How did this become a trading thread?
Never mind: it is Thursday afternoon and the teams will come out in the next 90 minutes or so.
[1] I would give Weitering a rest. He was injured last week. I am not sure it is worth running him into the ground.
[2] Murphy is unlikely to play until next week. That means out mids have to play like they did last week. Not impossible.
[3] Our rucks need to be MUCH better than last time. Last time a hack and a 1st gamer shamed our rucks and gave St Kilda the midfield dominance they needed to win the game. We cannot afford that again.
[4] Walker is coming in for the last game. Who goes out for him?
[5] Casboult has been ordinary of late and not having much of an impact. If we bring in Jones or Jaksch to help out, as both have been reasonable lately, who goes out?
[6] Small forward role: do we play Jack there? he is about the only guy we have who actually reads the pack and can kick a crumbing goal, even though he is primarily a marking forward. Do we bring Lamb back in? Personally I wouldn't do it. Not until he plays a 4 quarter game or 2 at VFL level.
