Maybe the subCan't see how NWM gets in to he honest.
Windy will stay in, but we either need someone to play time in the mid or as a pressure forward.
Neither role suits Nas and with solid games from Wood and McKenzie he won't take their spot surely.
See there's the problem.
The league bases the fixture on last years results and there's no way they can know for certain who is going to improve (fall of the cliff) the following year.
So there's not much else they can do.
PS We play Sydney (6th) twice but because they lost their elimination final they actually finished 7th and are part of the 2 grouping.
So the split is actually 8/7/7 which will be the same as others within our group.
Yeah imagine if they based it on the "experts" predictions for the upcoming year rather than ladder positions for the previous year. Look how that worked out last year with no one picking Melbourne to even finish in the top 8.That's always going to be the problem unless they totally rig the contest so that they know who will be strong the following year.
You "could" try to predict the year's performance , i'm sure it would be a great job for the boys. Footy Tipping next years results. Of course they'd sack the tippers every year when they get it wrong.
A grand final rematch would make sense. Its pathetic to give the Essendon drug cheats so much publicity.Yeah imagine if they based it on the "experts" predictions for the upcoming year rather than ladder positions for the previous year.

The one that really pisses me off are the need to factor in the "blockbuster" games which really skew the flexibility of the draw.
There is no way known that the ANZAC Day match would be less of an "experience" if it was played between the 2 best performed Melbourne teams of the previous year.
Yep I really want to see Mitchito given a chance for a few weeks.In the Mix: Exciting duo in line as Saints look to fill Steele's shoes
With St Kilda set to be without skipper Jack Steele and small forward Jack Higgins for its clash with the Crows, the opportunity now presents itself for several budding Saints to step up.www.saints.com.au
Destiny calling? If OWENS does get the run...which looks likely, after having a less than auspicious blooding in Round 1.....you think that he will be absolutely pumped to make the statement! This time i predict no such overwhelmed observation footy....he'll be all in! So excited, so much more than I imagined, to watch him do what we believe he can!

No thanks NWM would have more then a few kicked on him,Hill can be shakey there adding NWM into the mix would be a disaster.NWM to half back, Sincs into the mids?
Nah. Sincs has been sensational in that role. Would hate to lose his influence there. Not sure Nas would be the best replacement there, as yet.NWM to half back, Sincs into the mids?
Don't forget the advantages for luring free agents. Pretty sure roo has spoken about Eddie using games like that to try lure him across to the pies. It's no wonder teams like the big 4 find it easier to lure players to pick themA grand final rematch would make sense. Its pathetic to give the Essendon drug cheats so much publicity.
I never view anything "special" about the games. They are just another footy game but the AFL pay for a lot of free publicity for the clubs involved.

Yeah Chito may get his chance as well andnif so I'd be really excited tonsee how he goes. I feel Sincs would be our safest bet to rotate to the mids to help cover for Steele tho and Nas could kill it off hbf. Should be easier for him than WingNah. Sincs has been sensational in that role.

rather bring someone into the mids. Nas may have to wait another week - so be it.

Put Nas on the wing against Lachie Sholl for adelaide. similar players, lightly built but endurance runners with silky kicking. Will matchup well against eachother since neither is particularly dominant in body.Yeah Chito may get his chance as well andnif so I'd be really excited tonsee how he goes.

has there been a single match where people haven't called it a "danger game" or "the most important game"?I understand it, but it shyts me.
How long will it take for us to move past the "we're favorites so we will lose" or "danger game" whenever we play sides shytter than us?
When can we just be a good footy club?
Or we could put someone on him we think will be a t him rather than match it with him?Put Nas on the wing against Lachie Sholl for adelaide. similar players, lightly built but endurance runners with silky kicking. Will matchup well against eachother since neither is particularly dominant in body.
Why weren't they desperate to play well in front of their fans last week ?Huge danger game. Their midfield is pretty decent. They have good players in most areas of the park.
They've been very down the past few weeks but will be desperate to play better in front of their home fans.
I highly doubt we will smash them, it will be a grind and I'd be happy with any win here.

You can justify any game being important
hard to drop anyone after a loss to be honest. If Wood and Billings play more forward then NWM can take the wing.Or we could put someone on him we think will be a t him rather than match it with him?
Who would you drop from the wing rotation?
