Has been named as a half forward, so it looks like he will get a full game.

Pretty lousy photo, couldn't even get the whole team in the picture. Quite a few of them not even looking at the camera!!

Billings out with shin soreness apparently, but great to see Minchy get a run. Hope he makes the most of his opportunity and string a few games together.

Good to see Acres in the starting 22 again. Looks like Richo will keep him in the team permanently now. Hopefully he can stay injury free.

Murdoch contracted till the end of 2016.

In: Minchington, Weller, Gilbert

Out: Schneider, Sinclair, Shenton

It would be great to see a three pronged attack of White, Bruce and McCartin once Roo retires or even before he retires, but at this stage it doesn't look like it's going to happen because of the uncertainty of White. Like everyone else I'd like to know what has happened to Spencer. After getting a ...

Thanks for the Grandstand link re-Richo Bratty.

I'm definitely a lot more wiser now than what I was before hearing Richo speak and a lot more appreciative of the work he does both on and off the field.

I just want to see the boys give a good four quarter effort. If we can manage to do that, then who knows, an upset victory could be on the cards.

Would love to see a Leuenberger/Hickey match up if Leuey plays at FF.

Anything Hicks can do to spoil Leuey celebrating his 100th game with a win would go a long way to help us beating Brissy on Sunday.

Really looking forward to this game as I think we are a real chance to beat them this week.

In a rebuild you have to play the quality kids often. You can't just pick your best 22 every week as the young talent misses out on being exposed to the speed delta that exists between AFL and VFL and they dont develop i.e. every team Ross Lyon has ever coached! The comments made about Schneider ar...

So f*****g happy. What a great comeback!!

Armo brilliant all day with 45 disposals.

Very sad news.

Condolences to all family and friends.

Playing in the backline this year might just prolong his career with us if he keeps playing well.

Maybe,Goddard,Lee for Fisher,Dempster is what they are looking at,doen the track

Reckon you might be right Berg.

Really strange seeing Lee named at fullback.

The Doggies are on top of the world at the moment and our effort last week was more than encouraging. Both clubs have around 30,000 members, so there's no reason there shouldn't be at least 30K plus there this week, especially if Roo and Joey are back in.

I reckon there will be 31,199 there.

Wouldn't boo him myself, but I can understand why people do.....each to their own!!

Just the one change I think.....Roo in, Hickey out.

Would like to see all our youngsters get another game, so unfortunately Joey will have to come back through the ressies, so I agree with saintbob on this one.

This is the banner in question.......

I'd like to see Newnes get the captaincy this week. If not Newnes, then I would give it to Armo again.

I remember when I first saw him in an intra-club match at Seaford in 2013 . He took a couple of great marks that day and kicked a couple of goals through memory. At the time I thought "wow"......this kids going to be good , but unfortunately, apart from a few good VFL games and a fairly de...
