This is where we usually go in unchanged (excluding injuries).

Weeks of stinky selection followed by an unexpected win. I reckon they will just replace Butts.

If it were me:

Out:

Murphy deserved to be dropped weeks ago and got a reprieve. Still giving us nothing.
Butts

In:

Rachele
Borlase - Now or never

Sloane stays as sub.

Borlase and Rachele for Butts and Murphy are two obvious ones.

Cook and Berry should also be rewarded, and I'd bring them in for Keays and Sloane, but there's no way three unforced changes will be made.

So, likely just the first two changes.

What I’d do..

Butts for Borlase
keays for newchurch
murphy for cook

keep sloane as sub

crouch played well.. but now they have to make a decision.. are they gonna give him another contract and continue playing him or are they not going to give him another and, if thats the case, send him back to the sanfl.

playing crouch, no matter how well he plays, is a waste of games time experience that could be given to another player if we are just gonna delist crouch anyway in four weeks from now.

Sloaney is done. Give him a couple of weeks off and get him fresh for a sendoff against Swans. Boak and Sloane need to retire.
 
I think we will sign him on at this point.
Will go back to melb imo. I think the club may have told him that he isn't getting another contract. I reckon we are doing him a favour to get a deal elsewhere.

Rachele?
 
Do we give Pedlar a rest? Or no point now this late in the season? My first thought was for him to make way for Rachele for a week off. But more than happy for Murphy to drop out for Rachele.

If Butts is I injured then I would like to see Borlase get a go

Rest for peds end of the year.

Not a favour if he has a big hand in winning games of football. He's undroppable for the next couple of games at this point.
 
Crouch looked good.
Borlase and Rachele, in for Butts and Murphy.
Shoenberg and Keays have one more game next week to show that their kicking skills aren’t complete liabilities.

With Rachele back I think it'd be a good time to give Pedlar a rest.

Cook needs to come back in I think, but unforced changes after a win isn't Nicks style at all.

Schoenberg has gone backwards. He obviously excels at sanfl but at AFL he struggles. Lacks a yard of pace at afl and not a good kick under pressure. I think I would rather see Berry or Cook.
