I suspect you are wrong, Ch.7 have the 7pm Bulldogs / Handbaggers game listed!

Be interesting to see how Walsh an Weitering pull up, hopefully they are ok and play. We need our best on the park for the remainder of the season.

Indeed. Walsh is a warrior, but he needs to be fit to get the best from himself.
Weitering needs time on the park to get some confidence back. He is not playing that well at the moment. he actually started the year a bit like this, and warmed into it. By the time we played Sydney, Weitering was at his best and dominated Franklin. That's what we need in the finals.
Young is the other one who has gone backwards lately. He isn't holding his marks at the moment and often two-hand punches where he was out-marking opponents earlier in the year. He needs to get that marking back.
One thing that was definitely in our favour was that McGovern was marking the ball pretty well. He'll get better at that as he gains more confidence .
Today was the a perfect opportunity to show how valuable Pittonet was earlier in the year. Tom de Koning struggles against the real Bull rucks. The other athletic rucks he usually beats.
Tom also doesn't direct his taps as well as Pittonet does. It is everything he can do to get his hand on the ball. Three or four time he gets it right and puts it down a mid's throat. They look just so good. But that is not the norm.

Small forwards are really disappointing and don't see them lifting when the heat is on as they havn't really all year - our talls doing it all. Understand we are playing the long game with them but how long?.... throw kitchen sink at Rankine and trade some players out.

I think Durdin and Motts will be fine, they need experience playing together and learning how to get at the feet of the tall timber. They chase and harass and do all the 1% team stuff, just need to hit the scoreboard more often, it will come I reckon. Im tipping Durds will light it up this week in Adelaide in front of family and friends.
