    I will they will go with Wallis, Richards, Biggs and Daniel.
    I tend to think that is the right mix but there could be a question mark on Daniel in if that is the case I'm not sure if its Boyd, Honeychurch or Dickson. It would surprise me if Webb made it.

      It's a surprise that we aren't as focused as we should. Mistakes like that make you question if we have either the right level of professionalism or enough resources.

        The AFL make it up as they go along.

        AFL regulation 16.3 states there's an exception for a club practice match.


        "A person who is suspended or disqualified may participate in any Pre-Season Competition Match or Club Practice Match unless otherwise directed by the Commission or the body that has imposed the suspension or disqualification," the regulation reads as of March 2017.
        but, it turns out because there was a senior match on that day, they change the rule. How the hell can the club know what is going on.

          Especially when Red was allowed to play in the AFLX.

            It's frustrating because we couldn't put a foot wrong late in 2016 - our injury management was perfectly timed to the minute, and we even nailed the little things like taping Jong's good shoulder in the VFL GF.

            We've let Redders down massively on this one. Laughable that we're blaming others for our own basic incompetence and lack of due diligence.

                    There normally is a tent outside gate 1. But it would be best to try contact the club to confirm.
                    They've done studies you know, 60% of the time, it works every time!

                      I can't be 100% sure but we run membership tents at the grounds until about the half way mark of the season. Perhaps the shop at the Whitten oval is open tomorrow and you could pop in or give them a call.
                      I'd bet good money that you wont have a problem on Sunday but get there early.

                          I am certain there will be a membership tent, the club sells a shedload of memberships at the first couple of games. I'm just as certain there will be a delay of some sort with processing them on the day because that is a bit of a tradition too. I'd leave plenty of time.

                          Or better still go online and sign up via the membership portal and I'm sure you will be able to print out tickets that you can use to just scan in on Sunday and you could save yourself a bit of time. I can attest to how frustrating it is standing outside the ground waiting for them to process your membership while listening to the first siren sound. I missed most of the first quarter against Brisbane a few years ago (Bob Murphy was stand in captain and slotted a goal from the boundary just as I got into the ground.) and swore never again. I'm a bulldog for life now, the money is just taken from my account and the first I know about my membership each year is the notice we get in November asking if I want a cap or a beanie ( which they usually *!*!*!*! up but that is another story for a different day.)
                          They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                                Wallis and Boyd are certainly struggling to get a spot.
