6 Changes :-

 

[Arr0w]

Can he? Genuine question as I thought only someone on the bench could be named as the sub but not 100% sure.

Anyone in the 23

 

[BringFevBack2021]

There’ll be a late change for Pitto or TDK, one of them will go out

If TDK is fit, he’ll play ahead of Pitto

That means one of Carroll, Moir or Cinc comes in (hopefully Moir)

 

[Kernafides]

Club is such a joke, dropping all the young kids. Playing Cerra and two ruckman when we know it doesn’t work.

Unless tdk is sub

 

[Opium]

Stunned at the inclusion of Cerra. Bewildered even.

Make zero sense to name Cerra ahead of lord. What more could he have done? Cerra is a ticking time bomb

 

[Juice030103]

All the young players are out, but this is one of the best team we’ve fielded all year

On names yes, on form, injury clouds and speedy players/balance, one of our worst teams we have named


Hope to be wrong but wayyyy too many injury cloud players for mine

 

[Arr0w]

Side picked it to win it, rather than saving it

Bold, but I like it

 

[Sharks On A Plane]

lol Cerra

I think TDK will play predominately forward & pinch-hit in the ruck.
Gives us a second tall forward plus he gets some fitness back without having to play the whole match in the ruck on his own.
If we win, then you can bring Curnow in for Pitto next week.
Smart move IMO.

 

[Juice030103]

Is a do or die game so I understand the risky calls,

But surely they learnt their lesson after what’s happened with curnow

 

[BringFevBack2021]

Side picked it to win it, rather than saving it

Bold, but I like it

Yes agreed, would prefer we go in like this

I think Voss will play a very offensive game and go out swinging, rather than setup how we did late in the season which wasn’t successful

 

[Soapy V]

All the young players are out, but this is one of the best team we’ve fielded all year

On paper

 

[Foucault1989]

I agree Arrow. For better or worse we have to pick our best team. Cerra is in our best team.

 

[RAPPA]

All out attack with the 3 smalls named as well.

 

[Faucon Bleu]

We are a joke picking Cerra, wow.

 

[ITCHY EYEBALLS]

Cincotta out fmd

 

[Foucault1989]

Surely Fantasia the sub?

 

[Michael Jezz]

Those selections could only be made by a dumb football club. One armed Durdin, Docherty, Cerra, TDK and you don't pick for a final one of the toughest players on the list- Cincotta. Not one of the youngsters that provided energy to a deflated club was selected. Just kidding ourselves.

 

[M_I_G]

Cinco out
Wow
Some ‘brave’ selection decisions again

 

[Opium]

Match committee got sucked in by names instead of form.

 

[COACH25]

Strong side named the best side we could hope for. bring it on.
Pitto was never going to be dropped for TDK who is coming off a significant injury. Playing him forward is smart rotating into ruck.
And people who can’t believe Lord is dropped for Cerra. Are you serious?
Cerra back is a huge in for our midfield and when he is going he is very very good.
Lord showed some nice signs. But was fumbling one to two times around stoppage against saints. Imagine that against Brisbane in a final at the Gabba. Cerra is so much cleaner and experienced.
Overall solid team.

 

[Soapy V]

I agree Arrow. For better or worse we have to pick our best team. Cerra is in our best team.

Best team should be picked on form, fitness and combination.

I’d debate Cerra being in our best side at the moment

 

[Arr0w]

Suspect there will be some vigorous fitness tests Saturday morning, Cerra especially

Disaster waiting to happen

 

[RAPPA]

Cincotta out fmd

Really think that’s a bad move. He’s versatile and doesn’t shirk the contest. I could’ve stomached the kids getting dropped but feel like he’s the hardest done by

 

[xDQ82x]

Heard he wasn't playing. Sorry got confused.

I'm sure someone told me to take it to the bank that Charlie's was playing when I said he was out.

Let's see on Saturday. I'm still confident in my info. I'll also update it if it changes.

You know, a football club is fluid and they change their minds right? Maybe you should try it.
