As predicted,

McGovern out
Fantasia In

Moir Sub

HTF does that fraud get a game ahead of Moir. 1 he is useless and 2 good chance he will be subbed before half time with a calf.
Joke.

We are no chance.
OF will get 3 kicks, zero goals.

The Fantasia love affair has gone too far! Much better options could have played

[LP]

Stay relaxed and leave yourself open to being surprised, as much as it might be doom it's also an opportunity.

If we do happen to limp into the finals, I hope we continue to play the kids instead of breaking a bunch of underdone superstars, and it might tell us a bit about what we have to work with for next season!

A good mindset to take

However, unless Fantasia is the worlds greatest decoy, I simply don’t get his selection

[DJC]

you might want to check membreys record against us.  He'll likely kick minimum 2 maximum 5 goals against us. 

He's one of those players who just finds a way to score against us.

Yes, he does have a good record against us but what happened in the past has little bearing on what will happen today.  The further back you go, the less relevant it is and he kicked 1.2 last time.

The thing about AFL is that your usual team and regular tactics are analysed to minute levels, when you are forced to do something different it often results in the unexpected.

It's hard for opposition to plan for stuff they know nothing about, it's the same thing that often sees first year players get a free ride, and then the second year blues. It's not about them being good or bad, it's about what the opposition know.

Until opposition see a few games of us in the current configuration it's hard for them to prepare to face us, if we are smart and adaptive we can be difficult to predict and overcome.

Today's game is as much if not more of a test of our MC as it is the playing list!

[ElwoodBlues1]

Orazio might surprise, the WC game was great experience for the likes of Moir, Lord, and Kemp down forward but the odds of them repeating their efforts are probably less in a expected dour struggle with Stkilda and Fantasia would have been picked for his experience and ability to create some goals for others. Its a risk for sure he wont see out the game but the coach was the one who wanted him on the list and I guess is backing his man in to get it done.

[Thryleon]

Fantasia might just be the addition down forward we need.

Not saying he does a lot but his presence in the team coincided with some of our better footy this season and one thing he does bring is smarts.
