did Acres play last week? I can't remember seeing him!
he must be an "in"

DMack as emergency? I don't think so...
he played well in the last few games of 2016, but his only games this year were fumbly, confused and slow

how does Lonie stay in, after 4 clangers last week?
4 kicks, 4 handballs, so only 4 FOUR disposals in an entire game is rubbish.
Rubbish Lonie, Rubbish

Thought that it was odd that White on debut wasn't given a big media release. Then did some research and saw he played one game last year.

So it's basically another debut!

Why the F*** is there a 6.25 embargo on team release yet Channel 7 news are showing other rubbish??

Lonnie probably no worse than Jack Steven- too easily tagged and is basically contributing nothing.

Lonie still in is crazy

Stevens a big out

Otherwise changes are all good but why not give rice a run and make the appropriate team shuffles with the exclusion of Lonie?

AFL site shows Marshall drafted in Rookie Draft last year, first game this year.
What game did he play last year?

He was drafted at the end of 2016.

...edited for brevity
kosifantutti, this poster says Holler played last year. I am confused.

If our contested ball wasn't bad enough and now we lose Stevens

Would have preferred Armo in for Lonie - even half fit

Well time for Steven to pull his finger out - been cruisin since his return from injury

Weller too - no more excuses

Ugh! I didn't know Koby was injured. That's an annoying out for us.

Good to see Brandon White finally get a game this season, particularly after his excellent debut in the final round of last year. I was beginning to think he went AWOL.

Would love to see Maverick finally step it up. Lonie had also better start redeeming himself, or he can simply ship out by the end of the season.

Im aware i may be facing the firing line but ive really been eager to see Holmes get a run.
For no particular reason other than its a bit of a fairy-tale. American Lad come to live the dream.

Thats as far as much reasoning goes.

I am with you Dal. A couple of weeks ago he had 62 hit outs. the next week over 50. He is our best tap ruckman, and possible one of the best in the AFL. I would be playing him.

he played against Tigers last year, the game where Paddy broke collarbone.
Tony74, after the selection of Holmes, had said "raining, so around the ground marking not an issue"
in his comments on Holmes playing- i.e. Holmes not so good in the air- wet ball so no matter.

It's gonna rain in Adelaide, and see his hitouts in the above post.
So I fully agree wit ya on Holmes, shoulda brought him in :lol:

Lonie's selection is exactly what is wrong with this team, the coach obviously plays favourites instead of rewarding the blokes who have the form to warrant getting a game.

The way the big fella has been dominating the ruck at Sandy, he is possibly far more deserving to get a game than a few other blokes who have been treading water at AFL level for most of the season. If Longer was injured, I would say pick Jason in a heartbeat.

Remember James Gwilt playing one of his first (the first?) games in Adelaide and kicking a couple of goals and playing pretty damn well. Brandon White is same height but it seems 14kg lighter. Uncannily he comes from Dandenong which few realise is the most southern province of PNG and both are left footers. Wantok u play for good nau - great career ahead.
