How ridiculous.  What else are they going to put on, the front bar?
Better Homes and Gardens......

Given that both Bombers and Blues fans will be spending more time this September in the garden than at the MCG, it's probably a more relevant option!

No good in the garden either.
Those 'green shoots' never sprouted.

Be an interesting test for the '$1.8m Man' against Jarrod Witts without Pit to wear him down. Not sure TDK likes the reckless big guys.

Interesting dropping Pitto.
Not sure what the thinking is there.

Our line-up:

B:   42 Adam Saad   23 Jacob Weitering   32 Matthew Carroll
HB:   2 Lachlan Cowan   33 Lewis Young   26 Nick Haynes
C:   13 Blake Acres   9 Patrick Cripps   43 Ashton Moir
HF:   4 Oliver Hollands   10 Harry McKay   38 Will White
F:   8 Lachie Fogarty   40 Hudson O'Keeffe   6 Zac Williams
R:   12 Tom De Koning   36 Cooper Lord   29 George Hewett
Int:   35 Billy Wilson   19 Corey Durdin   45 Flynn Young   3 Jesse Motlop   44 Francis Evans
Em:   25 Jaxon Binns   27 Marc Pittonet   39 Alex Cincotta

{1] Our defence looks much weaker with HOF. But at least we know that Young can play the role. How well? That is the question. He'll probably play on Read. :(
[2] We've got only 1 ruck this week, which puts the ball firmly in TDK's court. He's been down, while Witts has been in career best form. Still, no Pitto, which may improve the VFL boys' chances.
[3] Our forward structure - I have a lot of questions. HOK as the key forward ... Fogarty, who doesn't kick goals ... You get the idea.

We won't be anything close to favourites.

At least I can get to this one. I intend to complain to the AFL about the number of Thursday night games we've had to endure. Another one is the last straw. They've made my membership worthless. They won't do anything, but at least I know I'll tried.
Live Long and Prosper!

Witts is smashing the comps best ruckman, De Koning isn't anywhere near the top echelon of rucks at the minute.

Too many small forward crabs - Binns and Cincotta can provide some outside drive.

Three small forwards on the bench is like wtf you doing Vossy.

Yep. On form we go into this game with four passengers - Acres, Durdin, Fogarty & Motlop.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

You never know.
With a bit of certainty around Voss, and a nothing to lose approach.
They might at least make it interesting...for a while. ;)

De Koning is barely competing, doesnt want to injure himself in readiness for playing for StKilda. I actually dont know why we are playing him, should have dumped him months ago.

He has been playing injured and out of position.

Looking better the last couple of weeks, hopefully he will be back to his best tonight..

I saw him twist against the bombers.  I reckon he's carrying something that's making twist and turn a challenge.
