    So - just how DO you do it Ugg? X Files references seem to be apt.
    Some poor office boy will be getting his ass whipped as we speak.

    Just out of curiosity, does anyone know how long an injury has to be for it to be considered 'long term'?

    Julian Assange is a Footscray supporter?

    Given the leak about debutants. My predictions:

    OUT: Rampe (injured), Robinson (injured), Towers ( omitted)

    IN: Newman, Fox, Hayward

    We know of these 3 inclusions, but it doesn't preclude other changes as well. We will look a bit undersized in defence if Tom Campbell comes in to play ruck for WB and Tom Boyd goes forward. It means someone like Laidler will have to pick him up. On the other hand, the Bulldogs scoring power has been with their smaller players.

    8 weeks. Has to be medically certified and approved by the AFL.

    True the only speculation on my part was the third out being towers right ?

    Happy with the 3 debuts but disappointed that Aliir isn't also in the side. Has to be injured or else it's a bad error on behalf of the match committee!

    Don't understand why Aliir is named as an emergengy.

    Very short defence. Rampe's not that tall but he's experienced and he's learned to play tall. I find it odd that neither Aliir nor Melican is in the team. Melican's omission can't be because they don't want to play too many debutants, given three have been selected. I'm sure Newman has earned his debut but would have preferred Melican this week. We have to hope nothing happens to Reg during the game. Or maybe Horse is planning to play Buddy at CHB.

    I don't understand why they elevated Edwards last week to be an emergency and they have now elevated Fox to actually play and Edwards is nowhere unless he is injured. Not showing too much consistency in selection. Good luck to the three debutants and hopefully a few senior players have had a decent kick up the backside on last weeks woeful performance.

    Wow
    was so wrong !!
    Massive changes
    Maybe integral to blood one step backwards for two steps forward Rd 3 onwards ???

    Or best chance to win Rd 2 ?????

    Either way.......a little exciting
