Dunkley is taller than Crameri.

I'd prefer Dunkley with his midfield ability.

I think they had two last week as well in Foote and Florent

How many teams have 3 premiership players as emergencies?

Re: Match Committee - Round 2 2017 vs Sydney Swans

The core of Sydney's team remains, but the depth just isn't there with 4-6 players missing... Surprised Allir doesn't come in.

If we get an even performance ( as per GF) we win.

Re: Match Committee - Round 2 2017 vs Sydney Swans

Looks like a very strong team and the Swans are missing a few good players from their GF line up. We are in the box seat to win this. Go out and get the job done boys. Go Dogs!

Re: Match Committee - Round 2 2017 vs Sydney Swans

I've been fantasising all pre-season of FF Tom Boyd, CHF Trav Cloke, Crammers & Stringer doing their thing and rotating seriously talented players through the forwardline in Bonts, Picken, Daniel, Dahl, Bob, JJ, Hunter etc.

Now to see if the fantasy lives up the hype in mind.

Re: Match Committee - Round 2 2017 vs Sydney Swans

Three 190cm+ club leading goal kickers in all our forwardline tomorrow night in Stringer (WB), Crameri (Ess) & Cloke (Coll), and a 200cm+ bloke arguably best on ground in the Premiership.

Not many teams could boast that.

I'm with you. I've been really keen to see if we could make this forward structure work. Stringer should be licking his lips.

Dunks was very good in the Grand Final.

Re: Match Committee - Round 2 2017 vs Sydney Swans

Despite Dale being out I believe our defence will be fine. Huge opportunity for Adams and I'm hoping he can capture that early season 2016 form build more on that.

Will Campbell play most of the time in the ruck tomorrow night? We need to be better in this area. Roughy will be back very soon.

I don't see how he can after missing a fair chunk of the pre-season and having only one game leading into tomorrow night.
I'd think a 50/50 split with Boyd, resting forward. Cloke to play up the ground and stay the hell out of the ruck.

Yeah that sounds wise Mofra.

Re: Match Committee - Round 2 2017 vs Sydney Swans

The Swans trained at MHS in South Yarra late today. I think at the last minute they asked to use the ground as their plane was delayed, that meant they needed to loosen up and missed being able to do so at another venue previously organised.

I had a boxing session at a gym my mate runs there, they were only doing loosening up and goal kicking when I was there, Alir was there.

Big shout out to Stewart Dew, I had to go and couldn't stay for long, but did ask on my way out as I was walking past him and the other assistant coaches as they were manning behind the goals whether they had any spare Sherrins, as it's a long season and ammo clubs can struggle to keep a good feed of balls flowing through. It seemed a fair thing given they took up a chunk of the ground unplanned. He said he might have a few, and true to his word he left the lads with three, which I thought was a nice touch.
