Just out of interest, ons (and any other Port fans), who do you think the 12 will be to face Box Hill?
You have a really good list to choose from there. Guys like Harding, Jez Clayton and co.
Tough question Matty.. 17 into 12. Depending on the fitness of McIntosh who hasnt played since the middle of the season, and Trotter who hasnt played since Round 18. Can they afford to play them in a knock-out final? I dunno.
I wonder if they will leave out Shane Clayton in favour of giving finals experience to a younger player.
Shane Harvey seems to be a little out of favour.
Not sure who the other one to miss out might be.
It's going to be a hard call leaving two guys out ons. I'm thinking they will leave Kris Shore out but the other one is going to be a huge call. I reckon they'll have to play Perry for his size but that means leaving out a Clayton ( Shane) or a Grima or even a Harding perhaps ??? And what about Trotter ? Is he a chance ???
Come on ons , give us the goss ?? I can tell you that Shane Crawford will be snuck in for Box Hill , along with possible comebacks for Dougie Scott and Tim Boyle !!!
Hehe... even if I did know I would probably be guarded about telling you :)
I wish I had my sarcasm detector with me today, because I seriously can't tell!
:P
Could you imagine! :wink:
Well if Rico can't be trusted (no surprises there :) Who do you think will be picked in The 'Stangers 12 AFL players Matty?
You show me yours and I'll show you mine. :wink: :lol: :lol:
lol! I reckon both clubs will be playing mind games.. and the named sides on Thursday won't line up as named (do they ever in the VFL?)
