    Re: Preliminary Final - WOOF Selection Table

    If Hahn plays he will have to play forward. To much of a liability to play down back.

      But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

        Himself off the canvas? He doesn't have a match up out there, too slow to go with anyone not tall enough to compete.

          I'm sure he'll play forward, but I wouldn't be surprised to seem him do some rotations through the midfield, especially if it become a tight lockdown type of struggle. He did that against the Swans in the last quarter and won a few clearances with his bullocking style.

            Agree with that.

            If he could take Fisher or Blake out of the game when forward, snag a goal or two (or even create them) and win a few hard balls he would have done his job.

            Just not sure he can.

              Truly, bar no other game in the season, this is the ideal Mitch Hahn stage.

              Or it should be.

              Tough, tight, bullocking, pressure games.

                This term is always used to describe Hahn's style of play, unfortunately he can't even get to contests anymore to use it. I hope I eat humble pie on Saturday night regarding Hahn, but all his possessions appear rushed which seriously compromises his disposal efficiency and ultimately our ability to go forward with any structure. Best he gets ball and handballs to someone in a blue jumper.

                He just needs to go hammer and tong and kill, kill, kill. I would give Hahn clear instructions to do a Mark Yeates on BJ at the first bounce on Saturday night and then bring Hill in for the Granny.

                  Mitch Hahn gets the same job that Welshy had last year; line up next to Sam Gilbert and ****ing terrorise him.

                  If he's not prepared to be a **** for 2 hours, then he doesn't play.

                    Hooper - only 5 disposals last week, good experience will be a regular next year

                      It would mean we are a fair chance of winning if this happened. I would be very suprised if the winning team kicks more than 12 goals.

                        I can't see us kicking more than this amount and to do so Hall will probably have to kick 5 or 6.

                        If St.Kilda spilt us open I can see them kicking 14 to 16.

                          Saints haven't even had 16 scoring shots against us in the last 2 matches, let alone 16 goals. It was 7.7 in Round 6 and 9.6 in the PF. Not saying it can't happen, but we would have to implode pretty horribly for the Saints to get to 100 points.

                            If we dished up a like performance to what was offered against Collingwood just 2 weeks back I would think that St.Kilda will rack up a reasonable score.

                            Hopefully such a performance won't be presented and our efforts in the 2 previous PF's suggest it won't, but I still have some lingering doubts.

                              Hahn up forward if we have to. Bigger body and has some games under the belt.

                                I completely agree. Saints haven't really kicked a score against decent oppo for a long time , on average, if we kick more than 70 points we win. 10.10.
