Embley Out

[The Hoops]

Late mention of TFS that Embley won't be playing even though named - apparently received by fax from the Eagles.

sheesh... Eags under the pump now... who will come in? Nico/Ebert/Kennedy?

 

[kingyubbo]

Everyone's hoping Nico and I think he'd come in. DT has been really bad for me this year. Embley!

 

[BartBart]

I'd guess Nicoski in for Embley and (possibly) Kennedy for Cox.

 

[frantelle]

surely rosa would come in, if not i'd think fletcher

 

[BartBart]

Rosa is already an inclusion in the 22. The Emergencies are Kennedy, Nicoski & Ebert.

 

[Tman24]

Will we find out if Nicoski is in for Embley before the lockout??

 

[BartBart]

From memory as long as the Eagles make notification to the AFL and Sydney who they are going to bring into the side I think they can. I assume that means they can name another emergency - though that won't matter since the team has already travelled.

Does anyone know whether Nicoski travelled to sydney as an emergency. If so I would think he's a very good chance to replace Embley. Would have thought dropping Nicoski WC would be keen for him to go back to WAFL and get a game this week.

I have little doubt Eagles could bring anyone in for this game even if they are not on the emergency list. The problem is i think the Eagles have already travelled so i doubt anyone who is at home would make the trip across.

I wouldve thought Chad Fletcher would be the pick, but i doubt he made the flight over...i have heard Nicoski flew over as an emergency, but have no confirmation on this.

I hope its Nicoski, because i also have pfeiffer on an extended bench and cannot cover both. I was going to trade off nicoski, but i have bigger fish to fry elsewhere with a few big name injuries and others 50/50 to play...and would prefer to build up money and trade him up instead of down.

Been hit for 6 this week with injuries, so i hope its Nicoski...even if he is a dud its better to get his 40 than 0, especially if Pfeiffer is dropped

Todays West Australian has Nicoski as the only travelling emergency. So with Embley out he's in the 22

Confirmed. Too late for me, trade already done!.
