Haven't had a chance to look at this weeks scores closely, looking okay but not great. Might great worry was fielding Hayes against Goldy which looks a valid worry but with English missing what do you do. NOD to Lloyd happy enough with, was what I expected. If English misses another I think that'll be the final nail in my coffin. Rioli JR a worry, Rosas a worry and cash gen could be a real issue from here on in.

1252/12 with Greene, Cogs, Whitfield, Brodie, Miller, Cripps, Hewett, Oliver, Petracca, Preuss to come. Big Sunday I'll miss flying again.

None of the emergencies are playing for GWS reserves against Southport today, with a couple recalled from QLD back to Sydney yesterday.

There has been illness through the GWS team. Himmelberg and Ward were particularly noted with Ricardi and Bruhn as replacements. None of those are classic relevant. The interesting observation is that Flynn wasn't sent back to get form.

Media and PR campaign.

Not only did the club lose the best ball winner the Club paid another club to take him. To think Nathan had nothing to do with this defies logic.

So many employees at the Pies Footy Department. And you still get salery cap issues.

At least the pies now playing a improved brand of footy.

Isn't Ned now working for the AFL.

For all those upset about fielding Rioli for his 7 , spare a thought for those who own Draper.

6 from 73% game time

3 Round Average of 97 coming into this round

He had a shocker. Tried hard, couldn't get into it. 9 clangers. 6 Frees Against. Ball bounces higher in the centre at SCG, and he couldn't adjust. Kept running underneath it. When he did get it he coughed it up in new and inventive ways. As did most of the team. At least he kept trying though, which you could only say for about 4 or 5 of the 22.

Was watching the Crows v Lions game , and briefly checking scores on FanFooty (been tracking Merrett) , quite like Draper , still raw and has some rough edges but have to admire the way he plays his football , would be given him a major leadership role soon as.

Yeah, he's a very good character to have in your team, and develop into a gun I reckon.

Merrett tried hard too, but wasn't himself after Rowbottum got him high. Took a long time to get up, and was off his game for the rest of the night. Fumbling, missing targets. Not like him at all.
