Couldn't even remember that game.

Didn't realise dead rubbers in 2022 carried so much weight these days :D
Lol, I'm not saying he must be picked, or going to war on it. I'm just saying there was talk of him getting smashed as 2nd ruck Vs Essendons rucks, but last time he went up against Draper he hammered him. It isn't a guarantee it'll happen again, it's just a fact.

I didn't remember the game at all, I looked back at 2023 but didn't think it was there because the ruck match ups in those games were memorable for all sorts of reasons. Draper did have 33 hit outs to 6 in that game, but Jez killed it around the ground.

Anyway he's getting another chance, hope he takes it.

Remember the days of when everyone were up in arms when we didn't select a side with both Lobbe and Redden?

So we're at round 4 and somehow already ignored:

  • a 1 disposal masterclass by superstar pressure small forward
  • the Lachie Jones show from last week

Substitute teacher vibes are strong this season
 
It will be interesting to see Lachie Jones responds to his selection.

I hope he has a great game.

The things I am interested in watching with the team are:

The midfield without Wines who is not as impactful as the Four Amigos
Lachie Jones and how he handles the tongs
How our 2nd ruck will hold up against two main Essendon rucks
What Georgiades brings to the forward line
Can Bergman make a bigger impact on the wing
Can Mead or one of the lesser lights stand up
Still interested in the tall backs but more confident of their games

Essendon have a lot of B grade quality to their team. I don't see a star at all.

We should win this one on cruise control.
 
If Ken reckons Georgi is playing half forward flank, then surely Jed is sub.

Feels like an experiment to me, especially with SPP back in next week

McEntee won't be sub.

Burgoyne will likely be sub again but if not it will be Mead.
