Changes for JLT round 5 (Melbourne) - it’s here, go nuts

At half time today I tried to make a change but Virgin refused to refund my airfare for next Friday Canberra to Melbourne
Twice a year a bunch of mates come down to Melbourne for a boys footy trip away. Has been a tradition since 2000 when we all came down for my bucks weekend vs Collingwood @ the G
Half of them are Swans members / 3 of us Bombers and a couple neutrals
We work out when Swans & Bombers are playing same weekend (but not vs each other) and book flights + accommodation
Last November I was looking forward to it but now don’t really want to go
I’m reduced to giving a ■■■■ about who wins Swans v Scum Saturday @ Docklands

Thanks for fkn nothing Essendon :rage::rage:

Same as last week, we don’t need a lot of changes as long as they’re the right ones.
Out: Heppell, Zaharakis, Bellchambers.

I think we should back our senior players to respond.

Out: Worsfold, Harvey, Skipworth, Corrigan
In: Manangatang under 19’s coaching panel would probably be better equipped

I’m not sure how big you think Manangatang is…

Edit: Looks like Michael Roberts is your man.

Well in that case I’ll settle for Johnno and Robbo who prop up the bar in the local pub most nights. They’d surely have more of an idea than our current charlatans…

I would bring in Hartley just as a punter.

Outs; Zaka, Tippa, TBC, Raz, Merrett.
Ins: Ridley, Lav, Draper, + 2 (Gleeson?)

Five changes would be huge, but something needs to be done. Woosha needs to make some sort of statement, but l doubt that he is capable of doing so.

Ess v melb, battle of the most fragile over rated clubs cup next week.

Not surprising with all the essington founding members at the club, including goodwin

At least we’re ahead of them on the ladder :rofl:

I said it last week but they’re playing guelfi out of position and destroying him. Classic Essington player development.

Judging from the press conference he’d be keen to back the players, which is a flawed plan. I hope for at least 3 changes. At least make it look like the kids will get a chance this year.

Where do you think they should be playing him?

High half forward wing or in bags’s spot. He needs to be free to attack the ball and the man without worrying about his opponent and positioning.
