i would like to see gault retained but the weather might also influence that. |
The vest will be gone in a few weeks. The AFL don't like being told what to do but in a few weeks they will state facts and figures and justify why there is no need. |

So, the move to the sub rule was a wrong one. Great. The ludicrous rule, introduced in 2011, cost us the 2011 flag once J-Pod went down.

i don't think it was the wrong one but its time has passed with the cap on rotations. when the rotations reduce from 120 to 80 next year there is even less of a case for the sub.

Given that MOORE has been good without being spectacular, I think we want him to play for our own selfish reasons rather than anything else.
The kid needs the opportunity to find his feet, and will then debut in his own time.
I don't see the need for him to be rushed in.
Let him dominate in 5-6 games in the VFL, and then give him a go. |

| Moore has been listed in our best 3 players in each of his games so far. As long as the club is confident that physically he's ready, then I say his form is certainly good enough to warrant a call up. |

I'm tipping Moore to debut as soon as this week or next.
Both big games for different reasons against a traditional rival.

I'm getting more confident about this game by the day.
After round 2 I was dreading this game, I thought we had no chance of beating an Essendon team that had just defeated the Hawks.
Fast forward to now, we are coming off a smashing of the Saints, which could have been even bigger if we kicked accurately up forward and around the ground.
The Bombers fell in against Carlton, CARLTON, they are shit, about St Kilda's level really.
Round 1 form = Essendon favour
Round 2 form = huge Essendon favour
Round 3 form = WE ARE BACK
We can win this now, even the conditions are going to suit, wet, windy and cold.
Witts and Adams in, Patty and Gault out, let's smash em. |

Would Bringing in Witts make us too Slow?
Play Moore I reckon as he can Rebound out of Defense

Playing Moore against Essendon would weaken us significantly. He's not ready for senior football yet, he probably won't be till next year, yet some want him to play against a side that beat Hawthorn 2 weeks ago?
Playing on Daniher or Carlisle up forward he'd be slaughtered, absolutely smashed, you just had to see McCartin last week to realise that. |
