Will be a 40 plus point win, hopefully no injuries and Charles to boot a bag.

Blues by 140

One thing we have done this week is reward VFL form. Motlop and Hewett were a must. Carroll, while the jury is still out on him, earned a recall, and Sam Durdin

was the best of our VFL defenders. Cuningham also showed form and played good minutes.

Marchbank has been consistent...in his unavailability.

I kinda want H to kick a bag and win the Coleman.

H is in career best form this season…you watch him play a blinder today with 5 minutes per quarter up the ground in the ruck

Someone called marchbank a Rolls Royce this week, sorry much more of a Lancia

Range, always breaking down

 

[athensblue]

Simple, just win

 

[Lukeblueboy]

Just gotta bank the win today!
It’s a really important game this one.
North love playing marvel and will throw everything at us.

Bounce the ball ffs

Could we wrong, but 5 changes feels like a knee-jerk. Yes, 3 are forced, but I don't think we should've made two omissions on to top of them. Feels a little drastic to me.

Six changes now, from last week. Four forced.

Like the inclusion of Nige, hoping he can completely dominate Teakle. I think he will do a solid job and just maybe, he could become that big, strong key back to support Weiters that we have been crying out for.

Could see quite a few changes from this team, to the team that plays Friday night against Port. We will most likely not be picking six inside-mids against them. Player's will know that they need to perform today, as their are others breathing down their necks.

North have really improved over the last few weeks and Fish will be trying to prove a point. However we really should win by plenty and Charlie will kick seven.

I hope you meant "Lada", as Lancia's are very highly regarded as the 'poor man's Ferrari'.....just saying

Ladas are highly regarded in Russia too

I dare say we are managing the group to have as good of a team as possible for Port. Boyd and Gov may have played had it been a must win game

Triumph Stags are the Cunners/Marchy's of the car world.
A thing of beauty when they're not in the garage.

 

[Bokan]

A question for the list watchers..

Why do we think Jack Martin is emergency, but Ollie and Cotters are playing?

Surely he is an upgrade on one of those two given recent form? A viable avenue to goal and x factor, seems strange to me unless there is something I don't know.

Thanks. Fair enough, good analysis.

Played somewhat managed minutes in the VFL last week, assume full game this week and then likely in?

will be playing. Good luck to him.

We’ve been incredibly fortunate with results going our way over the past couple of weeks. It’s time to hold up our end of the bargain. The opportunity of a generation stares this group in the face. I hope they make the most of it.

He does deserve it. Might be a benefit to both him and Charlie

Additional confidence for him & Charlie can move on from his streak which I think may be affecting his game

Good messaging... felt that the changes we've made the last couple weeks sent negative vibes, this is definitely more positive

Hahaha not this again...

Still don't get what point he wants to prove, he was contracted and opted to leave rather than earn a spot...

Charlie is the type of player that should be aiming for Norm Smith’s, not Coleman’s.

 

[Loose at HB]

We've missed a couple of opportunities to really secure ourselves in the last fortnight.

Results have been kind to us again this weekend and this is an opportunity we should make the most of. Get ourselves a game clear of 4th (assuming the Lions win at home vs Sydney today) - a loss this afternoon is inexplicable and inexcusable

Blues by 43. Charlie to kick 6

 

[GoBlues!]

North have improved since R13 and are playing much better than when we met them in R3.

A lot will depend on how well our midfielders respond from last week, we won the hit outs against the WB 49-37 but didn’t take advantage and the clearances ended up even. We were also ahead in disposals and marks but got beaten in I50 56-47.

I’ll be happy with a win by any margin.
