Nank, lynch, balta, Astbury, grimes, broad....

The number 4 has changed since i learnt about it in prep

You could put McIntosh in that group too.

We’re one tall forward short and another ruck . In the 2014 PF the game was over in eight minutes and I’ll have the stopwatch ticking bc we’re tiny and young. I still haven’t recovered from the pain of last weeks massacre and now we’re going in with a one dimensional predictable tall forward and a field full of short people. Gawn looked happy last night with his sidekick Frankenstein Preuss and I wish KDH would just play a second ruck. Why are Soldo CCJ and Miller on our list and Moore’s career must be over if he can’t get a game with Jack out???

Equal third youngest team of the round (Average age 24.4). Just marginally behind Gold Coast (24.2) and Carlton (24.3)

Do not get this "we are too short" out other genuine big blokes are either rubbish or not ready yet. First the melts were because Ellis kept his spot now the melts because we are are tall or too short.

You could say that Jason has Castagnated... he’s lucky there are so many injuries, otherwise he’d be out too.

 

[banana_bus]

Can't drop everyone. I dare say we'll have a late change too. Rioli or Houli.

I looked at the ins and outs and in the team is B Ellis that says it why dh doesn't play a second ruck.

I bet if the two teams swapped 22s and we were the tall team we’d be ‘too tall’

100 percent

 

[parmy2balmey]

it’s called discussion
the only melts i see are from posters crying that not everyone agrees with dim

 

[cairo tiger]

Why is Ellis in team

 

[PetterdHoisted]

Too short with Baker coming in, but he's a good player, I'll be looking for him to improve his composure in front of goal this year.

feel like Miller is last picked in the 44 ATM. Have they even flirted with an emergency role for him?

Moore, no idea but seems CCJ now ahead as a forward?

Soldo is fine where he is, waiting his opp if Nank breaks down.

Lol there’s not much to complain about with the team so let them have their discussion.

I do agree with a lot them about George and BEllis though.

 

[prodigy1311]

Happy with the changes, Good to see Bolton & Ross in..!
Baker needs to take this opportunity and play a blinder...
We've got this boys & girls. 2-2 coming up

Balta will play ruck forward and Caddy mostly forward. Not so sure you can add another other than Lynch but agree we are seriously fighting out of our weight division this week. Moore really needs to stand up and kick a big bag to get a gig, as much as he has attributes that is what AFL quality forwards do in the VFL.

Balta playing RF will make us short down back. Caddy will help , but he’s not that mobile and is first up from an injury spell.

Agree and ideally Balta should be playing CHB and may well do so. They perhaps should have gone with CCJ who is good up forward and can ruck. But how many under 5 game players can you have in one team. It won't be pretty but at least we are getting valuable games into young players who look like they can genuinely play.

 

[parmy2balmey]

boys flying over tonight? hope CJ is on that flight

those blokes on the selection bubble have dusty breathing over their shoulders this week, no pressure

 

[tiger_tough]

Any danger of using a tagger this week? I think Dimmas unwillingness to use a hard run-with is a detriment to this team. Eagles, Pies, GWS all do it weekly and their pretty bloody good teams. We get flogged most weeks in the midfield even when we have 2 brownlow medalists playing. It's not like you need to sacrifice one of your better players, they just need to be able to run with their opponent, apply pressure, tackle and dish the odd one out themselves. Their man will take you to the ball ffs. Give it a go Dimma please!

Unfortunately I think Moore is now a vfl player.
We’re gonna have to be flexible with Balta, they line up small then drift Westhoff, Ryder or Lycett in to shake it up.
We just don’t want to end up with Balta spending as much time on the bench as some games cause there isn’t anywhere for him to play
