Phillips for weed is a must.
I’d love to see Tsatas and Baldwin in, reward form and surely you can find two players worthy of dropping this week. I don’t even care who, just drop some players.

Particularly Swans that have to travel to Perth, and then have to travel to Melbourne to play us. In the 7 day break.
Edit - that being said, they’ll likely rest Buddy for the game against Freo for him to play us. . Which will probably be his last ever game in Melbourne.
I agree about Cox.
Baldwin and Davey Jnr are probably the next ones in line, closely followed by Tsatsas.
I would probably bring Cox and Davey in this week and Tsatsas the week after. Baldwin needs to wait for a spot to open in defence, unfortunately for him.
I thought Voss tried too hard today and was getting frustrated when things didn’t work out. But I don’t think he is that far off.
In: Phillips; Cox; and Davey Jnr.
I will leave it for Scott to work out who goes out.
I’m fed up with Stringer’s ten minutes of excellence every other game. Give him a couple of weeks in the Magoos to teach him he’s far from indispensible,
Weideman may have had some talent but he’s forgotten where he put it. Let him look for it in the Magoos.
I saw Kelly and Guelfi a couple of times - but was Caldwell playing at all ?
Will Laverde be fit enough to play next weekend ?
Voss for Stringer,
Phillips for Weideman,
Montgomerie for Kelly,
Davey Jr. for Caldwell,
Baldwin for Laverde, if he’s not fit enough to play.
Hell, that’s only five changes. Probably 13 more would be warranted.

I agree that Stringer shouldn’t play this week.
But I think he’s carrying an injury. Not just out of form.
After the bye, he and Draper weren’t doing any of the training sessions.
And since then, during the week, Stringer has constantly been on light duties it seems.

Yeah we should handle them but would be good if freo finish their season this week.
Otherwise they are well and truly alive.
That being said no melican, rampe and they’d be coming back to Sydney from Perth then flying to Melbourne all within a few days.

■■■■ this bullshit where they do the lap of Australia on their ‘goodbye tour’.
Every game at any venue turns into “the last game we will see X player at X venue”.
I blame Shaun Burgoyne/Hawthorn a few years back where it was milked for absolutely everything.
So same as match day?

Would love to see Voss, Davey & D’Ambrosio all get an opportunity, but can’t see them bringing anyone in who played a full VFL game today, as it’d be a 5 day break leading into the Dogs.
Cox & Phillips the most likely IMO, maybe Hind gets a full game as well.
Out: Heppell (managed) & Weideman
In: Cox & Phillips

Get some of the young guys in, ruck rests forward.
Completely free up Ridley to run and create off half back, get him loose as much as possible.
Could also consider Massimo for Lav if we want another small back there.
Guelfi vs Davey can be another option.
Stringer vs Voss another
I’m ready to play a much younger 22, it is a development year after all.
