This weeks bye / Coburg
« on: July 29, 2011, 02:36:03 PM »
What is stopping us putting the maximum amount of AFL players in Coburg this week to get confidence and further development.

Why wouldn't you as many players from our best 22 as possible?

Send Jack back there and get some confidence and kick a bag?
Send Dusty back there to do the same?
Go Tigers!

Because they are not allowed to!

You need to get special permission from the AFL and be able to justify why you want to play certain players.

Clubs wont get permission to play players who've played the entire AFL season so far

Those two boys need a rest more than anyone else on the list IMO!

they probably need a rest more than a VFL game anyway.

isnt there an injury cloud over jack?

Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."
