Changes v Skunks

Been a bit of a *smile* since leaving the Tiges has McRae. Has shown no respect to Dimma or the club since being appointed senior coach of the filth.

Actually reckon the Pies will win this Friday but im ok with that. When and if we meet at the proper part of the season later this year then things will be a whole lot different and it will be a whole lot sweeter to wipe them smiles.

Genuinely feel they are well overs. Don’t get me wrong, it does appear they are playing better footy that us right now. But its hard to get a real gauge after 2 games. Our biggest losing margin over the past 19 games is 6 points, so I am really tempted to have a crack at the line.

a part of me thinks we might have the players and system to dismantle the scum, a part of me thinks we'll get done by 10 goals.

Cumberland going backwards as he learns a new role isn’t a big surprise.
Pretty normal because it impacts normal game style
give him time! it took a few games for Rioli (forward to back) and he's firing full barrells

I don’t think Daniel ever looked quite as lost down back as Cumbo does in the middle. Hope he can come good, but I fear we’re ruining a good player, by trying to force him into a role he just doesn’t get.

If Lynch is fit we need to drop Riewoldt. Cant have all 3 talls in our forward line given the way Lollingwood run it out.
i think we can. Last time, they flooded the backline and fully covered both Tom and Jack. This time, I hope Tom works up the ground (taking a tall defender with him) he has been winning these battles thus far, or if all three are forward line, they won't be able to cover all three talls. I can see this as our supporters shouting "Samsom, Samson" night.

What did young do wrong ,he sure as heck won’t be dropped , mansell won’t either for that matter
With the amount of outs we have in defence: Broad, Gibcus, Tarrant, no way known Young will be dropped. Mansell will probably be sub again. Coming on with fresh legs suits him.
 
Well short is out, Hopper doubtful and a wait and see with Dusty.

plus Broad

can see 3 forced changes to the side for Friday and maybe even Dusty if he pulls up sore.

Ross and Banks in plus one more?
 
Broad, Shorty, Hopper all likely outs and Dusty 50/50.

Cumberland, Mansell and Sonsie in. Clarke as sub.
