    Hardly worth doing that in my opinion. If there is one or two we've wanted to have another look at then now is the time but we need to finish the season strongly for a few reasons.

    There are not many that can come in and plug holes.

    I think Hunter and McClean will come in, and maybe even JJ. Not sure Gardner's issue will be resolved, but I would drop Keath for Gardner.

    Out: McNeil, Garcia

    Not much else will change.

    Funnily enough I heard that and thought, yeah Schache isn’t playing against GWS.
    More of an In Bruges guy?

    Let's face it Coburg are rubbish, so not much competition.

    For me personally, I only really care about a win against that Orange Team next week. I doubt I'll even watch the final round. By the looks of some of our players last night, they've checked out as well

    He could be a loose man on the forward line and he would still struggle. He looks so far of it. People looking for positives from his goal. He should have been playing 2's until he is ready and confident.

    We need someone like a David Noble who is the best in the business and accountable for the Football Dept.

    Ditto. Mentioned something about Coburg being not much chop.

    Schache has had a fork stuck in him, he won't play for us again.
    The curse is dead.

    Strange when his last omission was due to covid and he didn't seem to have a typical Schache bad game.

    What are the odds given our form against Freo, but....IF we beat GWS (at Marvel) AND Hawthorn (in our Tasmania graveyard), IF St Kilda lose at least 1 to Brisbane and Sydney (both at Marvel) (our % is currently 6.8 better than StKilda) and IF Carlton lose to both Melbourne and Collingwood (both at the G)(their % is currently 1.7 above ours), then we MIGHT make the 8. But would we just be making up the numbers ?

    Well, we don’t deserve to make the 8, and we would certainly be making up the numbers.
    I did a quick ladder predictor, and if we did make it we would possibly play either Melb, or Bris (Gabba) in the elimination.
    I will never see #16 the same!!

    Why wouldn't we deserve it? You win the required games and you are in?

    I understand what you’re saying, but imo we don’t deserve it. We have struggled against the rest of the 8 other than the odd game. So, we might deserve our spot based on the games won, but we would be making up the numbers. Our system is broken.
