You would seriously drop Breust before Wingard????

Breust has already been reported as out.

What Kermit said

 

[Manila_Hawk]

Scrimshaw will take Breust's spot

 

[TDS7]

Scrimshaw will take Breust's spot

And CMac takes up a half-back spot for CJ. It's so convoluted it might just work!

 

[BIGHAWK23]

Swing and a miss

 

[Strebi3]

Trying something different, maybe Cmac off halfback or wing, Sicily CHF or could swap with Scrimmers. That forward line looks very dangerous and with Freo only having Amiss and a resting Luke Jackson

But... his hands.... I don't understand?!

His small hands provide him an advantage for tapping as there is less drag on the surface area of his palms as they move through the air.

 

[Newmo89]

If Rama goes back to Box Hill and Meek is brought up to the seniors, it means Rama will be the sole ruck at Box Hill which isn't something that he's ready for yet, especially with him doing the majority of his training as a forward.

Interesting point, hadn’t thought of it like that before

I'm pretty sure Kozi and Jeka would pinch hit in the Ruck to chop him out. I don't see Rama taking the whole Ruck duties alone.

We'll pick the best side we can believe can beat Freo. If that's Meek, then Ramma will have to do what's asked at VFL level.

Rama didnt ruck solo when both Ned & Lloyd were in seniors i think BH have another ruck?

edit: poor lynchy

 

[Ned Ryerson]

Clay Tucker is training at Box Hill - is he able to be called up?

Apparently he is available to play for Box Hill this week, which means that if Meek comes up, Rama plays predominantly forward like he has all season

 

[WWSD]

I really hope Ramsden and Weddle are given another game and not sent back to the VFL.

I want to see how Brockman and Butler work as a small forward duo. Have they played together at AFL level?

 

[SJT76]

With Breust out, I’d probably still pick CMac, but he plays higher and has less scoreboard impact than Butler. Hope Greene has a big one

 

[Newmo89]

Max Lynch ran some slow laps at training today, a few which he did with Sam, which is great to hear he's back at the club after his latest concussion

I’m worried about the repercussions of that post for you given your username…

 

[MasterSamurai]

İf not now, when? Butler needs to be rewarded for some solid form at box Hill.
And scrimshaw to play that half Frwd role that I think he's suited to. Good overhead, can snag a goal and work his opponent inside out, bit like Ben Dixon
