    ORFFA Round 14 - Late Withdrawal/Unexpected Doughnut Round

    Four day footballing weekends and a Geelong coach notorious for late withdrawals mean that there's always a bit of suspense added to pre-game lead-ups ... a vibe that may only become more common as the season enters its latter stages.

    However, on a positive note, such late withdrawals and the doughnuts they leave squads to deal with are a reminder of real life doughnuts, and the tastiness that accompanies them.

    Mmmm doughnuts. Not doughnuts but missing a few dudes this week ...

    D: Himmelberg, Idun, Dale, Clark
    M: Serong, Rowell, Richards, Gulden
    R: Visentini
    F: Warner, Ross, West, Voss I think
    IC: Redman, Brown

    Holding a raffle for F4, really not sure who to put in. Voss today perhaps but not sure who to put there permanently.

    Poor Vigo getting a bit of a whacking in the ruck as we speak.

    @Bandit , will be interesting to see how ANB goes. I'll be comparing his performance to that of Logan Morris; 9 years younger and 158 less games. Averaging 65 v. ANB's 72 from one less game this season. The kind of decisions one has to make in a rebuild. The future versus the past. :D

    Some seriously bad hairstyles in that lineup, much like a Cockatoo!

    Thank you, different phases in a squad's life cycle lead to different decisions.

    Jaguars looking forward to any and all late withdrawals, our mission to rise to the bottom of the ladder is so far not preceding to plan.
    Below is the squad nominated for a beating from the Battlers :) @JC

    Have updated the team.

    Ryan Byrnes comes in instead of George Stevens, on the interchange… and Stevens takes the defender emergency spot.
