Bucks said Moore had a tight hammy , so he came off not to risk it. I’m not sure what that means, but there’s still hope he’s ok.
He said a Thomas pulled up ok too.
Go pies!
....and go Hawks......aaaaand Lions! |

Yeah MTTM, it's a goddam shame for him and us and very deflating.
I sometimes wonder, trying to be optimistic, if it's a maturation problem and something he could grow out of. Even if he was given a year off footy and put on a special program to fix the damn things, maybe that would work?
Looking at it from the team angle though, we have so many players, especially Grundy, that we need to use our salary cap on. How can we afford to carry him? We've been lucky to have been able to persist with Jamie during a period when our better players were all locked in, but it's different now that Grundy has emerged as an out and out star. |

Drop Warner, who the **** smiles walking off after a second ball duck.
Oh Sorry Nicksters.
So who gets dropped for DeGod and Stevo? |

Huge amount of upside for the Pies.
JDG Stevo and Sidey back
Aside from the obvious stars, Noble is a very smart player and can beat quality smalls. Good user of the footy. Great pick up by the recruiting team.
The defence is good. The balance of the midfield is good. The forward line is dangerous. If we can build through September we are a chance

I am concerned about how Essendon's McKierney reeled in 11 marks against us. That is is an issue going forward. We need to get better at punching the ball away. I think Roughie needs to go back to defence, and then with Stepho, JDG and Elliott we play a small forward line, with Checkers as the mobile marking target.

Settle. We dominated the second half. Just couldn’t kick straight. Heaps to work with. |
Correct weight

McKernan's quite a talent. I saw him demolish us at the G in the last game of the year a few years back. He's just not all that consistent although he's improved over the years.

TBH he has lifted in recent weeks but still one of the most replacable players right now with STevo and Dego coming back and Elliot hitting form. |

Absolutely spot on MTTM. No other way to go to my mind. |

Until we get some clarification over the health of Moore, de Goey, Sidebottom and see what the VFL holds tomorrow it's hard to give a strong opinion on selection 2 weeks out.
If Stephenson, de Goey and Sidebottom all return then you'd think at least one of Varcoe, Thomas or Brown would have to make way.
I'd be loathe to remove the demented wombat in Wills as his physical style seems to be helping our more polished midfielders gain cleaner ball on the outside.
