There will definitely be a late change for them. Corr, Taylor, Davis and Keefe is too tall, especially when it might be a little wet. They also have Tomlinson, Finlayson, Cameron and Himmelberg as talks, then there is Mumford. That is 9 taller players who are better in the air than on the ground.

Given we have only Moore, Grundy, Roughead, Mihocek and Reid, we should have at least 3 extra runners.

Grundy and mihocek are good at ground level and cover a lot of territory, so 5 extra runners:)

They have to get the ball first in the middle. And then they have to mark it.

We need to deny them those chances as much as possible and bring it to ground when it does go forward.


Exactly. Their tall forwards will only kill us if their midfield kills us. The absence of Colignio Dekedio Whitfield and Greene is obviously to our advantage but they still have a very strong midfield that can’t be taken lightly.

If you’re not in Preliminary Finals mode yet...

Thanks for sharing mate. Geez the commentators get salty when Pies dominate. Poor old Richo (who I actually like) you could hear the sadness in his voice toward the end of the first quarter.

Fantastic stuff, hopefully we can start that well tomorrow and get another win.

DeGoey was huge.

Wills is our talisman this year.
I thought Noble was?

Keefe in huh?

So are they gonna try and stretch us in defence again or will Keefe go to Reid?

Their defense already had Davis, Corr, and Taylor without even considering Haynes so not sure there's a spot for Keeffe back there.

GWS are going in with a VERY tall line-up. I think they'll be too slow and cumbersome, especially if there's a bit of moisture. Pies' line-up looks much more balanced by comparison.

Just got back from walking the dog. I passed a magpie sitting in a tree. It stared at me calmly. Proud, resolute and ready to unleash hell.

Go get them boys, Grand Final 45 awaits.
More likely it was looking for you to turn your back then swoop onto your head and gouge your eyes out in a way that Toby Greene could only dream of doing.
