Could be the first Essendon player to get reported in his first game since Tyson Slattery.

In that case, hold him over till ANZAC day, and then unleash

That’s pretty what I’d expect.
When it happens, we won’t be waiting until 6;20pm on selection night.
We’ll know well before that.
Just like they did with Alwyn Davey Jnr.

I thought he’d be selected for the GWS game.
If not this weekend, then maybe the game against Geelong after a short break from Anzac Day.

Is this the first time he’s been named an emergency?

Saw (somewhere) that Voss was the first named emergency, when not in number order. May not have meant anything but have got a feeling, including the cheering at training, it will be him in as sub. Otherwise Hobbs’ return I guess, hopefully either of those 2 though.

As Per AFL Team lineup

As Per EFC site

yeah can’t remember where I saw it, but they weren’t in numerical order like those 2

AFL app, not sure if it means anything but

Geez some of you blokes need to get a grip.
You do realise the AFL app changes all the time?
If he plays, great.
If he doesn’t, oh well, next week!

Lol don’t need to get a grip was merely saying I’ve got a feeling. Ftr it doesn’t change for me, carry on.

Makes sense. Spoke briefly to the dad of a VFL player my son had played junior footy with, after we watched him play (not Essendon). He said the coaches had a lot of base ‘role’ things they wanted to see, and getting the ball was the Cherry on top - but they wouldn’t actually care that much about it if those other things they were looking for weren’t in place. They might not be so obvious to a casual observer.

We had a late change recently, didn’t we? Is it me or have we rarely had late changes in recent years? I don’t mind the idea of a bit of eleventh hour shenanigans.

Sheedy was the king of a late change or three
