      [QUOTE=neilfws;667687]"Longmire confirms Adam Goodes will play in the NEAFL on the weekend after a discussion re potentially playing sub again."
      /QUOTE]

      Wow that's big news - I thought he would have been named in the 21 this week so there you go - that's a sure signal from the coaching staff that he is to perform this year to warn his place in the team. ROK mkII?

      This will be a big story for a little while....

        I would have thought his fitness want the problem, he had more of a pre season this year than last. And, as a few posters have said, we haven't really had a good chance to check his form. A wet weather game at crap Stadium and half a quarter of dead time aren't really enough to completely judge.
        Maybe Adam has realised he may not be good enough anymore and wants to be seen making the choices not being " dumped " by the coach into the Ressies. He could be doing the team thing by giving up his spot so that someone, eg: Mitchell, can get a run in the seniors.

          I agree. I hope the end of Adams career is handled with the dignity it deserves. I'd hate for it to be mishandled.

            Crowd predictions for the Sydney Derby?

            2nd vs 3rd.

            Unfortunetly, unless you live in the eastern suburbs the venue is near impossible to get to, so 25,000.

              How is it near impossible to get to?

              >get to any train station in sydney
              >get train to central
              >get bus from central
              >you are there

                Last years sell out crowds definitely reflected this.

                    The last time Adam Goodes played reserves football was in 1998.

                    That was before his senior debut.
                    That was before the VFL alignment with Port Melbourne, let alone our reserves team playing at AFL Canberra.

                        Won't be Mitchell. It think it will be McGlynn.

                        Longmire does not play Mitchell, Bird, Kennedy, and Parker in the same team.

                        I hope that Heeney is the sub, but judging by Longmires admission that Goodes turned down the sub role, Heeney was not going to be given the sub role. I think is would be wise to rest up Heeney before Subiaco in the vest

                        If McGlynn is not ready then Brandon Jack will come into the subs vest. I don't mind Brandon as sub. He can come on late in the game and apply forward chasing pressure and nail 3-4 big tackles.

                          Give it up already Barry. We know you are cut about losing the games at ANZ, but a large portion of the fan base isn't.

                          Ill be driving the 3 hours from Canberra for it - should be a cracker

                            ANZ has better parking and that's it. The SCG is superior in every other way. Even if it wasn't it would still be OUR ground home and like 99.9999999% of Swans supporters absolutely love that we are getting back there full time.

                                Actually I think it might be Cunningham who comes in. McGlynn will be better off playing the full NEAFL game than 1 quarter of seniors footy.
