CHF is an almost redundant position in football now.
The key forward can line up 30m out from goal and Walker/Collins can be the lead up options.
Thornton doesn't offer the defensive capability to exist as a forward IMO.

Looking forward to seeing our potential realised.

playing the 3 big blokes, K, Warnock and Hammer will hurt us against any side, including the dees
2 of those 3 are out of form and the other hasn't played at this level since september
huuuuuuge risk for mine

As he has for the past 2 years.

So embarrassing

I imagine if Warnock is right to play Kreuzer will get the rest he missed v St Kilda.

Love it!

They can't kick everyone out. We have to try and in this game. But wow Joseph in after being crap the week before. We are scrapping the bottom of the barrel aren't we?

Really only Buckley left to come in.

Joseph played well against Freo and beat Ballantyne
Got murdered by Milne ( not the first)

We've been killed by small forwards this year. Over 40 goals.
There is no other small defender

I feel for Thornton....

Good to see Warnock back and Kruezer at CHF... You can win a flag without a champion ruckman but not without a champion CHF\FF.

Duigan injured?? I Doubt it.......

How Joesph gets another game is beyond me....we really do have no depth

Kind of a weird team.
I think the spread has been thrown off the top floor.
We will be kicking the ball longerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr to our talls inside 50.

Will be interesting cant wait to see this game.

What will we do if it's wet with all the talls. Strange selections.

Roll out the stats.. and point fingers.
