I can’t see Tmac coming in as a forward. Those days are well behind him. If they were thinking this they would’ve had played him forward for a stint in his VFL games. Instead they moved Kentfield when they wanted more height forward.

Port aren’t running with a tall forward line. They dropped Finlayson and it looks like Sweet might come in to double-team Gawn with Visentini and if so you’d think they would also need to spend some time forward. That makes their talls a resting ruck without much forward craft and Georgiades who is in good form this year but is an in between medium/tall in size and style. May, Turner and Lever along with Howes seems almost too much height so no need for Tmac as a back either.
Drop the weakest link. Lever.
 
It is the logical thing to do.
I guess that's why it won't happen.

Out: Lever, Salem

Salem is the slowest of all our defenders.
If the team is truly about the future (e.g. Tmac not getting games) then Salem is one who should be relegated to depth.

Like Lever it won’t happen because Goodwin loves Salem, but as you said Salem is so slow and it gets exploited by opposition.

Salem has had a couple of “nice” games this year, and a lot of “meh”.

His peak isn’t worth his limitations these days. Maybe only if the team is truly thinking premiership for 2025 which surely they aren’t now.

Makes no sense that goody is the same guy who dropped Jones, Jetta, Melk and Hibberd before big finals and now is completely spineless at selection
Who has the videos?
 
Lever and Salem are two guys who we could take out and make our defence quicker and better. They won’t drop Lever due to his leadership. I’ve said for years Lever needs a full preparation or he just doesn’t get near top gear.
Salem should have been transitioned out of the side. I thought AMW could be the guy. Now give Seaton a crack. But personally don’t see them dropping Salem. Especially as he hasn’t been too bad this season.
 
Just end the season already. No one giving two sh*** about this game.
they ****ing got me tho.
After Swans I thought gee whiz we're back here!!!
Then ****ing saints, only club who lost to West Coast and the game was over at quarter time. I turned the TV on saw Kozzie lazily aim for goal like a disinterested hungover father kicking the ball to the kids he doesn't like at the local park, knew right then we were done, saints kicked the next five. Absolute spuds.
 
Given Viney was a lock to come in that’s probably the most sensible change unless Lindsay, Langford or Windsor were labouring a bit.

I’m not sure who gets more forward minutes in place of Tholstrup. I along with many would want it to be Viney, but I’m worried it will be Koz. Probably a combination of Rivers and Koz doing less centre bounce work to accomodate Viney.

Maybe Langford plays a bit more forward?

Please play Viney forward. But also would be happy for Langford to move, especially if it meant Windsor to the wing and Lindsay back.

Probably Trac? Had 88% CBAs last week (averages 72% this year, inc. Pies game).
 
Looks like the 3 amigos are back together.

Get ready for bomb city. Oliver, Viney and Trac names as our starting 3 in the guts.

Brad Green would be salivating.

Yeah i was close to getting sucked back into believing. But reality is, under Goody with a mediocre list, we're going nowhere.

And our next 3 games all interstate kill us dead tbh. We're not beating the Crows or Suns away, and the Port game is 50/50 at best. Season was done when we got pumped by the Saints. Unbelievable we fought back into the season just to kill it off the way we did in Alice.
 
Don't worry guys, all is well.
We are in safe hands.

Max has been practicing passing the ball to Georgiades.

Lucky you!! They got me bigtime. Put my Garry Lyon posters back up, re-hoisted the red and blue flag in the front yard, even promised my child I'd take them to their first game to the G (no way that's happening now lol).

Playing finals would have been a huge step forward but we've cooked our chance by losing to absolute trash like the Bombers, North and now the Saints. Pathetic waste of a season.
