Still leaves 23 with my medi sub being VDM with only other option but less preferred being JJ who stays in the starting 22.
JJ came on after half time against the Lions and had a big impact. Maybe we try and just hound and harass the Demons with VDM then look to activate JJ after half time and use his running power. I think the sub gets activated 100% this game, no matter what.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Agreed, would be nice for us to activate the sub tactically rather than injury for a change.

I really like LVDM. Watching the first qtr back last week he was a major contributor.
I want him in the team.
JJ has been good too hate to be making that choice. I think Laith's pressure work gives him the nod for mine.

I'm hoping concussion doesn't play a big part like with Vlaustin last season.
Considering in game there's zero long term match accountability for a perpetrator outside of a free kick in that moment, it's a real threat over your stars.
Imagine if Macrae cops a high hit early for eg.
I think there has to be some sort of card system implemented in the future to prevent something untoward in a GF.

I loved his hit on Ladhams that led to Treloar's goal.

Wasn’t sure where to put this. It’s every clearance against Melbourne this year.

Midfield depth is probably our biggest advantage which is a bit of a grind but we've been really good with scores from centre clearances since 6-6-6, especailly with Stef in the side. We can score really quickly like the 7 in the first quarter against Port, or our really dominant games against St Kilda & Gold Coast. You can never get on too much of a run against us or keep us out of the game given the strength of our mids unless our rucks are getting mauled

If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

Tom Morris reporting Gardner will be dropped for Keath.
More of an In Bruges guy?

Geez. I don't like it.
Gardner is better than Cordy in every way IMO.

Knew this thread existed but you can't expect me to look for it.
Astonishing call. Gardner is a perfect matchup for Brown and even aside from that what exactly does Cordy do better?

Yikes, thought Ryan was very solid against Port. Outmarked Dixon at one point, did a fair bit right. Gee whiz

I'm pretty flat about this. Gardner worked really hard to make his way into the team and earned his spot. I really think this is a mistake whatever way you look at it.
Who will Cordy even play on? He's too slow for Fritsch, too small for Brown, and not strong enough for McDonald.
