After such a great win, I don't see many changes happening.

OUT: Crozier
IN: Hill

That's probably it, unless Dawson doesn't get up, which gives Silvagni a go.
 
Sounds about right, possibly bring Kepler back in if fit?

I only just realised that the game is in Adelaide, I thought with the Derby being an away game for us we'd get the next game at home. Going to be REAL tough getting a win over there

Edit; also Ibbo should be ready for selection, all depends on how he trains because I don't see who would go out for him

Probably cop it from several people for this...

But i reckon bring ibbo in for sutty.

imo, sutty is a great young player, but he seems to not be confident with his kicks at all at the moment. I'd be keen to get him some confidence back in the twos.

The only reason for this is because our biggest issue at the moment is our kicking, it honestly is completely killing us and we just cant take as many poor uses of the footy against port because they will hurt us so much if we turn it over because of their run and spread.

Also bring hilly in for someone... dont know who though, de Boer responded well, suban had a strong impact and crozier played well as small forward. apart from his kick at goal.

I think Clancee might be the other change for Ibbo.

Dropping a player who finished with 25 possessions and was running at 80% disposal efficiency is crazy talk.
 
Dawson to get scans - he may still be okay.

Same with McPharlin. Need a classy, quick midfield for next week to match the Port side. And need to bring the intensity. Not going to be able to stop them passing it around, but can restrict the score.

Ideally, blow them open in Q1 like the Suns did today against North.

haha good point. i knew he had it 25 times but didnt know he went at 80%. from the naked eye i thought he made crucial errors but obviously I'm wrong

Nah you're right he did screw up a few kicks today, but I didn't think they directly cost us goals as they did in the Sydney and North games.
Also nice nickname by the way!! ;)
 
With Hill's history I'm not sure we can be overly confident he will play
The AFL can get stuffed with their scheduling - travelling 6 day break after a derby against another top 6 side from last year.

Absolute joke tbh.
Six day break followed by six day break.
Can't give us six day break so they give us nine day break instead so they can rinse and repeat.

As a non-vic hopefully Gillon gives us a better deal.

Just looked on the BOM site and showers are forecasted for Saturday in Adelaide,I hope it holds true.

Slippery,greasy conditions will assist us greatly.

Going to be a awesome contest!
 
I would honestly consider Keplar. Couple of good games in WAFL and key forwards don't need quite as much reserves time IMO. Will be handy to have a second genuine target
