Changes for Wooden Spoon Game v Weagles

I have and apart from 67,he played full back till about 71,where he excelled in his new role at FF. Stand corrected if he came to Tigerland originally as a forward.One thing for sure he was a bloody good backman that got a new life upforward.Reckon Grimsey is a candidate for a FF role.
Sounds like your memory and knowledge is superior to mine.
I do remember the 67 side with him on the forward line and a regular goal kicker.
 
From the extended squad; Id have the 4 highlighted as the 4 interchange.

Interchange from:Tyler Sonsie40Jack Graham34Mykelti Lefau42
Sam Naismith24Kane McAuliffe28Ben Miller46
Hugo Ralphsmith13Sam Banks41

Sub: I think it'll be Sonsie or Graham

spot on, Banks not much game time previous, Sam for Mykelti (have options with Toby in the forward line), plus two proven ruckmen may be the thing we need to control the centre), pending on Dow, Jack may be in.

And yet we are currently $1.32 favs.

Crazy stuff. The Eagles at $3.41 on their home deck are exceptional value IMO.

yeah they will be setting themselves for this one, they'd be crazy not too with our medical room.

on the other hand, we play WA very well.

Those odds are way out of whack. I suspect they will be much more even closer to game time.

At those odds a punter would be daft not to have a little sniff at the Weagles. They had a fair crack in last week at Reacher round, playing on their home deck this week n we've been hammered by injuries everywhere.
It's all very well having another soldier to step up n fill a gap here n there but when half your army is dead n you've sunk to manning the walls with stuffed dummies it's more than likely you'll get invaded big time.
 
Richmond midfielder Jack Ross is set to miss up to eight weeks, after scans revealed a stress fracture in his foot.

Now going by Caesar report Taranto limp arm using his jumper like a sling
The $3.40 on offer for Wetcoke is looking good

I dont think the WEagles at any price against any opposition could be good value. Something has gone horribly wrong at that footy club.

Sonsie, Graham, McA, Miller and either Lefau (most likely) or Naismith will play. VFL play tomorrow so we will find out more then, but it wouldnt surprise me if Naismith is the travelling sub, and possibly Ralphsmith. Lefau and Banks need to play somewhere, especially with byes next week for AFL and VFL.
 
Bit of nostalgia. 37 years ago this weekend missus & I trooped off to Subiaco Oval as it was Eagles first AFL game & against the Tigers. Tiger supporters were few & far to be seen. 3/4 time Tigers up by 5 goals & I said to the missus 'Tigers need the next one ". She said "why ?" It did not take long to realize Why as 15 minutes later Eagles were in front & Tigers lost the game by about 10 points.. BOG Mr Magic himself Maurice Rioli. Hope history does not repeat it self on Sunday as going to the game with a son.

Banks was relegated to the VFL drills today, so unless the late Taranto injury changes anything he won't be on the plane, Hugo trained fully and will be an in IMO

If there was an analogy of the week award you would have to book in extra hard waste collections.
