Changes vs North

Blitz : No changes for mine

And for the first time ever, it’s not in sarcastica font.

Just take care of business where we will be heavy favourites in both games (north, tigs).

Then we just need 4 wins from our last 12 games to make final with some very winnable games.

To name a few:

Suns away
Eagles at home
Saints
Freo at home

Yes, looking so far ahead but this next 2 weeks makes or breaks our season such has been our history of losing games to ■■■■ teams.

Lose either one then I think we know what’s coming

If we take care of NM and RICH next two weeks, we will be winning a lot more than 4 of the last 12 games … give you the hot tip.

Won our last 10 games as ‘favourite’ & won 9 of last 11 at Marvel. Undefeated in VIC this year.

No changes unless players need to be managed.

Maybe give Hobbs full game at AFL or Vfl level. If he goes out bring Tsatas in i guess.

I hope you’re right, but every team has a slump of 3+ games during the marathon season.

Hopefully during our slump we don’t lose games we’re expected to win.

The league has never been more even and if you’re off mentally you’ll lose to any team.

Love to see Caddy get a run in the seniors. Maybe Harry has a week back in the VFL?
I do understand that it’s hard to change a winning side.
I’d also be happy if Jake just spent the week doing goal kicking practice.

Goldy was great today but I think he needs to be rested. Plus, I think he’d rather play Dreamtime game than a tin rattlers game. Bryan for Goldy.

In: Reid
Out: laverde

It’s tough because Laverde played imo his best game this year but it’s the right thing for team balance and will be a good opportunity for Reid to come into the side. He is best 22 and I’d say he is just as likely to get injured in the vfl as he is playing against north. Start him and sub him off in the 4th

I really would love to see tsatas get a run but there just isn’t any logical out for him. Think he just needs to bide his time until Durham/perkins/hobbs/caldwell get injured or need a rest.

Zero chance goldy gets rested against his former side. He would have had this game penciled in as soon as he signed with us

Laverde will not be dropped.

I think Marvel will be absolutely packed for this game.

It won’t be against his old club, or Dreamtime. Maybe the Suns game up there will be the one where they give him a breather. Draper potentially coming back in might lessen the burden…

So after tonight I want us to put the sword through North next week. Every team has belted this lot and this now becomes our test next week. Our percentage should be dining out on this game.

Our % doesn’t really matter anymore. Just bank the win.

Can’t have that mentality though.

Could be vying with pies for top 4.

Or another team in top 8 contention could draw.

Or we could draw again.

Even if % doesn’t end up mattering, big wins against ■■■■ teams sets the standard. You want to play well.

Nor should he be after his game today. Started poorly, but was great after qtr time. That down the ground free against him was rubbish.

Unless someone else has a draw…

Yeah, but as long as they keep winning, it won’t matter.

No doubt it was soft but just don’t give the umpire the option to pay it, especially when it’s inside our D50 against a polarising opponent like Greene.
