Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3

Aliir changed his role in week 1 of the finals - didn't take a tall and was often on Gryen Miers.
I suspect Aliir will probably try and go to Hannan even if we name three tall forwards.
I'm actually comfortable with this- Hannan is a scragger who will take himself out of the play. If we can find a way to manufacture English on either Jonas or Trent McKenzie that's a huge win for us. Neither of them are big KPDs. Then Naughton gets to jump at everything in sight. JJ or VDM wear DBJ like and absolute glove all night.

It may be counter-intuitive considering Aliir is the best intercepting KPD in the competition right now (because Stewart is injured) but the high ball into the F50 might actually work for us.

I doubt English sees much dedicated forward time this week.

Hannan did a magnificent job on Steven May when we beat them - and May is a superior player to Allir, albeit slightly different types. So I'm happy for Allir to go to Hannan as there is some confidence that he can make a good fist of it.

You'd hope our mids and half forwards will adhere to a plan and avoid kicking to him also!

That’s exactly how you beat Allir. Make him accountable!

This feels a little like 2010 when we were beaten up heading into the prelim.

2010 we had a lot of injuries going into the game.

So, if worse comes to worse and Keath has twanged a hamstring. Who takes Dixon? Cordy ?

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3

Edmond going stronger now, says Keath won’t play.

Shit. That’s gonna be a tough hill to climb now.

Re: Always Right Match Committee - Finals Week 3

So we’re going into a prelim without our leading goal scorer, best small forward, best defender and an injury concern to our best player. Awesome. And people think we’re lucky.
