Hmmm....I like Marshall but he absolutely needs to prove he should be best 22....he is a huge piece of the puzzle this year, if he can stand up and take a few grabs, take and beat the 2nd best defender each week it goes a long way to us returning to finals......if not we're a tall forward short...
So we could have stuck with Primus and got the same results?
A bit naive to think that the move to AO was the only reason for the turn around don't you think...… ah but you know your history and a balanced assessment wont support your view...
How were we going 2011, 2012......I wonder what happened after that to get us to sell outs in those years you mention??
Short memories in here...….I hope we can part ways with dignity given the lift Ken, Koch and Keith delivered us. They deserve some respect for that.
I do have doubts Ken can...
Nailed it!
My extra would have been lycett for ryder but happy with the changes....
Now let's get the job done!

I agree....Ladhams needs a run as the 2nd ruck but also a go againat Goldy to see if we take him into Sept (if we make it) or Ryder....
Agree.........Butters comes back when ready to reward his honesty.....
I'd be interested in seeing how SPP goes as a tagger.....give him the role before finals and see if he's up to it....if he follows say Higgins or Cunnington this week as a taste see if he can take a bigger job come, hopefully, sept......regardless I would have Cam go out for a Motts or Butters...
Well another good win and Ken has already stated he is reluctant to change a winning side so...…..most likely no change....Burton comes in if he is well and truly ready otherwise don't risk him....
IMO...
If Lycett dominates he comes in for Ryder.....Ladhams stays but if his form dips and we...
No not really.....he needs Dixon up and about at least to draw attention away....
This I agree with and love soo much of what he does...….but I can not wait for the day he starts clunking contested marks!....hopefully soon
Yes he does....and he moves well and is a smart footballer who gets to the right spots more often than not, hard for young KPF to play the #1 roll ….but it was definitely time to go back to the sanfl and clunk a few we need him taking marks sooner rather than later...
Yeh, traditions are all well and good but if they may halt progress then sometimes change is better....i wouldnt be a fan but the #1 can be worn by the game day capt with the off field crap shared...easy
At the end of the day i will follow this club to the depths if need be so i can share in the...
I'll nit pick your line up as it's the last one and pretty close.....
I prefer the 3rd tall forward up the ground so would swap Gray to the pocket Marshall to chf and watts on the flank.
For the same reason DBJ to the pocket, jonas to a flank, Clurey seems a better full back also so Howard to...
I agree with those that think ollie is maybe a year or two away but with boak still around to mentor him I'd give him the job now....would be better at the off field stuff than tj who doesnt need the head f..ks.....needs to nail those captains goals tho!

Got the job when we needed his strength and unselfishness.....and his timing to hand over the reins perfect also, thanks Boaky for the service a job well done...enjoy the last few years hopefully the mojo will return....
Next in line?
After Ollie's miss last year I thought he might not be...
Yes on a nice march day against a average freo at home!
Jack , as mentioned , is a fair weather footballer who will look spectacular roaming flanks and delivering inside 50 and getting inside himself now amd then for a clever goal
Wont hurt him or the team to miss a few mid winter....now...
This is where i think some get it wrong....watts in my mind is not a kpf...marshall I'd have chf, dixon ff ...watts is hhf or fp ...i would have liked to see all 4 in ,with westhoff of course, but given the oppo and weather not a bad time to do it...will certainly test watts mentally strength...
Such a smart footballer and good speed for his size...we lose no forward pressure with him there ..i really like the look of him at chf dixon ff with watts and westy roaming

I remember asking here preseason why no one had him best 22....how things change!
On the game....
Sloppy but conditions dictated a bit of that as did the suns pressure at times...
The fact SPP is so important to us says a bit about him and a bit about the team...what a talented mongrel kid...
Wonder which port will show up?
The ruthless minnow killer of last year or the drop a winnable game just to make it hard side from the years before?
I think we'll get the points this week, not worried about percentage here just want the 4 points and some consistent hard footy for a few weeks...
hahaha.....I appreciate the effort (even if I did read SFA of it, entertaining stuff)...and it broke up all the pissing and moaning from a few of the regular sooks!
I try to go into every game thinking positively about our chances of winning and expecting that every player selected will do...
The amount of times cancer gets mentioned in jest in these boards, it's like no one here has watched a loved one die slowly from the horrible disease....
