New: Steele Sidebottom (Murray Bushrangers)

WOO HOO, RUSTY'S FINALLY BEEN NAMED.

Yes it is only an extended bench, but he had to be named, to my knowledge he hasnt even been an emergency yet.

Guess we all know about Beams now, hope it's not too bad.

It's minor.

glad to see they left him out at an early stage instead of playing him and giving it a chance to worsen.

Danny Stanley named......did somebody get Malthouse drunk?

 

[Porkaspies09]

Medhurst depending on injur, im thinking wellingham will play ahead of sidebottom

 

[smiddaz123]

Also, I can pretty much say for sure that there is no chance both Stanley and Sidebottom will be in the final team.

 

[Invigoration]

No chance Wellingham would go out this week. Like 0%.

Same chance for Sidey imo as well, I think he is only before Reid to get a gig out of that list... Never know though I guess.

Hope Medders gets up, our forward line looks a bit lacking without him.

 

[Porkaspies09]

yeh pretty big ins ,geez i am very surprised medhurst is in ,did he train when we last trained and how did he go, i cant beleive reid gets a game same with leigh brown.

 

[buzzbuzz]

They're not going to name Ben Reid for fun; as a KP player he's in for match-up reasons. Medhurst is in doubt and .. I just don't know. Will the emergencies be Sidebottom, Stanley and Wellingham? I hope not. I would have thought that this would be a great game for both Stanners and Sidey to come in. And the worst possible game for Rocca to come in.

 

[mattys123]

If Medhurst doesnt come up, Sidebottom has to come in, Ben Reid and Danny Stanley are useless as forwards at AFL level, and Rusty is a natural goalkicker, just like Meds, Dids, Leon etc.

I hope Reid has been named for reward for a good effort, but is not even under consideration to play, he is just developing nicely at VFL level in the backline, another 3-4 weeks and he will be flying.

yeah i know i said either wellingham or sidebottom, but really wellers has that spot covered for nor

we have named our emergencies today, no one would of batted an eyelid if Reid was an emergency. He really isnt good enough for reidwoldt or strong enough for kosi and up forward he isnt a good enough forward to be respected by any of the saint backline.

Just because he is a KP player doesn't mean he was named with the definite intention of playing him. He is no different to any other bloke being named on the bench, definitely no certainty just because he is named.

We get to name 5 ins, he is obviously in contention, but I can't see him playing.

 

[buzzbuzz]

I'd definitely hope Stanley at least is ahead of Reidy in our selector's minds, based on form.

Is anyone else worried about Rocca?

 

[Axl the great]

Reid has come in because Rocca is still tentative IMO if Reid comes in he goes forward.
Steele will only play i would think is if Medhurst doesnt come up, Stanners is little to no hope to play (unless Shaw doesnt play) and the rest will probably stay the same.

Yeah I dunno, I reckon it could go either way if Medders isn't named...

Stanley isn't dissimilar to Medhurst when he plays on the flank at VFL level. He has great hands which are one of Medder's greatest attributes. Stanley obviously doesn't do mercurial like Medhurst, but I with the grooming put into him lately to play forward I'd be more inclined to swap him in.

Sidebottom had a great TAC cup as a forward, I dunno whether they see him as a permanent forward though.

 

[Brodeywa]

People are a bit harsh on Reid, very young and KP player which always take longer. The more games he plays now the better he will be. In my opinion very good prospect better than most clubs have.

Leight Brown he isnt in our best 22 maybe Melbourne's but not ours...

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Also, I can pretty much say for sure that there is no chance both Stanley and Sidebottom will be in the final team.

They'll both play if both Shaw and Medhurst dont.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Leight Brown he isnt in our best 22 ...

No he's not but for better or for worse the selection committee think hes a better option than Bryan or Wood, at least temporarily.

 

[Heater39]

Leigh Brown picked again!

Rocca, Shaw and Medhurst will all be touch and go imo. I'd rather see Reid in over Rocca atm, he's fitter and more versatile, Rocca will be a liability against the Saints.

 

[Dylz48]

Verry happy obviously with the outs they named obviously either Reid or Rocca will come in for Jack and either Stanners or Rusty will come in for Beamer

I personally would prefer Reid and Stanners to come in.

I think It would be nice to see how Reid play CHF/FF and don't think Rocca is fit

I'd like to see Stanners come in as I think he has been in great form in the VFL and I think Sidebottom won't be short of opportunity whereas Stanners seems to be

Obviously you haven't been watching VFL. Stanners has been great 4 straight goals is OK in my opinion........

Rocca is done! Think Frazer Gehrig in his comeback season. Unless a miracle happens this season is Ants last. Respect for his efforts over the years. Much loved.

Time to give some game time to the next generation.
