Preview Preview/Changes Essendon v Gold Coast 4.40pm Saturday 22nd August @ Metricon Stadium

[vaughany]

In:
McKernan
Hurley
Kav

Out:
Giles (inj)
Myers (inj)
Steinberg (omit)

Gwilt and Zac Merrett still injured.
Pears did enough to keep his spot.
If Hurley doesn't get up then Steinberg stays or Ambrose could come in with a reshuffle.
Carlisle had a shocker today but keeps his spot.
I know Cooney and Chappy are fit but not sure giving them a farewell game is really warranted in this situation. Maybe if Zaharkis and Goddard pull up sore from the niggle injuries they got today then they may play.
McKernan will be withdrawn from playing VFL tomorrow to cover for Giles in the seniors next week.
Time running out for Winderlich and Fletch to get themselves up for a final round farewell game against Collingwood.

Cooney will return as a direct swap for Myers.

 

[Despair]

This is a must-lose game if we're going to be serious about tanking. Pick 3 potentially up for grabs.

 

[mike14]

was hoping to get to this game as I wanted to see a match at Metricon before leaving Brissy. I'm now away next weekend and sadly not disappointed at all about missing it

 

[windyhill]

You would think if g.coast had an off day it'd be around the 60pt range.

HB: Gleeson, Pears, Hibberd
C: Stanton, O'Brien, Goddard
HF: Zaharakis, Hooker, J.Merrett

Foll: McKernan, Hocking, Heppell
Int: Dempsey, Melksham, Cooney
Sub: Howlett

In: O'Brien, Cooney, McKernan
Out: Myers (inj), Giles (inj), Langford

Take no risks with injuries given we don't have much to gain by winning.

We're not as bad as Carlton, so GC by 40

If there was a Carlton v Essendon match upcoming you'd back the draw - like what happened last time both teams were in tank mode.

Nah, we'd win. They're losing by 54 to the current bottom placed side.

Hopefully Fantasia can have a good return in the 2nds a put his hand up for selection

My god it's depressing that this is where it's at.

Nah, we'd win. They're losing by 54 to the current bottom placed side.

I like that you are including their numbers, I still have to think twice when I see any of the current players with old numbers. No room for Madden, Neagle?

Edit: or Daniher(s)?
