The Teams GWS vs Essendon

I think the inclusion of Zaka is more about the fact that it was an open ‘secret’ that he wasn’t affected. Winderlich and Fletcher in the same boat but due to age won’t play NAB.

This week is probably our 90% Round 1 team IF players suspended. Good chance for them to see how we gel. I wouldn’t be surprised (if tribunal doesn’t announce result beforehand) if Fletcher and Winders line up next week, along with Chappy to give us a look at the possible ‘bans’ best 22.

The side should be more competitive this week.

What happened to Langford and Long?

Langford is on the list.

This side is much better but i still think GWS run away with it in the 4th after a good tight game for the first 3 quarters.

No Chappy either so BJ for captain?

GWS to start it 50+ game run off success against Essendon this week.

I love how Gwilt has gone from a dud/very average player to Harry Taylor in one pre-season.
No-one said he'll be Harry Taylor.

He’s been training well over the summer and will give us extra flexibility to change around our KPD/KPF. That’s something we’ll looking forward to.

Remember 3 players will be dropped before the game.

I’m guessing Schroder, Tags and Clisby.

Will that also be included in St Kilda’s next “Streak” video?

ironic that sheedy comes back to EFC week of game Essendon play GWS.

a win will depend if our team can gel better than theirs.
GWS looked good last week. and should have more firepower in the midfield.
we have added a few weapons this week. + Cooney Zaka Zerrett & Goddard in midfield lose Chappy

  • Dainher to add a focal point up forward
  • Gwilt to add experience to the defence. Think Freezer and Brown will take the KPP spots with assistance from gwilt.
  • Topp up players have had longer with group and played game together would help.
  • more seasoned players will help run out the last quarter.
  • Giles has a axe to grind versus giants.
    Interesting if EFC kids get vest or topp ups

RIP Tippa

Clearly being hidden so we don’t have to pay a first rounder in November.

BJ would be captain even if Chappy was playing.

Sheeds joins us Monday. Does he formally finish with GWS prior to Friday night?

Press conference tomorrow with Essendon Sheedy said himself on SEN this morning

McKenna stays. How good.

Is Zakka’s inclusion an indication of our vibes re: tribunal?

I was wondering that too. He’s in the leadership group so even symbolic solidarity should be important unless they are very confident of being cleared.

Not to mention there’s an article on the club website which states they hope for Winderlich to play against Melbourne next week.

And one on the AFL website saying Heppell believes he’s ‘on track’ for the Swans game in Round 1.

Should be a better game. Now, if only it was being televised free to air.

Seems strange that in Victoria when there is a world cup on and AFL footy, the only consistent sport being shown on free to air is rugby. AFL missing a trick.

I noted that last week…don’t have foxtel so looking for a sporting fix, I watched NRL on both Friday and Saturday…strangely enough, I enjoyed both games
