Nope. You don't want a wingman who is better looking than you.
He needs to be friendly, funny but not too funny, and **** off when you give him the signal.

I reckon there's a high chance we go un-changed into next week. I would probably like to see Carroll go back to the VFL for a couple weeks and us bring in another marking target up forward.
Is Martin's calf good to go? Do we give Kemp a shot up forward? Does Fog get another chance to try and solidify a spot in the team?

Martin to the VFL for a week for me. Prove he can last a full game.
Marchbank in if he can or vs Essendon if he's not deemed ready

Marchbank...
Couldn't agree more
Will be mighty pissed if they drop Motlop for Martin

Re: Marchy, reckon it may be after the bye. A bit more building.

He hasn't played an AFL game since 2019.

I spoke to the great man at a pre function one night back in 2013, I asked him about his training regime and that he looked fit enough to still play. He said basically he just ran (over and above club training) every single day no matter what, still did to that day. He reckons even if he got out on the p!$$, he would punish himself with a huge run. Even if he had a cold or flu, he would still run. Absolute beast!bradley was an aerobic freak, I recall when his taggers were flagging, he'd have them follow him around the centre square pre-bounce so they couldn't rest - eventually he'd break them, he'd reach a pain threshold too but just push through it - sublime, so much time, beautiful off both feet but usually only had to use his favoured right, he never ever stopped running........it's ok to be a fully outside player if you're as fit as he was, lob has that in his favour but can't read the game the way 21 did..........have a look at some of this stuff:

What a player. Moment 1: Shows Matera (no less) a clean pair of heals, runs gets a one two from Macca, then the boo-na- na from the boundary.

Need to be mindful of effect Moore can have. Might need Kemp to ensure Moore can't roam freely.
We've been much better since the Hawks game at avoiding enemy interceptors - a little mentioned area of improvement given we we so diabolical at it in 2020/21
Each week's game plan..: 1. Don't kick it to their X.

I agree with this - adrenaline is a double edged sword --with so many young players I think they burn a lot of energy in the excitement of it all - then go into the break and it's a huge come down leaving one mentally and physically fatigued .. the games where we wrestle along till half time then flick the switch probably suit this young group.. but when you have the momentum you need to take it ..
Once the group learn to control there emotions a little more it will even out.
You don't see many teams reach a pressure height we did in the second quarter with the age profile we had ever ..
Would love a Bradley type in our current midfield mix, would round us out beautifully.
Great outside run & skill with his raking 60 metre kicks that Kernahan loved would suit Harry & Charlie perfectly.

Dermie said he was one of the toughest players he ever saw stating it takes a lot of courage and mental toughness to push yourself to run like Craig Bradley would beyond exhaustion week after week ..

Not exactly a lock when you've already been dropped once this year. Won't be dropped next week (and not should he) but he isn't a lock
Will only take a couple of bad games in a row and he'll likely find himself out of the side.

I hope they bring in Cox for this game,to try and ummm stretch us with height.

No matter ladder position true rivalry games are always a coin toss - even at the height of our shizerhausenry we would always push the Pies (albeit it didn’t result in too many wins) and the Pies are far from bad this year and will field a good side for this fixture.
That said our A game is pretty bloody good and should only get better as the players get more confident in the results it can bring, so I’m hopefully we can assert our strength over them for extended periods.
Given there were no injuries from Friday’s game and the longer break should hopefully help the players recovery I don’t foresee any huge need to make changes.

In general I agree but If you look at our respective forms this should be an easy game for us. We are insanely dominant out of centre bounces and stoppages.
Dow has beat the door into sawdust. Was sitting on 20 touches and 2 goals at half time today in a mid/fwd role.
