Match Committee - Round 18 2016 vs St. Kilda

Do you think they will both come straight in? I doubt McLean will, being so young.

Dahl feels like one who could come in and be ok. McLean probably needs a week at Footscray but who really knows.

Both will be back soon enough and are critical to our finals run.

You know we have practically had an injury a week this season.

Yep, ridiculous. Yet teams like Adelaide, Geelong and GWS have been relatively blessed.

Time for some luck.

Wouldn't at all be suprised come the finals that our luck with injuries turn around and the other teams all start falling over like nine pins.

* Jake has been playing multiple roles, so we'll look to get an even contribution of scoring.

* There's no doubt he makes something out of nothing, but it's a chance for others to step up.

* Libba should be fine this weekend. The risk last week was the plane.

* Both Luke Dahlhaus and Toby McLean are due back in round 19

* We're looking for a consistent four quarter effort this week. The boys feel like they dropped the ball a bit against the Suns.

* We'd love to be in the top four and get the second chance but we won't be looking beyond the Saints.

* We were disappointed to lose Tom Campbell for a while. We hope to get him back sometime before the end of the season.

* The Cairns community really embraced our boys and our Club.

Great work BAD.
Appreciate all the effort you put into Bevo's presser breakdown.

We lost last year after coming back from Cairns but it was against the Cats in Geelong.

We also had to spend all our petrol tickets overtaking GC in the last. Fair to say this year we pulled in the reigns about 5 minutes into the 3rd with a bit of self preservation in mind.

Don't think it will be a significant factor but I am nervous. Usually pretty optimistic but we've got a few things going against us that has me worried.

I think we were in a bit of a rut during that period .
I'd be worried if we were playing West Footscray to be honest .

[Bulldog4life]

One change for me Libba for Strings. Let our 2 big key forwards do the damage. C'mon Tommy & Jack.

[LostDoggy]

I think he meant DAHLHAUS and McLean....Dahl having been out for 5-6 by then.

Whoops, Dahl has been out for a while, may need a run but JJ is a good example of a key player coming Straight in after a longer lay off.

I think this is the week one of Redpath or The Boss gets off the chain. St Kilda are weak and thin for tall defenders down back, and have given up big bags to several key forwards; 7.1 to Hogan, 7.3 to Jenkins, 5.0 to Kennedy (not to mention 6 to Le Cras in the same game) and Cameron, 4.2 to MITCH BROWN, and 3 to pretty much everyone else (including 3.1 to noted worst player of all time Boyd in Round 2). Even if the bags aren't there, the shots at goal generally are; Tom Lynch with 1.4, Dixon with 3.3, Daniher with 2.3, and so on.

I just really REALLY hope it's Boyd that benefits.

I'm not fussed

Libba for Stringer.

[F'scary]

Libba in for Stringer, only change. Haven't seen the Saints line up yet.
