Play Lance up forward; there is no real matchup for him down back.

Put lance up forward and then Harris will still have to cover fev, causing their defence to be be too short and too small.

The only thing we would have to do is win through the midfield and play direct footy.

That si why I have put some money on an upset this week.

Sorry to say this....BUT..........


Play crap possession, flooding footbal for the last 6 minutes of every qurter (except the last when all will be knackered) remeber the Whizz cup...all attachke and at the 20 minute mark Lance would stroll to defence.....why aren't we doinf it now...not like it didn't work.

I'm sick of copping goasl (usually a few in quicjk succession) in time on...

Walker would be our best matchup for him IMHO.


He's becoming our no 1 go-to guy when it comes to shutting down a dangerous opponent.

Play Tex as a running CHB.He is a 80m player and the drive from the backline will be great.

Yes .. that was when we were doing OK and, later, beat the Ds in Round 1

But the wheels fell off shortly thereafter .. surely we can't beat them now!? It's Round 15 .. there's 7 more weeks left, and with Finals in thsights they'd be putting in their all to make sure they're there after Round 22 (not like some clubs .. again!)

:shock:

Wonder what Wolfie will have to say about this?

Our stats will back up what you say but recent form will suggest otherwise ..

It's been mooted that Fisher may play this week. Anyone have any definitive word? Has he looked ready on the track?

He's been out a long time - it smacks of desperation to play him so quickly. Why would you do it? Give a kid a go instead, we all know what Fisher can do.

Pagan sounded pretty definite in his press conf that as soon as he's fit he'll be rushed straight back in.

Excuse #378 is that we don't have Waite & Fisher & lack the depth to cover them.

In Bryan, Jackson, Smith
Out: McLaren, Sporn, Bannister

Bryan can ruck the full game, leave French as second string. IMO French should be dropped also.

I couldn't care less if we lose, within 6 goals anyway, as long as we lose with new kids not the has beens. My vision says Chambers and Teague to be recalled with Bryan.

Bannister is ok.. at least he runs with the ball....

The more players like that in our side the better.

I've never been a fan of Bannister in the AFL, love his work in the VFL, but is he part of our future? Do you think he will be listed next season? I dont think he will, hence the time to bring in the untried.

People might say we don't have the correct balance of mature/youth if we go down the track of too many kids at once, but then again it is only for another 8 games.

Walker has to get Johnson for sure, is strong enough and can run and jump with him

The issue will be getting Fevola enough quality ball.

If we lose by less than 40 pts we should be happy
