    Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 1

    Just play Jamarra, get a big game into him and something to build on for next year. We’re not doing any damage any way, focus on the future.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

    Bevo basically said he won’t last night. But I agree 100%, get games into Garcia, Marra, Cody and Schache as a defender under pressure with Keath. The game should have a silver lining.

    Actually we only needed an additional goal.

    Essendon match was the one when we had 20 marks inside 50 and missed 5 to 6 set shots.

    Anyone else want to bring in every player that won't be on the list next year and tell them to take out one Ess player each?

    It was comical how many easy goals we missed in that game.

    But if we just had have played Jordan Sweet it would have been all good.

    I think we just go for broke and bring in Martin and have Lewis as the sub. If Martin breaks down then so be it, and I think Lewis is a bit more versatile than Schache.

    To me Richards offers more than VDM, so I make that change.

    In - Martin, Richards
    Out - Young, VDM

    I must agree with you. We lost 50% of the last 10 games. All we needed was 1 extra goal in that time. A repeat of any one of his first four games would have done it. Let’s say the St Kilda one.

    Given Richards had played all of his best footy behind the footy are you selecting him to play in a forward role? Or will he go back and push Daniel into a role upfield?

    Once I watched Mary Poppins at school in grade prep, and right in the seconds before Mary Poppins rocks up and the other nannies got blown away by the wind I actually loudly farted. It was perfectly timed for when the nannies started to fly off and was completely hilarious to all and sundry in my prep class.

    Anyway, even then I knew the difference between coincidence and causation.

    It's a good question, and I think that'd be what I'd like to see happening. We are clearly struggling for connection forward of centre and I think Daniel can help here.
