Long and Ramsden are in, hope Hustwaite gets a run as sub
Grundy dropped.
They only have J Smith as a 2nd tall fwd/ ruck relief.
Ramma should do well at 203cm.

Hasn't recovered from the flu allegedly.
Gawn does love playing us. Great test for Reeves and Ramma.

Geez i hope Ned Long gets a good go at playing on ball. I hope he doesn't get stuck playing HFF all day. His form in the VFL has been playing in the midfield, would to see how that translates at the top level.

Hustwaite didn't train today at Hawthorn and is named to play for Box Hill tonight.

Really? Despite Dermott admitting he'd stepped on his face in several interviews and Tallis attesting to the same.
I’m at the stage now where I expect us to win every game lol.
Probably getting ahead of myself.
These guys tore us a new one last time, so really fascinated to see how our midfield goes this time against a very good, physical one.
Finn to petracca is a must.
Go hawks.

That would have to be one of the most inexperienced sides we will have ever fielded hope we put up a strong showing, GO HAWKS
Finn to Langdon for the same reasons as we tagged him last year. This is a great challenge for our midfield, as we're hoping that Day/Newcombe/Nash/Worpel combination will eventually become as formidable as the Petracca/Oliver/Viney/Brayshaw one. Perfect opportunity to take on the best and see how we measure up.

This will be interesting how they structure the 3 talls - Kozi, DGB and Rama - probably a suck it and see what happens. Nothing to lose really. Another big test for the mids but really looking forward to see how they go against arguably the best midfield in the competition. Gawn usually smashes us around the ground and if we can't avoid kicking down the line at least provide a contest and make him earn it - some unsociable rib massages wouldn't go astray.
Finn to Trac a no brainer.
Hustwaite now playing BH tonight.

I consider myself an optimist but Kosi, DGB & Ramsden vs May/Lever doesn’t sound like fun.

All 3 have a lot to play for and still have much to prove. None have established themselves and every game is an opportunity and what an opportunity this is. Hopefully they respond to the challenge.
yep good call out i thought Kosi has really flourished not playing as the stationary forward. The team balance has really challenged the opposition with 1 ruck and a pinch hit Fwd out of the 3 mobile forwards selected between Lewis,Ryan,Dgb,,Ryan. It will be interesting to see how it looks with Ramma Kosi Dgb the boys will be up against May,Lever,Rivers.
We match up really well against their midfield size and strength wise, takes away one of their groups key attributes.
Need to kill their outside run (Finn on Langdon), beat them in the engine room, and get goals from three very raw forwards.
On exposed form we can do this the first two.
But Kosi needs to relish the responsibility and lift, DGB and Ramadan need to find a way to score.
Never worried about our back 6 as long as Sicily is there.
Reeves needs to keep going the way he has been, and we need to avoid kicking it to Gawn.
Brockman staying out is puzzling, no matter what's going on behind the scenes we want to win, and his value would surely rise if he plays well. Unless of course, the deal is already done.

May/Lever are great interceptors.. How well our forward line performs will be squarely on the midfields delivery imo
He hasn’t really gone to the powerful explosive types. Be good if he was given that task to see how he goes but I think he’s more likely to take Viney or Oliver
Daicos is explosive.

Probably needs to mecca couple of fast leads
We are 6-6 over the last 12 rounds. Wins over Coll Bris stk dogs . Small losses to rich and gws. Not bad at all over a decent stretch
