Tough game. We have a poor record against the Crows in Adelaide. Will not be easy.

Out: Mansell (not up to AFL standard), Short (sheep dog; hates the contested ball, Danny has made him redundant)

In: Clarke, Cumberland. If Sonsie is fit bring him in for Ross.

Let's get some additional dynamism into the team.

At the very least Juddy has to come in we need foot skills and pace and a bloke that can kick goals.

If fit enough I wouldn't mind Sonz in the mix even as sub.

Mansell strong chance to lock down Rankine or Rachele, which may have been why he played last night for continuity.

Dimma badly wants the nigel project to succeed

Ryan for Miller
Clarke for Mansell
Sonsie for Ross

Not sure when Taz is back , however wouldn’t mind seeing Biggy or Young come in soon.

Just didn’t look like a balanced 22 last night

Out Mansell in Cumberland
Mansell as a stopper The only thing he is stopping is us kicking a winning score
Dimma stop selecting useless *smile* that have no impact in the forward line

Those hoping for Cumberland to come back in (myself included) may be disappointed for a few weeks. They are trying to re-program him in the reserves like they did with Dan Rioli, Caddy and a few others. They want him to learn another position that doesn't mirror Dustin Martin's position. What that position is, I have no idea.

What’s this Hooch crap about Cumbo plays same position as Martin
so instead of Cumbo playing we prefer to penalise ourselves and play someone who’s not AFL level (Mansel)
It’s stupidity at its finest

I saw the first 3 quaters of vfl and Cumberland was playing as a high forward, I thought he went pretty well

Honestly would’ve thought the best thing would be from him to add defensive pressure to his game. Add that and you’ve got both an elite small/medium forward who still pressures the oppo defense

I'm on McIntosh watch over the next few weeks. I want Juddy in the team and McIntosh could be my angle.

question marks could be on Graham and MJR , lots of ice after the game , how will Pickett pull up ?

then we have , can we get upgrades on Mansell & Ross

thought Miller did enough to keep his spot

Would love to see Jack and Cotchin rested a few times this year.
We need to get games into Ryan, Clark and the Sonz.
The list needs rejuvenating.

They had all pre season to achieve this.

No-brainer. Immediate injection of class.

Cumbo won't be in given Dimma's comments about one step back to take two forward.

Na. I was a previous K Mac critic but he and Marlion are as crucial as anyone in our side. Their toughness and running ability make them the best wing conmbo in the comp IMO. They ain't going nowhere.

I think Ross & Mansell are the 2 at risk as long as no injuries.
