Browny won't be rusty.

He's the best first-game-back player in modern times.

Will kick a big this bloke.

Sounds like Mark Harvey is back into 'make excuses to avoid scrutiny' mode.

After bizarrely whinging about West Coast's very late replacements on the weekend (bizarre considering it was Kerr and Embley out for Sheppard and Gaff and they got beaten by over 5 goals anyway), now he is claiming he only has 25 fit players to choose from.

Well, they've got 39 on the main list and 14 injured players, and two of their rookies are included in that number, so that's 27 from the main list plus the 5 fit rookies. Two of those are already upgraded and playing, incidentally. Also, three of the players on the injury list are listed as 'test', which is potentially three more fit players to choose from. So the way I see it, they have at least 32 to choose from, and with a bit of luck, 35.

Gets a few people off your back when you manipulate the numbers though. He's back to the Mark Harvey of 2008.

Essendon v Richmond - Essendon to be winning at quarter time, $1.70 with Sportingbet.

Despite how much I want Essendon to lose, Richmond haven't won a first quarter yet this year.

Bit odd for me to be punting on a Thursday, but I think that's just about good enough.

Sydney Hawthorn is the toughest pick this week IMO, Sydney always tough in Sydney, Hawthorn being in good nick this year makes it tough to tip against, really depends on which hawthorn rocks up.

48 tips this year, only 5 last week though..

Tipped sydney ftr.

Saints are in all sorts, reckon the dees can get up this week.

Good news, for the redlegs anyway, is that despite walker kicking 7 goals in the SANFL last week he is still out. Hopefully another bag against the pies on Friday night is coming :cool:

Mcgrath and Drummond are good outs for us. Car Keys to play on Brown on his debut, better than trying to play Scott Thompson on him.
