How to look up pressure points/acts from games? Would be interested to see where Graham ranked there. Only 14 touches but 7 tackles and I'm sure he applied plenty of pressure. It'd be mad to drop him. For me, if it's just Dusty, then Menadue is the one that comes out.

Martin for Castagna.
That’s all she wrote.
Riewoldt is not going to play.

Was a woeful kick from only 20 metres away and I understand the human element and the pressure but MacIntosh has played over 70 games and ought to be able to hit a target from where he was, the ball drop was terrible and he mucked it up completely. Broad's effort was poor as well, he seemed to run around the ball, he just had to grab it decisively and do something with it. I'm sure I heard Benny Hill music playing in the background when that 10 secs or so unfolded.
The due is quick makes good decisions and hits targets.... I’d keep him
Overall it was a poor piece of play but I'm loath to hang a player for a mistake. Others are not so forgiving around here. To think that players will hit their target every time is simply unrealistic. If that happened then no one would ever miss a shot on goal... Lambert Rioli Baker
2 players will be out according to Hardwick.
Houli back, so most likely Menadue, who else.
Martin, must be a mid.... probably Baker, last in first out. Both unlucky with quite a few players on notice.

Graham is going great as per usual. What is interesting to note is Ross is only 4 behind on pressure acts & sh#t loads ahead on disposals. I wish Garham could find a bit more of the ball

lol @ Pacal being a reptilian
George i would go so far as to say set the tone with his hardness at the start of the previous game
that said Baker would be very stiff to get dropped
I am a bigot but look you can only carry so many tiny players. Its hard to win the flag with a pack of short people (again)

might be time to go to specsavers
I agree Balta will go out when JR comes back. And this week, I would have Balta in my rotations on Buddy with Broad & Grimes.

agreed
yeah hardwick will drop him and probable Stack, Higgins, Ross types too (eventually)
As a player he is far more skilled no doubt. But George is a strong body that provides probably our best defensive pressure, above Graham from where I sit due to his pace and ability to close down space.

It will graham (rested) most likely back in for Melbourne game..
And most likely menadue which is a shame cos this kid has a lot of potential and just needs a good run in the afl side

like blaming gatting for the gatting ball
Different types of good. R23 2014 was was the most joyful win. Sat dead still for 3 quarters and paced around the kitchen for the last. The only time I’ve ever been anywhere near as nervous was the 17 QF. When the siren went phwoar what a feeling. Clearly the best after a H&A game.
But I reckon Saturday was a better win. Swans were a tougher opposition than Port even without Buddy but they had top spot locked in, no real incentive to win as long as they played alright. Meanwhile we were absolutely flying and near full strength.
Saturday night we had our backs to the wall, missing our absolute best players, and it was no dead rubber for port either. Plus it was on ports actual home ground.
As a whole they’re impossible to compare. Brilliant wins for very different reasons.
better than not even getting there with a bunch of tall no-hopers n'est pas?
the 'chicken little sack hardwick we're ****ed fold the club burn down punt rd' brigade built this game up to mean more than it does
we're 2-2 and histrionics & hyperbole don't count for much in my book
win 17 of the next 18 and win the flag....then this game takes on greater significance

Quality analysis and informative rebuttal. Thank you.
I dunno
I’ve always remained pretty confident in our flag chances but we were missing a lot of players last week. I thought we’d improved significantly vs GWS but still lacked polish and confidence, so my gut feel was that we’d be competitive just lack game winners. As it turned out a whole host of ‘role players’ showed that they are capable of far more than that. In the Sydney win R23 2014 did we really learn that much? Across the whole streak we did but in that win, I don’t think so.
we did learn 'don't play 9 elimination finals in a row.....followed by a final'
