Is there a limit on the number of times we can use a particular top-up throughout the season? How do they choose who to play when? I have no idea how the top-ups work.

Looks like a few statements made today.

[kulak]

Nice. Would be great to see Hopper back in time for finals.

 

[fridgeman]

Big win from the ressies which is to be expected with the injuries and inexperience to the suns, still need to see a dominant performance from Stewart for him to push for a senior game although if that is due to structures/game plan rather than ability? Another positive is the accuracy in front of goal and good to see WHE having a significant impact in the game
Anyone understand how the finals works in the NEAFL?

Straight in for Reid this week you'd imagine.

Straight in for Reid this week you'd imagine.

Reid def under pressure this week. Steele's numbers look just as good though. 8:3 tackles vs 6:10 marks. Everything else close. WHE just as good and is starting to put some form together.

Bunts has to be close to a recall over HH or Tommo. Weagles mobile talls might see us stick with Tommo.

I want Apples back this week.

And I just prefer Hopper over Steele overall.

Also happy to have WHE play next two weeks in NEAFL and then come out and star for us in the finals series.

Reckon Corr another week at least. Freo would be a good game for him to return. Reckon he might struggle to break back in unless he blitzes in the magoos.

Really?

I think he's a moral to play if he's fully fit.

 

[Raymann]

WHE is the only chance to get a game this week. I would expect he might come in for Reid

Yeah, at this time of the year it has to be about form. I would much prefer him down back for Tommo, but not if he is building confidence and form.

Would be interesting to see what happens if Dylan comes up.

HH goes out and Zac goes back

Reasonable, lose a bit of height with that call.

 

[Ichabod Noodle]

Just sitting here watching a backline of Mohr, Corr, Buntine, Wilson (w/McKenna and #47) not a bad set-up back there.

Still don't know why Wilson was dropped.

Energy and form have been down since coming back from injury, Leon said he knows he hasn't been doing enough to keep his spot and he is sure he will work his way back into the team..

We just don't seem "on" when he's not there.
