Viney in for Vince - I reckon he'll cop a week.
Wagner out for anyone else. Frost? Salem? Maynard? Watts? Hell, I'd take Lumumba over him right now.
 
I think give Viney the three weeks. Let him go into a final 100%.

Confirmed Wagner out please. Salem, Watts, Maynard, Frost, whoever. Tries hard and looked ok last week playing up the ground, but he's just not good enough in defense.
 
yep, Viney doesn't need to have a recent game for touch he just needs to step over the line. Save him.

Wagner for Salem, give Bernie a tagging job and Pendles assuming he's not suspended.
 
Um... so you know we haven't made finals yet right?
I do, but I also know that the club has said his foot issue isn't the plantar fascia and with some reasonable changes we can knock the Pies over regardless.

Just looked at the predictor
If WC win by 30 we have get within a kick of the Pies

If they only win by 12 we can afford to lose by 4 goals.

So its by no means over at all

What if they lose?
 
Negative of dropping/losing both Vince and Wagner is that Lewis may have to play more back. I have really enjoyed his recent role as distributor out of stoppages, looks much better there than in the backline IMO.
 
Possible outs, Wagner, Stretch, Hannan

Possible ins, Frost, Salam, Watts

Would love Viney back but don't think he'll be right
 
Viney has to come in if fit, he's missed too much footy this year to have three weeks off going into a final. Needs as much touch as he can get.

Viney if fit for stretch

Salem for Wagner
 
No way does Watts come in, main reason we won today was pressure in our forward line. Watts is a total liability in that regard.

Please. Main reason we won today was because Hogan had a monstrous game. Our forward pressure - with the exception of Pedersen oddly enough - was average. Garlett and Hannan both had shit games. I'd advocate for Kennedy in next week, but his papers are obviously stamped.

Yeah, we were like a sieve mate - they rebounded however they wanted.

Collingwood is quite simply a final for us. If we lose, the Eagles get a massive lift and IMO roll the Crows. Their supporters will be off their **** willing them a big enough score to make finals.

The only ladder manipulation relevant to the Crows is whether they play Port in week 1 of finals and that may not eventuate if Tigers win today. Crows will be hard to beat but they won't win at all costs over in the west.

When we were in ascendancy we locked it in and forced turnovers from Brisbane's disposals coming out of the 50 by hand and foot. When we were bad we let Brisbane run from one end to the other without a single demon breaking into more than a jog. I reckon I know which one of those scenarios picking Jack Watts pushes us closer to.
