Was thinking about Jongy's inclusion, maybe he's going to be Timmy's ruck partner for the night?

He deserves his spot, he did well in the two games he played.

Noted. Pretty disappointing but am I surprised?? No.

Schache and Dale need to perform. Simple as that.

Wood plays 3rd tall which allows Williams and Crozier a little more freedom ala butler.

I think Vanda is the perfect Lloyd replacement in theory has better small forward attributes than Lloyd, while agree Lippa, Mclean and West will help out in this area also.

Jongy will play wing, midfield and high half forward interchanging with the players above. We have won the last two weeks because of the aggression at the contest across the board, Jongy adds to it.

Outside of Naughty of course, we are a better side this week its nice to add some maturity to the group.

Huh? Vanda has better forward craft than our leading goal kicker last year?

Good to see Schache back as Bruce who replaced him is yet to impress. Wood’s experience makes the team look stronger whilst Jong’s competitive spirit and determination is also a good inclusion.
North will provide much tougher opposition than Sydney and always play well against us.
Expect another close encounter.

Personally, I think we set the performance/expectations bar quite low for Jongy and he gets a fair bit of love for having a crack.
Can't fault his effort, and whilst we certainly have enough youth in the side - Jong is 27 years of age and has eeked out 60 odd games and never really been embedded in the senior team.

My preference would have been a specialist forward to come in so that we can have one less mid rotating forward - because we just aren't getting bang for buck when mids go forward.

The only other player that was a possible is Dickson, and we don't know where he is at.

Agreed and I'm leaning more towards Jong's experience as opposed to an inexperienced forward.

I like those inclusions. Hopefully Schache will have an immediate affect in that forward line.
