Like the in's. All we need to do is drop Pratt. We can play with 24, surely.

BTW, where the **** is Speight?!?!

 

[Daz]

Good changes.

Will be interesting to see what happens with the 3 HB's on the ext bench.

Speight unlucky again.

 

[grimface_87]

If only this was the team last week

Nice changes

 

[GarnerSmash]

Good ins. At least one of McMahon and Pratt to make way. Love to see a bench of Cunnington, Harper and Anthony, with Campbell as the sub.

 

[MaddAdam]

I suspect the last we'll ever see of McKinley. Good ins. Atley clearly needed the rest.

 

[tazaa]

Welcome back Flash.
Id make Richo, McMahon and Pratty the emergencies.
Narni needs to find touch. No preseason really killing him.
This should have been the team last week though.
All in all Delaney and Atley good ins. Campbell and Harper must play.
No BS BS.

 

[Hunters Host #3]

I thought Campbell would be given one more week.

However, I like his inclusion when I think of whom he may exploit.

 

[Flawed Genius]

Weeeee! Hi Flash.

 

[Arden]

Love seeing Flash back. Should he play, expect LT's eyes to light up, he grows in stature when Campbell is out there.

Would rather Atley play last week and be rested this week but oh well.

And good to see Delaney straight back into the team.

 

[tazaa]

Knowing Brad though i reckon the only other in will be Campbell for Pratt.
Harper wont displace McMahon. Otherwise wed all have gotten what we wanted and then BF will lose its shit.

 

[grimface_87]

Umpires: L.Farmer (4), S.Ryan (25), J.Mollison (32), J.Sch(m)itt (17)

 

[Flawed Genius]

Bench should be LA, Cunners, Harps & Flash.

 

[Zondor]

B.McKinley (Omitted)

But don't fear fellow posters. Brad Scott is still perserving with 4 tallish marking types up forward this week. Brad has listened to Teffy and will be starting Zjay Zeebell up forward as a marking target.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Bench should be LA, Cunners, Harps & Flash.

Should be, but wont I would say.

 

[adas]

the outs were self evident. no real surprises there.

i am a tad disappointed they've gone delaney over tarrant.

agreed that one of either mcmahon or pratt should be dropped for an injection of run through the backline..

 

[muttley45]

Umpires: L.Farmer (4), S.Ryan (25), J.Mollison (32), J.Sch(m)itt (17)

Sch{m}idt,OH NO,i have seen enough of this clowns work

 

[Zondor]

N.Grima (Omitted)

I'm a Grima fan but he has really struggled this year and has paid the price for his poor form. Yes, his season has been cruelled by injury but this is the right move. Play guys who are in form. Drop guys who are not.

All in all I don't mind the changes thus far. Would have liked to have seen Speight on the extended bench ahead of Richardson but can understand why Richo gets another sniff at playing a game.

This team thus far looks more balanced then last weeks but I reserve my right to go ape shit if the final changes aren't to my liking. Yes Pratt should also make way. :stern look

 

[Roomagic]

Garlett????

 

[Arden]

i am a tad disappointed they've gone delaney over tarrant.

Why? Delaney hasn't put a foot wrong.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Garlett????

We are covered for inside mids with Wells, Swallow, Ziebell, Greenwood, Cunnington, Bastinac.

 

[adas]

Why? Delaney hasn't put a foot wrong.

fair call... and definitely not knocking delaney who as you said, hasnt put a foot wrong.. i guess i just want to find out whether Tarrant is/can be the kpp we are looking for..

 

[Roomagic]

We are covered for inside mids with Wells, Swallow, Ziebell, Greenwood, Cunnington, Bastinac.

Just think its bullsh*t hes not even getting looked at. Not even an emergency.

 

[Clappa87]

I actually thought Tarrant would get a game this week. I am starting to wonder with him falling so far down the pecking order that he may be used as trade bait come seasons end....

Personally happy with the changes this week. Mckinley and Edwards in the same forward line doesnt seem to work and Edwards deserves to keep his spot. Grima is struggling and needs some time in the twos to build up fitness and confidence could be an important in later in the year.

Not sure what is with all the Harper love. He is still to small to make an impact at AFL level. He has been given a taste and i have like what i have seen, I would personally prefer him to continue his development in the twos build up his body over pre season and become an important player for us next year

Bench for me should be LA, McMahon,Cunners and Flash to be played as sub. I wouldnt be surprised tho to see Pratt hold his spot.

 

[Phaze Away]

I agree that the bench should be Anthony, Cunnington, McMahon and Campbell.

 

[AngryLittleMan]

I think one of Pratt and Mcmahon should stay. I can see a Flash/LT sub combo developing.
