Backs: Boyd, Weitering, McGovern
Half Backs: Kemp, Saad, Newman
Midfield: Acres, Cerra, Cottrell
Half Forwards: Williams, McKay, E Hollands
Forwards: Owies, Curnow, Fogarty
Followers: TDK, Walsh, Cripps
Int: Cowan, Cincotta, Martin, Kennedy
Sub: Fantasia

It comes down to three positions in my mind.
Martin, Kennedy, Cottrell, Motlop, Fantasia, O Hollands - They're in the mix for the last spot.

Bold are almost locks within reason and the other three positions are up for grabs along with a sub option.
I would prefer a dynamic player as sub come finals time, Fantasia, Motlop would be great options or a Hollands.
 
IMO I think we play better with TDK as the main man
He’s become a weapon but as for trying to squeeze in the others
What a great problem to have
Where we have improved is our bottom 6 I reckon, they used to be bloody ordinary, now they are very decent 💪
I think the past month TDK has shown he can run out games as first ruck with someone else chopping out.

While Pitto ruxking by himself is solid in itself, TDK & Pitto is another solid option, TDK as sole ruck is on another level.
 
Realising our default sits in doubt & fear (the trauma based mentality we carry), albeit dissipating with each win, I don’t see us losing this GWS game.

GWS are playing poorly, they can’t score, their 1-wood that is fast transition (tsunami) is broken, with little confidence, scoring less from their back half than ever. They’re missing their defensive lock in Taylor, a big piece missing.

Conversely, our points scored from D50 has never been so good, our efficiency up forward and spread of goals is amazing, our midfield is explosive & strong, our defence capable of plugging dam walls when needed, behind a team defence that is built on 4 qtr pressure.

It’s hard to think beyond the emotional (traumatised) middle brain, but these differences are real, our individual & collective ability is being realised.

We will win this game by 30+ points.

Charlie & Harry will be too much for them to handle either resulting in direct goals or a spread to those around them like last week.

It’s a beautiful thing to watch!

Can't have success without disappointment, we used to get told around finals time. If you got good players missing out, it's a good problem to have.
Unfortunately, those that miss will get hunted by other clubs.
