Ugh.

Houli and Bolton in with Miles for Prestia, Short (Om) and yep, Reiwoldt with an eye.

Meanwhile suns bring in Abblett and May.

Lock in a loss for this one.

According to RFC website...

Out:
Prestia (knee/calf soreness)
Jack (eye)
Short (omitted)

In:
Miles
Bolton
Houli


Personally I'm shocked that Short has been omitted. Has been one of my favourite players this year. And a forward line with no talls at all?

With JR out Moore and Elton should have both been named.
Not sure why people are surprised with Shorts omission his last two have been awful.
Would also like to see some reward for Townsend and Miles.

The prefect week to bring in Lennon imo.
Plonk him at FF and see what he can do.

I'm not sure if anyone has thought of this but if we lead at the player with the footy that may work??

I think we may lose this one and I would have a bet but GC are only paying $2:50

What horrible changes!

Why wouldn't you play Lennon or Elton or Moore?

Going to be slippery conditions and need tall targets to go to to at least bring the ball to ground!

We are no certainties to make finals!

Most unwanted person at Richmond at the moment- it's a close call between Ben Lennon and George Pell

No, i said we may have lost it at the selection table bringing in an outside player for miles

In this instance, heading into a game without a single key fwd is unchartered territory. I think we could be in big trouble posting a winning score and diluting other areas of the team to pull together a make-shift fwd line which may not work.

I will only make one comment on this and that will be it.

let me make this very clear

Very aware of the abuse, trolling and baiting of the poster in question on the forum but death threats = can categorically say nothing was ever said to us about threats of any kind. If it had been and proof was provided then the person making the threats would have been banned without hesitation from this forum permanently . End of story

However, we didn't receive one word for anyone....today is the first time we've heard of it

We have said this so many times it isn't funny... if you have a problem with any poster then tell us (hello report to moderator function)and we will deal with it. Things as serious as threats don't get ignored. We have banned people for this type behaviour in the past so don't think we do nothing.

But again for the umpteenth time... we can't do anything if we don't know  :banghead

That's all

Now stick to the topic  >:(

Up to our mids tonight to provide enough supply for us to kick a winning score and lower their eyes to pick out our small forwards. We also need good games from both Nank and Soldo especially when they are each 'resting' up forward. They at least need to contest and bring the ball down to our smalls.

Also got a feeling Dusty will spend a lot of time tonight up forward with Dimma trying to isolate him in our F50. Have our quick smalls higher up so they can turn and sprint on goal.

Kicking straight is of course a must tonight. We can't afford to waste our chances.

It will be interesting to see what we try.

Agree that our small forwards might play higher up tonight.

I can see Dusty playing nearly the whole game in the middle, tasked with running the ball to 50 and taking a ping.

I can also see the possibility Lambert might actually play mainly as a deep forward, which might mean a run with role for someone on Ablett. I am thinking maybe McIntosh. No, I have not been drinking.

Also got a feeling Dusty will spend a lot of time tonight up forward with Dimma trying to isolate him in our F50. Have our quick smalls higher up so they can turn and sprint on goal.


It will be interesting to see what we try.

Agree that our small forwards might play higher up tonight.

I can see Dusty playing nearly the whole game in the middle, tasked with running the ball to 50 and taking a ping.

I can also see the possibility Lambert might actually play mainly as a deep forward, which might mean a run with role for someone on Ablett. I am thinking maybe McIntosh. No, I have not been drinking.
I'm guessing with Ablett out, Lambert now tags someone like Rischitelli.

Massive blow to GC, frees up our options.
Definitely. We've just got to make sure we aren't complacent (a la Saints game or 1st quarter last week). A forward line containing Lynch, Wright and Jack Martin could still hurt us on the scoreboard if our mids aren't switched on and allow the Suns too many open inside F50s even without Ablett playing.

Jackstar's sitting in Aisle 102 if anyone wants to meet him for a drink

Bit risky to share that with the info that has come to light tonight :lol
