Papley �rested� not dropped. Longmire made a point of saying Papley was a bit sore and would benefit from a rest. While McCartin would benefit from a run in NEAFL.Originally Posted by ugg
The rise of Ronke and Hayward means we can rest Papley I guess. Rohan an interesting one too. Dropped, doesn't play ressies and is now back in. Maybe he was rested too.
Today's a draft of your epitaph
I think that's likely (re Rohan). He took a knock early in the Freo game and looked pretty sore for the rest of the match.
That does seem to be the implication doesn�t it.
Poor Aliir he's never gonna get break till Grundy throws in the towel
Suprised to see Stoddart get another run. I'd imagine it'd only be for this week.
Good to see Newman back, I was surprised he got dropped weeks ago but he's dominated at NEAFL level.
Stoddart lucky to hold his place, being given another game against what should be lesser opposition. Think O'Riordan has to be given a run next, has been better than Stoddart in the NEAFL.
Rohan will provide more than McCartin at FF, be more of a handful for Carlton defenders. Now we have so much depth, I'm happy for sore players like Rohan & Papley to be rested, it's important they are there when finals come around, if we make it.
If you scan through the Carlton line up, it's full of very ordinary footballers, we should put a space on them, chance for critical % here.
It seems to be policy to give young players a couple of games. Ronke came in and is now a fixture. I thought Stoddart showed a bit last week in trying conditions. He has good skills and gets to the right places. His goal was as cool as a cucumber. Newman gets a lot of possessions but wastes some with "cute" little kicks to nothing. When he came into the side he kicked long and accurate. If he gets back to that he becomes a big inclusion. Sounds like he has worked really hard to win back his spot.
Good to see that we trained under lights last night. We have been asking for that for awhile so that they can train in dewy conditions.
Loved everyone wearing the indigenous guernsey during training. Although I think it will look better with the red shorts.
Trying not to speculate without facts, but he lost a child a few weeks back and has a new baby. May have just needed to take a breath.
The eternal connundrum "what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object" was finally solved when David Hasselhoff punched himself in the face.
I agree Ernie that Marsh was vilified by some people both on here and BF. I thought he was a little more than solid. He played his role very well, especially as in the reserves he was playing mids.
Pink hasn't been playing and he is a development player. He comes back either this week or next
