If we get over the line, this will be one of the greatest wins ever

INS (official): Bucks, Presti, Holland, Walker

OUTS: Tarrant...and I missed the others.

Rocca unlikely, but named.

Well there would only be one out at the moment but the main thing is who is on the extended bench?

IN: Buckley, Presti, Holland, Walker

OUT: Tarrant (suspended), not sure about the others.

Walker AND Presti? Who are they planning to man up on?

Maybe one of them might go forward?

Joel · Post by **Joel** » Thu Jun 10, 2004 7:11 pm

Walker would go forward I would think, unless Malty is planning to put J.Cloke forward, and Walker down back.

That's only the extended bench of seven players, so Walker may not actually play. We probably won't need him anyway if Rocca plays.

How has Walkers form been in the VFL??? He needs to play a lot harder from what I have seen. The only time he looks like he is going flat out is in the ruck.

Should McKee be given a gurnsey in the forward line this week???

BigT, Walker has been in the best at Williamstown, week in, week out. But, he has been in the backline.

Walker may not play, but we are assuming that he will atm, based on the team named. That's all we can go on currently.

McKee won't play, he hasn't been named, and unless he is an emergency, he is no chance. I would rather play other footballers down there. Even, if we have to play Bucks at FF for one week. We do have options, but it jsut depends upon whether they will kick goals.

McKee as far as I know isn't even playing that well at Williamstown.....besides he's just got over an injury I think...Could Zane Leonard be a chance in the next few weeks though?

Joel · Post by **Joel** » Thu Jun 10, 2004 7:33 pm

Zane Leonard is still injured isn't he? Assuming he is, I would expect that he will play at Williamstown first.

Collingwood

B: Holland, Wakelin, J.Cloke
HB: Shaw, Clement, Cole
C: Woewodin, Buckley, Lockyer
HF: Didak, Rocca, Lonie
F: Johnson, C.Cloke, Fraser
FOLL: Richards, Burns, Licuria
I/C (from): Davis, Lokan, McGough, Maxwell, Prestigiacomo, Swan, Walker
IN: Buckley, Holland, Prestigiacomo, Walker
OUT: Tarrant (suspended)

from afl.com.au

So it's not a final team yet - an extended interchange

Post by **David** » Thu Jun 10, 2004 7:41 pm

Interesting 'extended interchange' line-up....probably Prestigiacomo and maybe Maxwell are the only players who would be fairly confident to play....Davis, Lokan, McGough, Swan and Walker will all be fighting for those last two interchange positions.....Walker will probably be named as an emergency to come into the side if Rocca doesn't play. With Holland in, Lokan could lose his place in the team, and I'd say Davis will be lucky to be named in the 22.

Joel · Post by **Joel** » Thu Jun 10, 2004 7:41 pm

But, surely that means, only one player can come in? If we have only selected one player to go out, does that mean that more can go out, or is that disallowed because of the reason I mentioned?

Post by **David** » Thu Jun 10, 2004 7:45 pm

Basically this is what happens: sides to play on Sunday (and in this case Monday) will name a side of 25 players with 7 'interchanges'. these 7 will be split into interchanges and emergencies tomorrow evening I think. So there will be three more 'ins' than 'outs' in the thursday evening team list.
