[Dave The Man]

I be heading down to do the Double

[jackcass]

Lot tougher gig this week. Doubt we can go into a game against the Cats relying on Brown (if he doesn't get promoted) and Marsh as our KPDs and not too sure we have too many other options. Really missing Riddle and Heagney-Steart. Oxley might return...

Doing the double

Oxley back.

HB Clarke Ramsay Seedsman
C Armstrong Dwyer Broomhead
HF Karnezis Allan Martin
F Fergusson Keeffe Adams
R Hudson Kennedy Thomas
Int Suckling Turner* J. Williams
R. Pendlebury Strachan Moloney
Hellier Oxley Tyquin

Whoever picks this team has a sense of humour, Mooney at full back, Ramsay at CBH, Keeffe at full forward.

[Pies4shaw]

Where the f^$# is Marsh?

[jackcass]

Good to see Oxley, Pendles & Suckling back. Marsh's omission is a mystery.

This really makes me cross. No Marsh & no explanation from the club. It's not that difficult to keep us informed.

I'll be there MB. After multiple failed attempts to post on my Galaxy S4, I have cracked it and will stump up for a SIM card for my iPad. Looking forward to the game..but am also a little bit worried about our chances.

Really looking forward to this double header. Strong team but seriously short due to those injuries to Gault and Lynch as well two rucks in the AFL team. Plenty of ball winners in Broomy, Adams, Dwyer, Thomas, Kennedy, Martin, Karnezis, Moloney, Hellier and Seedy. But how to stop their talks from dominating?

Yep, and I thought last weeks team had some height issues. Lost Brown, Marsh and Greenhough. Get Pendles, Keeffe and Oxley. Assume Keeffe will be ruck back up for Hudo. Guess Pendles, Allan and Oxley will be holding down the KPs, Karnezis to FF.

Sully's that good he's listed to play CHB and BP. Just note the size of their team. Raining here in Bendigo today and a little of that at Vic Park tomorrow might be useful. Theyve got 13 senior/rookie listed players, we've got 16.

The two Sullys is a typo. The one in the BP is supposed to be Joel Hamling (who himself is 194cm, so the point is almost a moot one).

Brown has also apparently been ruled out through injury.

[ronrat]

Get there at some time. Don't know why they bother naming sides in structured order any more. Pointless.Just name them in jumper order.

[jackcass]

yep, doing the double.
