This looks like one of our stronger sides for the year, for what it is worth. But more than a few of these guys appear to be on the way out. Still, hopefully they can deliver the goods this week. After all, Boekhorst did last week. I am certain he had never got 30 or more possessions in a game before. In that regard Whiley was a little unlucky.

Minson usually plays well against Wood, but so usually did Orren Stephenson. Jordon Russell has played extremely well against us in recent times.
Live Long and Prosper!

I always like this graphic. With Carlton playing on Saturday it is a fair bet that we will actually line up something like this, for a chance. The 3 emergencies will probably go to Sydney - why not when the game is on at so early on Saturday? But they will want to play om Sunday.
Live Long and Prosper!

Cripps is at CHB in the development squad.  Does anyone have any idea of how he's going?

The opportunity is there for guys willing and able to take it. There will be at least 1 change.

Sounds like Everitt has done some good work.

Jaksch springs the counter, Everitt splits two Dogs to mark and McKay does the rest. #WeMarchNorth #PJVFL"

Bloody freezing at Ikon.  Jones has worked hard both in front of goals and up and down the ground.  Everitt has shown more interest here than he did for weeks in the ones.  McKay is getting to contests but in a pack situation is very easily worked off the ball. He has a permanent miss match in height but they are not exploiting it. KJ has done some nice first effort things but is still a spectator if it doesn't come off. Rainbow is also showing it but down back. Fingers have now got frost bite!!

Bloody cold out here at PP. Camedown to have a look at Big Harry, has shown some good signs, takes the ball at highest point which will hold him in good stead in the years to come, needs to out on a bit of beef.
Nice to see JR still running around for the Dogs, still goes ok????

Liam Jones obviously realizes that there is a forward place up for grabs in the ones next week. Really putting in a solid performance.

Liam Jones has taken two great pack chest marks to start the third qtr and nailed the first goal of the qtr, Blues by 22.

Hopefully as a 2nd key forward. Will struggle like everyone else if he's the only one.
