"...In Heath Scotland, Out Adrian Deluca, Kade Simpson, Simon Wiggins..."

So much for playing youth. This is bullshit Blues.

Happy to see another rucking option, but what about trying some other young blokes or persist with the current batch of young blokes and drop some mid-20+ blokes instead. This isn't trying to win or tanking - don't know what this is.

PS - I'm sure Scotland go his act together last week. What a relief! More bullshit.

I feel better now.

Thanks sas87.

Well, happy to see young Bryan get a debut, hope he goes alright and gets in amongst it.

Would like to have seen Simpson persisted with rather than being in and out, yeah, he had a bad game last week, but I'd still try him for a few games in a row.

We were killed in the rucks last week, and it looks ominous again for Saturday.

Jolly and Ball (both established front-liners), backed up by Brownlow medallist Adam Goodes, versus a big-hearted trier in Prenda and a first-gamer. Any way you look at it, we're outgunned in both quality and quantity.
If Stevo doesn't play - oh God.....I don't even want to think about it.

Chris Bryan, come on down.

I agree. I don't usually feel angry about changes to the side...

Rough on Kade, I reckon.

Good to see Bryan given a shot.
Let's hope he takes this opportunity and runs with it.

In: Davis Malceski Schauble Spriggs

I wonder if they are trying to justify their swoop on Spriggs in the draft? I doubt if his selection will cause too many worries.

Nick Davis always seems to do well against us, the little bastard. Job for Carrazzo perhaps?

Then who do we put on Oâ€™Loughlin? Cloning is looking more and more attractive as a option. Do you think the AFL would notice?

Livo for Hall, T-bird for O'loughlin

Livo to play on Hall , Thornton on Goodes, Jolly should ruck all day leaving Goodes to do wateva he wants. Lance up Forward, maybe Goodes will play CHB on Lance.

If Stevens is out then maybe the Wiggmeiter will be recalled.

If Stevens is out, Simpson would be the more logical,skilled and able choice than Wiggins.

Should Stevens not play Glen Bowyer or Troy Longmuir are likely to replace him.

Hello from London. Pitty Wiggins is out. He is a superstar. Need a big game from Davies and hopefully he gets a full game.

Fair enough selections and glad to see Bryan get a game..its been overdue. Davies deserved his spot after the Bullants game and Scotland is better than ressies football. Longmuir probably the unlucky one.
I dont see it as a badly balanced team and unlike others I think we can win....Barry Hall has averaged five against us so to me its simple stop the supply to big Bazza and we win.....

re: Wiggins..bit unlucky but I think he nees to get more of the footy when he does get a game and like Sporn could be in strife if he cant command a regular spot in the seniors by the seasons end...

Yes, but didn't show it ...so there starts being two structures...the "try your guts out in the NB and get a game" ...and the "your back at NB to get your mind right".

For young players it's very confusing as to "Which am I?"

How many games do you have to play for the Bullants to make you available to play in the VFL Finals .

Thornton on O'Loughlin. I wouldn't worry about Goodes, he's way off form and plays as a ruck-rover, get Kouta to run with him.
