Yeah, I am surprised by the move, he is way off being match fit. Took about 3 months of playing after his first cancer treatment to get back to his normal form.

The cynic in me believes that GC are a bit hit or miss and pumping up the team short-term might make us lose pick 1 as I don't see the Eagles winning any of their last two games. I don't think anything is going to likely cause an upset this week, we have a hard time winning in Adelaide at the best of times.
I don't really think pick 1 vs 2 is worth doing any shenanigans but who knows, might be a logical reason for the move.
Show's you how far some journalists are off the mark!!

Wheres doedee in being reported?.. club presser?
Doedee would replace Hamill I reckon. RT for Berg the other change.
Leigh Adams (North Caretaker Coach) was interviewed on SEN this morning and he said Cunnington will play this week
Amazing what he has gone through this year, huge achievement to come back and play a game this year.

I sense a Jason McCartney style farewell for him in round 23 at home.
Good luck to him. Hope he stays well.

Think it will just be Doedee for Hamill. Making unforced changes after a win is not in our DNA.
I think that will make 4 weeks without an unforced change. We must have zero passengers

Take one quarter out and it’s been four very good weeks.

You don't think Thilthorpe for Himmelberg will happen ? ......it should !
I think we have been decent for most of the season, we just always have an absolutely horrible quarter and let a team pile on 6-8 goals without answer (Sydney, Hawks, Melbourne, Brisbane), while winning or breaking even in the other 3. Or don’t take our chances in front of goal in a game we dominate general play (Saints). Lost 3 games by less than 6 points (Freo, Essendon, Pies), all are games that we had opportunities to kill the game earlier and win by 2-3 goals. The only games I thought we truly didn’t turn up all game were Collingwood and Giants in first half of the year.
It’s an almost season, but definitely progress on last year and is setting up for a finals push even as early as next year, especially with Rankine added to the mix.

As I said earlier in the week, I'd be dropping Schoenberg who has not fired a shot all year.
Thilthorpe I'd just write this year off for him and put him on ice.
Both of these lads need a good preseason and will hopefully get back to their 2021 levels (or better) next year.

I thought Schoenberg showed signs on the weekend ......my view is, play them if available
Unless you want to give a "taster" to a player .....

Schoey has been very good the last little patch. Numbers aren’t as high as last year but his TOG is very low which is important to remember.
TT has had a strong second half of the season and was dominant before his recent injury, get him in.
I’m not saying that, I think if Doedee was as banged up as they said then I’d put him on ice for the season, and give Taylor or Sholl a couple games. TT in for Berg is a no brainer.
But I don’t think it’s a good idea to make wholesale changes when the side is performing well. Even McHenry who I think has needed to be dropped for Newchurch or someone else at multiple points, has actually had two very good games.
I've said before, I think the difference is now we've got a predominantly young group, it's a more enjoyable environment for the young guys just from a pure numbers perspective you've got more people to relate to and get along with, so there's less desire to go back home.
Previously with a more mature list you've basically got a few younger guys on the outer surrounded by older guys who have their already formed friendship groups, or families that take priority and it's more difficult to be in a new situation with only a few guys your age to relate to and be friends with.
