My guess on some potential matchups. I've put in the height of their talls as I wasn't sure on some of their newer players.

Any thoughts on who will match up on who?

Priddis matches up well with a wooden bench.... preferably with Splinters... that might infect him and keep him out of the team... permanently.

If Tape lines up on Darling he has no excuse not to have a big game.
 
What's the mood today? Confident of a win?
 
This is the first time I've ever been this nervous for an opposition game. I reckon Sydney will win comfortably though.

I meant with your game silly!
 
Well you said "today" so I thought you meant today's game! This is too much for me!

This is just all too hard. Just getting too difficult. Erryday a struggle.
 
You'd hope so.

How do you think they will match up on our talls?

They'll probably play Day forward because Warnock is playing.
Plus if they don't outside of Lynch their next tallest player is Cameron in the forward line @ 190cm.
Thompson going to Kennedy is a given. The other matchups are more difficult.
In height:
195cm - Warnock
191cm - Tape
191cm - Kolodjashnij
189cm - Broughton
188cm - Shaw
182cm - Lemmens
So you'd think Warnock would have to go to Lycett and Tape to Darling.
Lemmens to Cripps also seems likely as you suggested (as they also are similar in speed).
Broughton to LeCras makes sense because he is more accountable defensively.
That leaves Kolodjashnij/Shaw to try and run off Hill.
I really don't think there's many other alternatives than what you initially suggested for their backline.
 
I guess reading between the lines they have a particular defensive job in mind for Carter. Seems strange that he would be listed in the starting 18, even though he will probably only be getting in over Brennan, Wilson and Smith when the list gets trimmed.

I imagine the whole 25 traveled over? Do we play all 3 of Brennan, Wilson and Smith if we're out of contention? Come list lodgement time they are probably fighting for 1 or 2 spots.

I don't have an issue with Carter ahead of Brennan, Wilson or Smith. He's played the past two games in a row and ok without standing out but no surprises there. Carter after two games will have picked up the speed of the top level and yes would be good with a secondary run with role against Prestia for example. Prestia is a smaller outside mid so a Carter matchup sounds ok.

By some on here Carter has been touted as delist material but he's got more games in our past 30 then quite a few others on the list and for is age / stage of development looks solid.

Wouldn't mind Bond's thoughts on Carter.

Three emergencies would be in case Richmond win and it's a dead rubber game.
