I noticed that also, arty. Seemed the same for Chol who was grinning broadly as he embraced the players coming off the ground.
The RFC list is a tight unit and all fully committed to the team's direction and success.
Markov and Aarts also. We have 5 players who can stake a legitimate claim to be in our GF side - Caddy, Chol, Markov, Aarts and Ross.

Remember the saying "A team is only as good as it"s bottom 4 players?"
These are the next 5 after that ....... just wow!

Having said that, we can agree to disagree on Chol.

Cads would know he's had an injury riddled year and hasn't quite made it to best 22 this year. He is an ultimate competitor. I will back him in to have a huge pre season and give himself every chance of returning to the best 22 next year.

His reaction after the PF showed what a team man he is.

I'd prefer Caddy in for Pickett. Pickett really struggles in the first half. Plays much better after half time when there's less pace in the game, whereas Caddy more reliable throughout the entire game. Even in last year's GF they kept Pickett on the bench for some time and the game was almost done when he started to shine, now we've seen more of him it's easier to know why. He'd have made a perfect sub back in the day, but I worry his first half brain fades and slowness to get into the game may cost us. Don't think they'll make the change but think they shold.

I wouldn't have Chol on that list. Has underperformed 99% of the time he has played. We would be down a player in the granny if selected. The other 4 can stake a claim.

He looked rapt for the team when the siren went but he must be hurting. How did he go from AA squad in 2018 to out of the team?

Seems to have lost his leap, body might be failing him. Can't afford to have an avoidable situation like Port had with Burton, one down for three quarters.

Difficult to bring in someone who has not played high intensity competitive footy in a long time.

No one thinks Dimma might ‘pull another rabbit in the hat ‘?

Think both sides may go in unchanged.?


From when we last played.

Cats ins- Stanley, Ablett, Selwood, Simpson & Rohan

Tiger ins- Astbury , Broad, Edwards & Prestia. Plus we lost Soldo in that game early on. Lynch too .


Our game has changed the last 3 games. ( clearance & contested part of it).

( Kaos game vs Kontrol Game. )

So if both clubs remain unchanged which is the most likely outcome, it'll be:
Selwood, Stanley, Ablett, Rohan, Simpson (In)
Fogarty, Ratugolea, Close, Jarvis, Atkins (out)

Prestia, Astbury, Edwards, Broad (in)
Ross, Soldo, Aarts, Markov (Out)

Reckon Ratugolea has to be a fair chance of playing. He was probably their only consistent marking player last time we played.

What happens if it rains?
Be like having a man down all game.

Bit unfair if Geelong have 5 ins and only 4 out...
