Re: Opposition Chatter - Season 2017
There might be some very good news re: Kennedy and Hurn:
WEST Coast coach Adam Simpson was "a bit surprised" Will Schofield was offered a one-match ban for striking Clayton Oliver, and says the Eagles are weighing-up challenging the sanction.
Meanwhile, dual Coleman medallist Josh Kennedy (calf/Achilles) has been ruled out of Saturday's crunch away game against the Western Bulldogs, and skipper Shannon Hurn is also doubtful after a heavy hit from Jack Viney.

He only knocked him into the middle of next week. If it had been the week after he would have been in real trouble.
He deserved five weeks at least.
Re: Opposition Chatter - Season 2017
Matt Priddis didn't travel with Eagles. Sharod Wellingham or debutant Luke Partington likely to take his place.
Lycett also a big chance to play. That means they will be super tall (Lycett/Vardy/Petrie)

Depends on what you classify as a bag. I've always said four, others insist it's five.

There was once a time when I would have nominated 6 as a bag but players kicking big totals is as rare as North winning close games these days. Although Jack Riewoldt kicked ten a couple of years ago.
I'd say 5 is a bag these days, maybe even 4 could be considered one.

Tom Lynch (Crows) and Kyle Hartigan won't be playing

He's had such a good season, cruel for the player.

I was happy for him to miss 1 week but that is just terrible for him. He is a gun.
