That's astonishing. They haven't been that good. I remember the night we kicked 30 goals on them. OK it was 18 years agoWon 4/13 against them at Marvel and haven't beaten them anywhere for 7 years...

Berg & TT weren't (mostly) rucking against Marshall, and St Kilda's support ruck is a pygmy.ROB 7/52 taps to advantage
Himmelberg & Thilthorpe 3/12 taps to advantage... much higher rate!
Marshall 12/47
Time to try the Berg & TT combo.
If Soligo is struggling a bit with his groins, I’d love to see them give Rachelle a full game in the middle to get him involved.Wouldnt mind Rash playing a game just as a crumbing forward to the bear in the square, peppering the goals for a week

Who is out for Worrell?I'd like to see:
I think that's getting closer to not just a best 22 but also a team that has an eye to the future. Get Rankine back for Murphy and then keep a spot warm for Worrell and we're looking much better.
- Himmelberg out <-> Thilthorpe in (the 22)
- Smith out <-> Curtin in
- Cook out (sub) <-> Hinge in
Has to be one of Butts or Keane and the one that stays in needs to be better 1 vs 1. It's brutal but it's probably KeaneWho is out for Worrell?

Sadly our coaching makes sure we have the opposite structure.Wouldnt mind Rash playing a game just as a crumbing forward to the bear in the square, peppering the goals for a week

I hope Hugh Bond gets a good block of games. I was impressed by how sticky he was as a lockdown small defender. Feel like he could be very useful in our line-up.
That's a tricky one. You'd think Hamill, but he has 5 years on Bond.
Hamill did nothing wrong to lose his spot other then get injured. And I've only seen 1 game of Bond, and I think there's a lot to work with. So for me they are on relatively level ground until proven otherwise.
Good call on Luke Brown. Was a very underrated Crow and had some of toughest jobs in a generation of exceptional small forwards.That's a tricky one. You'd think Hamill, but he has 5 years on Bond.
And Bond looks like a better pure small defender. Something we haven't really had since Luke Brown.
Essendon don't have a pure small forward, perhaps running with Nic Martin might help with his education?I hope Hugh Bond gets a good block of games. I was impressed by how sticky he was as a lockdown small defender. Feel like he could be very useful in our line-up.
I'd play him on Gresham. Good match up.Essendon don't have a pure small forward, perhaps running with Nic Martin might help with his education?
Yeah good point. TBH if he wants an education maybe he could have a spurt or 2 on Zach Merrett.Essendon don't have a pure small forward, perhaps running with Nic Martin might help with his education?
Even if we pick the younger guys now, you know R1 of 2025 we will have Laird, Crouch, Smith, Murphy and probably an underdone Milera in the side.Team selection for the balance of the year must be done for 2025 and beyond.
Please get rid of Murphy, he is not and never will be AFL standard, you know your coach has NFI when he keeps picking a complete 100 game wasted spud.
I feel another honourable loss (we are the anti Pies) coming up, they are Nicks specialty
I disagree, now the finals are out of the question I don't predict honourable losses anymore.Team selection for the balance of the year must be done for 2025 and beyond.

Surprisingly I don’t disagree with any of this. Forgot about Hinge. Berg definitely unlucky but he was always warming the seat until TT came good. Smith out for Hinge I can live with. Do we have an Essendon player that needs shutting down? Be interesting to see what Bond can do if he doesn’t have a lock down role.
