Vote #1 - Paul Chambers

[Foreign Legion]

I reckon Roosy might give Jolly a rest this week. Jolly has an elbow injury and looks to be struggling a bit.

Because of the Bulldogs' lack of talls (especially if Street gets suspended) then Chambers and possibly Shaw would be up against vastly smaller players.

This could give Chambers (and Shaw) a lot of confidence and bring him into the game.

No, not suggesting we flirt with form, just that if Street goes it is the ideal opportunity to give him some confidence and introduce Shaw to the big time.

Always got Goodesy as a backup if it goes awry.

Street got off with a warning

Well there goes that idea - still think Jolly could use a rest though - he just seems to be below his best at the moment.

Street vs. Chambers, that alone is worth the entrance money

It'd be a little piece of history, 2 ruckmen 0 possesions.

Street's a possession machine compared to Chambers!

So, he is streets ahead?

He is indeed, it's amazing how a gangly, unco-ordinated appearance and awkward running style can be deceptive.

Agree that Jolly is down at the moment...almost as indecisive as LRT at times.
Whoever said Harry Madden didn't take a lot of marks & get numerous possessions is making it up. Do some research.
Chambers will be under pressure again (we are being nice at the moment just because we can...) as soon as we lose again. I'm mildly encouraged of late (he is getting a few decent knock outs)but still fail to see that his style can fit in a premiership team.

Thanks...not quite the picture painted by Barry...& these stats are only for the last few years of his Essendon / Carlton career.

Red And White Online got a mention last night on Triple M Melbourne. They were calling him torture all night and explained that it came from here.

Which must mean he was in the play a bit. Each time he got a possession there was a great cheer from the crowd.

Come up with a better replacement. Earl Shaw and Andrew Ericksen are 5 years away. By the way, he rucked well in the second half against Everett who is supposed to be the best in the business.

[timbo]

How about the Chambers attempt at the mark in the third quarter about 20 out from goal.

I was wondering if anyone had the confidence to kick it to him, screaming for it so close to goal.

I laughed when someone actually did.

And he did fumble the mark.
