          And will you be rucking?
          29... like my age.
          No, unfortunately, I'm shorter than Benny McGlynn. No rucking for me.
          Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
          Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

              Surely we have another Jones on our list???

              I obviously wasn't paying much attention in the last quarter.

                You're excused.
                He was barely seen in the last qtr, as were a few other players

                  Hard to be seen if your on the bench..


                  PS we must be playing Collingwood this weekend as Eddie is in the news about something about his career being ruined. (As if he had one we care about..) BTW If Tony Lockett had have speared him properly with his Crutch at this time, ( Plugger Spears Eddie With Crutch - YouTube ) he would not have ever been on TV again. How good would that have been. :-)

                    The value of hindsight, eh?

                        Buddy has been ruled out ????. Does anyone know what exactly is wrong with his back? I hope it's not disc related.

                            Bummer abut Buddy.

                            On the basis of Tom Harley's interview:

                              Fs I think you forget that Goodes, very much proven when Nanka was subbed last week, is not KPP. He did very little in the marking contests because he is not a contested pack mark. We can't depend on Nanka as a forward option either. If Pykie is not ready I would bring in Naismith.

                              I agree about the captains by the way. They don't stand up and be counted. Kizza has been ordinary all season, has had a few good ones but more real shockers. Macca has been by far the better player but he doesn't stand up when he is needed and lead by example. Neither player seem to be able to infuse enthusiasm into their team-mates. I would go with one captain next year, Luke Parker with Smithy as his vice and if there is any dissension, get rid of the problems, trade them.
                              i
                              As to dropping Reid, I don't think last week was his fault entirely. The delivery, not just in the second half, was dreadful. I would leave him in the forward line and allow him to develop. We haven't done that with him as he has been all over the shop. I think we have to make the decision as to where we want him to play. He is a KPP and he needs to either be a KB or KF.

                              My changes are a little more tame as I think at the moment with so many experienced players out we don't have much choice. But I do think Kizza needs to get a bit of a cattle prod.

                              Ins; Pyke, Robinson, Rooster.

                              Out; BJ, Kizza, Nanka,

                              By the looks of training footage Benny was doing laps. That is never good. Rooster & Pykie both trained. Due to Buddy being out I don't think we have a choice but to play Rooster.
