I get the feeling the only chance we have of winning this week is by playing as much leg speed as we possibly can, might give us a good opportunity to rest some players and play as much genuine pace as we can, about the only time StKilda have been troubled at the dome is when they have been outpaced, i for one will be pretty upset if we drop players like Matty White this week, Foley has to come back in! im guessing a few might be rested after the slog last week, we cannot afford to go in their with a sluggish team and get belted we must be as competitive as we can be

Agreed. Thats how the Bombers beat them just because they have pace to burn and they have been doing that with most of their games in particular the ones they have won. Adelaide were the same for 3 qtrs than they fell away like we did against them. We have to manage the speed for 4 qtrs so we dont tire out in the last and get run over like Adelaide did.

Agree also. We need a fresh fast unit, not a potentially sluggish one. Foley and Rance would be good inclusions.

Spot on, speed is the key, and our ability to control the resting ruckman deep forward, plus Milne (prick always playing us), and Scneeeiiider.
