Agree with this. Love the club but a flaw we have is playing injured players. Maybe they've learnt their lesson with Buddy but clearly Hanneberry was not fit last year and Jack has often played injured. No need for heroics- just wait till a player is match fit. Also, Mills and McVeigh should not have played in 2016 GF. Irrational.
Really ?? I thought melican played his best game for the year against the dons. Looked much closer to the 2017 version than he has in previous games. If he starts hitting his straps we’llbut a much better side for it. Would rather drop Reid to be honest

I thought Menzel might sneak in too, but Horse said yesterday he needs more time in the NEAFL. Fox did a really good defensive job on Saad when we played the Bombers, so I think he stays.
Going to be an interesting selection as there are 3 players with possible injuries (Reid, KJ, Heeney), Buddy a question mark, not that many knocking down the door. And you'd think this would be a game we give ourselves a good chance to win.
I'm torn about KJ as he did seem to play better before his (non-concussion-causing) head knock.
IN: anyone but Clarke
OUT: one injured player
Or if they play Clarke let him get his own inside ball and stay on the ground for 90%
NEAFL is a fairway back but 47 and 40 are going to get hard to ignore
Good match up for Cunnington
Leave Jack out, we dont need him to play more than 15 games

Has there been any news about Reid? I haven't seen anything about his injury. Hopefully this is good news.
Horse also made mention of him and Aliir as the future of our backline in his post-game press conference. Melican will make mistakes but if he is our future then he needs to play against the likes of Ben Brown now to continue his development.
Personally, I'd like to see Rowbottom back in the team in place of Jack especially if Buddy returns and replaces Jack's forward half experience. Fox is probably the unlucky one out for Buddy.
In: Buddy, Rowbottom
Out: Jack, Fox
Ben Brown, forgot he plays for LOLNorf. So we have to watch two hours of him flopping around milking frees because the umps hate Rampe, then we have to watch his 100 metre galloping giraffe run up for goal - spare me!
Only changes will be injury forced, reckon they give Buddy another week and avoid the flights. As much as we don't want it, Clarke has numbers far above anyone else the last two weeks.
Reid "expected to line up" to get up for North. Franklin not.
