Ins and outs.

Will the media beat up get TFG banned for being close to an umpire.
Will Green and Perryman get up?

Whose in and whose out for the battle to end the Traitors dream.

OUT: Second half fade-out
IN: 4 quarter effort

At the risk of being shot, we don't need Toby to beat the Cats.

We might get Daniels or XOH back, but regardless, we'll be fine.

I may disagree with you in what TFG should get, but I would never shoot you.

Maim you possibly buy never shoot.

Leon in his post game said MDB was on crutches? Tanner seems like the most like for like swap if he's out for next week, not sure how Cumming is gonna go Leon seemed pretty optimistic that the roll wasn't too bad and he's a chance for this week. Reid was listed as injured on the AFL app so he might be another forced change. Not sure how far off Daniels and XO are, if healthy would like to see both back in adds an element of speed that we lacked today.

If MDB and Reid are injured would bring in Bruhn and XO.
Briggs to come in for Mummy, he again looked wrecked at the end.

I know you're not a Mummy fan, but the way he played today showed why he's so important to us. And at the age of 35!

Mummy had a huge game for us though.

Yeah Mummy looked pretty rough towards the end which is totally fine considering his body and age at this point, Briggs was fantastic against Geelong the other week and would back him in again, love his work around the contest.

Mummy had a big writeup in the SMH, I don't think he'll be playing back to back to back so do we rest him this week and gamble or next week and go double or nothing?

 

[Colonial]

Ok. Settle. I love Mummy I know he had a massive game but he was done in the end.

I am a mummy fan. Just think we have options not to rely on a guy who can only play 3 quarters every few weeks.

well that dismissal of him as good every 3 weeks for 3 quarters says it all .... you either don’t watch footy or you don’t understand it

 

[Land of the Giants]

By the way...next week is a Semi-Final, not a Qualifying Final.

Need to amend the thread title.

Nice response. Appreciated. All the best.

AFL 2021 FINALS FIXTURE - WEEK 2 (All times AEST)

Second Semi Final: Geelong Cats v GWS Giants

Optus Stadium, likely Friday 3 September 7:50pm

First Semi Final: Brisbane Lions v Western Bulldogs/Essendon

Gabba, likely Saturday 4 September 7:20pm

Injury report will be waited on with a lot if interest this week

Cumming, Green, MDB (injured late in the game?)

Media circus over Greene will get so many clicks and how good is that for the overall bottom line of the AFL, his salary should be outside the cap or he should get a portion of the revenue from the articles
Hoping he plays but with the way the organisation works I am not holding out hope

Who comes in Davis, Hill, cupboard is thin after that with Buntine and Stone the only other realistic options in terms of non talls

 

[fridgeman]

Game 100 for Hogan as well
