AFL Teams For Round 10, 2012 – Is it Tiger Time?
As a Hawks fan it hurts me to say, Tigers are a good side! When their midfielders play well, they are hard to stop. But they come up against the Saints this week who have been quietly doing a good job lately that has people asking if they can make the finals. Why mention these sides? They play each other this week in Round 10, the last round before the three weeks of byes begin!

What made the Richmond beat down of the Hawk was that they had lost Jake Batchelor in a tram track accident before the game. It seems that the will come back into the side this week but his replacement, Ben Griffiths performed pretty well so it will be hard to push him out of the side. The news for the Saints not so good with backline rebounder, Sam Fisher, still out with a hammy injury. With no VFL on the weekend, it is hard to see any of the guys not in the Saints side pushing in.
In other team news:
- Crows will welcome back Taylor Walker from suspension. The Coleman leader when he went out will make the trip to Perth to take on the Dockers. Coach Sanderson has said he Jason Porplyzia is safe from giving up his position meaning that Josh Jenkins is the likely guy to lose his position.
- After getting pantsed by Todd Goldstein in round 9, Billie Longer is likely to either lose his spot too or get help from the People’s Beard, Ben Hudson, especially coming up against the feared Cox/Naitanui ruck combo! Simon Black will miss two weeks after his baby related injury. Ryan Harwood has been suggested as a possible replacement.
- After being late withdrawls for their match with the Demons, Lachie Henderson and Chris Yarren are likely to return this week. Jarrad Waite however will miss more time.
- Collingwood have another season ending knee injury with promissing young back, Lachlan Keefe, going down in the 4th quarter last week. Nathan Brown and/or Chris Tarrant could replace him. Expect Dane Swan to miss at least another week, if not two.
- Ricky Dyson and Travis Colyer look like to miss this week for the Bombers. Leroy Jetta can return from suspension. NAB Rising star, Dyson Heppell and Dustin Fletcher are chances to return this week as well.
- Tom Hawkins is out after minor knee surgery, but the Cats could regain James Kelly and Allen Christensen. They play the Giants this week, so will we see some players rested?
- Jared Brennan seems to have already been ruled out by coach Guy McKenna.
- Dumped Melbourne veterans, Colin Sylvia and Aaron Davey will find it hard to force their way back in to the side with no VFL matches on the weekend. In their favor is the protiental loss of James Frawley and Brad Green to injury. Is there any point mentioning Tom Couch? Probably not!
- Hamish McIntosh and Lindsey Thomas will come into consideration for the Roos. Jack Ziebell will need to complete a fitness test after being subbed out of last weeks with bruising. Liam Anthony is also still waiting in the wings.
- Swans rucked Mike Pyke on the weekend and would love to have Mumford back, but that isn’t likely until after their round 12 bye. Father and Son pick-up, Tom Mitchell is apparently performing well at reserve level and is pushing for selection.
UPDATE:
- No updates yet but don’t forget to check out the Coaches Box AFL DreamTeam and SuperCoach podcast for the week. This week we were honored to have the 7th best coach in DreamTeam currently, FootyLover18, on the show to share his thoughts about his side, the byes and the likely return of the Mid-Price strategy next year.
- Thur 5:45pm: Been a quiet day on the Team news front. There is word out of Adelaide that Fantasy loved Ruckman, Jarren Redden is an out for his SANFL side due to him coming into the AFL side.
- Thur 6pm: 21 changes in Friday/Saturday games and already 8 confirmed for Sunday according to Patrick Keane of the AFL.
- Thur 6:11pm: Rumor on Twitter that Rory Sloan is out of the Crows side this week.
- Thur 6:35pm: Teams are in.
- Fri 11:21pm: Not exactly team news for this week, but North have anounced that Hamish McIntosh has further injured his knee at training and requires further surgery.
- Fri 2pm: In more team news but not for this round, Kevin Sheedy has predicted the unavailing of Number 1 pick, Jonathan Patton in round 12.
- Frid 3:40pm: In some relevant team news for this week, Steven May has come into the Gold Coast squad to replace Jeremy Taylor.
- Fri 5:50pm: Sunday teams are in.
- Sat 12:30pm: It may be easier to list who aren’t late changes for the Cats. Joel Corey, Steven Motlop, Corey Enright are all out. Jesse Stringer, Billie Smedts, and Tom Gillies are the ins!
- Sat 12:35pm: News from Luke Hodge on 3AW is that Bradley Hill will again be the Sub for the Hawks. I know a lot of Hawks fans will be disappointed with that!
