That’s an explanation of how it should work. I’m only presenting a case that it’s not yet locked in and until it is a change of thread title might be appropriate. Perhaps the AFL might take the view of it being “JUSTICE” were we to receive the Saturday afternoon timeslot?
Certainly a bit worried the lack of announcement yet might mean they are considering looking after the team they manage (GWS)
If we play Brisbane you would think the MCC and AFL members areas will be pretty heavily stacked the pies way
Wow, a week after they beat us by 4 points in the rain? You must really hate Richmond. I can't even watch the GF in the years we lose a prelim.Would hope so, but in my experience of watching us in GFs from the MCC members, the non-aligned tend to barrack loudly for whoever we play. Just as I did in the recent Richmond GFs at the G. I even wore a GWS badge for the 2019 GF.
Just got on pretty solid authority from someone who works in corporate at Carlton that they are preparing for a 4.45PM game in Brisbane next Saturday afternoon if they are to win tomorrow night.
A nice little curtain raiser for the Broncos game on Saturday night
the side was picked on position and form. Flys modern game is he has a squad of players from which he picks 23 every week. Our lack of injuries right now make this very competitive. 
I think/hope it's Daicos in for Lipinski, with one of Markov/Nick/WHE moving upfield
No I never referred to number of days break. My point was rather that if they win there’s the slightest possibility the AFL may factor the Sunday flight into their PF weekend fixturing if it hasn’t been finalised. Based on the post from adamov13 I think we’re good (the key to the oil being good was the time because that arvo slot is never 4:45).
Easiest selection ever. Daicos to HB, Markov to sub and Ginnivan misses.
Because he’s had a shit year and isn’t best 23? Why are we retaining him over guys that are clearly inside the best 23 is the more pertinent question.
I prefer the below, but I am just flat exhausted with Lipinski. Personally wouldn't bother with him for another week after his game against Melbourne, which was mostly a let-down (again). He has been far more down than up this season IMO. Hoskin-Elliott to play Lipinski's connecting runner role, Nick to launch our attacks from the backline. I think the speed aspect is more important to our style than what Lipinski brings personally.
Might want to review that post TFT
Lipinski was good v the Dees aside from a couple of iffy efforts, but they won’t drop him for that. Ginnivan is as slow as Lipinski and has nowhere near the sustained running power. Unfortunately Ginnivan left his run to late and Lipinski’s “dip” hasn’t been enough to surrender his spot this week at least.
Was he? In what ways was he good?
His ball use was top drawer. Chaining handballs and spot up kicking. For context on the night he was better than Jaicos, Elliott and McReery. Don’t get me wrong he’s on the edge, but Ginnivan hasn’t done enough to move past him. What do you think Ginnivan has done to move past him in the pecking order?
His handball use was good, but I think top drawer is putting a bit of mayo on it. 4 clangers from 13 disposals isn't too flash. I'll give better than Elliott - I think McCreery was better with his territory gain & pressure. I think he had an equally poor night with Josh, but Josh has much higher standards.
