Yep, either that or tanking

I don't think it will alter the score line!!

Could have said something before I made changes to my Fantasy Footy Team.... Oh well serves me right for changing early....

Nice, helps my supercoach match up this week.

Has to be Duncan and Varcoe in now doesn't it?

It will also enable Duncan and Hogan to get more game time through the middle.

Christensen or Varcoe in?

All that extra weight from carrying the team the first 5 rounds.


Put your feet up Gazza!

Re: Abbers Out against the Tigers!

Hopefully the bench (+1 for Ablett) are Blake, Byrnes, Hogan, Duncan and Christensen.

I couldn't handle Gamble or Djerkurra again

* Assuming the club learned the lesson last week with Rooke and won't be stupid enough to play Varcoe.

Re: Abbers Out against the Tigers!

Oh dear. Must make a DT trade now.

But the Cats come first. Right decision to rest the rolls royce rather than it becoming a 4 week injury. I'd say Varcoe will be straight back in, and Chappy will play more in the midfield, is my tip.

Re: Abbers Out against the Tigers!

So no Corey OR Ablett. Christ our run will be down.

Time for Jimmeh to step it up and grab 3 Brownlow votes.

I think he will. I think I'll even make him my captain this week.

Abbers ?

Yeah, that is a might gay thing to call him.

Re: Abbers Out against the Tigers!

Wouldn't be surprised to see Varcoe seeing as we have so little run.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Re: Abbers Out against the Tigers!

AFL website has DJ in the forward pocket. So is he definitely playing? I thought he was only in the 25?

Re: Abbers Out against the Tigers!

Agreed...I know it's a risk to bring him straight back in the seniors, but as he said, he's been running for a few weeks now so he should be right.

I just hope there's no more late withdrawals.

Re: Abbers Out against the Tigers!

Does he have a meeting in Queensland and cant make the game?

It is predicted to rain on Sunday, so that's a distinct possibility.

I'd prefer to see Christensen make a well earnt debut.

Re: Abbers Out against the Tigers!

Lines gone from -60.5 to -28.5 since the Ablett news.
Surely a lot of you guys would be jumping all over this?

I didnt know that, but wet weather = a sure thing on Jim. 36 touches, 10 marks and 2 goals. Mark it down.

Agree on the Christensen point too.

Re: Abbers Out against the Tigers!

I went to afl.com and saw the picture of gaz with the headline 'CAT SHOCK' and I nearly shat my pants.

It's going to be an ugly game on Sunday.

I would if I could find it. All the sites I've justed checked - TAB Sportsbet, Luxbet, Betfair, etc - are still quoting the line at ~60.

Where did you see 28.5??

Re: Abbers Out against the Tigers!

I think if we were playing any other team but Richmond, Ablett would be playing. They are obviously not risking an injury to him in a game that we should win, and win by a fair margin, if the boys are switched on.
