what are we to make of the dees' performance vs north? hobart hurricane aside the dees have showed they can match it with a top four team.
sidey and varcoe return possibly for moore (or blair if moore is not injured) and williams. thought white looked ok today but need to watch a replay.

A repeat of the late 2015 result looks most probable.
And they have one less day than us to recover too.

No White, please. If we need to bring in a tall to replace Moore, lets give Cox a go.

Cox is a rookie listed player, can he be picked?

Yep, play the Yank. Gawn is flogging Goldstein in hitouts at the moment. I'm tired of Witts handbagging his way through a game.

We can elevate Cox, can't we?
Whether back or forward, we know what White will bring to the team. I'd rather we look at our future options.
Terrible news about Marsh, otherwise I would have liked to see him given a sustained crack at it.

Was out watching the 2's today. Marsh has ice on his hammy and didn't play the last. Toovey, frost, white and all very underwhelming. White made some awful decisions as was pretty frustrated with himself at one point. I honestly couldn't see anyone putting their hand up to solve our backline woes in the seniors.
Gault did naught up forward.
The only shinning light for me was the return of broomhead who seemed a cut above the rest though he might still need another week.
And cox. Cox raises an interesting one for me. He was super competitive, clunked a couple and really for such a big guy is pretty good at ground level. I'd love to see him get a go, especially if witts still isn't right.
He only gets let down by his kicking at times.....so really he should fit right into the seniors.

Buckley and his assistants should watch how the Hawks structure and set up.
Man on man is when opposition have the ball and spread to create options when the have it. Pretty simple really

Jojo, can't remember the last time we were reduced to prayer by round 3?
I'm guessing 2004-2005 era?

Well ideally we should have blokes running past him for the handball give.
We should, but we don't.

Go for 2016 VFL premiership as good grounding for the bottom part of our list.
Aim (hope) for some AFL finals experience in 2016. Balance that against building the shared experience of the 2017-2018 likely best 22 - can be done at both AFL and VFL levels.
Sidey and Varcoe for Goodyear and Maynard.
Toovey for Williams (if inj).
Do we need another tall defender (Frost) vs Melbourne?
