Fogs tackling is elite and is a huge loss.

But Harry averages two tackles a game to Fogs five.... so we are giving up a bit on forward tackling pressure.
Gold Coast play with three tall key defenders - Ballard, Collins and Andrew and need to cut Charlie some slack and drag a key back away from his zone. Despite the loss of Fogs we will still have four small forwards to their three small backs with Charlie freed up abit.

Cottrell and Cuningham both play their 50th game. Well done and good luck to both.

Fogarty is a huge loss, hopefully the forwards maintain the pressure that he added to the side 8 weeks ago.

Fantastic. We should win then.

And what different routes they’ve taken to get to their 50 game milestones.

Both would have wondering if they would get there.

Congratulations to Cuners and Cotters 👏

Hopefully that is now firmly established team culture.
Reality always wins in the end.

Chol in I believe. As is Sexton, who has played well against us in the past as I recall.

It's simple. Bring what we've been bringing and the W will follow. Conditions there can play a role. Let's hope we start well and hunt 4q.

Go Blues

Agree, add to that:
- Don't get beaten by what you know (or learnt from last time).
- Don't take this mob lightly, players will be auditioning for their new Cocker, some will be playing for the football lives.
Anything less than what we have brought the last 7 or 8 weeks and  it could go against us, but I dont want to think about that.

If we’re good enough and deserve a real finals spot, we’ll win convincingly.

As GIC suggests, "those who ignore the lessons of history are doomed to repeat it".
We need to approach this game with the memory of the bitter pill we had to swallow at the end of last year burnt deep.

We know the disappointment.
It's inconceivable that we would take any of the last two game with anything less than a full-on effort.

Sub from Honey and Ed Curnow😕 Surely JSOS offers more flexibility?!? Probably means that Doc is in otherwise Boyd might have been elevated to emergency.
