Liam Jones needs to be within 6 feet of Daniher all day. And every time the ball comes in Liam needs to smash in.... Joe will get his usual heap of frees, (which only the officials see) might as well really make him earn every touch.
If Kreuzer doesn't front up fit their midfield will kill us.

Think the emphasis might be on not getting beat too bad but keeping that No 2 pick...

One more win up north and it might be pick no. 1.

The % difference is too great between us and the Lions to make up in the last few rounds - pick 2 is the best we can hope for, although I would prefer having pick 18 as my first, anyhoo...........

If Kreuzer's out Jones will ruck with Levi and Jaksch will play i'd say.

If Kreuzer doesn't come up you'd expect KJ to come in as the tall forward with Meat doing the ruck work.
Cuningham was useless against Geelong so that's no loss. White strugged and Williamson was okay. Would have liked to see H go again.
The 4 ins are, well, about the only 4 you could bring in! Hopefully Boekhorst can impress his future suitors. Might be Den Dens final game, chance for Pickett to show his wares and there are those of us who see potential in Billie so hopefully he can show us something. Probably our best chance for a win before the season concludes.

That would be something to see, it'd be the Pagan era revisited.

Yes, we really need to contain the damage now for the rest of the year which may damage morale, and avoid any bad beatings, especially v. the Bummers!

If the team I play for in a professional sporting competition was sitting 2nd last out of 18 teams, I reckon my morale may already be up the poop chute.
Loving those sigs of yours cookie. The Amazon one, plus this new one. Keep em coming............

I wouldn't be writing us off against this mob.
BB might release the shackles a little so we can run, risk and carry rather than the ultra safe, kick-n-posses, model we're showing at present; the minimize damage style.
