IN: Selwood and Djerrkura

[chapmanmagic35]

The two young guns are on the seven man bench.

 

[tin can sam]

i think one of them will be dropped, but neither should be.

 

[Go_Dogs]

Who do you rate as a better chance? Both seem to have done a reasonable job over the pre-season. I feel that most likely neither of them will play.

 

[CF]

more importantly here's the team named:

The Geelong line up
B: Tom Harley (cap) – Matthew Scarlett – Corey Enright
HB: David Johnson – Matthew Egan – Darren Milburn
C: David Wojcinski – Jimmy Bartel – Andrew Mackie
HF: Paul Chapman – Cameron Mooney – Shannon Byrnes
F: Charlie Gardiner – Brad Ottens – Gary Ablett
Foll: Mark Blake – Joel Corey – Cameron Ling
Int from: Nathan Ablett, Joel Selwood, Josh Hunt, Nathan Djerrkura, Henry Playfair, Brent Prismall, Kane Tenace.

****ing Byrnes - cannot believe this dud still gets named in the the starting 18. You would think that Nathan, Joel, Josh and Prismall will play. Tenace the unlucky one.

You've read my mind mate! Give me Tenace ahead of Byrnes any day.

I think he was picked for his pace/speed

It would help if he could consistently hit a target. Imagine how many dirty looks he'll get from Mooney.

He is fast catching The Natural as my most hated player.

Shannon Byrnes - and so it begins. Stay tuned for more dumbfounding selection decisions throughout 2007.

Basically means that one of Selwood, Prismall or Tenace will miss at his expense. How can that be?

Puzzling. Absolutely puzzling.

rocket said on SEN he dosn't think Byrnes is gonna play

 

[rizzo]

wish he said the same about gardiner

Lucky for you guys Josh Hunt is on the bench. You guys will win if he dosent play. Worst player in the league for mine.

 

[thejester]

Charlie's form has warranted his selection.

 

[finrod]

wish he said the same about gardiner

Sure, Charlie has not been that great (ie - last year). But on pre-season form, he warrants a spot ahead of Nathan Ablett.

Whats that based on? The fact that he mistakes are always highlighted in the media? He can play, he's done some good jobs on dangerous forwards and he kicking is one of the best. Biggest problems are that he has no right foot and that he is prone to fumbling under pressure.

Byrnes in the first 18??!!!!!

someone pinch me please....this has to be a dream...

A dream or a nightmare?

 

[Rockford]

Byrnes and Gardiner both warrant selection based on their pre-season form. If Stokes was available I'd expect to see Byrnes on the bench but as it is...

Is this the same Josh Hunt that took a mark on the line in the dying minutes of the 4th quarter in our one point win against the Doggies last season?

Agree with Gardiner but if you thinks Byrnes warrants selection then you need to see a doctor or give me the same drugs you are on because you've got a hot batch!

Byrnes was amongst our best in the games against Richmond and Port.

He's in the 18. I'm not aware of an injury cloud. He'll play (unfortunately).
