Trivia:
- Collingwood have a bad overall record against North Ballarat, but all 3 of the VFL Magpies' wins over the Roosters have come at Victoria Park (Round 5 of 2011, Round 1 of 2013 and Round 1 of 2014).

- Assuming he survives Bill Davoren's clutches this week (uh, I mean this week's training sessions), Brent Macaffer will make his first appearance for the VFL Magpies since Round 21 of 2012.

Over to you...

* Tentatively scheduled at Victoria Park but can possibly be moved to the MCG to act as a curtain-raiser.

can remove the asterisk. not going to happen.

that some of the teams around us still have a bye in hand is useful.

Done.

Which is a bit of a shame, but it's always great to be at Victoria Park regardless. Means a bit of a mad dash afterwards to the G, though...

Gault out injured. But hopefully the return of many players to the team including Macaffer, Dwyer, Oxley, DeGoey and with Clokey returning to seniors we should see around 16 AFL listed players.

Gault is no Big Loss. Moore is more then Likely to come back to the VFL Side with Cloke coming back in

if cloke comes back to afl side. moore and white in forward line with our small forwards will cause havoc.

We were discussing next week's game against Richmond, which starts in the morning and finishes about 30 to 40 minutes before the seniors play Richmond at the G.

The team will be somewhat weakened with Grundy coming back to replace Witts but should be strengthened a bit by the return of Moore and Scharenberg.

Grundy be very Stiff to get Dropped. Grundy back in the VFL make no Difference and I say make it Stronger

Moore will make way for Cloke.

Who would Take Scharanberg
