In's & Outs + teams

[BT]

Out: Bizzell, Thompson, Sylvia

In: Armstrong, Read, Walsh, Jamar, Williams, Broadbridge

No Bell?

Perhaps not the time to blood any kids, against the 3 time regining premiers.

Willo alert!

Unless Willo is Biz's replacement it looks like Broabridge will play.

Jamar may not be needed unless we're looking to take the early physical pressure off Whiteman.

Read must play!

Arma or Walsh? I prefer Walsh, he killed Brisbane in 2002.

I'm with you but maybe he wants Belly to debut at the G too.

We've favoured experience & that can't be all bad against the three time reigning premiers.

perhaps the sight of us having 2 ruckman (white and jamar) scared brisbane into bringing back Mclaren premature

in: read, walsh, broadbridge

broady is Biz's replacement im sure of it

same position and physical appearance....except for hair colour

i realli should have said same size

 

[demon21]

I hope Jarmar dosent play this week. Because when white plays the whole game in the ruck he is outstanding.And when jolly does come back I just hope that white still plays at least 80% in the ruck while he is in top form.

I think we know what you mean

Who knows what tactics we will go in with? Brisbane may not line up as selected they have a hell of a lot of blokes that aren't 100%. I don't think we can afford to try & predict what they might do. We simply have to play to our stregths, apart from the first half against Geelong we haven't done anything wrong since Round 1. We can cause them plenty of headaches.

I dont get why they promoted Broadbridge instead of Lamb to replace bizzell. Lamb played a much better game for Sandy last weekend. Ever since the start of 2003 hes been out of favour, why is that?

We just do not know Wilko...

He's obviously behind Carroll, I know he's Mark Riley's mate but c'mon ND!

Ferguson has just resumed with Sandy two's I'm tipping he will have leapfrogged Lambster by Round 16.

Broady is more the Bizzell type i guess.

I suppose Nicho's playing in his spot.

He must be traded or else the poor bloke will waste away in the VFL forever.

 

[melbournemartin]

lamb is more of a stay at home fullback which we have, nicholson

broady is more similar to bizzel
