VFL Rd 12 Sandringham Vs Footscray ( radio)

[Rocket]

Just checked Zebra twitter

Dunstan 32 disposals- 2 goals
Rice, White & Acres 25 disposals

Fair performance by Acres if reports true he played only a half

[Rocket]

Sorry Rice 30 disposals ... got to be close !

their twitter said Blake Acres got 15 touches in the first qtr.

Was he rested because he might come in on Friday night, 6 day break?
Who gets dropped for him then?

According to the team list on VFL website, Weller did not play either.

The coach said he was sore during the press conference

Weller - that ankle problem? Let's hope that ankle is what has kept him below his best,
with some proper treatment he can be the bull that we saw in 2016

I've been very tough on Weller but I reckon his best is exactly what we're missing. Give him some time off, get him right and bring him back better than ever

Rice must be really close to a debut.
Maybe give Joey a one game rest and give Rice a go.
Acres a certainty to return if he had 25 in a half.

You clearly do not like Joey. Joey was in our top 2 players against Richmond and is in top form at present.

If we want to play finals we MUST beat Richmond. Joey will not be rested, managed etc....

We just beat Richmond.

Why not rest Joey against a s*** side so he is fresh for August-September?
How do you know if he will be rested or managed? Are you privy to his private medical information?
What absolute rot.

So Essendon is a s*** side???? Ridiculous statement, they are right on our hammers and we cannot afford to lose this one. Joey will play unless he is injured.

The Dons have a better % than us, and are only 2 games adrift. They have beaten the Cats, WCE, Power and barely lost to the Swans a fortnight ago. So I am bemused that you can be so dismissive of them.

Err, cough, cough. You were the one saying to rest him and not I. I was saying that he must be played.

The dopers is another "season defining" game. We've got seven of them to go, plus finals. We can just about put the dopers out of the running with a win next week. I was more confident of beating Richmond than I am of the dopers, who even when they were rubbish last year, pushed us all the way. Their pacey, running players always seem to trouble us. Joey will be crucial next week. His form since the Dermie rocket has been excellent. I still think Armo might come back to be our Keating, the September specialist.

A mate said that Holmes got about 150 hit outs- might be exaggerating a bit, but must have done something right against the Dogs.

[saintbrat]

Jason was highest hitout winner from the weekend despite the loss

[Jacks Back]

Is that Eli?
