Cordy has his brain farts but he doesn’t get enough credit round here, he’s lion hearted and does his best in a zonal defensive structure that does him no favours. I like seeing his name on the team sheet.
 
Love having big Stef back! Hopefully Young is the sub then and if Martin breaks down or we lose a KPF / KPD we have the flexibility to bring him on fresh and cover the loss. Weightman out hurts a lot, hopefully JJ can have a big game and kick a few for us.

Keath was in awesome form and is a huge out, BUT we can still win this game in the midfield, especially with Stef back in to give us more grunt and not let the opposing ruck just grab the ball out of the center and smash it forward.

Still a very good team in, Go Doggies!

In: Zaine Cordy’s destructive knee

Out: Crucial Port player in the first quarter
 
Martin and/or English dropping back becomes even more important here

If Martin is good to go then the ball shouldn’t stream out of the centre to the Port forward line quote as easily as we have seen in the last few weeks at times

If we can win the midfield we can still do this

I BELIEVE

That hurts with no Alex, but looking at it half glass full we have our number 1 ruck back in, and if we get he’s best we get back to what we do best and not let the ball inside 50, I’m probably to optimistic here, we’re winning this!

I like Cordy in to play down back instead of Young also. Young and Gardner would make me very nervous, but Cordy has the finals experience, more seasoned body and i'll back him in to do the job for us this weekend. He has had his issues but has been really solid for us for an extended period in the past, decent depth player to come in.
 
Cordy did play his best game against Port earlier in the year. I don’t trust him but think he can handle Marshall or Ladhams. Gardner has a big ask to combat Dixon though.

Glad Martin came back in. Had to take the risk. Surely Young will be sub in case he or one of the defenders go down.

JJ for Weightman was the right call. Johannisen was influencial after half time last week.
 
Stef in is massive. It is actually now conceivable, I’m not saying it WILL happen, that we smash them in the midfield. I am confident Stef is good to go because we held him back a long time and Bevo plays guys he knows he can coach a good game with them.

we now have a theoretical on field strength. We could bash them up and dominate entries. Most importantly we can’t be the hunted ones
