Preview Round 9 - Brisbane vs Essendon - Saturday 13th May 7:25 PM @ The Gabba

[Happyskeret]

I don’t want to alarm anyone but there is a reasonable chance that we are not going to win this Saturday night. I just don’t want to get people’s hopes up and help prevent people from melting in the aftermath.

Glad Menzie is starting 22 again.

Intrigued to see Baldwin at CHB.

 

[DallasCrane316]

Our match ups don’t actually look that disastrous

 

[BuffDog]

It feels like it’s the second half of 2012 again with the amount of injuries we’re getting.

Going to be ugly Saturday night

 

[Blind Turn]

If it bleeds, we can kill it… right?

 

[Duckworth]

If it bleeds, we can kill it… right?

If it has balls, we can kick it in the balls.

 

[andleanback]

Parish out it’ll be good to see the stringer setterfield with shiel/ merrett on ball more often

 

[bombreys]

They mustn’t think much of Montgomery - Lav, Cox, Stewart, Reid, Ridley and Kelly all out and he still can’t get a game. Wouldn’t think he’d be on the list next year.

Who will play on Gunston..?

Some costly outs but looking forward to seeing how Baldwin goes

 

[Blind Turn]

Very surprised Snelling not named if the forecast is for rain. Surely his hard, nuggetty, tackling style would be better than a slight, wirey, outside player like Davey.

 

[Blind Turn]

Scott finished his presser by saying there wouldn’t be any surprises at selection.

I didn’t see Parish being out.
I didn’t see Kelly being out.
I didn’t see Baldwin over Monty.
I didn’t see Davey over Snelling in the wet.

Not surprising really.

Langford on gunston

 

[Vindicater]

Montgomery as sub please so that he can push Langford forward.

 

[DallasCrane316]

Langford on Ashcroft. Baldwin on Gunston.

 

[Bombers36]

Montgomery as sub please so that he can push Langford forward.

Making Monty a SUB on debut?

[thaibomber]

Langford on Ashcroft. Baldwin on Gunston.

I think Ashcroft is too quick for Langers. I would have liked to have seen Montgomerie in and Langers up forward. but, such is life.

 

[ghostdog]

Tank mode begins. Back in the hunt for the Harley Reid Cup.

 

[Bombers36]

So we have 7 of our best 22 out injured:-

Parish, Laverde, Jones, Guelfi, Ridley, 2MP & Kelly

Then there’s Cox and Tsatas also who haven’t played this year…

Do we have the longest injury list in the AFL?

This is classic. Thanks for trying. There will be more melts than my kitchen making melted cheese toast for breakfast.

I didn’t see Baldwin over Monty.

Davey in = play the kids, but don’t play the kids!

 

[ghostdog]

The melts will be hilarious. We should just put a hard tag on all of them.

W. e've already won too many games for that prize. No way WCE win 3 more games and make up the %.

Two of those games are against us, aren't they?
