Changes for the Thugs

Going to rock up, watch Poppy duck his head to slot his 5th to put them 12 goals up midway through the 2nd then exit the stadium.

No changes for mine

Felt like I was reading a @Stallion BRING HIM IN style rant with this capslock

In: Barnard, Robram
Out: Salmon, Young,

They’ve been incredibly vague re the injury to Grima. Hurt his hip apparently but that’s about all we know - would be handy if he was available this week.

A shame that there was no VFL this weekend - I wonder if Francis will get his chance in a baptism of fire against the Hawks. Alternatively, I’d look to bring in Jamar or McKernan in to play forward and swing Brown back into defence, just for this week.

Kelly comes in for Crowley, I think Tippa will cop a week (and would’ve been rested anyway), plus maybe one more change to whoever doesn’t get up in time with the short turnaround coming back from WA.

Early days to be guessing changes but I’d go with something along the lines of:

Out: Crowley (inj), Tippa (susp.) & Langford (rested)
In: Kelly, Stokes & Jamar

B: Baguley Brown Gwilt
HB: Dempsey Ambrose Dea
C: Zerrett Kelly Cooney
HF: Goddard Daniher Parish
F: Stokes Jamar Fantasia
R: Luenberger Bird Zaharakis

Int: Gleeson, Edwards, Jerrett & Hams

I forgot about Stokes. His class would be handy.

No thanks. The guy has been really dissapointing for us.let him play in the vfl for a few weeks until he finds the required motivation to play.

Crowley has to be out. The guy is just non competitive at the moment.

I just want guys in the team who will bring effort. Too many of our guys are just happy to rock up and coast through games

What? He (Stokes) actually played well pre-injury. I think he’d need a vfl run first but he wasnt ‘disapointing’ earlier.

Not to mention Crowley did a hammy and is out anyway.
Makes you wonder who watches a game before commenting.

I watched the game.

Crowley shouldn’t play again for us.

Stokes has been very disappointing. For a guy with as much experience as he has, regularly goes to ground, doesn’t do the 1%s, doesn’t put in off the ball. As of right now, Just doesn’t deserve a game in our side. If he goes back to the vfl and puts in 3 really good game and puts in the required effort then by all means, pick him.If he plays like he did earlier in the year- he is just taking up a a spot in the team.


Stokes has been fine, very serviceable. Not sure why you think all that.
In: Kelly, Laverde and Francis

Out: Crowley, Tippa and someone else

seriously? of no games?

ubfortuntley while Hartley is out I think brown has to go back, and I would bring both jamar and smack in ! joey plays lead up chf, smack plays deep with jamar.
assuming tippa gets 1 week(which is automatic cause he is wearing an Essendon jumper) I would go with this

bags, brown,dea
Kelly,ambrose,dempsey
Edwards,zaka,fanta
cooney,joe,jerrett
jamar,smack,parish
lueny,bj,zerrett
Gleeson,langford,hams,bird

in.jamar,smack,kelly
out.crowley,tippa,gwilt

Bring in Kommer.

Err … Why?

He’s annoying. He gives away frees but also likely to ■■■■ Hawthorn off. I want to see the Hawks snap. Keep on prodding them until Clarko punches a wall or something.

How’s Grima tracking?

Lav straight in IMO. Pump games into this boy.
