I am tipping a few heads to explode when McKernan gets a late call up tomorrow.

ive given my reasons above why I know this will happen.

for me its a lock, its all about his mentality.

 

[DapperJong]

Heads will explode when Smack gets selected along with Melican being replaced with Will Hayward.

Heads will explode when the Bombers win.

 

[Howard Moon]

the times we have been at our best, or forward set up was thus:

JD
Hooker
Stewart
Tippa
Greene
Fantasia

when we have been sub par, varying names from that list have been missing, throwing off the balance

JD
Hooker - ?
Stewart
Tippa
Greene - Begley
Fantasia

we have nearly got it back to its rightful chemisty with Begley covering for green, but no hooker replacement? I can't see it. I know small ground and all, and wanting to go in small - I don't see how Mckernan does not redress the balance of our ideal set up.

 

[DERO]

Haha.

 

[Stopher]

Heads will explode when the Bombers win the flag.

[Killer_Mike]

We are a lock!

 

[Runk]

We are a lock!

First time I've EVER heard that. Damo just making shit up as per usual.

 

[Howard Moon]

if theres no shit kent - then there no sliding doors article

 

[DapperJong]

Don't forget there's two versions of Hooker, and they both have drastically different effects on a game. This could be a blessing in disguise.

These pricks were trying to bury Hooker only a couple of months ago. Now we can't win without him...

I'm excited by it. It means we have to use our smalls more and create more run.

If we park Stewart or Joe at full forward that will be a big mistake.

We need to replicate what Adelaide did lastnight and leave the forwardline open as much as possible to run into.

 

[Killer79]

For the people assuming that McKernan will come in late, who do you think will come out for him?

You in Sydney?

 

[tesla1962]

You in Sydney?

sadly no, otherwise I would be standing vigil at the SCG and turning their water mains off if the need arose

 

[AcuteWhistle]

Bad Hooker or Good Hooker, we look much more dangerous with him in. There were wild rumours pregame last night that Sloane was warming up to play so expect the same for Hooks tomorrow.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

McKernan was in the rooms for Freo game as emergency and still didn't get a game when Hooker pulled out. So don't think him going up to Sydney is any indicator... unless Joe or TBC pull out!

 

[Howard Moon]

the more I look at it I don't actually see where Gleeson fits in to this line up, tall enough at the back - he dosent offer run like the other 2. Reckon hes the unlucky one if it happens.

Pepper your respective angus' Bomber fans.

I'm glad you finally decided to create your own account instead of getting the marketing girls to find out "secrets" on bomberblitz and sending your IT guy to hang out at Melbourne airport to see which players get on the plane.
