He became Parker last week for me. Parker scored a season low 92. Not much consolation but the point is you didn't miss an epic score by holding him that extra week. You are now in the awkward position of trading him out the week before he plays though :/

Brett Deledio will be named by @Richmond_FC but not convinced he will play. Ivan Maric will return @FOXSportsNews
Dustin playing very average, has a BE over 160, and looks like he really misses Brett. Lids can't come back soon enough to boost Dusty's scores, but for how long, cause poor Deledio appears, most unusually for him, far more "fragile" these days.

Cats to welcome back talented trio for Power trip
Ben Guthrie April 21, 2016 11:20 AM

GEELONG is set to welcome back Corey Enright, Lincoln McCarthy and Shane Kersten for Saturday night's clash against Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval, Cats coach Chris Scott says.

Enright was 'managed' for last Saturday's game against Essendon, while the Cats took the opportunity to give McCarthy – who has had a history of long-term foot problems – a rest after he played the first three games of the season.

Kersten was a late withdrawal from the side that beat the Dons with a tight calf and was replaced by Jake Kolodjashnij.

"We'll definitely name both of them (Enright and McCarthy) in our squad, and barring any unforeseen circumstances they'll both play," Scott said.

"At this stage we're thinking, assuming he's fit and available, [Kersten] would come back into our team."

B Andrew Mackie, Harry Taylor, Lachie Henderson
HB Tom Ruggles, Tom Lonergan, Cameron Guthrie
C Steven Motlop, Patrick Dangerfield, Mitch Duncan
HF Josh Caddy, Daniel Menzel, Jimmy Bartel
F Cory Gregson, Tom Hawkins, Darcy Lang
FOL Rhys Stanley, Nakia Cockatoo, Mark Blicavs
I/C Jake Kolodjashnij, Zac Smith, Joel Selwood, Jordan Murdoch

3 must come out from there. Kolo and Murdoch for Kersten and McCarthy.
Who for enright? Either Ruggles from defence or Lang/Cockatoo/Menzel if they drop someone from another position.

KO'd Lion cleared to play

BRISBANE ruckman Stef Martin was observing a court trial on Monday as part of his law degree, just two days after being concussed by a brutal Steven May bump.

So Lions coach Justin Leppitsch expects his star bigman to be front and centre when Brisbane play the Western Bulldogs at Etihad Stadium this Saturday.

Great news I can sleep easy now

Hawthorn's undersized forward line could be without Ryan Schoenmakers for another two weeks, with the marking target still battling a "grumbly" groin.

Whatever is a grumbly groin ;)

Ruggles dropped would be really funny
Would certainly make the choice easier this week.
If he gets dropped to fit Enright in then I know he was the guy never to go with but if he stays despite Enright back I only see Bews pushing him out.
At this stage expecting Lang and Kardashian to make way for McCarthy and Enright.
