Gws will murder us in the midfield .
We have clearly patched up Duggan so he can play on Greene as we don’t have a good match up (except maybe Rotham lol)
We have Barrass and Gov to take their talls in Himmelberg and Hogan, Jones can play on Hill

I feel if we break even in the midfield and have nearly as many I50s we are a chance but that’s very unlikely
 
He’s an experienced forward and we’re short on forward options.

Do you want to play Hough out of position? Or abandon the Jones-in-defence experiment which seems to be working well? Or try to shoehorn someone else into that spot?

Honestly, I thought people would be arguing for Hough over Rotham or Nelson, but complaining about Cripps being in ahead of Hough makes no sense.
Hough would carve up Toby in the wet wouldnt he?

No Willie, no Ryan and no SPS means we are crying out for dynamic players up forward. Old king fumbles Jamie on one leg doesn't help us with that at all. Cripps out, Jones forward and Hough back doesn't mean we are abandoning the Jones in defence experiment, old mate. It just means we are doing what we can to develop our young guys, have some sort of x factor on the HFF and not play 30 year olds who weren't even in the squad one day ago.

He wasn’t in the squad because he had a leg infection. Apparently it cleared up.
 
Oscar is playing in Round 4 and Edwards will play WAFL minutes this week too.

I dunno, I'm happy our captain and norm smith medalist is back 🤷‍♂️

I think I've kinda reached this feeling of indifference where whatever the club does won't satisfy me or disappoint me, and unless drastic changes occur I'll continue on this course. Pretty depressing.

Yeah I get that.

But I figure having one of our best ever players will be good for the development of our younger players.

Idiots picking Nelson and Dixon on top of rushing back Shuey. Perfect chance blown to give the four youngsters an opportunity. Look at that bench of ours doesn't that just make you laugh.. or wince in pain..

Still not surprised, I've given up a long time ago with the match committee getting it right. GWS midfield will have a green light after every single bounce down, I think without their old coach no longer holding the Giants back it could get extremely ugly on Sunday but hey we are used to it by now!
 
I'm looking at the GWS team, and they look a little short down back. No Davis, no Haynes, no Keeffe. I think we can stretch them with our height.
Just got this pic of what the ground looks like currently.

Not sure our talls will help.

The rate we're getting injuries, Hough won't spend a full half as the sub before he gets a run.
A cunning plan emerges. I actually thing Nelson is a better choice against GWS in a very likely wet game rather than throwing Hough to the wolves. He is quite light still. Perhaps we are learning to play the long game.
