[HOORAY PUNT]

Sturt lost that one , in fact to be honest were robbed even Chris McDermott admitted that.

I saw one a couple of years ago as well ........cough cough cough

oops sorry about that nearly choked, something caught in my throat .

[Mark_Beswick]

It will need to be Alec Grima kicking goals as Todd has a week off with suspension

[the joker]

Aiden Riley was upgraded by the crows today, he is not in the team but he is the travelling emergency so he won't play for sturt

Chad out for bays.
Not getting a game for power puffs but they are making him sitout tomorrow night. What a joke

Only because Jay Schulz has to pass a fitness test. Kind of the same for Aiden Riley being the travelling emergency for crows

Surely you know by tomorrow morning, if schulz pulls up then let chad be late inclusion tomorrow night, surely they arent waiting until game day to rule him out.
Seems a waste to miss a week completely

The Power want him to do a full training session Friday and then see how he pulls up Saturday morning therefore Chad won't play as he would be his replacement

[Cambridge Clarrie]

Good to see Hurley as an 'in'. Hope he plays...

Agree Clarrie....from what I have seen/heard the guy has talent and needs a chance. He has been playing some top footy in the ressies.

Hope he starts

[on the rails]

Seriously (despite the fact I think he is an arrogant "git") Chad Cornes is a better option than half the players currently playing for the Power and always plays with passion and give 100 percent regardless of how the team is travelling. I can see the need to blood youngsters for the future but they need to be around experienced hard heads to develop but clearly Primus doesn't rate this aspect of Chad's game?

At the end of the day it is Glenelg "reaping" the benefit and as we saw against North - his experience and versatility are massive bonus for the Bays.

I can't remember, does being named as an emergency (not playing), still count as a game for the SANFL team, towards qualification?

I'm pretty sure it does, yes.

[DOC]

The teams South beat win the next week (I think its the shock) so Sturt for me.

Luke Norman said on RPH last night he will play?

Ducks and Drakes perhaps Dutchy?

[Big Phil]

What can Bays fans tell me about tonight's debutant Lewis Hender?

I've seen and read/heard he is in good form in the reserves, what is his background etc?

Look forward to seeing how he goes in the seniors tonight.

Originally from Keith in our Sth East zone.
Strongly built lad, and has been from a young age. Really strong mark, stands up for himself and his team mates.
2011 Pre-season saw him focus on endurance and fitness, and his improvement in these areas is obvious to people who have seen him over the past couple of years.

2011 - Played U18s Rnd 1, Reserves since then.
Is in State 18s squad again this year, and still under the eyes of State selectors.

2010 Played in State U18s match V West Aust where we won by 65pts last year and showed his talent with 4 goals in the first half. Lewie kicked 4 against Tasmania as well.
Played in our 18s Premiership team, and played well in the finals.
Kicked 42 goals from 13 games in the 18s last season, and gave off a few as well.


Good Character in this lad - Late last year when the Keith Hospital was in the firing line for Gov't funding cuts, Lewie and 5 of his his mates ran and rode the 240km from Keith to Adelaide in 3 days to highlight the plight of their local hospital.
He was a bit stiff and sore for a few weeks after, but said it was all worth it for the exposure it got highlight their district's need for their hospital.

Thanks 85WAGY, really appreciate your help.

Good on him (Lewis) and good luck to him tonight.
