I knew it.
Scott has brought back Ratagula back for this game because he took those marks against us last year in home and away game.
Bringing him back to ruck because Stanley was sheizen last week.

They want to double team Nank, and they probably cant take Blicavs out of defence.

Geelong's team is the oldest ever, pending the naming of the sub.

Just hope we can get off the LWLW rollercoaster without it taking a special effort.

Jakey Aarts lucky being saved by injuries.

Would've been making way along with Ross if the skipper and Grub were fit.

Is running out of time.

George needs to lift also.

@LeeToRainesToRoach is that their oldest team ever..... or THE oldest team ever?

The oldest, full stop. But since the sub is considered to have played no matter whether he actually gets on the ground, the average will come down regardless of which of the four is chosen as the sub.

Settle down. Esava's only been named as an emergency; just like CCJ for us, so looks like they can only be the sub at most. Scott would have to drop someone else to bring him in late. Stanley? Or a small?
Seems doubtful in a night game at the G in May.

However, Ratugolea played well with strong marks and converted for goals that match so he can pose problems for our squad missing Grimes and with Nank sole ruck. I'd make CCJ sub if they choose ER.

Cats playing the fastest side in the world, so they drop their 2 fastest players :bash

I think Scott may be about to jump the shark.

Thanks for all the work you do @LeeToRainesToRoach. ...... I notice Baker is named at centre half forward.... Surely you have a list of shortest arsed CHF's amongst your plethora of files?:cool:

If we had our full complement we would smack them off the park. Tomorrow night might only be a 2 goal game.

He's keeping Stanley in the team to 'bring the ball to ground'. ... last time he touched it against us he did that really well I thought!

Who is this Dusty fellow?
After last week's team performance he might just be surplus to requirements.

Our record is not great when we come up against the team we beat in the Grand Final the previous year.

2017 - We beat Adelaide and then lose to them in 2018
2019 - We beat GWS and then lose to them in 2020
And both interstate.
