Hate to see Higgins dropped, and I'm tending to agree with footy clasified Lambert for Broad, as Broads been very, very poor in the last few weeks. Will be an interesting selectionBrandon Ellis was pretty good in the grand final and in the finals overall. Isn't he like another son to Dimma? I don't think he will drop him. Only change will be Lambert for Higgins/Conca. Butler probably won't play.
Mitchell is a lawn mower who keeps the grass low by dragging his butt all over the ground. I really can’t see how Hawthorn are going to get near us this week with their midfield and a few flashy flankers.
Their backline looks more vulnerable than a rainbow lollipop sitting on a supermarket checkout shelf to a toddlers peering eyes and luring hands.
I’m treating this as a warm up match for the Prelim and a game where we get to run in a few blokes into form.
Chompers on the sunday footy show “im tipping hawthorn because of one word Clarko” shut up ya big teethed campaignerI wish I had a penny for every time I've read 'the clarko factor' this week.
We would need to be plagued with some mystery virus for us to lose.So reading between the lines TI, what you're saying is we're a good chance this week?
Not sure if I trust Concas body.
Has cost us 2 finals in the past.
Blaming all those loses on Conca? Bit harsh. Back in those days of a SUB on the bench, it was worse on teams if someone got injured early. Nowadays 22 players rotating makes the spread of load more even. I think he's in cos he finds the football & tackles. Plus you need a couple of feelgood stories. 1) Conca persevering through years of injury, gets back in the side, wins a flag. 2) Higgins breaking into a premiership team, plays all year & gets a flag in his first hit out.Not sure if I trust Concas body.
Has cost us 2 finals in the past.
Butler has to come in because he is the one player whos speed and pressure we have been missing
They played him for a quarter it looked like. Hardly sighted him. I would err on the side of caution with him. Play him in our next hit out. I love him and the other smalls. Just no need to rush it.He has to, but it’s a question of whether he can and whether he’s ready.
I reckon Butler plays, they saw him play for a half in the VFL and got him off the ground pronto.

All sats presure, tackling, r50, meters gained, the lot have been very ordinary in the kast 2 weeks, and 3 weeks ago against the suns was only marginally better. I think it would be a concern fot match committee if he is good enough to flick the switch and step up.Yeah I saw that but they quoted his 4 possessions from the weekend as a case. He's one of our defenders in a pure defensive role. I don't think possessions are at all relevant and his close checking of opponents allows guys like Rance, Houli, Short, Vlastuin to play more attacking.
However I wasn't watching him closely enough to notice anything particular bad that he did. Was he getting beaten by his opponent or something?
Ty Vickery should be a late inclusion.
A spectacular marking forward combined with dead-eye accurate kicking.
Has to be lambert for conca.
