Changes for the Grand Final.

Has anyone seen an incident between Buddy and Motlop? I only saw one where there was an open hand to the face but apparently there was a high bump or forearm?? He better not get suspended!!

High fend off was an forearm push to Motlop's chest and didn't do any damage. If Buddy gets suspended for either, then I will take a giant step towards believing conspiracy theories about the Tribunal.

We've got this. The Dogs were stuffed tonight by the end. That, plus the nerves and injuries plus a week of hype in Melbourne means I reckon we're going to win - pro-Dogs umpiring aside.

I have heard that before previously something like 201..., ends in 4, and how did the finish. ????

We need to keep our umpire crew. Schmitts crew gave it 23-13 to the dogs, away from home.??

Yep, would really prefer not to get 'rhymes with'. And apparently Nicholls is a Dogs supporter.

Darcy(?) reported during the game last night that McVeigh had told him he would definitely be ready to go. I can't see the selectors spurning our blessed captain. But he wasn't really missed and someone like Jones showed how you can really play across halfback. Experience though would be handy where Marsh and Hewitt might be exposed. It depends on who pulls up close to fully fit.

Perhaps a little ironic that Father Son Josh Dunkley was reluctant to join Sydney because of the mid-field depth we have, one of whom is a Father Son who might be leaving us, & that they'll play off on the big stage

I didn't feel like that in 2014 at all. Others may have.

Thats false. Dunkley said he would have been happy to be selected by the swans

[Bill Posters]

I didn't watch the gws game but saw that the free kick count was 23-13 in favour of the dogs. Was this a fair reflection of the way the game was played? Or do we have the same to look forward to in the gf? Ie. Massive dog favouritism.

Welcome back. Been relatively quiet without you for the last couple of days.
I didn't say Dunks Jr didn't want to come. I more meant that his preference seemed to be to stay in Melbourne (closer to family) & that senior midfield opportunities were less likely at Sydney

But, thats not what he said.

Id expect the same next week. The AFL's integrity unit is on holidays.

No, Josh is a well spoken young man who would have ended up at Sydney if the Bulldogs had not bid on him.
I couldn't really see him saying "Well, the Swans have nominated me as a father / son selection, I'm accepting the nomination (pending being outbid of course) but I sure as heck don't want to end up there!"

[Buzz80]

So lets assume for a moment Aliir, Mills and McVeigh are all 100% right to play - whats everyones thoughts about selection? My guess is horse would want all 3 in the team...which leaves 2 to go out. I cant see us dropping Jones after last night...my guess would be Marsh...who would be the other...Laidler played well as intercept mark and a bit of grunt...but Mills would also play intercept mark so i think Laidler would be the other one to drop out.

[ernie koala]

What ever transpires with McVeigh and Mills fitness...Jones should , and I think will, be in the 22 next Saturday.

Taking both Mills and McVeigh into a GF would be too risky for mine ....Regardless, 2 Small halfbacks, plus Smith, Marsh and Rampe, is enough.

So the only change I want to see is..

OUT : Aliir Aliir

IN : Mills

No, irony is the use of words to express something different from (and often the opposite of) their literal meaning. "Father Son Josh Dunkley [being] reluctant to join Sydney because of the mid-field depth we have, one of whom is a Father Son who might be leaving us, & that they'll play off on the big stage" is an example of dissonant coincidence.

Just sayin'.
