I hope you guys have Kozi in the ruck but I think you should go with King and Blake as your 2nd ruckman. We would struggle to match up 3 quality tall forwards and Blake will probably struggle to find a suitable opponent tonight due to our structure.
 
Koschitzke will ruck with King i'd say.

Trying to get some form into Koschitzke and get his hands on the ball.


Michael Gardiner has a calf strain and will return in 2-3 weeks.
 
Good chance for King to prove he is worth more game time. I'd be playing Kosi at FF rotating into the ruck with Gehrig resting when Kosi is at FF. I think Gardiner's injury could be a blessing for your forwardline.
 
And here, here friends, is where we stuffed up most on Friday. Yes the forward line forgot it was playing, yes the midfield went for a 3-quarter nap. But here is where we lost it- before the ball was even bounced.

Raph should not have played. I know I said he should've, but I was without a shadow of a doubt, very, very wrong. The reason I wanted him to keep playing was to build up his confidence, but after that pathetic, woeful performance, I realise it has little to do with confidence, and all to do with will. He was a disgrace to the name of St Kilda Football Club in that game, when he should have rewarded the faith shown in him. He should never put the St Kilda guernsey on again.

Besides which, you don't replace an injured ruckman with a backman. You replace him with a ruckman. Rix should have played - he's not great, but he would have given King a breather, and that would have allowed King to do a better job of tapping to our midfield when he WAS playing. King got overused, and was wrecked by half-time.
