    McComb -I don't get it. Would rather play one short. His experiment with McComb has failed. Move on.

    McNeill was up and about last week with his defensive efforts and keeping the ball in the forward line.

    Emergency list is also bizarre - Martin and Keath. With Cleary and McNeil

    Surely McNeil is the sub?
    More of an In Bruges guy?

    More annoyed at McNeil being omitted than Keath. We just look better balanced in the front half with him in there pressuring the opposition rebounders.

    Keath has been playing like a busted and is a horrible match-up, on current form, for either of Hawkins and Cameron. If Cordy has been in good form at Footscray, he deserves a shot.

    Keith appears to be not right. I bet it’s more he can’t play than he is out of form

    Also think that the Cordy in is not bad. Sends a message to others but also he will come out breathing fire and wanting to show that he still has it. Anyway with our midfield running into form now the back six will have a easy night

    Go Dogs!

    So Cordy on Cameron?

    We need a supreme midfield domination!

    Probably. At least he can keep up with him. No disrespect to Zaine but this probably shows where our key defensive stocks are at right now. We really need to dominate the midfield.

    Interesting they dropped McNeil for the shorter McComb.

    Wonder if there's a specific role in mind.

    Cordy hasn’t played a game for the senior team as a defender all season, but is given a run against the best key forward combo in the competition.

    Not asking much of him are we?

    I really hope our mids are up for the battle. If we aren’t switched on from the get go then we will really struggle. But this is a real backs against the wall scenario and generally the type of environment we thrive in, thus do expect us to give a really good showing.

    Pretty sure he was in defence earlier this year before being switched forward.

    Ditto. Can only think that it must have been a plan for McNeil and McComb to alternate roles week to week (pressure forward / sub).

    I reckon the Keath omission is more to do with Cordy's form than his own. Bevo was probably waiting for either O'Brien or Cordy to put their hand up, and Zaine was close to our best in the VFL on the weekend. Hopefully Keath can find some form at the lower level to return with some confidence going into finals.

    Cordy has been playing really well in the VFL and Keath has been pretty awful so happy with that change.

    Don't like McComb for McNeil, McNeil was one of a handful of players actually coping with the pressure early on last week and his forward pressure was great. McComb did play well when he came on but McNeil shouldn't be out.

    Maclean has been good in vfl for 3 matches now. I’d prefer Tobes over McComb however it is what it is. Hope Robbie does really well and proves us wrong.

    I feel sad for Schache. Hope he gets another chance before end of season.

    Nah he was even training as a forward pre season. Was always looking set for the role of our second ruck for the first part of the year
