The Team - ESSENDON v BRISBANE LIONS MCG , 2:10pm AEST Saturday, April 13, 2019 -- whinge about the team here

So put the All Australian defender Hooker forward and “carry” Francis in his place? I’m disappointed about Francis being out but he looked rough last week. If Francis was 100% fit i’d definitely agree with you.

It shows the differing levels of respect he has for the players.

That one has always irked me too!

Even if Francis ends up playing VFL in a couple of weeks, I wouldn’t mind him up and flying in the VFL before coming into the senior team against the pies.

I think there is something to be said for looking after his body and confidence at this stage of his career.

Would be quite happy to have him as an ~ 18 game player this season, especially if he had quality games in both the AFL and VFL and some rests.

Sure. Play the 2014 All Australian defender & 2017 40 goal scorer in the forward line…when Daniher and Smack are unavailable. Absolutely you do.

Yep. You can just picture Woosha sitting there, pen in hand wondering what word he should write in brackets after a players name that will best express his level of respect for them. Absolute ■■■■■■■.

Last weekend my mate got selfies with both Guelfi and Francis out and about pretty late at the Albion. Guelfi was cooked! #pingaz

I think you should pay attention

Myers is purely an ‘auto in’ because he was taken as a Pick 6. If he was a Pick 36 he would not be an an ‘auto in’ and if he was Pick 66 he would’ve been delisted in 2015. Honestly I look at the Brisbane side, and ask myself “what does he offer against this side”. He might snare one goal, a couple of centre clearances and six turnovers, but he is slow in mind and body. Simply don’t get it.

Meanwhile the Lang sits in the stands as the VFL have a bye.
This side suddenly looks slow and predictable, despite what we saw last week. Not confident at all - no wonder the Lions have gone from $3.30 to $2.05 in the space of the last two days.

If Franga is 100% fit then i agree with you. Do you think he is?

medium defender david myers?

I agree with you. He’s an evil ■■■■■■■ that deliberately disrespects his players by writing different words next to their names :smiling_imp:

I think he looked sore for sure but he has been named omitted and named an emergency.

Yeah that’s weird. He didn’t look like he made it though last match very well. Brisbane are a faster side too. Maybe they don’t think he’s up to it? I think we’ll see Hooker forward at some stage anyway.

Why not simplify it and just say ommitted or injured?

Nah, that would be too dificult.

Gaslighter?

Is that when you light up your own farts?

He’s a monster!

Would have preferred Sam Draper (VFL- 22 disposals, five tackles, 39 hitouts, two goals) and Dylan Clarke (VFL- 30 disposals and five tackles)

Myers is at his best when he goes in hard, wins ball and kicks long. Tippa and Zaka turned around their form; time for Myers to do the same
