Ins:

Hudson
Ray

Outs:

Skipper
Reid

I do not want to drop Higgins, Hill or Harbow but can we afford to play all three? If we bring in one of Everitt or Wight which one of the above makes way from them. FWIW I think we need Ray, Hill and Habrow in the side. So my guess would be Higgins goes. Can Hill play as 3rd man up against Buddy thus making the inclusion of Wight or Everitt irrelevant?

Re: Ins and Outs - qualifying Final

In : Hudson, Ray, Tiller.

Out: Reid, Higgins, Harbrow.

Reasoning: Hudson- if fit it's a no brainer.
Ray - Big game experience, has performed in finals.
Tiller - Wildcard. Can compete physically with big Hawk bodies, I hope. Played v Haw last time.

Reid - Not his time. not strong enough yet.
Higgins -Needs more defensive pressure in his game, unlucky.
Harbrow- Very unlucky, only major fault is he goes missing for too long in games.

Skipper remains as a third. Swing man b/w defence.attack/ruck/bench as required. Maybe I've taken too much pace out of side???

In: Hudson, Ray, Wight

Out: Reid, Skipper, Harbrow

The first two ins are gimmies IMO, and Wight could help stop Buddy in 2-on-1 scenarios, which looms as our only hope without Tommy.

Harbrow is very, very unlucky, but Hill is just ever so slightly ahead of him at this stage.

I agree with this, Higgins is unfortunate but he's not ready to give us what we need, especially in Finals. Ray really needs to stand up though, he's in trouble.

Who is Tiller going to pick up?

Exactly how I am thinking too.

Campbell Brown might play forward - though Hargrave might be a more appropriate matchup.

Tiller on Roughead? Lake third man up on Buddy? Just ideas

Does Gilbee take Williams and Callan Rioli?

I'm sure Hargrave will be plan B if Buddy shreds Morris.

I still lean to Hudson & Tiller as the only ins (for Skip & Reid) though I'm starting to think Ray might take Higgins' spot. Harbrow would be very unlucky, and Hill keeps getting a fair bit of it.

Cambell Brown looks like he might miss out Hudson and Wight in for me with Harbrow and Skipper out

Re: Ins and Outs - qualifying Final

I'd venture to say that if Ray doesn't get picked for the finals he may as well start packing his bags.

Re: Ins and Outs - qualifying Final

Why put in Wight?

[Ozza]

Re: Ins and Outs - qualifying Final

Can't believe people are suggesting Tiller gets a game. Ludicrous.
And if Wight didn't get a game last week - then it would be very surprising to see him get a game this week.

Ins: Hudson, Ray
Outs: Skipper Reid.

Reason you think its ludicrous?

I'm worried about Gilbee on Williams, Williams may be too smart for him in the air. He guards space deceptively well does Williams and I'd prefer Hargrave on him. Callan on Brown (not ideal but Brown is only 177cm!) and Gilbee on Rioli (Rioli way too quick and smart for Callan he will tear him apart). I wish we had another plan B other than Shaggy on Buddy, but I don't want it to be Tiller.
