Pittonet+TDK
Weitering, McGovern, marchbank (instead of kemp!)
McKay, Charlie
Cripps
Cerra
Hewett
Kennedy as the sub
Thats 11 players who wouldn't be catching 90% of players in the AFL who played in the prelim.
This year is Young for Marchbank (which is a better matchup - Marchy was undersized without a matchup)
TDK plays forward instead of Charlie. So we are 1 tall less, but better matchups height wise.
Also Kennedy as a sub/small last year, is more of a tall this year, allowing us to play a true small in his place.
I still think we are too slow and would ideally swap out Cerra who is slow, but moreso is unfit and will become slower for Cincotta.

Must be because they were tired because of the 0 extra talls we carried.
Let's face it we lost at the selection table dropping owies.
The reality is cripps didn't play well and that was that.
