Just watched Clarkson previewing our game on YouTube.
Nutshell: to win we'd have to sustain a high level of pressure. That is what would prevent Brisvegas playing their one wood... their high level of uncontested possession... keeping the aggott out of their opponents hands. 100% concur with this. We always look our most dangerous with relentless pressure... hunting.
Like most pundits Clarkson is most concerned with the number of changes we might very well make. He agrees that Doc's inclusion will have a positive effect on team spirit... but... too many changes could very well be too disruptive to continuity. And we may well have the ability to make as many as 8 changes - just crazy (my word).
So... If we settled on no more than 4 changes, who comes in and who goes out?

Of course after the fact (ie hindsight) it wont stop us from professing to have known better.
I have no faith in our MC. That went long ago. It was team selection that contributed to starting our slump picking half fit, out of form players.

Is it crazy making 8 changes to a side that is out of form?
Is it crazy making less than 8 changes if it mwans that you are leaving out more talented people as a result?
The 'making changes' theory is all well and good, but there are an exception. Perhaps in this instance we can't win unless we make 8 changes. Who knows.

Just one thing on Doc and people worried about his fitness.
I'll play devils advocate for a second.
Perhaps he is fitter than anyone else in the side at the moment because....
1. He has done nothing but train and train and train to get ready for this moment.
2. He isn't carrying any niggles like everyone else in the team.
3. He is mentally fitter than anyone else on our list with what he's had to endure in and outside of footy.
If we win this week, i'd argue that next week is the bigger issue with him. Getting up in back to back games when you are probably carrying a niggle into week 2 can see a big drop off in form/output.
For this week, i'd back him in.

That's easy! Take a mark outside 50 in the dying minutes of the game, play on and bomb the ball to the square where Acres can mark and kick the winning goal

Despite our slump, our pressure rating is very high (cant remember the numbers). Apply the pressure and this mob will wilt, nothing surer.
