    Roughead is getting ready to play with Willi (report from GVGjr), so maybe a late cahge, Everitt in Gilbee out.

      I just heard that Roughy has flown up to Sydney to play tonight. Don't know who to believe these days - I suppose we will just have to wait until Willy runs out at 1pm and the Dogs at 7.10.

        He is in casual gear here at the moment. The guys seemed surprised to see him. He is the only one not in a track suit. If he has left, he has just left.

          He was in Sydney yesterday. Why would they fly him back to Melbourne to just fly straight back?

            He was definitely in Sydney yesterday and trained well with the team. Training finished at 5.30pm. Not sure if he flew back this morning but doubt it.

              You might be in a better position to answer that but a big blond boy has just run onto the ground. He showed up in casual gear and initially every one seemed surprised to see him.

                  Looks like no emergencies in Sydney, very strange decision.

                    You could be right. They probably bought him up to see how Lake pulled up at training. When he trained well they probably decided to fly Roughie back to get game time, for a possible call up next week.

                        They just said on the ABC that Roughead flew up to Sydney but returned due to Bradshaw not playing.

                        Looks like Lake will play and Williams to help in the ruck.

                          Really hope Lake is right, would be crazy to risk him in a game where the four points are largely irrelevant.

                              Haha, I did! I just wish Dre was there to give us a bit more flexibility with Williams.

                              I have been critical of Williams this season but I must admit I have really liked his last few weeks. I also like his ruck work. Unlike most part timers he doesn't treat it as an out and out chore and seems really committed to it physically and mentally.

                                Dre is a little short for ruck work, whereas Williams has some size about him.
                                Talking about rucks, Roughead is playing foward in the first quarter at Willi, and kicked a nice goal.
