I just dont see Hartigan being dropped. Kelly maybe. One or the other our for Talia. Knowing Pyke though it'll be Keath.

I dont think Tex is a monumental loss tbh - it hurts but we have some actual depth now (in theory).

Whatever the changes, Pykey must be wary of % and if we have the game won, we have to get as much sauce on top as possible.

Obviously Brisbane are no easy beats any more and mission number 1 IS just getting the 4 points, but if we want to be able to drop a close game somewhere we essentially need to start putting teams to the sword for %.

1 minute to go and we are 6 goals up, we need to look for another.

Recent seasons have shown how every goal matters.
 
I think Fog will come in for Tex but wonder if we'd be better off just running a bit smaller up forward. Fog battles a bit to get involved in the game (do like what he does with it for the most part), think the speed addition we had in our forward ine tonight did wonders for us. Created mistakes, turnovers and goals off the back of guys getting there quicker to harass them. Not really sure there is much more speed to bring in and Fog can pressure well and alternative options like CEY aren't going to add any more speed, just more midfield rotation.
 
Yeah would say:

Out: Hartigan, Tex
In: Talia, Fogarty.

Don't think we need to do much more right now.
 
Would love to see Keath stay in if Talia is fit and we drop Hartigan.
Would be perfect if Gov was fit to come in for Tex but seeing as he is not ready Fog will come in.
 
In: Talia, Polholke
Out: Hartigan, Kelly

We can't play 8 defenders.

Gibson is technically better, but Polholke is the future.

In: anyone other than CEY or Poholke

CEY to slow and no defensive pressure

Poholke to slow at making decisions

Our win tonight was from defensive pressure and quick ball movement when we attacked these 2 guys do not provide either of those
 
Talia and Fog for Hartigan and Tex is the obvious one. Hartigan really is a liability back there and we can't afford to carry him. Keath was shaky early but I thought he settled in well as the night progressed, he stays in.
