Last chance to audition for the finals so I would expect to see a few rested and replaced from T Boyd, Roberts, A Cordy, Hrovat, Dale, Daniel, Minson (unless papers marked :(), Goodes, Jong (although was bad today, reportedly. Still..).
 
I suspect that General Soreness will have quite a say in this weeks team selection.

The one thing that we have learnt during this years magical mystery tour, is that Beveridge is 100% committed to backing his players to do the job assigned to them. Regardless of the opponent. Be it this week or the next.

Can't really forecast who's tired but I'm in the Ross Lyon camp on this- I don't give a heck about form flirting, it's all about having every one fresh for week 1 of the finals.

Good week to liven up the squad and give Roberts, Daniel, Toyd, Ayce and maybe Jong a look at a spot in the team and have them fight it out like maniacs for the spot in R23. I'd consider resting a Stringer or Crameri to make Red and Boyd compete with eachother in the team, resting moz and doing the same with Roberts, hamling and Zaine, and resting one of Dahl and Dickson for Caleb because frankly he deserves a game off that vfl game.

It's hard to forecast but a good position to be in. Feed off competition for spots and be able to rest a few. Back Beveridge to be smarter at jagging a September win with a 2 week run up
 
I have seen a few post on here suggesting Hamilton could get a spot next week. Now Bev does not gift games, and based on Decs current form he'd be lucky to keep his spot at Footscray next week. He's simply not ready for the next step. He should look forward to a VFL finals series and his second preseason.

I wouldn't be resting a whole lot, we lose we could end up playing Adelaide in Adelaide.
If we win by enough we could overhaul Rich for fifth. Lions up there aren't the worst though. Don't think anyone has towelled them up totally at the Gabba and they have had some wins. So we will need to respect them

Got a idea for Toyd
Leave him out the squad for a week so he can play the first final against Box Hill, if Scray win means they have the week off then have him playing the first final against who ever.
Depending on that game, have him in the VFL prelim or Semi Final

thoughts?
 
It should be pretty obvious by now that we are about pace, agility, mobility and quality decision making. Putting Redpath and Boyd in the same team is exactly the sort of set up that we have been exploiting in opposition teams. No thanks. Just makes it too easy for opposition defenders to run off us. I hope we don't fall for the lure of more big men in the forward line.
 
Crameri was out on his feet by the end yesterday, he could barely walk and couldn't even kick straight. Don't know if it was sheer exhaustion or an injury. He should be rested this week
 
Crameri, Dahl, Bont, Dickson, stringer, out this week. Them boys need a rest

Redpath stays in, its too late for Boyd to come back in now imo. In finals when there will be more bombs into the f50 id rather red doing the one on one battles, Boyd just doesn't have the strength yet. Plus the intimidation factor of big red will be required.

I can see zordy came in this week to play the Morris role against the lions, he should get a good match up. Morris to be rested for Roberts.

Also too late to drop grant now, we go in with the main players that got us here unless they really need a rest.

Want to see Daniel as our sub in the finals so maybe he can come in for Honeychurch.

I'm worried about roughy, just looks really sore out there
 
Crameri, Dahl, Bont, Dickson, stringer, out this week. Them boys need a rest
That's like all our firepower. Be a very strong chance to lose if we did that.
 
Rest crammers and play grant forward give cd another run (he's our ideal finals sub). We aren't good enough to toy with form need the win (and I live in brisbane so I'll be going and I'm selfish)
