        IMO we need a better balance of forwards to defenders. (ie At least 1 less defender and 1 more forward.)
        OUT - Kennelly ....Just nine touches in another ordinary display, sadly he's become a passenger.
        IN - TDL .....We need more forward options
        Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it's time to pause and reflect... MT

          There is no way that game will sell out! It's a Sydney game in Melbourne. I should know...I've been to so many in my 35 years. Relax.

            Regarding changes, it would be good to see Lamb get a run before the end of the season. Senior selection will depend on if he's ready to play reserves this week and how he plays. Doubt that they'd make any changes unless necessary, but Lamb, Rohan, TDL, Johnston would hopefully get a run before finals (if we make it).

              Apparently they don't sell GA tickets until the reserved seats are gone. To quote my friend who's a bombers fan in Melb (with whome I'll be seeing the game):

              "The way it works is you can only pre-buy reserved seats, unless they all sell out, then they release GA tickets on the interwebs... So if you can't buy GA tix on the interwebs, that's actually a good sign there'll be seats available, not the opposite..."

                I think lamb would be a gambol

                  After the Pies dust them by a century this weekend, there's a chance we may outnumber them, let alone a sellout...

                    Ok. Page 19 in the March magazine.

                    "The Rnd. 20 match v Essendon will be a fully ticketed match. Members wanting to attend this match will have to register their barcode with ticketmaster prior to the game to guarantee entry and a reserved seat. A small booking fee applies".

                    So if you don't think it will sell out I suppose it shouldn't be a problem.

                      I cant tell you how much I hope rohan is available for that game even if i think he wouldn't get picked. it would be amazing to get his pace and tackling back against the bombers who remain a quick side

                        I seem to remember in a thread about the magoos that when Rohan returned last time he looked a bit heavier and slower. I hope his time off this time around hasnt been spent at KFC.

                          Yep. I'm really looking forward to the time he becomes a regular in the best 22.

                            Last time we played Bombers at docklands was Rnd 1 2006. There were 45k+ in a 53k+ Stadium. Not sold out i'll admit but getting close.

                              So that would be Round 1 when hopes are high against the reigning Premiers and they still didn't sell out.

                              Not a snowflakes chance in hell of selling this match out then.

                                Gotta wonder why it is a fully ticketed game then ?
