On the AFL app it has Powell Pepper as an out. Is this confirmed?
Uggh. It should be Sam Gray and Bonner out before SPP IMO. Spray is Ken's love child though, getting him out once in the team each year is borderline impossible.
 
Brisbane isn't fitzroy.

Fitzroy actually still exist in vic.. they play like div 10. ;)

Don't worry, I'm fully aware of the legal status of Fitzroy haha. More the sentimental idea with the Fitzroy jumpers they wear.
 
Sam Gray has played well enough to retain his spot. He had contributed in the middle as well af on the score board. When SPP becomes more accurate in front of the sticks, cleaner in general play and more consistent from game to game he'll provide more hurt factor.

One factor I feel we're all forgetting is that Dixon had straightened out our forward line. He leads even in crowded forward lines and destabilizes the opposition defense. He has stopped that easy rebound out of defense. He can out-body, lead or bring the ball to ground. He had been the biggest change. Without him we're stuffed

So we want to play him at AFL level because he outplayed a guy we delisted two years ago at SANFL level?
To be fair there isn’t much that needs tagging in the Sanfl.

SANFL-level player called up for the sole purpose of tagging a dangerous opposition player.

If this happens and FAILS, just like the ridiculous 'trying to be cute selections' we did against Hawthorn and Western Bulldogs, that both backfired, I'm going to go ballistic. Last week it appeared we had realised our mistakes and went back to conventional selections, but this would show we have learned nothing.
 
Not sure if Sutcliffe is the right player. I'm just looking at the fact that we're looking to shut down a player. Remember that Sutcliffe came from a dour team. Not every Port player knows the intricacies of tagging.

Houston did a great job on Kelly a few weeks ago and Kelly is in better form than Neale. Even if we want to tag Neale we don't need it to be Sutcliffe who does it.

I wonder whether the idea is that Sutcliffe would know more about Neale having played with him at Freo for a long time?

You'd hope so. Not sure it discounts the fact he hasn't played against an AFL-level player (with the exception of Adelaide) for nearly an entire year.

I'd say Surcliffe is on stand by to play Houston's defensive midfield role if Dan is still sick thereby maintaining our winning structure.

The last 3 weeks we seem to have finally made a change to maintain our structures through injuries, illnesses and lack of form.

Sam Gray gets a bad wrap on here and in the past may have deserved it, but anyone who can't see he is 1st 22 right now are not watching the right things. He gives 100% and the way he uses his body is tough as nails. He's adding a hardness to our team at the moment that we really need. Haters should just give him a break and watch his game objectively.

* Hope he doesn't have a shocker now I've said that

Heard Tim Giniver say almost the exact thing about Sam the other day. Said a lot of his good work goes unnoticed.
