Yup, really important he hits the scoreboard or at least clunks a mark or two early.

Just bringing the ball to ground and leading his man out of the way will be a win. Brown, who he is replacing is not known for ‘clunking a few’.

 

[Maddogm]

Got the wrong directions on Google Maps and ended up here...

Should have turned left at Albuquerque

Lost in time? Haha

I have no doubt he is good enough to that but i always found him to start off really good and sort of fade away late in quarters especially since brown’s position is arguably the most taxing

Go get em, Dons!

There's no way he has the endurance to play Brown's role. I can't see him leading 100m and marking out front over and over. Hoping Stringer and Joe play higher and he sits on the goal line and clunk's.

I've tipped geelong but god damn, i'd love to win.

[DallasCrane316]

Yeah, I’d say Smith is the most likely out.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

McNiece not playing VFL either. Hopefully just back up.

Geelong has realised what a big out Myers is for us and they decided that now they can afford to rest Selwood...maybe Danger, GAJ and Tommahawk are next?

Cats have held back 3 players from VFL - they’re making a change or 2 for sure.

Double header at the MCG heading into the match:

VFL Essendon (1) vs Geelong (11)
AFL Geelong (1) vs Essendon (11)

Funny coincidence.

Can whoever is doing the pregame rant please use the elongated head photo for GAJ again in the team lineups section?
