In: zerk,Ambrose,Phillips,guelfi( he should never of been dropped in the first place)
Out: hurley,Bellchambers, zaka, Snelling
Hooker goes forward
Straight up fix
I reckon Ham lost 9 of 10 contests he went near, and put in several short steps to avoid a 10th. Thatâs against the Blues, one of the lighter and softer sides - Pies would destroy him. Canât be risked.
Townsendâs done nothing since half time rd 1.
Hope Zerrett doesnât miss one for that, but who knows.
Out: Ham Townsend
In: Conor Ambrose
Fanta will be much better for the run IMO. Did a few good things in the 2nd half.
FWIW, I think weâll win.

After a performance that bad itâs a tough call. Probably drop Zaka, Snelling and Towner for Cutler, Ambrose and Guelfi.
Go taller and play Hooker forward and Ambrose on De Goey. Play Guelfi forward in Towners spot and tell him to keep the pressure up.
If we were really being fair weâd drop one of Walla or Fantasia for maybe Mozzie. But iâd back those 2 guys in.
Surely someone from the club can give us a report on todayâs scratch match. even Carlton have done one

Phillips/Draper for Bellch (I donât care who)
Guelfi for Zaharakis (I want a bruiser)
McKenna for Ham (The sooner we get Conor in the better)
Mo22ie for Snelling (We need some more smiling around here)
Ambrose for Gleeson (Ambrose to Mihocek then send Hooker forward to rag-doll Moore)

Seriously, how can you even think we have a chance next week? Where does this confidence come from?
Because we had what, two training sessions in fourteen days? Coming up a side whoâs trained normally and actually played a game?
Huge upside.

People who arenât dropping Bellchambers can tongue punch my fart box.
If you thought Tin man was bad tonight. Can you imagine what Grundy will do to him
Just play Phillips. He should of been playing ground 1 . He earned his spot in the team through his pre season performances. Reward him FFS

Whatâs Snelling done to put him in the gun? 2nd at the club in pressure acts, 3rd in tackles - if we want to play a front half game, heâs close to undroppable.

Watch us bomb longâŚstraight to Jeremy Howe.
And yes, I know Howe is done for the year.

Well the alternative was to drop Raz or Walla which is hard to stomach. I guess Raz. On review, dropping both Towner and Snelling loses too much forward pressure. But i think we need to go taller. Our midfield canât grasp how to deliver the ball to the small forwardline. Hooker forward, Ambrose back and one of the small guys out.
What happened to Clarke?
We needed a tagger tonight
Trying to spin the fact we copped a disappointing loss to an arch rival where we shouldâve been smashed, into a win against the form side of the comp the next week is an interesting concept. Well played!
They got beat this weekend.
They lost to a Giants side which played hard and tough by under a kick. If you played that match 10 times, Collingwood win 9 times. You have to lose sometimes.
Yeah was thinkin the same about us too.
Will rebound.
Only thing missing is that he hardly ever gets the ball!
Lucky no crowds otherwise I wouldnât turn up next week the sight of Pies fans whilst we are getting pulverised will make me sick
Townsend has done nothing? Almost got us win with his goal that missed by a bees â â â â
