Can’t see Martin getting up for this game.

Managed my arse. He tweaked something.

Miller much better match up for Goggles than Nyuon.

Nyuon is too reactive, too soft and too lightweieght for a KPD role at AFL especially against a monster like Cox.

Thats why Young was recruited as the club already rates him higher than Nyuon.
Hope you have your bib on craig , because that’s dribble :)) . Young is rated higher atm because his 24 and the rig of a 24 year old , hes not a string bean youngster

Biggie is better suited to learning in the ruck in the VFL where he can run and jump and follow the game.

When he gets bigger in body and starts clunking grabs as a roving athletic ruck then he will blossom even more.

Miller for Broad. He's got height so can take one of the taller forwards freeing up Floss to play the sweeper role which he does so well. Miller can also ruck, can and swing forward if needed and he seems to have endurance.
If Martin doesn't play surely Cumberland or Clarke come in

Martin going in for scans this morning with a 6 day turnaround makes him unlikely even if no sign of a strain.

Out Broad Dusty young
In Ross Clark Miller

I know clark wasn't super brilliant but screw it , get him in exactly the type we need.
Tough on young but think Miller might be better option to help out?
Ross meh

Looks like we go into this game without Broad, Hopper and Martin.
Good luck trying to win against the umpires love childs without those 3 players. But lets be fair.
After all they only got 34 frees to 15 against Port.
What's to see here?

Miller in for Broad.
That gives us Balta, Young and Miller down back- very tall.
If the Pies dont replace Mihocek with a tall (do they have any?) they would have Cox and McStay up forward and a bunch of small/mediums.

Structurally Broad (and Grimes) are very hard to replace, but I wouldnt be surprised if we go a small/medium.
Where did Banks play today? And why did Green miss?

Last hamstring awareness for Martin had him out for 6 weeks wasn't it but there was something not quite right or unclear on that one.

Out Broad, in could either be Biggie (does VFL form against Preston count?), or Ross to a wing with Kmac going back.

Out Martin, in Cumberland. AFL player. He’ll kick 3, minimum.

Out Broad / Martin
In Ross (as Biddiscombe says, plays on wing and Kmac goes back), Cumberland
