JM report over at BB says that NLM did not train. No doubt it is a smokescreen for a replacement.

However, will the replacement be Gumbleton?

Not listed as an emergency and probably done so the media doesnt beat it up?

I doubt it, but you never know. I hope its Dyson who comes in, extra speed.

With Lloyd and Lucas as well as the resting ruckman up forward, there is no need for Johns this week. Get him to practice his set shots playing for Bendigo the next few weeks.

What other options??

I like Dyson and his form by the sounds of it warrants a call up but if not who else??

Cole - How is his form
Campo - Could do what Welsh does and take a defender out as he can be damaging if not tagged.
Bradley - Same as Campo but not as damaging by foot.
Johns - Would we be too top heavy? or can we really stretch Carlton.
Others????????

I doubt Gumby will come in.

Gumby does come in, lucas has a spell on the bench and we unleash gumby against the twit whit. Whitnall gets carved up 2 weeks in a row against a first gamer.. Gumby walks of the ground with 4 goals on debut...

**slap slap**


oh um dyson hopefully, deserves it

Sounds highly unlikely, since Gumby is not named as an emergency the club would have to pay a fine. I know Sheeds likes mind game but this sounds too farfetched.

Johns, Bradley and Dyson (our emergencies for Saturday) have all been named as part of a 7-man bench for Bendigo as well.

Is it normal practice for us to name all our AFL emergencies as interchange players for Bendigo as well, or do we normally name the AFL emergencies as part of the starting 18 for Bendigo?

Yes, but the Bendigo game is Sunday.
You will know which Bendigo named player plays AFL tomorrow.

Its common practice. Wouldnt look to much into that.

Dyson will come in for NLM you'd think, but Lucas will play.

Dyson should be brought in.

Forecast for Saturday
Partly cloudy with a shower or two developing later and the chance of a
thunderstorm. Moderate northerly winds.

Precis: Shower or two.
City: Min 13 Max 28

Only a chance of rain it seems. Dyson in.

Bloody hell! Round 1 we played in 27 degrees. Round 2 it was 26 degrees. Today they expact 28! We seemed to have soped extremely well in the last two weeks with those conditions, but perhaps it will start taking it's toll on players.....

Yeah, expecting rain. We have been expecting rain since March 06 and havent got any.

Listening to the weather forecast is as accurate as Essendons injury report.

Let's hope for no rain for our sake.

Maybe it can rain after the match has finished!
