Agree with this except Stephenson is very slippery. Don't think Vlastuin is the right match up. I would go Broad on Stephenson and maybe Vlastuin on WHE although would prefer Short so that Vlastuin can play loose, only problem is Short may be too Short.

Rance on Mihocek is a perfect match up to allow him to zone off and intercept and/or support Astbury with Cox

I would go

Broad - Stephenson
Astbury - Cox
Rance - De Goey
Grimes - WHE
Vlastuin - Mihocek
Houli - Thomas

The worry for me is Thomas.

Broad takes Thomas and Short runs with Stephenson

Nope, Broad will be on Stephenson for sure.

I think it'll be
Astbury - Cox, he'll have him so far in his pocket he'll look like a 2 headed snake
Grimes - De Goey
Rance - Mihocek / covering everywhere
Broad - Stephenson
Vlastuin - WHE
Short - Thomas

He just played the game of his life VS Hawthorn 2 weeks ago. He's a certain starter for the Prelim.

Yeah i know, if Broad went out, McIntosh is one we could send back as he's played there in the past. No way Macca is out of the side

Apologies, TM. I read your post as dropping McIntosh out of the side for Broad. (Which doesn't even make sense as they both played VS Hawthorn. I'm losing it.)

I agree, Kamdyn could quiet easily play back if needed.

They'll swap around like they always do.

these match-ups are posted every week. and every week we line up the same way.
Rance deep against whoever plays deepest forward. Astbury on the tallest player/most dangerous marking threat Rance isnt on. Broad on the other tall, or lead up forward. Grimes on the most dangerous forward and Vlastuin, Short and Houli swapping around on others.
 
If he gets through training tomorrow, he must come back in.
Roili, castagna and him are the reason why we are unbeatable.

On form, the only one you could drop for Butler, would be Broad and can't see that happening because it's not like for like. Unless Broad is injured ( which could actually be true ) or there is simply no match up for him ( I'd play him on Stephenson ) he will play. Can't drop Higgins or Conca for obvious reasons. They're doing their job well

They were our biggest weapon last year yet we have only had the three of them play together three times this year.
