Opinion Next week, rest them.

[captain blood 17]

Next weeks game won't see our ladder position alter, so please rest Jack, Chaplin, Ivan, Cotch, Rance, Dusty, and Lids.
Do it, let's hit week one of finals full pelt with guys as healthy as can be.

I'd actually rather lose so we can play Port Adelaide.
Don't agree with resting players before finals though.

So if we lose and Collingwood win, our position won't change?

Is there a full moon tonight or something?

 

[Danog]

The only ones who look sore are cotch jack and Ivan.

Ivan looks sore?

 

[TheAnt]

The 1st and 3rd most consecutive current games active at the moment are Lids and Jack, infact Jack just played his 100th in a row today.

Ohhhhh boyyyyy!! I made the mistake of saying this before todays game! :S Inb4 haters

 

[THECHIEFTON]

Stuff resting them. Lets smash the Bombers and roll into the finals in form.

 

[Mr T]

Put them on ice for the week but keep up the high training load.

Shane Edwards in trouble. Hopefully a reprimand or 1 week at worst

So when Essendon are wiped from the season tomorrow, you'd be happy to play a full strength team? Where have you been living the last 6 months? Under a rock?
I'll fill you in.
James and the EFC have been a little naughty way, way back in 2012. Andy D wasn't too happy about this fact.
The EFC supporters have been drinking some coolaid from Jamestown and been in denial, but, they may be getting a reality check tomorrow.
So, long story short, when Essendon lose their points tomorrow, and are wiped from the season, Dimma, please the players from the first post please.

We can't lose against the bye, Essendons season gets wiped tomorrow.

Again, can't lose to the bye, why risk it?

Yep, game means nothing now, give him a rest as well. Play Coburg.

I pity the fool who disagrees with you Mr T. Give my regards to Faceman.

Why waste the many games of practise we have had at playing dead rubber games over the years.

Where have you been living?
Do you really think that the AFL wont persist with staging a match between Essendon and Richmond, even after they strip Essendon's points?
Do you think that if Richmond loses that match that the AFL will still award Richmond the 4 premiership points on offer?
Do you think that if Richmond rests the players you have mentioned, they will be any chance of beating Essendon who will still field their best team to try and go out on as strong a note as they possibly can?
Do you think that 56 + 0 somehow equals more than 56 + 4?

 

[Bird Man]

nah bury them

I'm happy to play either, so say we slip to 6th, and Port get a bump up to 7th, we play Port I'm Melbourne. People would be unhappy with that? Or we stay 5th and hopefully play Carlton who are nearly out on their legs.
Either way, we're in a good position.
Rest them.

pretty sure lids has carried a thumb problem for a while noticed the heavy strapping and lids has been a bit fumbly of late.

 

[Nuffers]

It's a great opportunity to freshen up some players and experiment with a few things... hope EFC don't lose points, not for bad governance.

 

[Frustrated Tiger]

Shane Edwards in trouble. Hopefully a reprimand or 1 week at worst

Can't remember who he hit but I do believe I saw Dusty throw a cheap one into the stomach of a GWS witches hat....probably just a love tap.
