Does anyone know why WHiley is unavailable

I've heard it is family related.

How the feck does Curnow hold a place after his first 3 games. FMD.

So let me start by saying I don't want to glamourise war or compare football to it and be disrespectful. But our mobs has its collective back against the wall like never before, I hope they dig deep this Sat and find some "digger" spirit and chalk up a win.
Go Blues

Hope Bucks makes an impression. I think he adds something we desperately lack.

Injuries to key players on both sides. Overseas flight. Might give the most ordinary game of all time a shake.

Blues by 32 (prepare for a hellish week)

I had him in my outs.

We have a side with Curnow, Armfield, Ellard, Bell and Tutt.
All honest tryers, but not your most skilled players going around. Certainly not going to win you many games off their own boot.

Add in players who have played a handful of games...
Boekhorst, Buckley and Cripps.

Lucky we are only playing Saints.

Curnow, Armfield, Ellard, Bell and Tutt. Would any of these guys get a run at Box Hill?

Tutt might struggle, the others would be walk up starts.

But, back to the side selected to play the Saints. Jaksch has been one of the few shining lights among our new additions. If he is fit, he should be in the 22. If he is going to come into the side for Jamison, Henderson will have to play in defence.

It will be interesting to see how Boekhurst goes. Hopefully he doesn't frequent this site and won't be under additional pressure to perform.

Buckley's selection is good news. I know his form hasn't been great but he really has a dip and you can't ask for more.

I'm a little surprised that Jones and Ellard got another run. Well, I'm not really surprised about Jones; he has to get a few more games to justify the trade. Who knows, everything may click for him this week and I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Finally, Ed Curnow's strength is his ability to run his opponents into the ground. Don't play him as a half back where he can't use his tank and doesn't provide the run and carry that is necessary in today's footy.

We recruited him but that was pretty funny.

Judd has got back soreness. Would have played if the game was on a Sunday and against Collingwood.

The rest will do him good.

Curnow and Rowe are in the team only because we lack reserves. Curnow, probably because Whiley couldn't go. Rowe, because we lack another big log of wood to replace him.

I'm actually very excited about this game, not only do we get to see Bucks, Blainester and Jaksch in action the game also starts at 11:30AM! Think of Shades and CIMM they'll be tuning in at 830AM!
