Danyle did seem to cop an injury on Wed ,spent a long time with the doc and then only lasted a few minutes Fri before leaving the main group.
The scuttlebutt on Fri was he was out.

Quite possibily the Dockers are resting up this game. With the new rules, wouldn't want the AFL getting upset lol
The eagles just drew with GC, no such thing as a sure thing.
(GC were robbed by a bad umpiring decision really...)

Orly? WCE robbed? Good to see
How big will the melts be tomorrow if Weller gets the vest and only gets on the ground 10 minutes into the last quarter..
Precaution I hope - if either Mundy or D Pearce don't come up, we'll be needing him (and possibly Langdon as well).
On the plus side, even if we lose, we retain top spot - and it gives our key mids a chance to gain some rest prior to the derby.
No melts from me, totally expected and understandable. Build him up into the finals. He's only 19 with one shortened AFL pre-season under his belt, he can't be expected to dominate at AFL level for an extended period of time.
I know it's not likely but I'd really love to see Weller get the start with MDB in the green. They can always sub him in if needed earlier & we see how the kid goes early when the heat is on.

Yes it is more or less what i expect as well. Depending on how the game is panning out of course, but mostly you want your experienced and hardenned AFL players in for most of the game, with your rookie/sub coming in for a taste at the end.

If it was me I'd start Lachie, with Tendai (or MDB) as sub.
The danger with Lachie as sub is we get an early injury and he has to play virtually the whole game. He may be OK fitness wise, but I'd rather the option of pulling him off when he's cooked and having a machine like Tendai ready to go.
You have also brought up the logical reason why RTB would use Weller as the sub. Freo's has a hard running defensive side to their game but rookies even fit rookies usually battle to run out an entire game. I would rather see Weller as the sub than MZ who is can easily run out four quarters.
Anyhow, next year we should not have to discuss this with the sub rule rumoured to be finishing.
Definitely Weller sub, this isn't about him. It's likely Ballas and Johnson are to be included before years end so who do we drop out of the finals squad..mz clancee mdb stcliffe dawson griff Zac Croz tabs AP. no point in any of these starting as a sub.
I don't get that reasoning. If we get an early injury everyone else has to virtually play the whole game. However, if he has been the sub, then he hasn't been on up until that point.
If Mundy is a late withdrawal I think that's the only way Weller can / should start.
