Let's hear ya !!

[swoop42]

Out: Sidebottom(inj), Williams/Oxley

In:Karnezis, Kennedy/Broomhead

We may not see more than the one forced change but I wouldn't mind taking in a more attacking line up in front of our home crowd possibly under the controlled conditions of a roof.

I think with Sidebottom missing we'll probably need to inject two young midfield players to try and negate his absence.

I think we can get away with dropping at least one half back flanker type in favour of more run through the midfield and/or in attack.

[Dave The Man]

Hope we pull up well for being gone at 3qtr time

[perthmagpie]

We have to bring in Kennedy and I'd like to know if White rolled his ankle cos if he did Gault has to come in.

[swoop42]

Next weeks game will be a step up in quality against an opponent who has had our measure of late.

Still Sanderson has gone so it will be interesting to see how the new coach goes tomorrow as it will Port Adelaide without him.

Collingwood Adelaide contests are generally hard fought and I think the crows have a pretty good record against us at docklands.

I don't think Oxley will get dropped Swoop! He showed enough for me that he deserves to stay in the side next week.

Kennedy is definitely the obvious inclusion for mine and potentially Broomhead. We also need another tall forward as I felt we were one tall forward short tonight from dominating at one stage.

Swoop42 made a number of good points.
I would keep playing Ox and the Ram.

[mattys123]

Gault has to play, Grundy was buggered half way through the third term last night, and with Witts not ready to we need a back up ruckman.

[BazBoy]

Next week we go again and looks like Sidebottom replacement needed
Kennedy ,Broomhead or Freemam for mid duties
Their backs at times had me nervous so do we tweek the backs --Seedsman mebbee

[TimetoFly]

Williams will play he killed betts last year

[RudeBoy]

Given our dominance until injuries and fatigue took hold, it's hard to imagine Bucks will make too many changes, but nevertheless I'd like to see the following:

Out: Sidey (inj), Oxley, Goldsack

In: Kennedy, Karnezis, Witts (or Gault).

Oxley, did OK and would be a bit unlucky to miss, but I suspect he was the extra small defender played to suit the wet conditions in Brissy. I know he's a good tackler, but honestly, I'm just about over Goldy. He simply does not get his hands on the ball enough. I'd like to see De Goey start on the ground this week. As much as I'd like to see Broomhead back in the side, I'd like to see him dominate at VFL first. Same goes for Freeman.

[choppa]

Really wanna see karnezis get a game....reckon he is capable of kicking 3-4 goals.

[What'sinaname]

Let's hope Adelaide have a tough game today against the Kangas. Some sore and tired bodies would be helpful.

Missing Sidebottom is a problem.
