Who gets the Crowley Tag?

Has to be Lewis,the guy is having an AA year.

Restrict Lewis and you'll be halfway to taking B Hill and Sheils out of the game IMO.

burgoyne or smith IMO
MDB to run with birchall

True but you could say the same with restricting Mitchell.

Smith

I still think Mitchell is in for a chance. His kick is very accurate especially in the way he can spear it. I think it's a question of run and carry or premium delivery. hawthorn being such a fantastic kicking side that's what we will shut down.

You look at any teams that have come close to beating Hawthorn this year, or at least stayed with them for a predominant amount of the match, and they have all tagged Lewis. Mitchell maybe (hopefully) still not at full match fitness to go head-to-head with Barlow or Fyfe - although Neale may be a good match up. Forward tag on Birchall by Mayne. Not confident De Boer will be in the team, but if he is, maybe send either him or The Goo to Hodge.

Excellent, so far we have Crowley, Mzungu, deBoer, Mayne and Stephen Hill (!) as defensive players in addition to our back 6. That's 11 of the 18 on the field, surely we can squeeze a couple more in? Or we could try and make guys like Birchall and Burgoyne accountable by putting attacking players on them rather than trying to tag them.

DEFENSIVE PRESSURE!!!!

I'm not sure Mitchell's worth tagging at the moment. He's not as dangerous as he was last year. I say start Crowley on Lewis, and if it looks like Mitchell's getting too much of the ball, swap to him.
