    IMO start Grundy back and Leo wing / forward

    OK

    Leo is a marked man for this week - Cry boy Roos have already seeded the umpires thoughts. He will be penalised to the max. I would start him wing / HFF for a quarter and see how he goes. (defensive winger) Grundy in the back line taking which ever player Leo would have taken.

    Move him back if / as required

    Goodes will be back in the side and Grundy won't be needed on the Half forward line...

    Part of the mix and match game plan

    I don't think Grundy will make the cut. We need two outs and I think he and Crouch might be the ones, considering Roos said that they had succeeded in getting Noggy back into form.
    Those who have the greatest power to hurt us are those we love.

    Rod you're either a crazy genius or just plain crazy.

    Wouldn't you love an old fashioned switcheroo with 20 minutes left and Leo darting around the goal square popping through cheeky ones for a last gasp famous victory.

    All fantasy.

    I have a horrible feeling that he'll drop Veszpremi..

    I think Laidley's salvo might backfire badly. The umps aren't stupid and won't have enjoyed the way he's handled it. He would have gained more by keeping their approach quiet IMO.

    The hood, probably option 2. Just to confirm the fact that I am crazy, I must admit that I had assumed that Leo would be playing this week. Given his frees against last week, he may be on the chopping block.... Nah


    But the in's and out's this week will be interesting...

    I found it hard to make room for MOL, ROK and A. Goode player.

    IMO, Looking to the future I would not select Noggy, BBBH (if he can't pull his head in) and one other not sure on the match ups (Maybe a second ruckman is not needed?)

    confirmed = crazy

    He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

    Maybe what Roos is really meaning in his statements so far is:
    1. "Noggy has finally found form."
    2. Roos then says "he doesnt pay attention to form from one game"
    3. He drops Noggy (not Vespremi) even though he has found form because his overall season hasnt been good.
    4. He hopefully becomes useful trade bait.

    LOL.

    Grundy doesn't even get TO the contest he is that bad defensively. At least he won't give away any free kicks

    You want to take the most important part of our structure out of the backline, and replace it with a leaking siv?

    Pffft.
    "As a player he simply should not have been able to do the things he did. Leo was a 185cm, 88kg full-back and played on some of the biggest, fastest and best full-forwards of all time, and constantly beat them." Roos.
    Leo Barry? you star! We'll miss ya, ''Leapin''.
