Why is Schuback out? Why is Skipworth back in? Schuback has shown more than Skipworth has.

Why is Bode back in? He hasn't been playing that well in the SANFL, and I thought Ayres hated him?

And really...WHERE THE HEAVING F*CK IS RUTTEN?

Only 2 players on AFC have not be given a game this season. F Watts and he is due to get a game this week and RUTTEN......isnt that telling you some thing about him.

At least he's in the emergencies SD, shows they haven't completely forgotten about him.

Changes aren't too bad really, I thought they'd be worse.

Reilly and Bodey back in are good moves, improves the midfield, but I don't see the wisdom in bringing in Skippy for Schuey. The complete lack of faith shown in Schuback is troubling, I would have thought someone with his pace and foot skills would have been handy at Subiaco Oval.

Not sure about Biglands either, surely he's more of a pinchhitter up forward or down back? I don't think we need him as a defender this week and I don't reckon he's worth much as a forward.

And that's probably it for Nigel.

Why did they even bother keeping him on the list then?

I'm afraid you might be right there.

It would be nice to see him brought back at the end, though. Just for a farewell. Then Smart and Ayres can come onto the ground at the end and wave goodbye to the fans just like Blight did with Jameson and Liptak. ;)

Well this club is doing its finest effort to make sure young Schuback will want to go home and trust me folks when that happens that will come back and bite us

I don't think they have any AFL teams where Schuback comes from.

Schuback shouldn't be dropped. He should be given a full midfield game.

Damn right!

Why he's not allowed to settle in and develop and why we keep giving no hopers like Skipworth, Bode and Shirley a run I don't know.

3 ruckman?? WTF?

Basset and Reilly were the only IN's they got right this week!

Awful decisions AFC!

Alot of clubs submit their lists early to the AFL and they put it on their website.

I believe the AFL starts putting them up after 3pm.
 
Why the hell is Ladhams not in? Last week he had 23 odd possies and looked a class above the rest. This week he had 27 possies a goal, and looked a class above the rest again. Bode, who had 13 odd possies and looked ****, is brought in before him.

Dead set, does Ayres have rocks in his head?

Strange team this one.
Big ground - so we put in Bode and Skippy, who will be found wanting for pace.

Schuback, I mentioned after last weeks game appears very larconic when the ball was in his area. made last minute decisions to chase opposition players , or go for a ball.
Probably is getting spoken about his game intensity ATM.

Biglands on what i hear does not deserve an opportunity B4 Watts or Rutten?

But if your going to tank a season, this is how you do it.
 
I think the AFC believes that lightning does strike twice in the same place. Surely that can be the only reason behind Skippy's selection.

Last year he played a reasonable game at Subiaco with the chances that he got.

Schuback will be a better player than Skippy in the long run IMO. Having said that he didn't do much with his limited opportunities last week.

Overall, I don't think the selectors have done too bad a job.

I thought he was pretty good in the 1st quarter. He set up 2 scoring opportunities for his team mates but for some bloody stupid reason he was sitting on the pine.

Well picking 3 ruckman (stupid, stupid, stupid!) & Skippy instead of Schuey makes my tipping easier this week. ie. The Weagles. :(
Can't disagree with 4 of the outs. I thought Welsh was injured? Which SANFL team has the bye this week, as I gather they will take an emergency?
