[DEliades]

Nailed those ins. Cinc the perfect match up for Elliott

 

[Sharks On A Plane]

Young over Kemp is… weird.

 

[Soapy V]

In: A.Cincotta, D.Cuningham, O.Fantasia, A.Cerra
Out: B.Kemp (omitted), O.Hollands (omitted), J.Binns (omitted), J.Carroll (omitted)

Statement made. GOOD

 

[Worm4]

Ollie needs to put on 10 kegs and quickly.

 

[gab213]

not a troll account, just a newbie. and you didnt answer the question!

It appears that you got your well deserved answer

 

[carlton_99]

Okay with the changes but our backline is very inexperienced with Cowan, Cincotta, Young and Boyd all in there. Just need to make they they keep the Collingwood smalls in check

 

[reg_lower91]

Durdin lucky

Agreed but rckon he will be the sub... so he's literally on the cusp of being dropped.

 

[Aphrodite]

Team stickied

 

[Sam The Doc]

Durdin lucky

Owies triple lucky

 

[JJBagger]

Young over Kemp is… weird.

Not really, Young is better one on one, and has the size to combat Cox and Cameron. Unfortunately there doesn’t seem to be a matchup for Kemp

 

[JJBagger]

Ollie needs to put on 10 kegs and quickly.

Harsh. He’s a 19 year old wingman

 

[T2B_]

It would have to sting Ollie that Elijah has come along and played better and kept a spot in the team.

But anyway, we do love you Ollie and haven't forgotten what you are capable of, but you need a break and to find some form.

 

[Graffy4242]

Owies triple lucky

He plays well against the Pies

 

[BigFrizz36]

Young over Kemp is… weird.

Not really. Weitering plays on Mihocek and Young plays on Cameron/Cox. No other talls. Horses for courses.

 

[T2B_]

Owies triple lucky

Wouldn't surprise me if he kicks 3 goals or something though. If he has a stinker this week he'd be out though.

 

[Arr0w]

Toss up really

Kemp on Mihocek, Weitering on resting ruckman

Weitering on Mihocek, Young on the resting ruckman

Prefer the 2nd option, just

 

[Stamos]

Durdin lucky

Not as lucky as Owies

 

[gandaal]

Great statement made. We're still carrying a few but we're on the right track.

 

[myblueroan]

A bit surprised Kemp and not Young out, but coaches know best.

 

[Mondyboy]

Durdin lucky

Very. High chance he’s the sub.

[Accidental genius]

Hopefully Williams received a stern talking to.

Needs to tighten up and be more disciplined if he’s to continue playing in defence.

 

[keldam22]

My Collingwood mate tried to pull the DeGoey / Mitchell outs on me and then I mentioned all the best 23 that we had missing.

Still haven't heard back from him...

One of mine did the same thing today .. She said she’s tipping us coz of their injuries… Kindly reminded her that we’re without half our backline and forward line and that she should tip her own team (we don’t need their filthy tips)

 

[Accidental genius]

Great to have Cerra and cinc in.

Hopefully cunners puts in a good game.

Fantasia needs to deliver.

 

[Michael Jezz]

Blues by 9 points
If we lose this, winning the flag is difficult.
Suprised by the Kemp Omission, Durdin and Owies could do with a reality check in the 2's but that might be next week

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Happy we've swung the axe.

However, I do hope that Kemp isn't a scapegoat for our defence last week, and it's just a matter of not having a proper matchup for him. He's quick enough to play on a medium forward. Either way, I'm perplexed he is a yo-yo in this side.
