What time today do they finalise Sunday teams?
Ireally don't understand the amount of Hams hate on this board. Sure he was poor against N.Melb and Sydney recently but he's still managed 18 goals from 12 games and I think a couple of those were as a sub. He's had a pretty solid year so far.

I thought Hams has been good this year and last??
5pm today AEST I think.
Hams has been solid enough but tends to play in spurts, one minute he is everywhere, the next he goes missing for a quarter or two. He is depth, but is doing a decent job thus far.
Tend to agree on christmas hams. I reckon he has been pretty good, cant expect too much from him, averaging more than a goal a game for a replacement small forward isnt bad. Not bad a getting free kicks either
Well isn't that just the most ridiculous thing ever.
Hams has given us 18 goals this season, including three last week.
Weedon's given Claremont Reserves another player on the park.
i'll grant you that his goal output has been acceptable, but it's no coincidence that our forward press has been nowhere near as effective this year with hams being a regular in the side.
All well and good, but your reasoning included bringing in Weedon based on pre-season form. Since that time he's been dropped to the Claremont Reserves, and since coming back in the seniors has played in the backline.
You put this down to Hams being in the side, and not the absence of Nicoski, Kennedy and LeCras and their combined 226 tackles from last season? Or the change in game plan across the league to neuter the press?
MC have lost the plot big time. McGinnity should be nervous on Thursday's to see if he makes the claremont reserves team!!!

Shuey and Hill for Brennan and Newman are the final changes.

Very interesting decision to leave Brennan out.

I hear he is a filthy disease carrying beast and I for one would not eat him!
He's Louie the fly. He's spreading disease with the greatest of ease.

If its for a rest then that I can understand, but surely it can be on form and effort or even team balance.

A rest would fair enough, but to effectively swap him for a forward in Hill is a bit odd. Brennan certainly hasn't been the worst over the past few weeks either... *cough McGinnity *cough*

With McGinnity still in, rightfully so.

Id tend to argue for Butler being out over Brennan. Edit: Just a glance at the stats says Butler has had more of the ball but.

McGinnity won't be playing in defence.
It was a choice between Brennan and Butler for the 7th defender, and I agree with the decision.
Mind you, I would have kept Brennan as the sub, and dropped McGinnity.
