I think that's the thing. He's just been going 'alright' in the 2s for the moment. Was a bit fumbly last week. Can hopefully turn it up and get back a spot soon.

Completely overlooked the Stanley ommission. Could be an attitude thing as on ability he is in our top 10 players.
His initial club suspension was 4 weeks but he complained to the AFLPA to reduce it to 2. That could well have annoyed the club and issues lead from there.
Day an interesting inclusion, could be ok as he wont cop the best defender with 1 of Bock/Lynch likely to be up there with him.

I think that won't matter too much. Pears is comfortably more experienced than Lynch, and Carlisle the same with Day, and Fletcher would easily account for Fraser
I look forward to seeing Caddy for you lot

If the boys play as sharply as they trained, they're going to really compete. Crazy how they just cannot get the translation from training to games yet.
not really. You generally only play as well as your opposition lets you

I predict Dons by 10+ goals. Quite a few changes to both sides but doesn't alter the fact Bombers are in good form and we are playing worse than the latter stages of last season.
havent seen the forecast for this afternoon, but it looks like it could be a bit of wet weather footy tonight. cloudy skies all around, looking like rain could be on the cards.
Don't think it will be wet --cool with showers I'd say
I'm more optimistic than I was last week simply because of Bocky's inclusion
Unfortunately as each week passes I don't think we were lucky enough to get a quality power forward out of young crop...envious glance at GWS and Jeremy Cameron
We will have to "make do" unless we can snaffle a forward for 2013
On that, I think it's interesting that Maysie was apparently recruited on the back of a 7 goal effort as a schoolboy playing for Melbourne Grammar...and gets plenty of chances..albeit now as a back
Dicko pings 9 in the NEAFL and can't swing a hairy testicle into the team bus.
The vagaries of Sporting Clubs
(I guess I got plenty of games because my Dad and brother were guns.)
We match up better against Essendon than St Kilda I think
Their up and comers can have "off-games", so, if we can shake the first quarter Metricon monkey and get off to a good start I think we will be more competitive
That might still equate to 8-10 goals, but late blowouts are different to being roadkill at half time and the opposition coasting in.

McKenzie the sub. 
Was hoping for a full game from him. Hoping he gets enough match fitness to run the whole game out against the Lions next week.

Wow! We're seriously in this!
We're actually hard at the contest for the first time this year. Clearances also up. This is back to our game-style from late last year. Still some fumbling, but improved considerably over the first two rounds.
If they continue like this, we're in with a real shot.

Very impressed with GC tonight - still a half to go but if they keep this list, a few years time...

Fantastic effort - what an utter corker of a game (since quarter time).
Good luck, Suns!

If this was last year we would have fallen away in that quarter. Only one more push!

ugh, i dont like Brennan in the forward line at all...
Bit hard done by the umps you blokes
Great effort tonight Suns, but you must lift now if you want to win. I agree with the poster above about the umps!

Bombers are playing for frees here and the umps are buying it. Ruining a great game.
