Myself I'm a tad nervous that under a new coach, and with our own reshuffled coaching line up, the Filth are a bit of a known unknown. I'm not sure we are even close to nailing down our own game plan let alone having a solid grasp on an opponent's.

Very hopeful but not at all confident.
Reality always wins in the end.

By all rights, we should win. But it's us.

Still don't have a 2nd key forward and/or backup ruck....Silvagni it is.
At least our backline is sorted though.

Cripps is struggling fitness wise and you can't have Pendlebury racking up 25 plus possies with his skills. More pressure on their mids and limiting supply is the key imo.

I reckon we need to use Cripps up forward more this week.
We are short a 2nd key forward and our closest one (Silvagni) is backup ruck.
When SOJ goes into the ruck, have Cripps in the middle (TDK forward)
When TDK is in the ruck, have Cripps forward a lot and let Kennedy, Dow, Walsh, Curnow rotate through the middle.

need early goals so I dont want the coach with the 5 forwards only theory again and I want emphasis on attack early.

IMHO, terrific logic/suggestions... Crippa up forward also worries their defense. Like it, Mr K. A limousine will arrive at your door around 2ish, to take you to our coach's box Sunday arvo.
