There is zero chance of 2 of them playing next week.
Georgy is injured, Scully is an embryo and the other 3 are ruckmen.
Lycett is cooked but celebrating injuries is pretty sad of you.
No way Teakle plays next week after that.

All the discussion post-Eagles game has been playing him in the ruck instead of Teakle.
3 possessions. Forward or ruck, that's not enough.
Hayes has played FF bar one cba just before 3/4 time

I think you’re both right in context.
I wouldn’t expect noodle-armed young talls to be default-superior to grizzled old star B-graders, and your Dimitri Toumpas/Zane Kirkwood/Jack Trengove types should comfortably show up 18/19yo mids, but by and large a full-time AFL-listed player of any description should be better than the weakest 5-6 guys on an SANFL team.
You can't be dominated the way Teakle was against Williams. No matter how banged up Lycett is, he would have knocked him over and held him so while Lycett would have a handful of touches at least Williams doesn't get 13 clearances.
We have no ruckmen up to playing against the Saints. Finlayson and Dixon are clearly our most effective ruck combination. That’s going to deprive our forward line for the rest of this year with Georgiades on the long term injury list.
Next week with Marshall, Dixon and Georgiades injured, we are going to look like a complete rabble in the ruck and forward of centre. Not sure how we compete - it will be like Sydney.

Collingwood b&f winner Fellowes no less. He turned out to be a handy reserves player. ******* useless at league level though

I thought Smallridge was from WA, there was a medium sized collingwood bloke who came to Alberton at about the same time as Fellowes, I can't remember his name but he was fairly solidly built and had a number 2 hair cut.
He played ok in mid season game against Hawthorn when we had about 6 - 8 regulars unavailable and went close to knocking them off.
Can anyone at the ground enlighten us to what's happening with Sinn 8 touches 0 clearances is he playing full back?

Smallridge and Fellowes, 2 of the slowest players I have seen in a Port guernsey

No, Russell Ebert was the coach for the game against the hawks, from memory it would have been around 1985 or 86.
There was a Maggie half forward named Russell Evans who transferred to West Adelaide when Jack coached there, and I believe he was from Broken Hill.

We played Hawthorn in 1985, Fellowes was here in 1991.
There was a guy from Collingwood in 1985 Mark Lawson
