GO BLUES!!!

McLean as a sub doesn't make much sense to me. Either start him or have a player that has more potential for impact and speed late in the game.

Glad Bell isn't the sub anyway.

Allows him to come on fresh when the pace is out of the game.

Not a bad move.

Makes sense to me. Brock is best late in the game when the sting has gone out of it, as he was last qtr last week.

If Brock was a racehorse you'd only back him on a wet track..

Worth noting that the more the season progressed last yr, the better he became. Just keeps chugging when other mids start to feel the pinch later in the season.

Going to miss the first half so hope we are in a good position at half time when I turn on the television.

Go Blues!

We better turn up switched on or this will be a thumping. Not confident in our players mental application.

Carrots on Pendlebury in a run with role, Gibbs or Murphy head to head on Swan.

My lucky 1995 scarf had tomato sauce on it for the whole season. We'll be fine now.

Enough crap on who we are missing, or who is going to kick the goals.

A side with Russell, Seedsman, Dwyer, Sinclair, Clarke, McCaffer, Blair, Jolly, Maxwell, Elliott, O'Brien, Toovey, Goldsack, Lynch etc shouldn't be unbeatable.

Somehow they just seem to get it done though.

Not 100% on McLean being the sub, especially with the defensive structure in place. Davies feels like one too many in the rotation there, even if it releases Tuohy or Yarran. I suppose it's either that or rotating Robbo & Bell through the forward line to give others a rest if they put Brock on the park.

Scotland returning will sort out this issue.

Yep, they have some average players in their team.
Considering we best them twice last time, convincingly and then with a sub par team, we have no excuses.

Crazy that Brock is Sub ... we are going to miss him bad through the day.

I hope and suspect Tom Bell will play well ...

Come on Bluebaggers ... dig deep.

Duigan would probably concede 4 or 5 if he played this week, he's out of sorts. Betts is a loss, but a chance for Jeff to play up to his potential without hurting the forward structure.
