Changes v Weagles

[House_of_Dahl]

Potty Bedendo had a quiet game last week.

That’s a bit of mean name for him

 

[Brass Dog]

He'd never heard of footy before we approached him.

Hey google, what is football?

 

[dergert]

Sounds like Macrae will be back to full time mid.

Good.

 

[Golden_6]

Harmes not even an emergency this week? A lot more depth at the club this year compared to others.

What did he get suspended for? Who did he hit

 

[Yesterday Dog]

What did he get suspended for? Who did he hit

Headbutted May. Should be congratulated

 

[Mojorisin]

Headbutted May. Should be congratulated

They're actually good friends

 

[threenewpadlocks]

He played football all through juniors and school footy at Xavier until he was 18. He only missed two seasons while playing elite standard cricket.

He was also training with the VFL team (not sure how frequently, but he was) with a view to becoming a VFL listed footballer for some time before we officially nominated him as a Cat B. It wasn't as if we taught him the rules of footy in a week and put him on the field.

 

[Optimistic Dog]

Strange one Marra did not injured last Saturday but had a quiet game even allowing for the goal he pinched off Bailey Dale

. Hopefully nothing serious listed as a knee.

 

[Bulldog Brent]

JUH will play

 

[doggies ftw]

Sounds like Marra & Bont are good to go, no JOD on the track today unfortunately - hopefully he at least plays tomorrow. Doc & Poulter in the 23 from the looks of things.

I don’t see it with Poulter.

 

[ringa5]

Wonder if the Bulldogs sport scientists think resting players like Bont,Treloar and Libba if carrying niggles is beneficial. Macrae used to be an all Australian midfielder. .love to see the challenge taking on Bonts role .And Garcia or West in Libbas role for the same reasons. Wouldn't like it for the same week.But the season is a marathon and a lot of teams rest older players.

 

[Doggy]

Wet toast are tallish up forward. Needed JOD

Bulldogs midfielder Jack Macrae headlines a pair of inclusions for Sunday’s clash against West Coast at Marvel Stadium on Sunday.

Senior Coach Luke Beveridge confirmed the three-time All Australian would be in the starting 22, rewarded for his dominant 46-disposal performance for Footscray last week.

Taylor Duryea comes into the side for his first game of the 2024 season, replacing the injured Ed Richards.

Only Darling though? Allen is out.

They have two tall young forwards on the 5 man bench. Interesting, even if one is the sub.

Ahh true hadn't noticed that. Could be a good way for JOD to ease into a bit on an inexperienced forward.

 

[lachy]

Only Darling though? Allen is out.

Tall forwards for wet toast will not be our issue.

Would have preferred Garcia to Poulter in any position every day of the week, but that is not in any way going to influence the result of this game.

Turn up with last week's attitude we win comfortably, turn up with last year's against them attitude it is game on.

The selected team should win comfortably

Yeah, except he's not playing

 

[House_of_Dahl]

Unlikely but could swap out as emergency

No, we DON’T want late outs!

 

[Scotch N Coke Monatore]

No, we DON’T want late outs!

Not for Poulter, with Duryea as sub in case a back flanker or pocket is injured?

 

[House_of_Dahl]

No, we DON’T want late outs!

Duryea woke up with some tightness or something

 

[ScragCity]

Interesting with JUH - don't recall seeing him get injured. Did he take a pee test this week?
