By comparison, did you see Hawkins on the news at training? Both calves strapped with bandages, could barely walk, named to play and will probably kick a bag.

Just chatting with geelong mate of mine who is all over late outs.

Reckons both Hawkins and SDK are 50-50.

Durdin in, George Out is an interesting move.

Expectation:  Curnow and Fisher to spend less time forward and more on ball.  Will only help us.  Fisher is way better further up the ground.

I liken that to choosing between a kick in the nuts or a hot stick in the eye.

I was confident over the weekend, the confidence eroded away today when the selection news came out.

It's  a sad state of affairs that it's come to this. Bigfooty and Facebook are now the go to pages for injury news. ::)

I thought Vossy was very open about Hewett’s chances of playing.   No ducks or drakes were within cooee.

Backs: Nic Newman  Lewis Young  Lachie Cowan
Half-backs:  Sam Docherty  Jacob Weitering  Mitch McGovern
Centreline:  Blake Acres  Patrick Cripps  Ed Curnow
Half-forwards:  Jack Martin  Zac Fisher  Jack Silvagni
Forwards:  Corey Durdin  Charlie Curnow  Harry McKay
Followers:  Tom De Koning  Adam Cerra  Matthew Kennedy
Interchange:  Ollie Hollands  Jesse Motlop  Matthew Owies  Adam Saad
Emergencies:  Josh Honey  Lochie O'Brien  Marc Pittonet  Lachie Plowman

I am surprised and disappointed that none of our down players from last week have been dropped.
I am happy to see Corey Durdin in, assuming he is 100 %. He hasn't played yet.
I find leaving out Pittonet very difficult to understand. Geelong are vulnerable to a top ruckman, and we haven't include our best tap ruck.
Live Long and Prosper!

No Walsh and no Hewett will be a bridge too far IMO. Nathan Williamson a massive in for the Cats.

I think the umpiring has been of a very good std in rnd 1, the extra ump seems to have worked pretty well week one (I went to our game and watched almost every other game on TV). I personally don't subscribe to the notion of umpires favouring teams (despite that horrendous game Williamson had against us v West Coast all those years ago).
