Interesting that we've changed to a two tall forward line. Clearly we're going to trial it for now against bottom 8 opposition. I'd assume one will play deep and the other high up near the 50.

Happy to see Coffield out for the Saints. One of their few who has played well this year.

True Lebowski and even we tried to poach him not so long ago. However, Armitage was terrible last week against the Pies. Age and injuries looked to have caught up with him as he was very slow and continually got caught and turned over the footy. That's why the Saints have dropped him.

Reckon Butler survived because Castagna is injured

Got to be the only reason

Butler and Mac very lucky. Would have given Stengle a chance before Higgins. Rapt that Menadue is in hopefully he makes that wing position his own, can be an awesome line breaker with his speed.

Miles is stiff again. What does he need to do to get a gig? Is Conca a better player than him? I don’t think so and I’d take Miles ahead of him every time.

I think Macintosh is really lucky to still be playing seniors.

I also would’ve liked to see Stengle ahead of Higgins also just to mix it up and have a good look at what Stengle can do in the seniors.

We've made a late change to our team for tomorrow's #AFLTigersSaints clash with Brandon Ellis coming in for Dylan Grimes. Tyson Stengle is now one of the four emergencies.

BEllis tank will hopefully allow him run all the way to Metricon come season's end.... :shh
Just been told he's a certainty to return this weekend  :shh

Did quiz my source about this when Brando was named emergency last night. They responded with ';)'

Figured we'd keep it a surprise to keep the Saints unprepared but probably best to give them a heads up on the friday so they know what's coming for them tomorrow :shh

Wouldn't surprise me if they try to injure him to stop his influence. The kid is hungry :shh

Just the threat of contact is usually enough to stop him.... :shh

  • You have to think anyway, so why not think big? DT
Show some respect re B. Ellis. He is a premiership player, works hard and has a lot of positive attributes.
