We haven't been playing together well enough for long enough to be resting players and flirting with form!

I think we could try a few things and give an important player a spell.

Yes, we have to put the best possible team on the park each week. Maintaining our momentum and intensity is essential and resting players won’t do that … as Ken Hinkley now knows.

Not that a full strength Port Adelaide could have coped with our onslaught.

Go as hard as possible.
Don't muck around with winning form and take a game easy, because that then becomes your norm and it's hard to turn it around.
Yep, every week is an elimination final, 6 in a row.

If they're injured, don't play them. If they're fit...in the 23. We are NOT a club to be taking anyone lightly at this stage of the season.

McGovern and Ginbey confirmed outs for WCE leaving them really only Barass to play on Charlie. Barass is very strong in the air but I think Charlie might be a bit too mobile for him.

If Pitto gets up, ruck him and JSOS and leave TDK permanently forward. If not, as someone else suggested, I'd be tempted to play either of Marchbank or Young down back and move McGovern forward.

Assuming Cerra is out, I think Dow has earned a crack at a full game.

Cowan in for Boyd would be logical and would leave us to still play Doc more midfield.

This happened at the end of last season when Kennedy, Hewett and finally Walsh were all missing. It's only West Coast, but no Cripps, Cerra or Kennedy is a worry in the middle.
