The emergencies named confuse me.
Longmire wants to give Parker another full game in the VFL to get more conditioning. He has demoted Campbell to ensure he gets a full game. So if the weather is awful on Saturday afternoon and they decide to swap a tall for a small, who comes in? Clearly not Ladhams.
The positive is that the VFL game follows the AFL game this week, so there will be no need to pull someone from the VFL game at half-time to hold them over as senior emergency.
When was the other time Mills was injured during Mad Monday? The other significant Mills injury that I recall was when he injured himself (ankle?), throwing a gridiron ball after training and tripped on a drain.Originally Posted by Auntie.Gerald
Was Florent the one that played on Toby the last time we played GWS at the SCG, and he allowed Toby to kick the winning goal due to his poor positioning at the stoppage? He is a much better player this year so I hope he has learned his lesson.
It was BJ that was supposed to cover him at the throw in.
I seem to recall it was Dylan Stephens who got flack about uncovered Toby.
Notwithstanding the excellence of your recall of events that until now I was earnestly trying to forget but my point remains that I believe we can exploit Green’s weakness as a defender by using Florent whenever there is an opportunity to run away from defence.
They will be expecting and preparing for Blakey and will probably try to use a defensive midfielder in that role, so I’m suggesting we opt for something else to break open their backline dominance. Green does not chase preferring to get out the back, my point is we can expose his laziness by giving the pill to Ollie and telling to go.

Given the wet week and expected drizzle would love to see a late change with Amartey out and Parker in
Has to be, cant let Amartey show up with fools gold every 3 weeks and hold his spot.
We played Hawks last week, he should have beat up on them, he basically had the same output as me and I was in WA.
I watched a few times, high ball into the fwd line and he doesnt jump at it, even when he has a run, he just tries to find a body. Need to forget the opposition, if you have a run jump at it.
Talk about every opportunity in the world.
Also need to get Cambpell and Sheldrick into this side.
Love this. They had a parents day today, including McInerney’s dad. Not hard to see where young Justin gets his confidence and effervescence.

'Delicious' is a fun word to say
Bloody funny......he walks the same as Juzzy too.
I completely agree about Campbell and Sheldrick. They're the future. I'm dismayed that Campbell is dropped this week.
I also agree re Amartey. He has immense talent but whether he can graduate from Fool's Gold into the real thing is a great question. He certainly has the capability but I think for him it's a mindset thing. He needs to really really really believe in himself .... and if he does that he'll tear it apart. Adam Goodes was similarly erratic in his early years and played some absolutely putrid stinkers - but once he believed in himself the rest is history. I think Amartey has a similar switch just waiting. Whether it ever gets flicked, as it did with Goodsey, is the great unknown.
My opinion is objective truth in its purest form
let's show em smug with a big L on their face
