Not sure what the situation is with Hurley, Fantasia and hooker is, but if we stand a chance we need them all to be fit and ready to fire.

Hooker in particular is critical on the smaller SCG.

Plenty of pubs in Collingwood for you to go to after the game

Totally agree. To win interstate finals you need to be efficient going forward and I can't see that happening without Hooker and Fantasia.

 

[Mootsy]

Will need a lot of composure against the swans, need literally the best squad possible and damn good preparation..

 

[Bombermania]

In: Hurley, Hooker, Fantasia
Out: Laverde, Hocking, Colyer

Agree with this

With Laverde, I kind of feel that he just needs to overcome what appears to be a confidence issue because we know he has the talent and unfortunately a final isn't the place for someone just off in that regard.

Hocking was good today and would be unlucky but Hooker when fit is in the best 22.

Colyer, he does so much right as in he runs hard and creates space but his disposal is frustration and needs to be addressed.

[Mootsy]

You wouldn't leave Hocking in???

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

What about bloody Kennedy? need to do something about him always tears us a new one killed us in the last qrt to get the Swans over the line

 

[Milanista28]

Within 2 goals at quarter time and half time and it's on baby. Early is where their experience gets us survive that and we start to believe.

 

[scottmclaren]

Hooker and Hurley come straight in and Fantasia if he is 100%.

Outs are more difficult.

Hartley has been struggling, although he should be better with Hurley back in the side. But do we need him?

B: Bagley, Ambrose, Kelly
HB: Goddard, Hurley, Gleeson
C: McGrath, Merrett, Parish
HF: Fantasia, Hooker, Watson
F: Stewart, Daniher, McDonald-Tipungwuti

Foll: Heppell, Zaharakis, Bellchambers
I: McKenna, Myers, Colyer, Begley

If Hartley plays then I would think Begley is omitted. If Fantasia is not right then Begley is in.

 

[BigJoeD_]

I hope Laverde plays, I like the boy.
He's close to breaking out IMO

 

[Mootsy]

What about bloody Kennedy? need to do something about him always tears us a new one killed us in the last qrt to get the Swans over the line

I'd put Stewart or Myers on him, very hard to match up on, really need to strengthen our defensive efforts on the day.

Just a note on this. The Sydney Airport line is super expensive so this trip will cost you what looks like $16. Could be more worth it walking a little and getting a bus, though I'm not sure where from.

 

[Milanista28]

Congratulations guys we deserve this. Talking about an upcoming final that we're apart of, Are you kidding me is this real life.

OUT: Hocking, Hartley, Myers.

IN: Fanta, Hurley, Hooker

Buddah's unlucky, thought he was serviceable but unsure what role he'd get?

Myers is a liability atm. Sloppy disposal, bad touch/slow reaction times....he's not conducive to our quick game. Drop!

Hartley I know ppl like him because he frees up Hurley, but think he'z had a very ordinary 6-8 weeks. Got towelled up by a WAFL forward today....seems to get caught b/w knowing where his man is & ball is too often & has bad recovery time once balls below knees.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

We're a show. It'll be close, it always is against them.
