Apparently wasn’t sore thurs or Friday but is sore now. Yeah I call *smile*

There must be somethign to it, I don't imagine Dusty would miss Shed's 250th if he had a choice.

Rather him miss tomorrow as opposed to next week.

But geez they will have their tails up now knowing we are without Martin and Cotchin.

Very dangerous game now its going to be a hard slog.

Always had a bed feeling about this game. It’s got loss written all over it, Carlton will have set themselves for this game imo. It’s the scalp Teague needs. He will have them absolutely primed.

If they beat us he will definately get the gig they will have to give him the job the media will be in a frenzy they'll be circle jerking themselves into a coma if the Blues turn us over tomorrow.

That's footy speak for "We've got this game. Let's give him a rest". Hope they're right
A mate at work and I used to joke about seeing players missing due ‘general soreness’, it’s code for we need the rest this bloke before big games, it’s related to what was called ‘the Essendon flu’ back in Sheedy’s days.

He’s been virtually BOG the last 3 games. Not sure you need to rest players when they’re on a roll. Must be something in it.

Out: Butler, Soldo
In: Stack, Nankervis

Stack goes back, Baker goes forward.
Chol gets a tap on the shoulder and a reminder that he's not a starting 18 player, whilst Soldo keeps playing a whole game at VFL. If Chol chokes, Soldo comes in the week after.
I'm still holding this line at least until Monday.

GWS lost last night so top 4 all but locked away?
Far from it. The Scum are only a game behind with better percentage and 3 very winnable games to come.

Last night was a good result for us but we still need to win every game at this stage to guarantee top 4.

I’m a huge fan of Ross but he’s played half a VFL game in about 12 weeks. Also it was a serious foot injury which has to have a major impact on fitness levels. It’s a big ask for a first year player.

Pretty surprised by this decision.

Odds on Carltank went from over $6 down to $4:60 with Dusty out. Bookies got a little nervous. lol.
