Interesting to see if there are any late changes.

 

[Darealrath]

Was hoping JJ would come in to help us at the stoppages, which is one of the pies strengths...maybe Monfries chance to step up?

**** I hope we smash them.

[Ben the Gooner]

We need our key forwards to fire to win this game.

Welsh on Shaw is a matchup I'd like to see for us.

 

[The Dustbin]

By the sounds of it.....
Wellingham who has been named as an emerg will play. Didak or Swan to miss?

 

[dave_27]

Was it Farmer or Medhurst who has been Welsh's bitch?

Or am I getting mixed up with Mcveigh?

 

[lamaros]

Daniher in Emergencies too.

I hope Johns has a great game.

 

[hulld]

although i think cj has talent as a defender, and it probably isn't good for his development for him to chop and change, i hope they play him solely as a forward for this week at least

McVeigh.

 

[Blind Turn]

Would've loved to have seen Myers on the big stage this week. Hoping Dempsey and Jetta aren't too far away either.

I hope Last Legs Lucky Laycock takes serious note of that named Ruck division. First ruck on ANZAC day. I'll be watching closely.

 

[retroparty]

So with Johns in the team Lloydy might be playing the bulk of the game at CHF. This will only be the case if Johns is put into the team to be a forward. But he should play up forward because our backline is looking good ATM.

Pears 3 games in a row! Well done son!

 

[AndyLesPaul]

WHY
WAS
LOVETT MURRAY OMITTED

was he that bad?

 

[Big Blow Hard]

WHY
WAS
LOVETT MURRAY OMITTED

was he that bad?

I'd like to know that also. He has been ok IMO. Have been plenty worse. Maybe a match up issue. He is emergency, so chance he will still be there.
I heard a whisper of a question mark over Lloyd again, hope not, but maybe a wait and see.

yeh

but like with emergencys i'd rather darcy play

unless there are two late changes

hehe

 

[retroparty]

Maybe Knights is going to bring in Daniher as a late change and Courtney Johns will pull out with a mysterious injury. Its just the sorta thing Sheeds would do. Then Daniher gets a taste for the league infront of 90,000 fans at the home of footy.

 

[Tyler16]

great to have johns in, but a big ask on a day like this. Good luck to him and hope he show us something

 

[rainman06]

I just checked the stats, Johns and Lloyd have only played in the same side on 5 occasions. I have a feeling they will work better together in the forwardline than Johns and Lucas. If you think about it, Johns will play deep freeing up lloydie to probably position himself 25-30m out but lloyd will still get the big stronger type in wakelin probably leaving johns with goldsack. If they disrespect him i think he is capable of kicking a few.

 

[flyin'high]

i'd love to see reimers on thomas and just ruff him up a bit and get in his face

 

[monty1104]

I'd love to see Johns have a "mind snap" and just flatten that little prick.

 

[Boris_Bewick]

Not unhappy to see NLM dropped. Can put a hit on from the front. But for a tall sort of key position player, with fantastic hands, he is unbelievably soft in the air. Has no idea.

 

[efcboy]

NLM only missed 1 week with a groin issue. i don't think he's been running at full stretch in his games so he could probably use a spell.

 

[daffo]

i'm happy to see NLM dropped but i worry about Johns....
