Changes vs Port Adelaide

Let's not throw the baby out with the bathwater.

We played well tonight. Not much would have needed to go right to get the win over last year's prelim finalists.

Not losing half our backline would have helped. Bolton waking up from his snooze. Mansell being able to convert from 3 metres. Not having a 5 day break that took out Prestia. Not having another - 10 free kick differential. Any of those.

Out: Young, Gibcus, Prestia.

In: Miller, Kosi (full back), Sonsie.

Why the *smile* was Prestia picked in the first place, given his soft tissue history. Makes no sense

Out- Prestia gibcus young
In - miller brown sonsie/mccauliffe

Allows balta to stay forward

Balta/lynch will be a hard duo to stop this year.

Mansell and MRJ have benefitted somewhat from injuries to our kids. They've had a fair head start in terms of opportunities but the pack is closing fast. Clarke, Sons, Green, Coulthard, Cumbo, Campbell. The clock is ticking for them.

You keep 1 tackle
mansell and 4 possession MJ?

both players taps provided goals, MJ block also provided another goal. Pressure running around lead to turnovers. We need these types of players for linking. I also agree if increased possessions will make them better. if we don't have the run in the forward line, the ball gets to the opposition's end too quickly.

Acknowledge the efforts and defensive work, but we have a very different view about what is required in an AFL forward line, fair enough
 
A good way a foward creates pressure is to stop the opposition by actually also getting hands on the ball and goaling ..haha
