What???

[DEES RULE!]

Sunday's game sees a few rather weird changes.
Firstly OXY, Nicho and Jolly are all back and Ellis and Marshall have been dropped!!!

Ok here are my thoughts...
We have no chance of making the finals so why risk Oxy and Nicho?? Why not let more young guys play?
And why was Ellis dropped??

But here are the good news..... our squad of 28 includes none other than Clarky..... the bad news... THE GAME IS NOT ON TV!!!

Here's the squad:
2 - Steven Armstrong
3 - Clint Bizzell
5 - David Schwarz
8 - Alastair Nicholson
11 - Darren Jolly
14 - Luke Molan
15 - Ross Funcke
16 - Travis Johnstone
17 - Michael Clark
18 - Brad Green
20 - Troy Broadbridge
22 - Shane Woewodin
23 - James McDonald
24 - Russell Robertson
25 - Nathan Brown
26 - Luke Williams
29 - Chris Lamb
30 - Simon Godfrey
31 - Paul Wheatley
32 - Cameron Bruce
34 - Jeff White
35 - Anthony McDonald
36 - Andrew Leoncelli
37 - Brad Miller
40 - Mark Jamar
41 - David Robbins
42 - Peter Walsh
45 - Matthew Whelan

Well good luck to them.... hopefully we can have a good win.... just no injuries or silly suspensions please!

I have heard different. On Channel Ten news, they said The Ox will not play because he is not at the right playing weight. In other words, HE IS TOO FAT
I would not think they would be silly enough to drop Ellis. There is no point. Maybe he is injured.

I didn't notice Ellis was dropped.........I doubt that will happen. I guess we will just have to check out the aquads in the paper tomorrow.

Or, Clark will still miss, there are still cuts that have to be made.

Ox will play (I hope)

Plus the game is live on Foxtel.....and guess what I have??

Or said he wasn't playing, I was going by that. (dangerous I know)
I hope Clark does play. Surely he can show once and for all how crap/good he is.
I won't be watching. I'll be at the Grand Prix.

Depending on how we play, I may not be watching either!!

I'll be too busy worrying bout my bro playing Falcons in Camperdown!

I recon the reason Ellis was dropped is to settle our backline for rounds 1+2, when Ellis won't be playing. With Nicho back, we will have an indication of how good our backline is going to be.

Hey, that is a pretty good point there mate! Well spotted!

 

[DEES RULE!]

Well on the Melbourne official site it says that Ox will be playing and that Ellis has been dropped SO whatever I wrote was based on what the club said.
And Adam the team for Sunday is a 28-men squad, if you count the number of players on the list I posted you will find there are exactly 28 players on that list meaning every single one of them will be at the game!

It seems Funke, Molan and Williams are playing for Sandy this week... suggesting they are going to be left behind.
allthough the team must name a 28 man side, I don't think they have to take all 28 players. There's hope for Clark yet!

Wrong. The aquad wil lbe 24 or 26.....why in the hell would they take 28?? They didn't when they went to Cairns. Why should they when they go to Adelaide?

That site is a bit like star signs in mags... if they are good I believe them if they are not I ignore them!

They have picked a squad of 28 each week and they cut it back each time. they will do the same this week.

Even if Clark does play, he will just sit on the bench.

See why would you say something like that? You know its not true because the last two games, whoever was on the bench ended up having a go... so you know its not true.
I just don't get why you would say something like that.... it really doesn't piss me off if thats what you are trying to do, because I know its not true.

I say it because I think that's what will happen. Sure, he will get a run, but it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if he spent the majority of his time on the bench.

If you didn't keep harping on about how great he is and that he should be given a go, then we wouldn't have to tell it like it is with Clark.

Ok you said he will just sit on the bench, obviously that didn't happen because he got ground time... yes it was 10 minutes and yes it is unfair coz he deserved more of a go especially coz we are losing by so much its too late to care!

I said he will spend the MAJORITY.......read that again....MAJORITY of his time on the bench......and did he?? I believe he did.

Thankyou very much!

Thats not what you originally said.
And also its not his fault he didn't get a run. Remember how Lamb was given like 1 minute runs a few weeks last year? I mean how can a player do anything like that? He apperantly did ok while he was on and hopefully he will get more of a chance in the practice matches we have coming up to impress ND and get selected.

I clarified what I said if u cared to read the damn thing!

And he won't get selected, seeing as we have 10 or so players to return. If he can barely get a run with them out, he won't have a chance in hell when they return.

You know what? there really is not point in arguing with you over this, we both have our opinion and we will see what happens.... if he never plays a game with Melbourne than I would be very disapointed and well that'll be the end of it!
