    Really makes a farce of the VFL finals when we rest 2 and promote another 3. Clearly our eyes were looking ahead to the AFL final next week.

          I'd normally go to the effort but our selection process for the seniors largely ignores VFL form and it's more focused on form displayed on the training track. My guess is just the seniors guys coming back and perhaps Campbell.

            So who do we play now next week. Im assuming we would now host a semi final at the Whitten Oval after losing the qualifying final although Collingwood and Essendon hosting there finals at North Port Oval.

              Does anyone know when our game will be next weekend? I am flying over and hoping to be able to do the double (assuming they won't be at the same time).

                It will be at North Port. I'll try and do a search.

                  How did Wilbur go? I know he has the mobility issues but is he our best tap ruckman to give our mids first use.

                      We were in demand across our midfield and Will was barely solid. Overall it was a lack lustre performance aside from a promising start.

                      First time in a long time that I had had enough by 3 quarter time and decided to head home. Both Russell and Austin hurt their shoulders early in the first and whilst they both returned with new strapping it limited their effectiveness. Ayce was tried both forward and back but really couldn't get into the game unlike the previous week.

                      It was a game where I struggled to find any standouts amongst our listed players and as such I couldn't justify calling up any of Jong, Darley, Talia, Dale, Fuller or Will.

                      Seeing big Tom Boyd (and Hrovat) watching on from the sidelines was disappointing and no Tom Campbell in sight.
                      Did I miss something in the lead up to this game regarding an injury to TBoyd ?

                          We'll be playing Essendon next Saturday at North Port at 11:40.
                          That's a double header with a seriously long afternoon pub session.

                              Timeslot would be to cater for channel 7.
