Match Committee - Round 19, 2017 vs Essendon

[Ozza]

I'd be hoping we can again go in with minimal changes. I think we benefitted from a stable line up. Ideally, Redpath only gets a fine, and therefore Morris as the only 'out'.

Who would you bring in for Morris?

I'll answer that once I know the outcome of Redpath and Hooker's respective MRP's!!

Of course, Redpath gets one week and Hooker cleared.

I just read on twitter that Red gets a 'financial sanction'. Good result if true. Big Red was terrific on Saturday. Fancy a Bulldog tall forward taking 11 marks!!

EDIT: Scratch that - separate twitter post saying Red gets one week.....the financial sanction must have been for something separate.

That was only for the wrestling act on Lynch, not for the jumper punch unfortunately. Kind of feels like Double Jeopardy here for Red.

Typical.

In that case - I guess Cloke has to come in. Probably inclined to bring in Fletcher Roberts given the size of Essendon's forward line.
But I suspect Bevo will resist the temptation and back us to go in small.

WE need Tommy Boyd back

You would taking 11 marks playing on Trent McKenzie.

Ahh come on Mantis - you've got to give Big Red some credit sometimes!! I know you're not a fan - but Red was good - including going back for small parts of the game.

Give me a spell.. He was playing on an under-sized opponent who was only playing because all there other decent defenders were out.. When Redpath can beat a decent opponent I'll give him credit, but I might have to wait a little while.

Apparently Clay has also been offered a one match sanction by the VFL.

Name another forward that has taken double figures in marks on our list this season? Red has done it twice, and took 9 marks another time.

Unfortunately we have 3 whipping boys on this forum Ozza. Honey, Red and Suckers. Irrespective of how well they play.
