People calling to have Parish moved out of the midfield...

We win some games in a row and this place turns into a mad house.
I prefer this mad house to the one we get after we lose some games in a row though. :rainbow:

I think we definitely need a fast start. Keep the crowd quiet and maybe take advantage of them playing sub-standard opposition last week so it might take them a little bit to adjust to real pressure again.

Walker could be a real problem matchup for us with Hurley and Ambrose both out.

Absolutely. Brisbane came here yesterday and completely shut out the home crowd advantage with a fast start. Will be closer than the bookies suggest, as we haven't been great at home this year.

Crows won't make the same mistake as port and take their eyes off the ball and play the man at start of game

Ohhh, I'm not too sure about that; the team takes a loss pretty well...

Surprised to see no one mentioning Begley to come in if Fantasia misses. Has he been that underwhelming in the twos?
Well his game on the weekend was ok. Solid performance. I wouldn't say he set the world on fire or deserved a call up as a result though.

My theory has been to add the consistent nuffy posters to my ignore list, it greatly increases the average quality of posting.

I'm struggling to keep up.
 
Out; Hurley (inj), Hooker (inj) Fantasia, Redman, Langford (all omitted)

In; Hartley, Zerk, Snelling, Ridley, Heppell

Laverde gets the chop before Redman or Langford. IMO. Has done nothing for 3 weeks and when he does get a set shot that is not directly in front 20 out he always misses. Langford could play half forward and do just as well and also provide a spare midfield rotation. Redman had a bit of a mare game but he has been very good overall.
I would be looking at.
Hurley - out Fantasia - out Laverde - out
Hartley or Zerk in Heppell in Snelling in
If Hooker misses then both Hartley and Zerk in
Heppell back to the midfield. Langford and Snelling forward.

Mynott is getting back into the form he showed early on before his ankle injury and could be an outside chance.

Heppell and Ambrose returning would be huge. If they do, then:

IN: Heppell, Ambrose
OUT: Guelfi, Hurley

Solid team. If Fantasia misses, then Snelling or Mynott to replace him.
