Robert Heatley Stand / Re: AFL Finals 2024 Carlton vs Brisbane in Brisbane
To get to a GF you have to win the EF first. You picks a fit side to win. No good picking underdone players and losing.
No good winning the EF if you can't then pick a side that would win the GF. If you don't pick guys like Cerra and TDK this week, makes it even harder to pick them next week, one more week without match fitness.
Our best 22 in form can go all the way, the guys they've picked are in that group.

I like the side, although Cinc is very unlucky.
Think the MC had no choice but to play all the guys coming back from injury, got to remember the end game here is to win a flag, not just an elimination final. Need to win 4 games to do that and our best chance of that is to get games in to the guys who have been out for long periods with injuries and have our best possible 22 on the field for the GF.
Have to roll the dice.

Weather is a tough read at the moment, forecast is changing rapidly but it now looks like the worst will pass by late afternoon.

We need every ticketed Bluebagger to turn up loud and enthusiastic, it's conditions like that when a big pro-Bagger crowd can make a difference, just ask Harmes and Sheldon!

Rain Hail or Snow, been waiting too long for this to let a bit of weather keep me away. Go Baggers.

So it's confirmed, Pitto will play this week, https://www.sen.com.au/news/2023/09/06/blues-confirm-at-least-one-change-for-elimination-final-acres-locked-in/
Looks like 4 changes with Doc, Crippa and most likely Mots also getting a gig. Good news also with Acres passing a fitness test and set to play.
I'm guessing Cincotta for Doc, Dow for Crippa, Durds for Mots, who comes out for Pitto I have no idea.
Dow to replace Marchy as sub?

I'd like to win this week and be assured of a home final, but the most important thing is getting our team primed for the first final -

In - Cerra, Walsh, Kennedy, McGovern, Fogarty
Out - (Omitted) Marchy, Ed.  (Rested) Hollands, Crippa, Cunners
Sub - Dow

For the first final we will need to make some hard decisions, Hollands v Cottrell, Boyd v Fish, Fog v Cunners, Sub between Kennedy and Hewy.

We are going to have a few blokes missing out that deserve a game Paddy Dow included.

If we can get a win this week then subject to other results Rnd 24 might not mean much to us, but it could be a big deal for GWS so it might a good time to give someone like Binns a run against quality opposition while we take the opportunity to freshen one or two others up before the finals.

With the Bye before the finals, would you rest guys in the last round? Is a two week break detrimental?

McGovern didnt like the heat in battle or responsibility and his contesting work was embarrassing imho....when he put in the short steps and threw half an arm out in a feeble way he should have been dragged and told some home truths. Rather play Kemp, Cowan or Cincotta at least they will give effort and try.
I feel sorry for Voss having to front the media and defend players who wont give effort.....

Like x 100. Players who don't go 100% cannot be played, Acres and Motlop are on the border there as well.
