You’d think so, though it can make sense to make the sub versatile, like JJ or Scott.
I know VDM played HBF for Footscray in his first year, but I associate him purely as a forward these days.
All the same, would be surprised if he’s not in the 23

JJ knocked VDM out with his superb performance against Port. We’re gonna need him to have that same effort on Saturday.

Ergh, I would've played Laith, but JJ has some decent GF pedigree!

I like Laith and feel sad for him and Gardner. Gut wrenching decisions. One consideration for me is he thus far has been a poor kick for goal. With VDM hamstring history do you think he would be a good sub or do you think MC will go with Scott who is a plug holes, versatile type?

Although if Keath goes down early we’d be somewhat exposed down back, and have to push Shache back which may open up May / Lever.

Re: Always Right Match Committee Thread - 2021 AFL Grand Final vs Melbourne
INS - Keith , Weightman
Outs - Gardner , Scott
Sub - JJ (most versatile option)
I agree he was awesome last week.
If any doubt on VDM, I wouldnt play or sub him. Maybe JJ in & ED can sub *!♂️

Re: Always Right Match Committee Thread - 2021 AFL Grand Final vs Melbourne
Feel for Gards and Vanders. They are really stiff. Vanders recent hammy injury was significant as was Cody's hot form. Gards is really stiff. Has done all that has been asked of him. I think it boils down to flexibility and Cordy has that. He also played well against Port so it's not like he didn't put his hand up.
This is a team that will win another Flag, IMO.

Re: Always Right Match Committee Thread - 2021 AFL Grand Final vs Melbourne
Thinking about Ed the sub. Can cover forward, back & mid. If not, likely Scott?

Re: Always Right Match Committee Thread - 2021 AFL Grand Final vs Melbourne
It takes a village to win a premiership, but only 23 spots. Gardner, VDM, Scott, Bruce, Young, Wallis, Garcia, Marra and everyone else got the 23 to take this opportunity.
We have a very good 22 lock and loaded. Add in a good sub to add in. We are in this up to our eyeballs.

Agree, Ed is sub he can play all 3 positions .
Really feel for those who missed out
Especially Gardner who has improved tremendously . Just remember that the club is here Because of your outstanding efforts
For so many to miss out means we have good problem of great depth within the club
