Hoping for the following changes this week
Out: Saad, Plow, Hewitt/Ed, Pitto or SOS
In: Kemp, Cincotta, Dow, Gov
Sub: Ed
Honey loses his sub role
Think Hewy needs a rest to get over the hand, if he's ok to go I'd drop Ed. Dow needs another chance and we need the pace.
I think we have to reassess whether we can play 2 rucks and SOS, especially as TDK needs to develop his forward work.

The other week I went with friends to the VFL game between Sandringham and Gold Coast at the revamped Saints ground at Moorabbin.
With approximately 200 people in attendance and the ability to wander onto the field at quarter and three quarter time to listen to the coaches, I was reminded of local district matches I attended years ago.
There was a complete lack of atmosphere and this was reflected in the lack of pressure applied by the players during the game.
My lasting impression of the game is that it showed quite starkly the gulf in ability of players in the VFL compared with AFL.
As pathetic as some on our list are, I would be reluctant to bring in more than two from our VFL ranks this week.

Macca, I watched the replay of the Carlton v Richmond match and it was also underwhelming. Richmond only had 4 AFL-listed players (and no senior players amongst them) while we had 12. Despite this advantage and Mirkov dwarfing their ruckmen, we could hardly score. Not greatly encouraging.
