Checkers, WHE available.

McInnes out.

But first, bye.

Bitter pill for Reef.

 

[Peters_Nuts]

Out: Reef, Cox
In: Mihocek, Frampton

 

[swoop42]

Bloody awful for Reef and the last thing he and we need as it's one area of the ground we don't have much proven depth in (including Reef).

Frampton probably the next in line and he comes in to play as a blue collar option with the fancier stuff left to Howe and Moore.

Hopefully a few decent KPD prospects can emerge at state league level prior to the MSD.

 

[Bianconeri]

Out: Membrey, Reef,
In: Mihocek, Framtpon
Sub: Long

Tough selection with for Cox v Membrey with Mihocek coming back but I think Cox offers more in contested games in plus he gives Cameron a longer chop out which he’ll need over the course of the season.

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

Out: McInnes (injured), Crisp (suspended), Cox (omitted)

In: Frampton, Allan, Mihocek

 

[cfc19902010]

I’d be tempted to play mcstay back and miho comes back in forward
Dan can’t hit the side of a barn forward

 

[Chrispiesssss]

Frampton to play on McKay. Moore to play on Curnow.

Sling tackle crispy ?

Crisp isn’t getting suspended.

[cfc19902010]

No injury
Doesn’t look great tho

 

[jmac70]

Out: Membrey, Reef,
In: Mihocek, Framtpon
Sub: Long

Tough selection with for Cox v Membrey with Mihocek coming back but I think Cox offers more in contested games in plus he gives Cameron a longer chop out which he’ll need over the course of the season.

I’d be playing Beau as sub before Long.

 

[jmac70]

Free kick, that’s it.

 

[mocamagic]

Just trying to think if anybody’s been suspended previously when there was no injury at all

 

[Ctracks]

Miocek had back spasms as stated by Fly post-game press conference

 

[nahnah]

 

[hellfire]

Out: Reef, Cox
In: Frampton, Mihocek

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

Free kick, that’s it.

Happy to concede I'm getting worked up over not much - even Jon Ralph just said he thinks he's fine.

 

[nahnah]

im not confident with the Crisp one tbh, arms free but they've suspended Sicily for less

 

[Aussie pie]

Good thing even if Cox is concussed he’s available because of the bye.
Dean is a physical match for Reef/Murphy spot so will be interesting how he goes tomorrow. I’m inclined to have Frampton fill the spot as he gives us a bigger defender.Moore can play as the intercepted.

The VFL game might answer a few questions.

Keep an eye open for key defenders in the other VFL teams for the mid season draft.

 

[Occidental]

Crisp isn’t getting suspended.

No way a dopey suspension costs him the League consecutive games record….

 

[WakeUpPies]

Frampton did his job well last season before we went ruck/forward with him again. Going to need him to step up big.

 

[CaptainHowdy87]

Out: Reef, Cox/Membrey
In: Frampton, Checkers

What I really wish would happen though is for Cox to stay in the side and McStay to be moved to defence.

Just trying to think if anybody’s been suspended previously when there was no injury at all

There’s been plenty. Adams for us in 2023 against crows, Merrett too in the the same round, etc

Careless, high contact with only medium impact (ie no injury) still gets you a week generally.

I think Crispy is in trouble but I terribly hope I’m wrong.
