Changes for Qualifying Final

Gee that escalated quickly. Was just reading on afl.com that he’d trained ok today and was going to another session on Wednesday.

I can understand where the doubts are coming from re: Chol but we have been at our most dominant this year having that extra tall who can pinch hit in the ruck and up forward.

Chol is a totally different proposition when both Lynch and Riewoldt are playing. He is hard to match up on.

The only player I see replacing Chol is Caddy. Problem is Caddy is coming into this game under an injury cloud.

Yep this. As always on the money Aces.

I think it is more just that he isn’t a definite in at this point rather than he is a definite out isn’t it.

They will make a final decision on Wednesday

EDIT - just saw the statement on the club website - are they playing games with the lions re sowing some doubt with Andrews as his injury was worse?

There are reports Lynch won't play.
What happened to him sprinting like a horse at Training?
 
Why now? If prepared to give him up to thursday to pass the test?
Who's running this show?

Well obviously not ideal with Tom out. But we are loading up on the midfield by the looks with Titch back & most likely Bolton & Dion this week. Going by a lot of the games up there fair chance it will be a slippery ball , get repeat entries & as long as Chol or Caddy provide a contest to cover Lynch , let the smalls go to work.

If his not fit right call.As much as I wasn't happy with Chol 's intensity he has to play.We need that tall that's been our setup all year even if he plays still one tall short from normal.I would have Chol relief Nank ruck and push Nank forward who is more then capable up there and vice versa.Chol looked lost sitting permanent forward give him spirts.

Then Caddy up forward he works well with Jack and takes a good defender is he over his injuries tho.Martin can play forward at times as midfield is loaded now.I wouldn't drop Ross tho he that extra hard body we need in and under.

Chol must now play, he and nank can rotate through the fwd line. I had him out if Lynch was playing but he must now step up to the plate. That performance V Crows was woeful. He now has another chance, hope he takes it. If he can at least launch at the contest he'll either mark it or bring the ball to ground.
Must also chase and harass.

Yep 100% correct smalls will be super important.That's how we got the lions last time on the spread and our run and carry.

If so, i love it ! That will stuff 'em.
