Just want a really impressive effort from all with straight kicking for goal and no injuries.

Maybe a lack of confidence in his abilitly to see out a whole game. Hence the sub role he gets when he does get a look in.

Don't want to be left a man down these days.

Anyone have 3 spare tickets?

Didn't know if I would be able to go or not, didn't book in time, and now I have a Captains club membership that can only get me standing room. :oops:

Definitely getting a reserved seat for next season.


I may have 1 or 2 spare.


Moshe - If you have 2 please pm me, more than happy to pay for them. Thanks

Oh Moshe - we are not worthy.

Bower has never proved he is our second best defender....Laidler Jamo Thornton miles ahead of him at the moment....form wise and fitness wise even factoring in Jamo missing weeks....

Lachie's the man for Buddy, Ratts even hinted at that in the presser. Did a great job on him when he was a kid at Lions, why not now?

Jamo's fitness doubts will see him take the other tall, may be forced to Buddy if Hendo struggling.

Bower? FFS, not nearly ready. Laidler way ahead of him anyway and plays tall so well. Class act this kid. Pauly boy just not ready for this game, hope he gets himself right before the finals, a good back up when right.

Who do Laidler and Duigan play on?

Not a lot of match ups present themselves. Possibly a Duigan rest? Bringing Russell in would only further complicate things given Hawks dont really have a lot of medium sized talls.

I'd imagine Laidler and Duigan will fill the whole when they are in space kicking inside 50. We know buddy likes going from the runs at the wings, let him take those longs runs to way outside 50.

DONT forget about David Hale too, Thornton may take him, but it also could be laidler or Davies (if played).

Jamo will go to Hale. Hendo to Franklin.

I assume Breust starts as the sub again, Thornton starts forward, then swung back when hes bought on, and maybe one of the other two subbed off. Laidler takes Whitecross, AJ to Rioli, Duigan to Puopolo if he starts forward...

Carrots kept Mitchell to 23 touches last time around, so we go with that again. Gibbs to Hodge. I assume Sewell goes to Judd again. Hesitant to have Murph go head to head with Lewis, given he towelled Boak over 3 quarters last week, has a decent record against us, and questions over Murph running both ways.

Betts gets Gibson, Kreuz gets Shoenmakers, Thornton probably gets Guerra, and then Garlett gets Burgoyne or Murphy.

Interesting watching the first half of that game, and seeing how much influence Gilham and Roughead had on it..
