I doubt that mattner or bevan can really play on their talls.

    because of this i think tht sam reid could be a sneaky chance to make a debut after being in really good form recently in the 2's
    The Mummy/Pods interview seemed to suggest that Mummy might play back there a bit this week (and told us that Myke is the strongest in the team).

          Forgive me if my memory is playing tricks on me, but wasn't Green's 5th goal from a free after Meredith got pinged for running around in circles?

            Surely the first time in history a side can be unchanged after losing by 73 points.

            I'm not sure what changes should have been made, but I have to say I'm flabbergasted.

                Yeah, because Bevo didn't give him an option to handball it..... Robbo's case rests, your Honour.

                  I don't know how you can lose by 12 goals and make no changes.

                    We'll try Jack on Ablett would we also try McGlynn if the Jack match up isn't working?

                        PR was really not kidding around when he said they were just going to forget about the D's game.

                        Jesus. Oh well. True to his word then.

                          What about a losing team?

                            Most of the preferred 'ins' are injured. LRT ,Bolton,Bird,Smith and Bradshaw and, I suspect Rohan as well....otherwise it would be change for the sake of it..
