Changes for R16 v Norf

[Papa G]

Bonner out of the club. Forever. Gone.

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

Woodcock stiff if he's not back in.

 

[Tredrea_Wanganeen_Gray]

Woodcock stiff if he's not back in.

The **** is out at the moment but he'll be in again soon.

 

[JimmyBC]

Out: Bonner & Sutcliffe

In: Sonny & Cher

 

[stewie griffen]

Bonner would be hanging on by his fingernails you'd think, Houston straight back in.

Sutcliffe adds nothing - Woodcock back after a rest

Hoff is lucky Ladhams isnt able to come back this week

 

[Power Raid]

Woodcock stiff if he's not back in.

is that the definition of hardwood

 

[Kickpuncher]

Out: Ebert (please retire before you do irreversible damage), Sutcliffe, Bonner, Westhoff

In: Houston, Georgiades, Woodcock

Does anyone know how Watts is tracking?

 

[It Just Is]

Out: Bonner, Sutcliffe
In: Houston, Motlop

How long is Georgiades out for?

 

[RossFC]

Out: Ebert (please retire before you do irreversible damage), Sutcliffe, Bonner, Westhoff

In: Houston, Georgiades, Woodcock

Does anyone know how Watts is tracking?

Rule Watts out for this year (in terms of throwing his name up for selection). Maybe after another pre-season.

 

[Chewy316]

Houston in for Bonner. Otherwise no changes.

I would like Ebert out and Woodcock in but I dont think it would happen. Ebert looks slow. Love his effort and tenacity, but i think he's as close to cooked as can be. Whilst Woodcock is slight of frame, he still isn't afraid to put his head over the ball, and his footy nous is impressive for a young player.

 

[Forward Flank]

He's having a rest at the moment, but will be ready for another round soon.

 

[Leaveit2charlie]

Ebert will play out the season. So think there’s no hope of him out unless form dictates otherwise between now and then. Think Timmy G mentioned his contact ends at seasons end.

Woodcock was hard done by this week but it's no easier to get back in this time around.

Houston will be the only in this week for Bonner

Ladhams the following week for Westoff and that barring injury will be it for the year.

Probably a question for another thread but does Watts even get another contract? If his body is failing him he could be in trouble. We have a first round pick half back coming through the draft/NGA as well.

If there is drastic list cuts, then maybe. I hope he gets 1 more chance and we have a squad of 40+.

Edit: Lienert possibly being traded could save him a spot.

 

[gbear]

Houston in for Bonner
Woodcock in for Ebert

 

[240volt]

It’s the sort of game I would drop Hoff and play Hayes.

 

[Port 2004]

He's having a rest at the moment, but will be ready for another round soon.

I am always full of hope

 

[malcheski]

I can see Woodcock being the type of player to be in and out, then In then out , then in then out again until he finally bursts one open only to have to wait another 5 weeks to go again.

Hopefully Ben Brown isn’t playing

Has been out with a knee injury since round 10. Only started running today. North only had 28 available players to select from this round due to injuries.

 

[elbarton]

I can see Sutcliffe playing the Ebert role if he’s out for any stretch of time. Effectively a medium forward who can provide a target/contest if the talks have pushed up, but also impact at ground level

So... this is setting up for a what happened power situation.....

I am hoping history does not repeat itself. At the end of the day we are a better team than last year, unsure by how much but the coming weeks will be telling.

 

[GoTheMightyCrows]

Out: Ebert, Westhoff, Bonner

In: Houston, Woodcock, Hayes or Buzza

Need a 2nd non-westhoff ruck to help Lycett.

 

[Interstater]

Its time to stabilise the side.

If I had my way Houston and Ladhams wouldn't play again this season, but Houston should be forced to miss at least one more game over and above the AFL's suspension for breaking Port's No Dickhead rule.

If Ebert is advised that he is ok then I'm expecting no change for the North Melbourne game.
Those that came in this week need time to settle in.

Anyone that thinks any of Bonner, Westhoff and Sutcliffe are being dropped is deluded, they are the players Ken wants playing finals.
I don't think we are bringing in more kids now.
