I think I must have been looking at their lineup for the week before. We might need to go taller then.

I have the solution guys hear me out the Michael's way!
After ruling his family friends distance from him. He pretends to be homeless so he can claim any space as his home. So play three quarter's vs Melb and go put up a little tent outside MCG there for solves it all I can't believe not one bright spark has thought of that
Now whats 2 divided by 2
don't think sims will be given a go, not ready yet for me, and hasn't been that 2nd ruck for most of the vfl games anyway
blight seems the obvious ruck/fwd replacement but i wouldn't be surprised to see bauer back in, 4 goals on the weekend, should've been more, but also for whatever reason he was the one we'd play as 2nd ruck even though he's our shortest tall forward and that was even with fawcett in the side. although that was also before we played blight as the 2nd ruck so who knows, and unsurprisingly the 192cm bauer wasn't that competitive in the ruck
i wanna see gray get the call up for balta though, love his work in the vfl, would like to see how it goes on afl quality talls
also hated seeing trainor as the sub, just like i hated bauer as the sub. just hate talls as the sub tbh, feel like it's meant for flankers/versatile mids who can play on all lines, especially since even if a tall goes down, we have players who can play taller down back like broad, vlastuin, and obviously trainor if he was on the field. the only time we'd be screwed if a tall went down would be nank, but we can't plan our sub around that. also having a tall as the sub means we're gonna most likely have to sub off a tall unless we wanna have an extra tall in the 4th quarter of a game, when usually you'd want a fresh runner

Why is our HOME VFL game being played away at Casey?
Most of our potential second rucks are also spuds in the forward line:
Ryan, Miller, Kozitshke, OHB, Collina. Sims not quite ready yet, Blight still better down back, IMO.
Miller, Blight, even Kozi are OK down back - but they don't like disrupting the backline by using one as second ruck.
Gray could be an option - has a decent leap to at least contest if he is smart enough to keep away from the body on body grappling at boundary throw ins. But again - has been playing down back.
Is McIntosh able to make some sort of contest against Gawn like we used Griggs back in the day?

I think at some point the redevelopment was going to kick off meaning we wouldn't be able to play home games at Punt Road. Could be that?
Yes.
Played Frankston last week, but the match before they mentioned last Punt Rd match for the season.
We need more dedicated VFL threads. I've only just realised it's 11am tomorrow.
Cracking morning beers instead of going to work tomorrow.

Didn’t think too much of him last year in the few games he played but has looked great down back
Well earned call up

Good to see the club eyeing off the future and trying to fast-track the development of the young talls. Kosi seems to be the last option.
Grey's form has been really good this season, well deserved.

Blight isn't playing. Confirmed changes so far are Gray and Mansell in for Balta and Ryan.
Sonsie, Smith and Bauer were also at Captain's Run.

How are we in round 7 already? wtf I feel like season just started it's going quick this year...
Yep, 2017, we won the flag.....
(well we had some talls, they just never came on.....)
Hopefully Trainer is not the sub this time. Sonsie would be great to sub and have an explosive qtr +
Could be enough to break the Dees....
Yze said it'll be someone else this week.
