OK - only option is to go all-out ballistic attacking football.
Back-line is on an intravenous drip and rucks/mids are in rehab.

Forward-line still looks very dangerous - let's see if we can torch the scoreboard.
 
Who would you have in their roles tugga ?

In terms of retirements, probably Houli at the end of this year, Sheds at the end of next year, he will turn 34.

Looking at the stats, looking at the data, most of the dynasty clubs win three.
Three premierships seems to be the limit, the threshold.
A five year gap for Hawthorn from 2008 onwards.
The only other club I looked at closely was Brisbane from 2001-03 and that was a strong side.
That team was choc full of talent.
Maybe this is a "reset" sort of year, we recalibrate with four draft selections in the top 30.
Dimma has been referring to the draft horizon already.
Key position forward, defender and two mids.

I thought Garth had been spending time forward in the VFL?

This seems very much to be just a fix it in and shove him in. Would've thought Miller more appropriate to come in and play KPB and might be a better second ruck support too.
Miller is injured.

Not exactly Chariots of Fire with Astbury and Garthwaite in the back line.

Hopefully our midfield pressure with slow the Pie's ball movement to make it easier to intercept.

Hopefully was the key word.
It sure is.

I think that considering who isn't available, the midfield named is pretty much as good as we could hope for. Let's hope (there's that word again) they can produce the same energy as the GWS game, where we had a similarly inexperienced midfield.

Is this some kind of sick joke or is Dima officially insane?

Castagna and aarts both remain in team after being absolute liabilities for weeks now…. They don’t even tackle anymore let alone kick a goal ffs

Parker back to back 10 tackles, spark and mongrel.. nope not worthy according to Mr.hardwick

I'm pretty excited to see how all the young blokes go.
Garthwaite, Chol, Dow, Collier-Dawkins, Naish, Mansell plus Stack, Rioli back in...
Really need strong games from our experienced players, Martin, Cotchin, Reiwoldt, Grimes, Lynch, Astbury, Bolton and Short in particular.
Pickett, McIntosh, Baker and Graham will give their all as usual.
Castagna and Aarts really need to fire up.
Five weeks ago was confident we'd win this easily... now I'm just hoping for a win but don't really expect one.
That's ok though, it's where we are at in this moment in time, the future is still bright.
