Yeah he’s actually been great in the ruck this season. We were all melting pretty hard when he gave Nank and Soldo a bath earlier this season. Since then he’s shown it wasn’t a one off. Hopefully Nank gets into him physically this week
Miller is the perfect back up this week to compete against Finlayson, though Port have been playing plus 1 at stoppage since he has become their ruck, so his impact may be a little overstated also
 
As a few have already mentioned, it’s probably a blessing in disguise with Grimes. Don’t rush him just let him recover fully for a strong preseason
Yep, he's seemed out of sorts ion the back half of this season. Some really uncharacteristic errors. Give him an extended break I reckon.

We have a great defense but have been leaking goals left right and center all because we don't play them where they should be playing. Weird how we won last game when Baker and Balta went back for the second half. Dimma still loves experimenting with failed experiments :(
Yeh like Rioli going back?

Poeple love to shit on moves that don't work but completely forget that they do pay off at times and are never going to have a 100% success rate.

Balta going forward is particularly one that's silly to criticise. We literally had only Jack as available tall forwards with Lynch out yet have more mid to tall defenders than we go play.
It's not just about best position, it's about who we have available.
 
Balta goes back and Miller plays second ruck. Wouldnt be bringing in Gibcus for Grimes
We normally play a 7th defender, so Baker (Mr fix it) goes back...Balta, Tarrant, Broad, Vlustuin, Rioli, Short, Baker

Ins: Roli Jnr,
Outs: Grimes
Weird looking at that backline lineup. The elite combo of Rance/Grimes/Astbury is long gone.

wow just saw the main board gameday thread

never seen so many scats fans in one place first sticking the boots in and then melting after we came back

rent free and desperate to have a rivalry with us
They need to engage collective mind. Go for a bus ride with newspaper on the windows and blast out the Richmond club song.
 
just checked the adelaide weather again and of course its going to be dry now in the evening for the game

lessens our chances of winning

get fu*ked as umps will ream us if its dry like the adelaide game earlier on the year

I don't think trying Balta up forward was the mistake. Persisting with it for so long when it's obvious it's not working is the mistake.
