Game Day Round 5: Collingwood v St Kilda, Sunday 16 April, 4.50pm, AO

[Jen2310]

Wilson not on the flight
That turns 26 into 25 on the extended bench
Leaves Ginni. Ruscoe and Bianco as options

 

[Pie thon]

I think Tom Wilson gets called up to replace Reef, to relieve AJ going into the ruck or Checks/AJ resting on the bench

 

[live fast pieyoung]

Ginnivan wouldn't be a good sub IMO.

He'd be a good replacement in the 22 for McInnes. Leave a Markov or someone with good fitness/speed as the sub.

I dont see why you would have someone with good fitness as a sub
if anything you want a high impact burst player with a limited tank
thats why carmichael and henry both did well as a sub coming on

Read above. Was not on the plane, so rules him out

Any reason this game is being rated Adults Only?

Yes because we are going to do this to St Kilda;

 

[Bianconeri]

Reef was subbed out unusually early from a game... Mcrae normally holds onto his sub until much later in the game, then instantly dropped.

Wonder what he did? Just didn't touch the footy? Or didn't listen to coaches instructions?

He had no impact in the game and we were down so needed impact from the sub. Think you’re reading into it too much.

 

[Dead Eye Didak]

Saints not playing Membrey apparently.
This may allow McStay to play forward more, and give Frampton more game time in the ruck.

How do you know who was on the plane?

Too honest for my liking. Reckon Ross the Boss will have him in the 23

 

[Jen2310]

How do you know who was on the plane?

Saw a tweet from a girl who was on the same plane as the team and thus she mentioned it.

Didn’t she tell you? Jen is the captain now.

 

[foreigner]

I have a feeling that they will play Ginni. We could do with some X factor.

Sorry to burst your bubble Jen, but I actually know a bloke (Pies supporter) who works at Adelaide Airport, and he literally just messaged to say that Wilson walked past him.

Also, Bianco isn't in the extended squad, so he's not going to be in consideration at all.

I am not wishing to play devil's advocate, but unless it's tongue in cheek, Emma appears to be a Collingwood hater, so why should she even know who plays for the club, let alone which of the reserves is not on board?

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

Just got sent this from open training in Adelaide, Wilson in centre frame. Ruscoe also visible.

I stand corrected.

 

[foreigner]

When would they announce the final squad, tonight or tomorrow?

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

Update from open training contact: every member of the squad is there. Must mean none of our emergencies will be playing VFL this weekend. Box Hill to have a field day.
