Easiest and Hardest Match Committee of the year I reckon.

Easiest = Out: Short In: Caddy (stack goes back) * subject to VFL form.

Hardest = In: Nank Out: Mabs or Ivan ?

A week ago I thought it was easy but Ivan was pretty colossal today, although I think Mabs is the type Id couple with Nank?

Ivan has been impressive and well done to him but he’s done his job and Nank comes in for him.

We can't afford to play fancy against the Scum.

No we cannot they will just hold us up at contests and buy time to let them set up behind the ball.

Stoppages will suit them with Grundys dominance in the ruck.

We will want to run but they will want to play keepings off as they have done the last 2 times they have belted us.

We have to pass and play like we're stoned. 100% full concentration and composure, no fancy rubbish.

We can't afford anyone insipid against the Pies. If Nank has a good run in the VFL consider him for Soldo, but I'm tempted to keep the Soldo/Chol combo against Grundy.

If Nank is ready to go he comes in for Soldo.

Apart from that it's just structural changes that are required

We do have to run the Chokers off the G though.

Just have to be a lot smarter about it.

Injuries in 2017 conspired to necessitate a change in game style, fair to say that there is a slight change up in our game style, its run and gun moreso utilising a higher team skill set as opposed to the former slap, tap, and scrap forward with a higher degree of possession.

This has been more possible as we have a higher skill level across the park.

after watching Mummy and Simpson wear down Grundy (mummy bullied him in the last),

I;d be inclined to go with some Croatian support for Nank next week

Ivan, not Notorius.

at the risk of sounding racist, Croations are tough *smile*

Not that the South Sudanese are shrinking violets. :cool:

Does Rioli hold his spot? I haven’t watched on TV but at the game mainly noticed him when he didn’t go for it vs when he had it. Nice goal in the last seemed to spark his confidence a bit though and he had a spring in his step in the last ten minutes.

I hear he will only play a half on Sunday so maybe Nanks will need another VFL run out before resuming his rightful place in the firsts. I think you are right about the Soldo / Choi combo as it worked well today

We are humming nicely at the right time.

Only guy I'm not a fan of is Graham - inclined to bring in Caddy for him if hes fit.

Need someone to drop into the backline on Cox (if he plays). Ivan is the man.

Cox is out of form - 4 or 5 possessions today (or not many anyway) and kicked a bag of donuts (zilch, none, zero, not a penny ).

Play to our system and I am not worried about cox.

I would like to see KMac come in but not sure who for?
