I heard Smith failed a fitness test. Thats good news i reckon, it suggests he will be back next week.
WE MISS YOU SMITHY!!

 

[Renegade]

So Mackie and Gardiner stay. Bit disappointed to see Thurley dropped.
Mooney will probrably start on the bench, Rooke to back pocket and Tenace to start on the wing hopefully.

 

[Fall Out Boy]

Disappointing.

 

[ablettjnr]

Has Cam Thurley missed a goal in AFL yet?

 

[Bartel'sNo1Fan]

Disappointing.

what were u expecting?
i would have preferred mackie out thurley in but you have to give him a chance. Glad to see longergan out based on recent games - i think he has had a fair chance and may come back in the side later on.
otherwise quite happy (just wating for s johnson and corey back and we're right)

 

[Bartel'sNo1Fan]

Has Cam Thurley missed a goal in AFL yet?

no behinds or out on fulls
missed a goal based on distance but i spose that doesnt really count as missing a goal as the game was still in play after he kicked the ball.
so yeah he has kicked i think 7 straight?

Yeah good on him, looks pretty handy.
The only thing is outside the forward 50 he can be a little slow.

 

[Inside 50]

It seems pointless to me to play both Gardiner and Mackie, but what can u do. Would have rathered to have seen someone like Callan get a game.

 

[danny dickvos]

Yeh, callan has been exceptionally unlucky so far this year. Love to see him out there running the lines and playing the aggressive style of footy he is best at

A breath of Fresh air.
