For the second week running, Nick Maxwell has made some eye brow raising team selections..

Last week he put Roughead on the bench, without even the emergency tag, when he was still named in the squad, yes it was strongly rumoured that he wouldn't play, but he didn't even use him as an emergency!?

Then this week, he selections Mitchell as an emergency, when Hawks are facing GC - Mitchell should score well. He puts Greene in the midfield, instead of Mitchell?

I was having a laugh at this last night to some mates, then I woke up this morning to read the headline.

"Mitchell out of Gold Coast clash".

He obviously knows more then we do :)

Interesting. Either he just likes to take a gamble, or he (as a captain) hears all the news well before the media does!

Mr.Craig

His trade history makes for interesting reading too...

He's got 3 left and $74500 cash left.

I call that cheeting

It's information that's freely available. All you'd need is a pencil, paper and too much time on your hands. ;D

He did something similar last year or the year before when he benched a player who everyone thought was playing but turned out to be a late withdrawal, and I think it was with a Hawthorn player then too (may have been Sam Mitchell again - some people called it "The Maxwellgate Scandal"). My guess would be that Nick Maxwell is good mates with either Mitchell or someone else in the Hawthorn camp, and they secretly share inside info before games as long as the Hawks aren't playing the Pies that week.

yeah, he did this last year. I can't remember who it was, might have been mitchell vs gc again :P

maybe maxwell should spend more time sorting out his backline on the field than sorting out his SC team !  >:(

alot of these guys are mates. if you ask a mate for some info he shouldn't tell ya, a mate will still tell ya.
