[one-eyed]

So that's two changes ...

In: White, Browne

Out: Hislop, Post

[tiger101]

I wonder if this means Hislop has got his papers stamped.

[Go Richo 12]

I wonder if this means Hislop has got his papers stamped.

I wonder if this means Tuck has got his papers stamped?

[eliminator]

He just won't bring in Tuck despite his excellent form. I think Hardwick won't play him this year and will delist him at the end of the year. Glad they dropped Hislop. I hope White can spark something. Grabbing at straws bringing Browne in.

[one-eyed]

Gold Coast Suns side for those interested. Ablett has been named.

B: Josh Toy, Nathan Bock, Rory Thompson
HB: Joel Wilkinson, Campbell Brown, Jarrod Harbrow
C: Trent McKenzie, Jared Brennan, Harley Bennell
HF: Daniel Stanley, Tom Lynch, Gary Ablett
F: Charlie Dixon, Josh Fraser, Dion Prestia
Foll: Zac Smith, David Swallow, Michael Rischitelli
I/C: Hayden Jolly, Matt Shaw, Rex Liddy, Sam Iles

Emg: Maverick Weller, Steven May, Seb Tape

[Hard Roar Tiger]

Gus not get a game? Dominates Bellchamber but no....
How many games has White missed with his knee?
Didn't he get that injury playing reserves?
So he gets dropped, injures his knee in the 2nds  then comes straight back in?

And Browne?

We win the 2nds by 10 goals but no-one played well enough to warrant a game?

They've lost the plot IMO

[sugark]

SURELY WE MUST BE TANKING........ALA CARLTON WHEN THEY GOT JUDD....IS THERE SOMETHING IN THE WIND?????

[torch]

Why isn't Morton in the team?

[tiger101]

I wonder if this means Hislop has got his papers stamped.

I wonder if this means Tuck has got his papers stamped?

I was saying it more for the reason his being dropped for players coming back in not for another player coming in and having a go for a few weeks to see if he makes it or not.

What are you thinking?

[Ox]

SURELY WE MUST BE TANKING........ALA CARLTON WHEN THEY GOT JUDD....IS THERE SOMETHING IN THE WIND?????

if not,we're being coached by stuffwits  

[The Big Richo]

If I were Tuck I would have ordered a truck of chicken poo and had it dumped at the door of Punt Road on hearing that team.

[TigerLand]

Few things:

- Post being dropped is perplexing. I thought he showed some signs, and even Hardwick gave him a wrap in his email. Quite strange.
- Graham clearly is finished. Wont play another game for the club.
- Hislop papers are most likely stamped, which I'm sorry to say for Tom, is a good thing for the club.
- Tuck is about the stiffiest bloke in the world. Wrong place wrong time, would get a game in any side outside the top 4 easily, except for a young Gold Coast.

Interesting decisions. At the end of the day they are irrelevant to our cause. The biggest decisions of the last decade come list lodgement, trade period and draft day this year.

The can play who the want as long as they make tough correct calls on those key dates.

I suppose they decided whites pace was more needed than tucks grunt against a side made up largely of youngsters, but stuff me sideways
