      Morris in boots. Suckers in runners.

      Just an observation.

        Suckers also newly shorn (I presume some players obsess with how they'll look in GF photos should they win)

            I didn't want to start a new thread for this - but if anyone reading would like two free tickets to the FOOTY SHOW GF tonight - and can pick them up from Seddon this afternoon - then they are all yours.

              I am guessing it must be more than 10K, closer to 15K?!. Electrify atmosphere. With my short time following the dogs, I have never seen so many supporters at the Whitten Oval.

                Welp, that's that then.

                Afraid Wallsy's forthrightly put a line through Suckers' name for selection because you'd have to be "crazy" to consider a bloke who doesn't participate fully in "the main training session" before the big dance.

                Footscrazy perhaps.

                  Didn't look good just walking and bouncing the ball in his runners. he has been in and out of the team in the second half of the season with the Achilles. They do take a while to heal.

                    Suckers pre-Achilles was a good contributor. Post-Achilles he's played some shockers, including what may be the worst game from any individual Bulldog this year (Saints loss). If he's not 100%, he is a huge risk.

                      Damn sight more there today than the early 80s.
                      But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                                Like the Mills and McVeigh ins. I read it as they're worried and would play those 2 at 70%, than their second string players.
