Wednesday – Early news

This is the first early bye round, with the Lions, Magpies, Blues and Cats all having a rest – dont forget that its top 18 players counting this week. The big news this week is that Errol Gulden will miss up to 4 months with a shoulder injury and is a must trade. Fellow Swan Isaac Heeney, along with Hugh McCluggage, James Worpel, Mattaes Phillipou and Adam Treloar are all tests for their respective clubs.

Izak Rankine has been cleared to play, which could impact the role of Josh Rachele at the Crows. George Wardlaw has also been cleared to return, which could affect the role of Toby Blamires.

Jack Macrae has been ruled out for at least 2 weeks, which could open up better opportunities for some of the Saints younger players.

Weather notes updated at Wed 18 Mar, 3:00pm AEDT. Please check weather closer to game day.

GAME 1: Hawthorn Hawks vs Sydney Swans
Thursday March 19 – AEDT: 7:30pm MCG Melbourne 🌦🌙

Notes: Mild evening conditions expected around ~22C with a slight chance of light showers. As expected Errol Gulden is out, and Isaac Heeney did not pass his test. Could this open up the midfield for options such as Angus Sheldrick?

A windy cold day in 2015, I was bored, sick with the flu, and decided to start a blog about Teamsheets. I was immediately recruited by Warnie and somehow am now a DTTALK author.
