Id prefer Markov as sub - he's hanging on by a thread at the moment.Unless they give Harrison a run as the Sub after a few quiet games, it seems like Long could be the sub. Kind of a shame if he is.

By an average winning margin of 42 pointsWe'll win the next 11 and go B2B.
Maynard probably is hurt but he plays through it!Almost nailed it outside Maynard/Fin
Thought Maynard was hurt but obviously isn't
I'm going tonight for my first game in a while. Haven't been able to attend games for a variety of annoying (not too serious) reasons.
Anyway, I dont like Essendon games and I dont like Essendon fans. But is there a more dislikable player in football than Jake Stringer? He's a walking horror show, but a damn good footballer when he turns it on.
Pies have to win this one for a lot of very good reasons, including making Stringer feel bad. Not too much to ask, surely?
Thank youFirstly, hope you feel better soon.
Secondly, see your Stringer and raise you a Zorko and Joey Daniher.
I'm barracking for Darcy Bonecrusher Moore's knee tonight. Just one more Darcy.
He needs to rest the knee, ready for Carlton.I'm barracking for Darcy Bonecrusher Moore's knee tonight. Just one more Darcy.
But the jury’s still out on Zorko?Thank you
Re Daniher, I get what you mean, but he won me over in last year’s GF. A very talented but very inconsistent player, yet he stood up and worked harder than many of his mates that day. I admire him for it.
We’ve been winning and holding the fort, while effectively playing a VFL side, and now despite some stars back which improves us, we’ve got gloom and doom everywhere.Massive call, winning the next 4. Tonight's a 50/50 game. We lose tonight and we're a real chance of not making the 8 this season..
Come on. Playing 5-6 VFL players is not a full VFL side. I'd just say we were playing at 75% strength with some of our AFL-listed players not in top form, that would be more accurate.We’ve been winning and holding the fort, while effectively playing a VFL side, and now despite some stars back which improves us, we’ve got gloom and doom everywhere.
I really don’t get it.
God I hope soPoor Darce is copping it from all angles.
On the topic of unpopular footy personalities, another one who tops the list is Tom Morris. Seriously awful, and the so-called journalist who ‘broke’ the story this week about Moore’s out of control knee. Trac, Witts, could Stringer be its next victim?
Not many teams have a tagger these days.They're a side that lacks a proper tagger though, unless Merrett sacrifices his own game which would actually suit us.
I don't even like that term. VFL players. They are AFL lister players. Just call them what they are, inexperienced and young. That's all.Come on. Playing 5-6 VFL players is not a full VFL side.

I assume that is because frampton has played about 15 games and only rucked for short periods in maybe 3 of them compared to Kreuger who has rucked in about half of his games.Possibly so and was my original thought..but it’s been pointed out to me that frampton is only 0.3 hitouts per game better than Kreuger
Be interesting to see which way they go.
Jeez you draw some long bows spinny.Frampton was fine last year when Cameron and Cox were injured - that was a true test, that demonstrates his superiority over Krueger as a Ruckman.
Are you suggesting Kreuger could do as well as Frampton did in the same circumstances?Jeez you draw some long bows spinny.
I’m suggesting that you have no idea whether Kreuger could or couldn’t do that as it hasn’t been tried. Both have their strengths and weaknesses as ruckmen, hitouts only being one metric.Are you suggesting Kreuger could do as well as Frampton did in the same circumstances?
My comment was figurative rather than literal.Come on. Playing 5-6 VFL players is not a full VFL side. I'd just say we were playing at 75% strength with some of our AFL-listed players not in top form, that would be more accurate.
Frampton has proven his capability- that’s my point.I’m suggesting that you have no idea whether Kreuger could or couldn’t do that as it hasn’t been tried. Both have their strengths and weaknesses as ruckmen, hitouts only being one metric.
As it stands all we have to go on for what they’re currently capable of is the brief amount of time they have both rucked this year, and as it stands there’s nothing between them as rucks while Kreuger is miles ahead as a forward.
Eagles didn't. Dee's didn't. Port didn't.Would be nice to have a team not play at their best against us for once
Opposition is not Melbourne or Port, so not likelyWould be nice to have a team not play at their best against us for once
