Can Sylvia catch a break. Honestly he's been the only highlight for me this year. I spose if Brokc plays which i don't think he will then that could compensate. Can this kid catch a break?

Final bench (I hope)

Paul Johnson, Lynden Dunn, Brock McLean, Chris Johnson

We need to play 1 of CJ and Brown and I'd rather give Johnson another go. We can't have Dunn, Robertson and Miller in the same team. Miller has been terrible ever since Neitz returned so drop him. Dunn is the future, Miller most likely isn't.

What about Newton?
 
In: Frawley, McLean, Robertson, Bizzell, Holland, Johnson
Out: Ryan Ferguson (broken thumb), Colin Sylvia (hamstring soreness), Matthew Whelan (foot)

This season is ****ed.
If you have a look at the starting 18, Frawley, Robertson and Holland are all in there, so expect them to play.

Thankfully Miller is on the extended bench, so he may be an out. :thumbsu:

We can now only sit and hope that Chook gets up.

I have a feeling there are deeper issues regarding Newton, anyone else would have played seniors with the form he has been in. Frawley, for example, has played 1 (rather average) game for Sandy and is instantly in the team.

CJ deserves a run, BOG for Sandy on the weekend.

That's it. **** off Daniher - I now officially support his sacking. Any goodwill I had from actually liking the man has just evapourated.

No other options, Ferg and Rivers both injured, Bizzell not tall enough to play CHB, Miller too dumb, Dunn ineffective and Warnock just isn't ready.

B: Daniel Ward, Nathan Carroll, Ricky Petterd
HB: James Frawley, Ben Holland, Daniel Bell
C: Travis Johnstone, James McDonald, Aaron Davey
HF: Brad Green, Russell Robertson, Cameron Bruce
F: Adem Yze, David Neitz, Matthew Bate
FOLL: Jeff White, Simon Godfrey, Nathan Jones
I/C (from): Paul Johnson, Lynden Dunn, Clint Bizzell, Brad Miller, Brock McLean, Nathan Brown, Chris Johnson

Yes, you'd think that there might be a place in a forward line that has the lowest goal-average for a young bloke who can take a big mark and kick a goal. But no, Daniher will stick to his conservative, wish and hope planning even if it kills him.
 
Please FFS don't play Miller or Bizzell this week, they are finished, I'm a critic of doggy Brown but he at least plays some good games and often looks a little co-ordinated. No team deserves to win with the combined skills of Godfrey, Carroll, Holland, Miller and Bizzell.

Ever week more and more I'm get the feeling that Newton will go to another club and become a star, with no VFL this week he wont play next week, hopefully he puts in a ripper next week for sandy and then debuts against the pies, kicking 5 with us winning by 10 goals!!!

If Brock was right they wouldn't name him on the bench would they???

Final bench: Paul Johnson, Lynden Dunn, Nathan Brown, Chris Johnson

Chris Johnson needs to be played as a midfielder - otherwise we have too many defenders in this team - as he was with some success in the nab cup, he can drop back across the half back line and use he skills.

Carroll - Brown
Holland - Petrie (those two can be swapped)
Bell/Frawley - Edwards (tough job for either of these two but Carroll has been useless this season)

Who will play of Shannon Grant, Options would be Godfrey (rather him on Harvey), Ward (accountability), Petterd or Frawley(experience) or Bell (needed else where).
Simpson needs to be stopped off the half back line, I'd go with Nathan Brown, CJ or Lynden Dunn as defensive forwards.
 
In: Frawley, McLean, Robertson, Bizzell, Holland, Johnson
Out: Ryan Ferguson (broken thumb), Colin Sylvia (hamstring soreness), Matthew Whelan (foot)

This season is ****ed.

Bodan Bobbicockle strikes again. Seriously, how many hamstring injuries have we had this year?? And Rivers seems to be struggling to get over his hamstring/back soreness when he usually plays week in week out.

We should really show this clown the door at the end of the year along with daniher.

Why does Miller keep being picked? He does nothing! I use to dislike Holland but Miller is far worse. Can't we give the young kids a go? We have nothing to lose!

Not letting him in the door would have been a better idea, if your reading this hawthorn supporter who called it when BB was signed then kudos to you
 
Of that bench PJ, Brock, Dunn and flip a coin.

I have a question to ask of Sandy followers, is Newton really that good? Does he warrant selection that badly? I have never been an advocate of the 'play the kids' stance as thats what teams like Carlton have trotted out the last few seasons to save their coach getting sacked, but I'm on board the kids bandwagon now. I mean, 0-8! Why the **** not.

Anyways, I'm note sure what good it does having Holland in the team or Biz for that matter. Neale obviously wants a bit of experience to chalk up the first win of the season, and if we win the decision is vindicated, lose....and the knives will be at the ready.

We should win this game seriously, how the hell have North won five games in a row! I don't rate them at all. Have to admire them them though.

Thank god Mcleans out.

He was giving me nightmares.
 
to be fair with mclean, as soon as melbourne have a player ready to become one of the best in the comp, they get injured, schwarz, lyon, jakovich.
