    Kirk Out: Spriggs In

    The time has come. Spriggs has been BOG in the 2's week in and week out. Kirk has been a passenger. With the knock to the head comes the opportunity to drop Kirk without losing face and gives Spriggs the opportunity he deserves. We know we wont lose anything in terms of skill, and Spriggs will add pace to the middle (Port will flood and the flood is beaten by speed through the guts), and give Kirk a week to get over what ever it is he is suffering from. Might also spur him into action for the rest of the season, the sting of watching on from the side lines.

      Possibly the funniest piece of comedy I've read on this site.

      Nothing against Spriggsy, who probably deserves a chance, but if Kirky is fit, Kirky plays. Simple as that.

        Great reasoning there. Call mine comedy but at least I had a reason. The Kirk plays because he is Kirk argument is crap. His credits are gone. He is a passenger atm.

          You took the words right out of my mouth but I don't think Kirk should play, that was such a nasty hit he copped.

          He would be better off resting himself & then be ready to rock n roll against the dons.

            Interesting concept. If Kirk is unfit, spriggs could tag Burgoyne.

              How about we play a game where we have minimal tags and play football instead? Perhaps put Ablett on Burgoyne, as Ablett is useless at getting the ball, and everyone else can just focus on the ball. Why not put in Spriggs (or Schmidt) for Kirk? It's not like Kirk is providing anything significant for the team.

                Well the way they waxed lyrical about Kirk 'on the couch' tonigh it would be a major shock to the football world if he EVER got dropped. Kellyesque was one term bandied about. BTW, I noticed on the injury report that Ben Mathews is meant to be missing the next couple of weeks due to a calf strain.

                      Sing it sister!! I'd drop ablett first too. And to the people who think he should rest because he has had such a bad knock, this guy wanted to play within 10 minutes of being knocked out!! Give him 7 days and he'd run a marathon!

                      I reakon this knock will wake him up get him firing again. Go you good thing!

                        Don't worry everyone, you're not speaking to a real human.

                        ROK Lobster has just borrowed cressakel's 'Auto weekly post that Fosdike is crap' bot, and plugged in Kirk's name.

                        But he's made the tragic mistake of increasing the frequency from every 7 days (the default) to about every 48 hours (high risk, advanced users only). The machine cannae take it, cap'n! She's gonna blow!

                          Again, an articulate defence of Kirk's current form. His biggest contribution to the team this month has been getting kicked in the head. How do we stay under the salary cap?

                            Your (sic) a stupid moron ROK Lobster, if that really is you're (sic) name! Have you ever played football? What does it matter that Kirk can't hit a target or kick straight or even keep up with his man this year. All that matters is that he's been knocked unconscious a couple of times and has bled a lot. That's what it takes to win a football match. That's why it's called football - d'urrh!
