If Higgins and Polec get 20 or less we win by eight goals.

Walsh and Murphy have played on the wings for most games, and it often seems like he is no mans land with his positioning in general play. I wonder how much of that is coaching and not understanding what his role is?
He probably played his most important game when we played the Dogs and he had a run with role [with Murphy from memory] on Hunter. He did a good disciplined job and Hunter had very limited influence. I can't for the life work out why we didn't get him to follow that good performance up last week with a similar role on O'Meara [or Wingard / Shiels].
I would give him a job this week on either Higgins or Polec. He's not a big possession winner so if he can hold those guys to less than 20 and get 10 himself that is a big win for us imo.
Was he even that good on hunter?
We really got a hold of them and they weren't able to stop our talls.
Hunter got it 18 instead of his average 28 odd. O brien touched it 7 times.
If we had another player getting 25+ and hunter got his 28 odd, we'd have actually been further ahead on the stats sheet.

Hard to disagree.
Given Garlett seems to be doing little in the 2s, hard - very hard - to justify his inclusion at LOB's expense....
Finals, then 4 in a row!

For mine:
Out: Kreuzer, McGovern, Simpson, Newman
In: Phillips, C Curnow, Garlett, Schumacher
That is based mostly on Williamson and Stocker both not being match fit and ready for AFL

Charlie (auto in), Phillips (we need a genuine ruck even if a battling one), Setterfield (did enough to warrant coming straight back in given no-one knocking down the door in the 2s) and (subject to being sufficiently match fit) Williamson (quality player) for mine. If Willo not considered ready then try Stocker if he is fit enough - if not then Schumacher. No to Garlett - has not done much in the 2s after being putrid in the 1s albeit played out of position, no to Lobbe unless Phillips doesn't come up for some reason.
