Another great team, instead of the embarrasment of defeat, roo boys you should just forfeit and score a zero. Clearly your percentage is too high.

Though I can't be too disappointed, registering another score of over 150 in a loss, I am pointing my finger at Alwyn Davey who let his team down. Replacing him is Charlie Dixon making his debut, in the last round of the year, and will be the 25th player to represent Seoul this year. Joining him on the forward line is Vice-Captain Patrick Dangerfield, veteran Luke Power and also-on-thin-ice Hayden Ballantyne.

Terrific effort by the midfield last week, and is unchanged with Griffen-Kelly-Bolton-Steven-Gibbs-Anthony proving a hand combo. Griffen needs to lift more consistently, and Gibbs is averaging 20 points less than I expected at the start of the year. Stephen Coniglio is the emergency, while Tom Scully is no where to be seen. Ben McEvoy continues his very important role as #1 ruck.

Deledio leads the team and defence, with Jason Gram and Chris Yarran holding there spots. Matthew Scarlett returns from suspension - in what could be his last Worlds game ever - replacing the unlucky Nick Maxwell.

D: B Deledio (Capt), M Scarlett, J Gram, C Yarran

M: R Griffen, J Kelly, J Bolton, J Steven

R: B McEvoy

F: P Dangerfield (V-Capt), L Power, C Dixon, H Ballantyne

I: B Gibbs, L Anthony

E: S Coniglio, N Maxwell, Alwyn Davey

In: M Scarlett, C Dixon

Out: N Maxwell (omitted), Alwyn Davey (omitted)

New: C Dixon


Oh, and GO:

DUBLIN and PNL!

Toronto Wolves Round 17
Defenders: Andrew Carrazzo, Michael Johnson, Ted Richards, Tom Bell
Midfielders: Scott Pendlebury, Sam Mitchell, Nathan van Berlo, Clint Jones
Ruck: Ben Hudson
Forwards: Jack Riewoldt, Taylor Adams, David Hale, Sam Wright
Interchange: Jamie MacMillan, Jared Rivers
Emergencies: Kieran Harper, Matt Shaw, Aaron Joseph
   Captain:   Scott Pendlebury
   Vice-Captain:   Sam Mitchell

IN: Tom Bell, David Hale, Jamie MacMillan, Ted Richards
OUT: Matt Maguire (ankle), Angus Monfries (ankle), Rohan Bewick, Kieran Harper


Very very undermanned Wolves side running out there today! Kieran Harper has been dropped (I believe for the first time this season?) because an individual bias can only go so far...

I had plans to move Jones to the bench and bring in another midfielder, but injuries to Maguire and Monfries and the dropping of Bewick have forced me to update my bench. Jamie MacMillan gets a well earned run, while the big story of the Wolves this week, Tom Bell comes in for his debut!

Pumas Round 17 Team

Def - Waters, Fisher, Houli, McMahon
Mid - Ablett, Sloane, Wallis, Hartlett
Fwd - Roughead, Blair, Wright, Porplyzia
Ruck - Jacobs
Int - Minson, Whitecross

Emg - Hannebery, D. Smith, Roberton

Captain - Gary Ablett
Vice Captain - Rory Sloane

In - Sam Jacobs, Hamish Hartlett, Brendan Whitecross
Out - Jon Griffin, Daniel Cross (shoulder), Dan Hannebery

3 changes made this week, with just 1 being forced after Cross injured his shoulder last week. Hopefully he'll be right for the finals. Sam Jacobs makes his return after missing last week through injury with Jon Griffin making way. Whitecross also returns from a week in the ressies after putting in an impressive performance. The forward line is very contested at the moment, with 5 of my forwards averaging over 98 points per game over the last 5 rounds, 4 of them averaging above 100! The final change is Hartlett returning from a 6 week layoff, who slots straight back in to the mids. Final round before the finals, so hopefully we can get through it unscathed!

Go Pumas!!

[ossie85]

I think Cross is out for the season CF

I think Cross is out for the season CF

Thought he would be :'( Luckily Hartlett is back then...
