    Re: Match Committee - Semi Final vs Geelong/Hawthorn at the MCG

    And based on body language at training, Webb looked most like he's got the nod. Will be interesting who the third emergency would be after McLean and R.Smith. Campbell or Fletcher?

Think it'd be a bold decision to pick him over McLean, but having said that, I am definitely a fan of Lukas.

    If he plays, his left foot could be handy.
    We don't really have many options for a like the like replacement. Webb has been playing closest to Jong's role.
    Stevens should really be in that team but he just hasn't been playing well enough at the right time, and his turnovers can hurt.

    Not sure Webb will have the aggression and physicality required for a finals game, he has had moments when he has been good but just hasn't had a complete game this year.

    Let's hope he does well.

    Was just watching a little of Round 3 against the Hawks. While Adams made a few mistakes early gee he is a good mark and just so athletic. I forgotten how big of a loss he has been, he is a serious footballer indeed.

    At training today Stevens was constantly missing targets or over kicking / under kicking the ball. He kicked one to Adcock and it went way over the top and Adcock went to retrieve it shaking his head. This has happened on all of the about 8 times I've been to training this year.
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    Was not expecting magic in thought the tougher Webb would have got the nod

    Hawks added some more run in Hartung. Already they're reactive to what we produced last week and will hopefully emulate tomorrow.
