Neale isn't short!
More exposed to AFL recently than Tabs, so probably in consideration.
Actually don’t mind Voss developing, as long as the club re signs him for a few years.
Happy enough. I like the no direct replacement for Emmett / extra mid approach.
Midfield looks strong. Backs and offence looks skinny.
Definitely a ways away from our b22. Good chance for the team to show some, um, gumption or something

Voss really needs to step up and he'll have the opportunity without Treacy there.
I noticed in Voss's last game his back leg really collapses when he's shooting at goal. I don't know if he always does this or if he's got into a bad habit. But his shots for goal were awful.

Bit confused about why people are saying Cats aren’t playing any Talls, Shannon Neale is named in the forward line, he’s 203cm ruck/forward.
Agreed, but given the necessary return of Fyfe and Johnno, the only realistic option would have been as sub, which is more of the same.
Hardly fair for him to have to step up.
He ll kick 1 or 2. It’s up to the forward line to contribute evenly.
It’s Jackson that has to step up. Can’t go hiding behind Treacy and Amiss last week.
Perfect Purple

He has shown straight kicking in the WAFL.
He just needs to take that next step and do it at AFL level.

Taberner has the better form in the WAFL right now but unless we're giving him a token send off game we should absolutely be pumping games into Voss where we can.
Great to see the beast Matt Johnson get another run.

Here’s my based on nothing but feels prediction:
Johnno has a blinder
Voss kicks a small bag, maybe a clutch purse or small tote.

Worner as sub is meh
Atleast we won't put him in the guts like we've been doing with Aish
Chappy needs to lift, can easily see him being subbed for Worner if he continues his form

No Treacy hurts.
I thought we were 60/40 to win this but I think it's now closer to 50/50.

Don’t mind that we can bring in Voss for Treacy, but darks sake have we learnt nothing about team selection and balance. Why bring in Worner when we have a surplus of running backs and no small forward finishers. Give Simpson a go rather than Worner FFS.

Worner would make more sense as a starter than a sub tbh: he's comfortably got Wagner covered defensively, though Wagner comfortably has him covered going forward. Worner starting with Wagner coming on against tired legs would be effective.
We probably won't go in that direction though, in which case it's a bit weird. Most charitable framing I could think of is "players can prove more about themselves with full game WAFL than being sub, and some of the higher-impact options can prove more about themselves than Worner, who we basically already know what he is."

Most decent small forwards seem to.
Not sure we’ve really noticed Wagner’s lack of defensive ability tbh.
I’m convinced Worner is just warming the seat so we can ease Walters back in as the sub next week or the week after. Aish has probably played one game of time over three weeks and hasn’t looked great doing it - I think he’ll be back again this year.
Would’ve been nice to give NOD a taste so that if he’s needed during finals (which basically starts now for us) it’s not his first AFL game in like 18 months. Reckon he’s first in if anything happens to JOM (probably) or Sharp (almost definitely) tbh.
