Changes vs Collingwood

Motlop’s best is the best of all the potential candidates, and will at the very least force Bucks to try and cover him with someone decent. I’d hate to see Rozee given the sort of attention that would have been otherwise reserved for Robbie.

People need to realise the likes of Motlop exist to win games at the death, to have the nerve in situations like the Showdown.
The likes of SPP are for the grunt work.
 
That's the thing as much as he gives me the shits he's capable of coming in and playing a blinder.. he really has been bog average in the SANFL and doesn't deserve to be picked.
It's really disrespectful to everyone busting their guts when players play absolutely crap at the lower level. That's why I dislike Impey.

He has a big sook because he's dropped and then is gifted a spot in an AFL final and pisses all over that chance.

If you are dropped I want that you breathing fire and tearing games apart to get your spot back.
 
So with Cox Out/Ried In, I'd be looking at the below as primary match-ups:
Clurey -> Mihochek
Howard -> De Goey
Lienert/Burton -> Ried
Houston -> Phillips

He's also the only outside mid who can play in the middle and forward like Gray.
Drew can play in the middle, outside, up forward and at half back.
 
Motlop should not even be considered. Missing for large periods of the game then bobbed up late when the game was over to pad his stats.
I thought he was alright and very effective by foot. His first quarter was terrible, but after that he was alright. Definitely not setting the world alight, but not as bad as people are making out.
 
Howard is the only one who can match him for speed, and he can out-reach him. It's a match-up I'd love to watch tbh.

I think Howard is best matched up on marking medium forwards that he can beat for speed and height.

DBJ? Burton?
 
Cox is a big out for them it leaves grundy on his own to deal with ryder/lycett. Reid has hardly played afl in the last 3 years and is past his best and even though he has been a good foward in the past he cant do ruck duties in the foward line like cox would. We can exploit here

Didn't Howard thrash Ziebell last year?

And Clurey is in All Australian form.
 
Cox out is a huge loss for them considering how well our Rucks are playing. We seem to be able to win the mid-field battle but what we need is for youngsters to start kicking those goals that are tough to kick but within range of their capabilities. I think it will come together and if we are to win it needs to be this week.

Finally, for all those who trashed Frodo, and said they never want to see him in a Port jumper again, I love how his crticism has gone quiet considering that he has been one of the best players over the last two weeks.........

I also think that Listening to Travis Boak talk about why he didn't go back home. He said that, "I have family at home but I also have family here" and "there is something special about this club" and "not many want to leave". Just little sound bites but when you think about the service that some of these guys bring to the club and create the culture, Travis Boak is Port Adelaide through and through.

It may just be gas, but i'm pretty sure its confidence.

I think our midfield can match them, I think our forward line can kick more goals than theirs and I think our defence can stop them kicking more goals than us.

Or its gas.
