Gresham in for Caddy or Jones
Cox was ok today. Not sure why he would be going out, unless sore/injured, he did look a bit proppy at times. Caddy stays in for another week, we seem more balanced with him in, instead of 3 rucks. Goldy can have another week off. Setterfield and Hobbs can cool there jets in the VFL for another week.
Gresham in for Menzies.
Would like to see Shiel in at some point to see if he can add anything to the side, unless his papers are well and truly stamped, ut it won’t be this week.
Perkins was serviceable in the second half but he needs to lift. When Parish comes back, at the moment it could be Archie’s spot up for selection pressure.
2MP in the ruck is really effecting his forward craft. He looks knackered and doesn’t lead as hard.
100% Redman will cop 1 week
Nope the Cats look too happy need sad cats, actually burning cats please
Ins: Setterfield, Goldy, Gresham
Out: Cox, Caddy, Menzie
This is our biggest test for the year. Not ANZAC day, this.
We have been Geelongs bunnies for 20 years. Win this and I’ll probably believe that we have turned around.
Scott said that Cox is fine, no injury.
Also expects both Draper and Goldy to play next week.
No. Cats don’t really have a dominant ruck. 2MP pinch hitting, Draper dominating when he’s in the ruck. That’ll do fine.
I’ve done the most stupid thing possible. The 12 year old thing to do. The “I can’t get 9/9 in any week, let alone 9 weeks in a row” mistake.
The 2024 Ladder Predictor.
If we lose our next 3 and win the games we should, we finish 7th and head to Perth for an away final vs Fremantle.
We win even 1 of our next 3? We finish 5th and host a final against one of about 4 possible options.
We win 2 of our next 3? It’s double chance time.
Win all 3? I’m moist.
THIS GEELONG GAME IS ■■■■■■■ MASSIVE.
We need some genuine speed. In the middle and in the forward line.
In: goldy, setterfield, Gresham, Shiel
Out: caddy, cox, Redman (suspended), Menzie
I will take any win against these, even a dour 57-56 . If we beat them it’s ■■■■■■■ massive
Same with collingwood the week after
in: Gresham, Shiel
Out: Menzie, Cox
we were miles better in the ruck without goldy and Caddy kicks 2 goals and ppl want to drop him?
unfortunate we finally have someone who can play on Hawkins ( McKay) and Hawkins will miss.

Several noes
Cox run with on Athletic Tall guy who plays for them, give him many learnings
Caddy kicks two goals in his second senior game when we’ve been pulling our hair out about having a functioning forward line … and we drop him?
Yeah… nah. He stays.
I can’t agree we were miles better in the ruck. We got touched up in clearances and they took it out the front of the stoppage about 5 times
No idea why people would suggest Cox get dropped. He won’t be.
Caddy gets another game he starts getting ahead of himself and believing he might get through the year without losing a skill he’s had naturally since birth and copping a hamstring that turns into OP. Must be an out. Essington.
