Yes. They're wonderful and we should all be thankful we have them here to enrich our lives and teach us how to live a better life.

Duigan to go out, he looked lost at times last night and we can't afford any player to be off next week.

What's the word on Henderson, does he look like he'll be coming back in?

Also I remember reading a while back that Kreuzer was due to come back in round 3. Any change to this?

I'd like to see Juddy move to the back half in a sweeper type role as our general. Jamo's got enough on his plate with the oppositions best forward and JR's not playing with the same confidence as last year at the moment.

Bring in Ellard and Armfield to add to the midfield grunt and give Eddie more time in the midfield as well.

Soooo predictable!

I am completely sure we will smash them.

ComPLETEly,

This is really going to wind you up Don, but I actually think I hate the Bombers more than you do.

This is no place for joking around.
It's supposed to be a serious forum.

Unable to offer a decent rebuttal ?

Agree that Betts needs some time in the middle. Offered close to bugger-all up forward last night, however, horses for courses, he usually has a night out against Essendon* and could trouble their defenders.

I like Armfield's endeavor and what he brings with him onto the field in the way of heart, but his kicking needs to improve. Essendon* are a high-pressure team with their pace, so that raises concerns over Army's disposal of the ball.

BTW, a warning to everyone. Monfries was probably watching that free Blair got on JR...probably more than once too.

Big day for Henderson, Bower and Lucas today.

T-Bird and Collins spots up for grabs I think. Betts will get another week.

Might have been the other way around; Blair was probably studying Monfries for the last couple of years.

If Monfries is 'sore' which is why he missed last week (and maybe this week?) then next week I want to see our boys give him absolute pain on the field. Within the rules of course, however I wouldn't care too much if one of our boys got suspended giving him a hard time if it means we win the game.

Surely Henderson will come in, he will have had 3 games in the Bullants by next week. MC might give Bower another go in the Bullants next week though.

Duigan to be omitted (Bower/Davies?), Collins will get another go I think.

Hille and Monfries are both not playing for the Bummers this week and I would expect them to return against us.

reckon hendo, bower...maybe ellard??as well.

I've been invited around a Scums supporters house for a BBQ and to watch the game on his big 60" Plasma.

About 20 of us going with the ratio 13/7 scum supporters way.


Is it safe for me to go ??????

Y-E-S!!!!

We will smash them with the intent we showed last night.

How about:
Judd is far too valuable to restrict to one half of the ground.
Judd won two Brownlows in the midfield because successive coaches have recognized that is where his best value is. (But you may know more about footy than either of them so perhaps this point is invalid)
Judd is one of the best inside 50 passers in the game.
Had Judd been playing HB last night we would have missed about half a dozen midfield and forward half clearances plus several goal assists.
If Judd feels he needs to spend a bit of time at HB he has licence to just go there anyway.

How's that for starters?
