[Happy Mastenator]

Is anywhere reporting why Franklin is out?

Heard Shep was going to go to him. Pulled out 5 minutes later

What the ****, just heard on the way home from work. First thought when they went to the teams that surely one of our boys was out, sigh of relief when they said late out for the swans, then had to make sure I'd heard correctly when they said Franklin. Where has this come from?

 

[Keys]

Just another reason this win will be questioned (should we win)...

Like every other win

With some justification it should be said

Absolutely no excuse if we lose this now

 

[Eastern Rangers]

Whoa! Massive out from left field.

It's only for Telstra customers though? If not I'll take it.

QS hit me up first - pass it along if it turns out you didn't need it dude.


btw you have to be Telstra to get one, not to use it (I believe)

 

[Eastern Rangers]

Tight back.

I blame the plane ride over.

Maybe had a big Saturday night with his best bud Sharrod.

 

[JordanWCE]

Buddy out?!

 

[midorigreenwood]

Had a go on welly's trampoline.

 

[bUCKET__]

I think that's untrue. He's just been having night terrors about matching up on Tom Barass.

Barrass will Mop the floor with the swan's forward line now

Wellingham just keeps proving his worth

 

[Crimson King]

No ****ing excuses at all. Pound them into the ground.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Sydney board is completely shocked by it but they flew two emergencies over so must have been on the cards all week

 

[Mr Eagle]

OK, there are no excuses now. This is ours to lose.

According to afl.com.au it only flared up after their Friday session in Perth, but yeah if they flew over two emergencies they surely must've suspected something - if not Buddy then someone else in the 22.

 

[Crimson King]

Still excited as it will be a good test for our midfield. How they stack up against one of the hardest working midfield unit.

 

[Here2tellyouwhy]

Wow. Might've run into Cuz also.

 

[W.C. Fry]

On train to ground. Read that Buddy was out . Got excited.

Read that Selwood is subbed. Almost made an unwanted scene in public.

 

[TassieEagle]

Franklin Out, Selwood to sub. It's hard not to get excited!

 

[Biggie]

Want a massive win here. Although the Swans mids are still intact, I want to crush these ****ers into oblivion.

No close game here thanks, time to **** them up...a Hawthorn style

 

[Avalor]

So swans will be fielding a small team then. I guess their plan is to run and stun. Good luck with that against us, the best in the business for strong second halves.

Good thing about our backline composition is I doubt this makes us too tall. Barrass might not be playing were Buddy announced as an out earlier, but with him as a KPD, Schofield is capable of playing as the third tall like he has forever, then Hurn, Wellingham, Shep, Ellis aren't exactly a tall group. Doesn't make us top heavy like it would were we playing Brown, McKenzie, Schofield, Gov and then Buddy withdrew.

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Given Selwood was named in the centre square its a very pleasant surprise that he's the sub

Reid, Goodes and The resting ruck still isn't overly small

 

[Avalor]

Going by the odds that were given though, maybe the bookies knew buddy would be an out.
