing last week? NFI. Possibly ruck!
