Is this going to be a problem in Launceston?
The aging Roughead has the others comfortably covered in terms of general football, Kreuzer probably gets McEvoy in terms of aerobic capacity but you wouldn't want your life dependent on the difference. McEvoy is more physical than Kreuzer. Levi as good as he was leading up as a KPF is miles off the pace in the center and around the ground at stoppages.
Surely we won't try to break McKay in the ruck, especially after last weekend! So I suspect we retain Levi off the back of 3 goals as a dedicated 2nd ruck/forward, even if Charlie returns!
Keep in mind the Launceston playing surface is bigger than the MCG, and much much bigger than Docklands!
Roughy looked a shadow of his former self....Liam covers him easily.
I imagine they'll play Cegler too....
But their problems are greater than ours - their back line is under sized and lacking in quality.....who takes big H, who takes the Guv?
Their midfield - without Mitchell, Shiels and Burgoyne - is shallow, to be polite....
Their forward line remains their sole (potential) strength - Breust, Gunston, Wingard, Poppy - but our back line is the equal of any....
Finals, then 4 in a row!
