Always Right Match Committee R2 vs Collingwood 2025

[Danny Delre]

Buss in.
Buku in
Dolan sub
Arty into the 22

[Jackodog]

Busslinger/Gardner in if JOD doesn’t get up..
i’d prefer to see Busslinger but can understand why we would go with Gardner as it’s a big game in front of 80,000

Poulter for Cleary.. move Gallagher back to defence and Poulter play wing/half forward role

Dolan/Arty paper scissors rock as to who’s the sub and who’s in the 22.. I’d give Dolan another go personally

[SquirrelGrip]

Did they predict a plan to run with Daicos?

Yes, how do we play Nick Daicos? From memory Gags went to him last year and was destroyed, before Bont went head to head in the last quarter. (https://www.afl.com.au/news/1141154/...s-unbeaten-run)

My guess is they'll play Crisp on Richards. Would we have Harmes go with Daicos?

I have never seen value in Arty. Sure, I like watching him play, and he gives us leg speed, but only in isolated flashes. I have never seen him have any lasting impact on any game he has played in.

Do we want to lose? This might work for 3 minutes before Nick burns him off.

Freijah is one of our fittest players, so I wonder if he would be considered to play a defensive/accountable role?

Buss time. Has to be.

The longer it goes without, the more like a bust he's looking

if he can’t get a game over Gardner and Buku then that says it all.

Gags played half back all of last week. Did okay but he over uses it at times

I assume Khamis is the one who comes in, but it's good to see Bevo remembers Busslinger exists.

[Boots]

I've never watched a VFL match (shameful I know) but if Buss does come in, what should we expect? I hear some people say he's good, and some say he's bad. It seems like a long time before a debut, but we sat on Darcy for a while too... I find it hard to get a bead on Buss.

He's a full back type. Good mark. Biggest issue is that he takes an extra second to make his decision before moving the ball on.

Given comments in mjp's thread on Cleary, he'll fit right in

I'm a sucker for the cult of the new, I'll gladly take an unknown quantity over a known one in a pinch.

Bustlinger?

Rules Gardner out, basically said it's out of those two.

Think of Fletcher Roberts than add height.
Old school FB type yet he was drafted primarily as an interceptor. I rate him more than others do.
