I just meant there weren't stand-outs, no conspiracy! It's more like, if you have one tagger, surely it's just a dice roll as to who gets him. I can't really pick who is more tagworthy between Shuey and Yeo, while tagging Priddis just seems ... kinda pointless? Like trying to keep a pig out of mud. He's blue-collar like that.

Yea, but lets not fail to mention the silver service NicNat provides all your mids from the ruck. Tagging won't achieve much this week against any of them with the ruck dominace you have.

Its goina get ugly early, just a matter of how much you want a big percentage boost or to rest players in the heat really. I just hope you leave some junk time goals for us, if you could let us keep the margin under 100 points that would be fab. :thumbsu:

There really is no game, they are this negative about our team and our chances of winning every week! I think it's so when we lose they can say "we told you we weren't any good".

What did you say about Jack Viney?

One thing West Coast doesn't have is true star power. Normally, a curse, but it does have a wee bit of a benefit; there's no Fyfe, Dangerfield, J Selwood, what have you, that automatically stands out for tagging.

I'm being dead serious when I suggest Melbourne at TIO are a more credible threat than Essendon at Subi were.

A REVERSE-REVERSE-reverse jinx? What a doozy!

I think this has come so full circle that we're going to both have to start saying we'll win...

...or is that what they want us to do.. hmmm....

Feels like we're entering...




Actually that one says more about the Bombers than anything else.

I mean, you guys don't play a seven man backstop line at the centre square when you have the ball in attacking 50. ...do you?

What is this "forward" 50 you speak of? Care to explain? :$

Its the very very top of our defensive structure. That bit that Jeffy likes running into.

Definitely would not be difficult to justify keeping JKH back a couple more weeks. No harm in making everyone earn their spot and rewarding the guys in the team who contributed to a great win.

I predict very minimal changes.

Having said that, there are two almost given ins in Garlo (runs on board, in great form pre injury) and Hogan (hulk factor).

Really only toump I could feel justified in dropping. Changes will be quite interesting.
 
Seems like the mystery injury of the week keeps returning lately. Garland's hand, Grimes's thumb, Fitzpatrick's abductor, Hogan's hamstrings etc. I bet there'll be someone who pulled up sore or injures themselves at training during the week. Here's hoping their plane in the NT doesn't fill up with smoke and have to make an emergency landing ...again.

In the unlikely event that there's no random injury, Bail is a certain out for Garland. Couldn't drop Matt Jones after his 2 goals and work as a defensive forward, which probably leaves Toumpas or Riley. I like Riley as the sub tho. Even tho I love Toump, he may have to make way for Hogan.

Could potentially swap Spencer for Fitzpatrick given Fitz can also play as a defender and the Eagles go tall. If Kennedy-Harris were to return it'd have to be for Aiden Riley and he'd probably have to be the sub. Hmm. Some dilemmas (albeit good ones).

Out: Toump, Bail
In: Hogan, Garland
