And replace him with who exactly...have you seen our injury list?
Also he loves the contested footy, weather football will not worry him, he crash packs, cause contests and give opportunities to crumbing forwards.
Idiotic to suggest dropping him at all, even more so when you take into account our injury list, even more so when you consider the way he plays the game.
Sure if he was simply a lead up forward, who relies on taking marks in his hands out the front of his body, and is not good below his legs, drop him if you can for a wet weather footy game. But he is a very different type of forward, who wet weather would not really affect all that much in my opinion.
Spot on Ealsey....anyone see his work at ground level last week...3 great little cameo's come to mind...Lloyd's last quarter goal via him via Lucas was a gem.
It's look like Atkinson and sadly Dyson will come in. Just hope Dyson realises how lucky he is.
Neagle's endurance has imporved out of sight alreadyt his year, cannot wait to see him after he gets a decent preseason behind him. He's obviously working very hard.

Anyway, i'm sick of losing to these mediocre trolls. Our first half against them earlier this year was close to the worst half of football i've ever seen us play, but we matched them after half time. Richo is under an injury cloud (hamstring, possibly knee tendonitis as well) and it appears Deledio is now too. Time to make it 5 in a row.
EDIT: False alarm on Deledio. Had his knee strapped and came back on playing at full tilt.
That's very Steve Quarterbrain of you Jimmy...

Match-ups?
I'd go with Slattery on Brown, Ryder on Reiwoldt, Welsh on Foley. Who should get Deledio? I think he's been playing forward lately, maybe NLM, who is pretty quick and would beat him for height.

Hard to argue with most of those, also assuming Fletch on Morton? Who does Nash get?

Just logged in to see what was going on and saw Michael in the side.... wondered who was out and now I see it's Fletcher!
To top it off at Half Time we're 4 goals down. Morton with 4 and Deledio with 3. Anyone playing on these boys?

Down by 24 at HT. Very unaccountable footy. Team looking a bit lost. Upside I guess is that we're only 4 goals down & couldn't play much worse. Tiges moving it too easy into their forwardline.

Going long early in the third... Neagle contests at FF, Jetta crumbs and snaps the goal. 3 goals down. Good work from NLM in defence to set that play up.
