Why has Malthouse picked Nathan Brown in the side and taken Goldsack out? Does he really think that Nathan Brown can hold Barry Hall? So dissapointed.
Still i don't think it'll impact the side too much but can't wait to Presty is back in and i don't have to look at Nathan Brown stuffing up all the time.
Looking forward to Saturday's game, got my accommodation booked at the Langham Melbourne and tickets in Premium Reserve... Go pies!!
