Thinking this too.

Corr to McKay
Dawson to Curnow
Ziebell to Silvagni or Cripps when he goes forward
Goldy to drop into the space with hugh/chom rucking the fwd half.

But what do we do when they also have DeKoning fwd...?

Bonar has to also play. It’s going to be a makeshift back 6, however we need all hands on deck.

 

[Psicosis]

For any chance of a "Carltoning" this week, we need LDU & Jy back + Logue to be cleared. If there is any side that can lose the unlosable, it's the baggers.

That happens, there is a hope.. a chance...

 

[Moti]

Thinking Bonar would be a good addition as backup if Dawson plays. I have not seen anything from Dawson so far to suggest he is up to the task but hopefully he looks good

 

[roos_fanatic08]

I wouldn't mind both Bonar and Dawson, gives us a bit of flexibility. As much as I want to pump games into them Goater or Bergman could easily be up for a rest, particularly with all the travel we've already done.

[Elite Master]

I see Tucker maybe replace Logue

Would greatly prefer that.

Has the game sold out?
afl members, mcc members, general admin can’t get tickets

Think it’s club members only

I’m guessing it’s open only for Nth members today and then opens for others tomorrow??

 

[Errol Street]

Cant you just walk up and use membership on the day and sit on lvl 4?

I think tickets have been on sale for club members for a while.

They usually don’t leave it this late.
Interesting to see if it’s fully ticketed or if level 3 is open to general admin

Agree, play them both, we need every shot we’ve got defensively.

Forward line won’t be an issue if the midfield can get on top

[Makeshift Park]

Those in the know, track watchers, and prophets: how likely is Bmac’s return this week?

 

[SMaturin]

I predict Bonar will be a forced in and forced to play on McKay or Curnow.

The result will be predictable and Bonar will be roundly abused on here for not being an effective full back.

 

[Passmore]

0%

 

[shinboner magic]

I’d rest ziebs and bring in Dawson to add to logue / corr - we need extra height

 

[HELLSBELLS]

Is the North end reserved bays ticketed or first in best dressed ?

 

[Makeshift Park]

0%

Oh bugger. I though they said he was due back this week or next.

 

[Passmore]

Oh bugger. I thought they said he was due back this week or next.

Irish Kev said 2 to 3 last week. Well that’s what I think he said. Can be hard to tell.

 

[franjon]

Yep. No point worrying about our undermanned defence. Time to double-down on the gamble of midfield dominance.

Jy has to get the entire midfield group breathing fire if we are to be in any way competitive. I want 100 mauling tackles. I want Chom and Turner creating mayhem for their good HB extractors. We need to be on on field but more than that, AC needs to be able to make changes during a term. He was way too slow in shifting his system on the weekend.

This is not just an ordinary game. Any fire we receive from the media after a loss with be amplified threefold with this game. We need to remain competitive.

I do, but I don't. They'll just start doing their usual and start paying free kicks.

 

[muttley45]

Is young Arch any chance of a game ? they have a few smalls to be minded, Owies, Durden, Motlop etc

McDonald, Goater, Sheezel and Bergman will have their hands full but it will great for their development.

I would really love it if they can get onto the end of some intercepts and really punish their direct opponents on the rebound. Keep them accountable.

 

[remfan101]

When does GA seating usually go on sale?

 

[Ischenko]

Ziebell will be crucial if we are to win this. Needs to intercept and provide drive with his kicking, especially with how undersized we are down back. Bring enough pressure in the midfield, force ragged entries and allow Z to stand in the hole.
