THis is how I normally look so imagine now

 

[Mr Mojo Risin]

Uh. Isn't Smith injured?

It’ll be Hird playing in Smith’s jumper. Essendon fooling the competition again.

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

My kid had about 5 touches today. He's fresh if needed.

The old Froggy/Ham CHF tactic working well for us again

"They were cones!"

 

[naraku]

So has Smith now been outed as... faking it ?

 

[TheFrenchCut]

It is lowkey hilarious that even with a building injury list and illness going through the list, the "ready to go" mature aged recruit in McDonaugh still isn't picked.

Here's a photo of him at training Thursday night...

 

[Wahooti Fandango]

Such a Smith thing to do in saying he is good to play when clearly injured. Selfish.

He’s like the last guy picked at school.

Lord medical sub.

 

[Hamez]

3 days ago…

 

[The Prosecutor]

Selfish from Dev, blocking Hird from debuting when you clearly know you're not right.

 

[boncer34]

Seriously the club better have a good ****ing explanation for Smith.

 

[Pleasedonot]

As if I needed another reason not to tune into this shit show

 

[Kyptastic]

On the other hand, if we win this game with this sort of adversity it’ll be club defining

What a shitshow.

 

[jmoo wan]

I've been repeatedly told he's not allowed to

put him in and pay the fine. what are they going to do?

 

[boncer34]

The side isn't half bad. We could win.

 

[BratPack]

 

[JT_the_Man]

Hird is in the emergencies so clearly we could name him?

 

[Wahooti Fandango]

Yeah, I'm confused, I thought we could not play him as Cat B rookie?

he’s 68 years old - it’s far too late for him to be playing a night game
