    Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 10 v Adelaide

    With a hole in the lung I wouldn't expect Sam to be back before the bye at least.

    Re: Always Right Match Committee Round 10 v Adelaide

    This is such a huge match. The crows are great to watch and loaded with talent. We can 100% take them down but it won't be easy. Given match-ups around us on the ladder this weekend, this is a huge opportunity to continue the move up the ladder and stake a real claim on top 4.

    We need to limit their I50s cause their fwd line is dangerous.

    If it's wet, I'd be bringing in McLean as a bigger body who can get his hands dirty, and dropping JOD. Apart from that, we have the squad to get to work and win.

    At this early stage the forecast isn't that bad with 0-2mm and:

    Very high chance of showers, most likely later in the day.
    Of course that will likely change but the majority of the game could be dry.

    Surely Clarke isn’t getting a game off the back of 6 disposals and 0.1 in the twos.

    Much as O'Donnell was a surprising inclusion he was at least getting 15+ disposals regularly.

    Big big game. Just when we start looking good we tend to stuff up. The crows will test us again. I feel a need for speed but we don't have a lot to inject. We know no Adz, Flea looked sore, and assuming Bevo isn't playing games he said JOD is in.
    So McNeill in for JOD who subs. IF JOD is a fake call then either VDM or Crozier in, both if Flea is out. I would have liked Roarke Smith in but he's still weeks away.

    Not a hole but a collapsed lung wasn't it?

    We are all good.

    It's mostly a misleading term, collapsed lung. Usually air needs to escape to the chest cavity to then put pressure on the outside of the lung to stop it from expanding.

    In other cases lungs are just soft cocks.
    Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

    TOB played really well in the Footscray game on the weekend. JOD struggled, as you'd expect from someone who had been selected well before he was ready. Maybe common sense will prevail and we'll see a swap on Saturday.

    Are you suggesting TOB plays forward? He hasn't really played there since his Hawks days has he? I guess it didn't stop us playing JOD forward after 3 games in the backline in the VFL.

    I don't have much evidence for the below, call it gut feel.

    I suspect we will go in with no changes, given what Bevo has said about JOD.

    I also suspect we won't try too hard to negate their forward line because I don't think we can deal well with fast smalls. I think it's going to be mostly decided in the midfield, but because of the weather it won't be a shootout but an arm wrestle.

    I suspect we will win the clearance count given recent form, and Marra and Naughton will do well even in the wet. However, they may have the edge because of Cameron, who always gets away from us and scores 3-5.

    I think Leon has snuck down there for a hit out.
