This game is a Sunday afternoon game on the Gold Coast, starting at 1610. We will NOT be on free to air TV. Again.

Last time we were 4-0 1995.

Some think round 4 to be a dangerous assignment.  I certainly don't. 8) 

[pinot]

Out Boyd
In Saad

Stocker not done enough

Paddy Dow and Motlop very good but we are in good form centre forward of the ball so no spot for them at the moment I don't think

[Lods]

I think we need to find a spot for Dow.
Reward for effort.

Reward for effort.

Indeed. He simply can't do much more than he is.

[crashlander]

God Coast had a very poor game against GWS. Hopefully, we can learn something from that, as we have better forward options that GWS does.

For me, we are not getting enough out of Fisher.  This might be a great time to give Motlop a run.

Saad a definite - missed his run immensely today.

[pinot]

Fisher can be replaced but need to guarantee his replacement can bring 15-17 touches + 5 tackles + 5 score involvements per game with 80%+ Disposal efficiency

If Motlop can do better then Fisher needs to be replaced - but what a huge risk to take

Downside with Fisher's game he isnt gaining any meterage with his posessions and needs to hurt the opposition more

[WASurfer]

Not sure Motlop for Fisher is a good idea? We have two pure specialist forwards in Durdin and Owies and that's exactly what Motlop is. Fisher, while form hasn't been great, can play up the ground a bit more. Durdin and Owies have played their roles pretty well so I'd stick with them.

Saad obviously in for Boyd.

Not sure McDonald comes back in either....Young probably holds his spot...unless they want 3 talls down back?

Stocker probably needs another week or two.

Maybe Martin for Fisher is the only other change....assuming Pittonet is right to go.
