Always take the heart medication to the footy. Will be in bay N11 with Teddy Jnr and the missus. You always know where we are sitting when playing when the bummers as they are Teddy Jnr's favourite hate team. Can't shut him up. Took on the bummer cheer squad by himself once !!!

:grin: :grin:

Our next 3 games can be 1 point wins, but I want to absolutely smash the Scum. 80 points up at 3/4 time.

I see Waite, Hampson, White and Watson all named in the Ants team for Sunday, once again I like the fact we are not rushing in underdone players...



Does that mean we're confident of getting over this mob....with an all out assault on WC next week?

Yep. It's contemptuous, I like it.

They've got to bring Ellard back because we were monstered in the hard stuff? We won the contested possessions, had a small loss in the clearances. We had more possessions and a heap of marks.

That tells you we played too safe with the football and saw little for it. Ellard isn't going to bring the ball to ground in a pack, he's just going to nip around and annoy the odd clearance player. With Lucas back and in form, Carrazzo in the team to support Judd & Mitch, I don't see how he's of use. If Curnow was in form his combination of pace and strength over the ball would be welcome but Ellard is lacking his normal zip.

Particularly against Essendon*, I just don't see the point of punishing Lucas or Armfield to bring back Ellard. He'll be an emergency.


:eek: really?

Massive game for Robbie Warnock, he can really announce himself with a BOG effort on Sunday.

i thought the deal with Hampson not playing last week was because he hadnt played enough games duringthe year for the Ants so he wasnt allowed to play in a final.

How can Hampson & Waite be allowed to play then?

Nup, Hammer rolled an ankle last week.
Number of games is irrelevant when the seniors are playing on the same weekend.

Rest Judd, or ease him in as the sub?

Really like the fact MC have not been tempted to rush back underdone players.

Jamison is a risk worth taking and I would not be surprised to see him play fwd.

Weather mY determine who gets the final spot from Ellard and Lucas. Heavy track go with Ellard, fast track and it's Lucas.

If anyone has any concerns about Bowers inclusion, just watch the Bullants game on Iview.

Absolutely smashed his opponent. He might make the odd boob when he's galloping, but he reads the ball off the boot better than anyone on our list.

Monga has just predicted a Bummers win, too good at both ends of the ground the brave ones are...

...made the same prediction before our last meeting.
