Meanwhile, over at Essendon. ....

On confirmation of Marlion's suspension.....
My sources confirm news was quickly relayed to the playing group for their bedtime routine. ..

Out... Lights On
In.... Lights Off

Going to be a much weaker team this week.

We will only have two players out, Balta and Pickett, I hope Graham gets up, he sounded quietly confident on CH 7 news yesterday.
Pickett who I rate highly can be replaced. Balta on the other hand is a bigger loss and hopefully only misses a few games. Luckily the bye comes RD 12

Gibcus for Balta
Edwards for Pickett

I would bring in Tarrant for Biggy but some have said dimma has stated biggy will get another game this week. Guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Hypothetically speaking if Graham doesnt get up with his sore toe, as much as I would love for Stack to come in for Dreamtime.
These 4 were better, Dow 23 disposals and 11 clearances, Collier Dawkins 19 disposals and 6 tackles, Ross 22 disposals and 4 clearances and Ralphsmith 22 disposals


Updated - May 17, 2022

Probable

Josh Gibcus – AFL Heath & Safety Protocols

Questionable

Jack Graham - Toe

Unavailable

Noah Balta - Hamstring - Medium-term

Robbie Tarrant (10 disposals, two marks, two rebound-50s)

"He had a really different mindset in terms of his ball use and that helped our offense. He was a really solid contributor down back in the first half, but finished up at half-time in preparation for coming weeks."


Lock him on for this week as Baltas replacement.

I agree with your changes Spook except I think they give Gibcus a run in the two's after just coming out of ISO for Covid.
 
Forgot this game was on with all the crap in the media.

K. Sink come in for essendon this week no? With a barrage of negative analysis there will be a MASSIVE Essendon statement Saturday night right? It going to be a very interesting first 10 min that may set the tone of the game.

Man if Stacky cant get on the emergencies list ahead of Aarts, Banks and Clarke for DREAMTIME WEEK he's in some Barney.

What are they doing with him?

I would've rolled the dice on Syd for this game, regardless with the big stage, Dreamtime and a side that hates it tough.

Perfect set up for Syd to step up.
