Unchanged: I suspect for the first time this season?
I'm delighted. I underestimated the match committee. Great outcome!
Let's make all the players returning to the 22 earn their spots (with the possible exception of Rampe if they think he can come straight back in once he has recovered from his broken arm).
He left out a few other comments:
"We did name them last night without any intention of playing them - and have left them as emergencies despite feeling strongly all along that they need to play in the reserves".
"We thought it might be clever to try and throw North out a bit by naming them, but on reflection that only lasted 24 hours, and they still have 48 hours before the game knowing the final 22 we've now named, so maybe it wasn't as clever as it seemed at the time".
"We could have played with 15 last week and beaten that rabble, so it's hard to judge whether that 22 deserved to go into this week unchanged".
Happy with an unchanged lineup, happy that Lurch has been given a taste of NEAFL footy
Wow
Watching a bit of the WC vs Dogs game
We are a long way behind in flexible game style like these two teams let alone our execution
There are some seriously good players that are ahead of ours
First, just wanted to say I'm even more pleased to know that Newman is the travelling emergency. He is the one that most deserves to be picked if there is a late out.
Blunt and candid comments by Horse, especially this one! I am almost stunned he said it. Teams are generally so careful to respect one another these days that you never hear a comment like this. I guess the game is over and we won't have to play them again this year. Still amazing.

Just watched the video. Can't believe I fell for that! Nice one.

You take two very good players out of any team like Stringer and Murphy and they struggle to get it done.
The Swans will go well v Norf .
The eternal connundrum "what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object" was finally solved when David Hasselhoff punched himself in the face.
