McLean is a massive in..... He is elite, fantastic to have him back..
Likewise with Carrazzo, another a grader...
Glad Ellard kept he's spot, going to be a 10 year player, not quite elite yet....
The team has so much pace....
Garlett is gone, just another quality mick decision not to play him, might have to change he's name to, Ellard or McLean....
Good that we are not playing on a big open ground with plenty of space....

Geez we are shit by having Carazzo, McLean and Ellard in the same side.

Anyway looking forward to seeing Johnson, and Graham hopefully playing a full game.. But I'm sure one of them will be a sub.

Hey Dane, don't have to tank..... Think you get what I mean..
Sitting 13th on the ladder, probably explains why when you see who is getting a game...
Building for the future..

We are going to plod them off the park!

WITH OUR TEAM OF PLODDERS AND CLOGGERS!

I would have had Garlett in just so he could find space and use his pace on that big ground.

Surely Armfield will play and probably Lucas.

Hill, sandy and Ballantine come back in, we get back Carrazzo and McLean...

Woooooo!

That's not fair.

They get an extra player.

fastest team ever

anyway... not sure who we could have brought in....

nothing in the reserves adding pace
except maybe garlett... but if you took jeffy over youd probably have just paid his ticket home.

Went to training today. Be surprised if Carrots plays. He barely got out of a walk and did very, very little. Mind you it was only a touch less than Judd and Simmo so what would I know. The three of them were grouped together outside the main group. Clearly looking after the veterans.

Lucas and Watson trained fully. No Warnock or Jeffy. Can't remember sighting Army.

If we are looking to add run, the only option is Lucas. Late change for Carrots would hardly surprise.

Been a shit season. To see the pure joy of the little one though when getting signatures and photos with quite a lot of the boys today was a small personal highlight. I need some of that innocence back...

Reckon we are up against it but hope like hell we can take it to them tomorrow. Go Blues.

I just want my old club back.

Shocked to be sitting hre looking at those 'ins'. I tipped us to beat them but they've gone for pace with their ins and we've gone for a run with player and another who can find space well but has no pace.
I honestly thought Garlett and Armfield might get a 'run' this week on the long ground.
Armfield is out of favour and Garlett who knows. If he leaves for WA he'll revel on the big grounds every couple of weeks. And Armfield will get picked up at a bargain price if he goes. He plays hard, fast footy. One of my favourites to watch.

They'll run it through the midfield from half back. They've been doing it to us for years and this week will be no exception. I don't think this team can get up. Not that it matters. What matters is high picks. It's nice to win, just the same.
