Team - Rd4 vs Brisbane

Re: Team - Rd4 vs Brisbane

Maybe the whole idea of naming Johnno as an emergency is so that Brisbane are forced to plan for the event that he does come in. This obviously means more effort for them in looking at match ups and structures, and doesn't hurt us at all as we shouldn't need to make any late changes anyway.

I don't like the idea of Addison tagging an outside type of player - he's far too slow.
I'm not really sure what role he'll play - perhaps half back, but I'd have preferred Wood in the team personally.

I hope Dylan makes the best of his opportunity of course, but he makes me very nervous.

He hasn't been listed to play for Williamstown so he must have picked up an injury at training (he wasn't listed as being injured earlier in the week)

My brother's wife's cousin overheard a guy at the supermarket say that Johnson is playing... That's good enough for me!!

Name names!!

Could it be that BJ goes out in similar fashion to Westy? (Nagging injuries early in the season)

Fingers crossed.

Moles I think is more a link up player who can kick goals , think Addison is better tagging.

Agreed. But as a tagger you don't want him making ball control mistakes under pressure.

Re: Team - Rd4 vs Brisbane

Been thinking about why they would name him and the only reason that seems to be logical is this one.

He was about 90% chance of playing but they have just taken a cautious approach and have him ready to play next week but as captain he would be flying up anyway so instead of bringing up another player in case some one is injured in the warm up they have johnno named as emergency and he is ready to play just in case

Hargrave out? or who?

It could be Hargrave or Hargraves or Hargreaves. TCD'll know.

Seriously though, I just can't see why they would bring him back for a game which involves 4 hours round trip on a plane.
Let him rest another week and make sure he's right.

Re: Team - Rd4 vs Brisbane

Have to agree with most, I think it would be unwise to bring Johnno back with a 4 hour round plane trip. Perhaps it is just a furphy to make Brisbane plan for the possible inclusion? Good to see Addison get another chance - hope he has a good one!
