If De Koning holds first ruck then he becomes a very interesting proposition.
SDK Will be a close watch.
Think everyone can put a line through Saad now, 52% owned.
Baz hasn’t been in my side for several weeks was more than happy to anti pod him and this is why, will be interesting to see if more people fade or not.
O’sullivan named BP and knevitt onball are huge ticks.
Saad?
Saad el-hawli, GKMC.
Yes I also took Smith out a while ago. Geelong ‘manage’ players more than anyone and think he’s a prime candidate to be managed
I couldn’t track down why he isn’t playing though. Shame.
Has everything to play for. Spat the dummy a little at the Doggies. Got to the club he wanted, gonna get somewhat of a midfield role.
Was looking forward to owning him.
And, yeah, El Hawli looks like a downgrade target. Reid D8.
Eyes on Humphries and Stewart with Holmes firmly OB now too.
Ah. There it is. Courtesy of CT:
Geelong: Bailey Smith wont play tomorrow night after a light week with a strapped knee after a knock against Hawthorn
Yep. Pass. Into the bin with Mills, Richards, Sinclair, Daicos and Flanders lmao.
Arghhhhh C’mon GD not our boy Ed! I promise I won’t call you a bin scab if you pull Richards out and give him a second chance! Haha
I’m a sell out lmao, I know.
