That’s the only change for next game. Unless there’s an injury soreness. Three absolute players to come back are Edwards, Astbury & Prestia. Dow will drop out but other two are tough. Maybe Markov & Aarts.

Aarts played really well just shaded Castagna, id say he was best out of the 3 smalls in Rioli and Castagna. Last week Rioli was best out of them all. It ebbs and flows from these 3 but unfortunately, some will make way. Still have Caddy and Broad. I say Broad as Grimes will be back in 3 weeks, so he will be straight back in.

Lambert when he has a bad one he goes under 10 possies (9 disposals). Against port also had under 10 possies (5)
I think they won't rest Soldo as the bye is after the Freo game and good to get another hit out with Nank

Will be interesting to see what they do with Broad. If they are rewiring him for another role will they abandon that to play Grimes role? Or will they go out of the box and give Garthwaite a go?

Right now if I had to choose between Aarts and Rioli... Aarts for me.

Bring Caddy and Broad In.

Applying the KISS principle.

Out - Grimes (injured)
In - Broad

DTLD, Prestia & Edwards when they are available. Till then no other changes.

Dow plays again I hope.

otherwise Broad for Grimes the obvious change although Dow was a smokey for last night so wondering whether Dimma has one more smokey left in him for 2020.

Chol will replace Grimes as a key defender
I wouldn't think Chol has the smarts to play a defensive position in the Grimes manner right now. I know he has many attributes that would be useful but he has downsides for me ATM. We also can't afford a defender going missing at times.
