    I think its reasonable to expect Hargrave to get a game this week. We're not going to be a worse side with Shaggy in the team this week - and there has been plenty of opportunities for young players throughout the year - and will be again on Sunday.

    I'm glad Shaggy hasn't pushed for a further year. He has bowed out - possibly on advice from the club that it was time - and it would be good to see him have one last game in the colours.

    (And with Shaggy - you never know - he might just belt someone!).
    Ha Ha! I was actually thinking the exact same thing.

      Gets the red mist does old Shaggy. Never forget the game he came back from his ankle and slammed a goal home from way outside the 50. Love it

        Interesting that there hasn't been a comment on this thread for well over 24 hours - probably the longest stretch in my 4+ years on here for a game MC thread before a Friday

          The silence is deafening.

          Probably an indication that people are already mentally over this season, and moving toward the next one.

            Or that we have so few players available that the team pretty much picks itself.

                I'll have a stab at the team, trying to take the injuries into account.

                  With a draft position at stake if we win the game do you think we are more likely to include younger players? and maybe try Panos and/or Hill?

                  If Hooper plays on Jonathan Brown then i'll definately be suss that the coaches are tanking.

                    Given the way Brisbane slaughtered us at Etihad earlier in the season, do we REALLY need to even think about throwing a game (tanking)?

                    Having said that, I am yet to see clear examples on why picks 5 and 6 will end up better players than say 6 or 7, would it really matter either way?

                    I'll be rocking up to the Gabba on Sunday arvo desperate to see a win! As a passionate supporter I couldn't do it any other way.

                      nice. Like. This is actually a pretty strong team. Brisbane will have their hands full. If you had said on here last year, DA would be our full forward, would have told me to go have my head read.

                          Would love to see Panos have a shot at it but I think we'll go with this:

                          Int: Cooney, Smith, Jong, Veszpremi (Sub)

                          I think it'll be Vez's last game for us.

                            Haha is this one last tease for Panos? And why Vez over Sherman?

                              If that is the case I would be disappointed that he gets a game.

                              I am disappointed anyway that he is even being considered.
