Out: Fletcher (injured), Hird
In: Camporeale (if he is fit), Nash (if he is fit)

The only reason that I am dropping Hird is that I would hate to see him injure himself this late in the season and spoil his preseason. He has proved he is still the player he used to be with some great games against Hawthorn and Brisbane.. I think he should get an early rest and save those muscles from any soft tissue injuries. Have a big preseason and hopefully go out with a bang next year, or stay on for one more :)
 
OUT - Fletcher, Dyson, Rioli
IN - Lucy, Nash, Campo

Lucy was drafted as a defender, lets have a look at him.
Nash for Dyson, Nash will give us more. Dyson is battling.

Rioli is a hard one, expose him at the G or against the Dogs. I'm tempted to leave him till Round 22.
 
IN-Lee, Lonergan, Nash(if fit, if not then Dempsey)

OUT-Fletch, Bolton, Pev

Time to play some young fellas. Whats there to lose, all we do is gain experience and match time for them.
 
In: Lee, Nash(if Fit), Lonergan
Out Fletcher(Inj), Rioli(rested), Dyson(omitted)


JJ may miss cause of his incident with Mitchell ( I didnt see it but have heard about it)

In previous weeks yes. I counted 4 mistakes out of his 8 possies vs Collingwood but i thought he played well on the weekend.
 
i dont recon theyd drop Rioli. He plays his 100 and i would rather him play against richmond that against the bulldogs.

Sheeds has already hinted that he may rest Rioli this week and keep him fresh for the last game against the doggies

Yeah, Id have him in at the Doggies, although if they put Morris onto him..the midfield will have their work cut out for them having to pinpoint Rioli with Morris being their fastest at the club.

Need to tag Cooney out and McVeigh on Johnno again (cant wait for that one) Grant worries me for this one..Fletcher wouldve been ideal and not sure where they'll play Bradley against them.

Oh yeah, Tigers first!

16 possesions - 0 clangers in less than 3 quarters of footy.

He was one bloke along with NLM that tucked the footy under the arm and ran. Although i suspect Ricky is a little sore, even when he took off he struggled to get to full pace. I suspect thats why his game time has been limited over the last month.
 
I think we saw a perfect example of where Dyson's mind-set is at in the third quarter when he passed instead of having a shot from 50-55m.

We need him kicking those goals, he has done in the past. It's his bread and butter.

He's battling.
 
why omit dyson?... these last two games we have nothing to lose, the kids should be getting as much time as possible - i dont think resting hird is such a bad idea and maybe even solly who's had his knee trouble - give them a decent holiday - there's probably more to be gained from playing kids rather then bringing campo back in before seasons end IMO.. show us the kids!!:thumbsu:

Id say theyre all pretty sore at this stage of the season. If we can get through without another injury...we can have all of our blokes ready for pre-season.

That's what im hoping for more than draft picks, wins etc. If we can get a full pre-season into most of our list we should see a lot of improvement, especially with the kids in regards to size and endurance.

He needs to be a little bit more selfish.

He looked alright in the middle in terms of his ability to win the ball at ground level and dish off, doesnt fumble(double grab to keep Dermie happy). Second only to lovett at out club in terms of that skill IMO

Good question does anyone know?

I think he will be.

Just looking at the club site, Campo has been ruled out for the rest of the season.

I know there is only two games to go, but we have 12 blokes (including Rama) out for the remainder of the season, and Ryder and Winderlich will be touch and go.

Would rather play cartledge and Lonergan then rush Ryder and Winder back even to Bendigo.
We have what... 30 to choose from ? Not as bad as the dogs but.. 24 or something...
 
I reckon we'll have about 26-27 to choose from.

Lee got injured at Bendigo, not sure he'll be right.
And I'm making the presumption JJ will get a week.

So from the 22 that played last week, we'll have 20 available if Rioli can get up. Technically it's 19.25 but I've counted Mark Bolton as a whole player.

Nash (if fit), Lucy, Cartledge, Lonergan, Cole and Firman if he has been promoted would give us 26.

Not sure on Dempsey's status.

If Firman hasn't been promoted and Nash, Dempsey and Rioli aren't right, we could potentially only have 23.

Geez makes that senior player on the rookie list thing seem like a good idea doesn't it...
