I’m okay with Sidey coming back in this week, but only if it’s at the expense of another veteran (e.g. Mitchell or Hoskin-Elliott). Otherwise we shouldn’t be messing with last week’s formula I reckon.

it is a must win game, they have very few big name players. An aspiring finalist should not be losing to Hawthorn at this stage.
so, pick your best side, the side you believe will have the best chance of winning. Don't worry about who is a veteran or not, don't worry about giving new players a game or not, Just pick your best side. |

Absolutely never match up against Hawthorn...EVER. Don't understand.. Hate losing to them.
Can't remember the last time we beat them. The prelim n 2011 was what I remember.

We beat the hawks the year before last by less than a kick in a wet slog in the end at the g after a faster start. But I see what you are saying about hard to remember wins. That last win was after our least successful period against them going back to that pf in 2011. Buckley coached them for one win in his 10 years at the helm.
We should be right if we bring the same pressure to bear as we did against Brisbane and I think we will.

Hawthorn will be a danger game for sure. We did well upping the pressure last week but now need to grow it still further or at least maintain it for this game. If we dont they will have us.
I hope they dont bring Sidebottom back unless he has demonstrated a marked improvement in form. Otherwise he will be found out once again.
If people dont want to play McCrae then give Sullivan a go for a couple of games. It sounds like he is ready to go and is a mature player.
And if any of them go near Naicos this time, wipe the MCG with them!

Yep, I am sure Fly has formulated a plan to deal with any thugs who think they can rough up Naicos, on the instructions of knee jerk Mitchell.
No doubt, Bruzza will be a key part of it.

Yep agree, but will have to be WHE who misses out, because we need Mitchell in the midfield atm. That is why it is so crucial for us to trial our other potential inside mids. I would like to see Fin given another opportunity, but failign that then Sullivan to come on board. Because Titch can't do it by himself. He urgently needs a reinforcement, and we urgently need to establish who it will be.

Of course in the week leading up to the game against Collingwood. |
yeh, sure is, ive change my view on the little race track head ducker. Soon as whining sniper Mitchell pissed an moaned re the free kicks, ran like a baby to the League to complain, ( I dont recall us doing that ) I said to meself, "here we go, dont touch the little bastard,cos against us, he will get the friggin earth in frees, all within easy shot at the Hawk goals. So, take heed Bruzza, be very very careful when you tackle the little shit, the umps will pay it against you for the very, very slightest touch up

| Instruction to all pies, if ginnavin takes possession just aim a bump tackle at his exposed ribs, drive their shoulder into exposed ribs as he lifts his arm to attract high tackle |

Noble will picked in the 18 to take the field. He deserves to be treated with respect unlike last season when he was dumped for the GF having played all year. That still doesn’t sit well with me irrespective of winning the flag 😫

I'm hoping for minimal changes to last week's winning team. Maybe Sullivan for McCrae would be a reasonable move but apart from that leave well alone.

McRae has already suggested that Sidney is back in so there will be at least one change.
Out: Howe (managed)
In: Sidebottom
Sub: Hoskin-Elliott
Minimal changes for us.
Hawks have lost Watson, Lewis and Breust all injured.
It is a damn shame that the VFL are not playing this week- would have been great to have seen Krueger, Ryan, Begg, Jath, Sullivan, Allan, Bytel, Richards, Carmichael, Dean, Parker, Markov ply their trade.
If we were going left-field this week, it may be the chance to give Ed Allan a taste of AFL- his form in the VFL has been strong and he is very quick over the ground.
