OUT: Fogarty (inj), Docherty, Carroll

We are going out with a 23 that consists of....
Weitering, Silvagni, McGovern, Haynes, Young.
How many (3rd) tall backs can you fit in 1 side.
I would've thought Young would have to miss.

Waving the white flag already !!

You’re not complaining that we have too many tall defenders 🤣

Weitering and Silvagni will be the two KPDs. Young will fill in in the ruck and KPD/KPF. Haynes and McGovern will be the intercept/third talls and Cowan, Saad and Ollie will take the small/medium forwards.

And, speaking of small forwards, we’re going with four small forwards, five if Binns plays forward. Stopping Wanganeen-Milera’s run might be a priority.

It's the first time in years we haven't got a kpd who is injured so we are celebrating and playing them all at once.
Amusing as that is, is st.kilda the team to be attempting that feat? I'm more worried about their small forwards rather than their tall ones.

Need to be careful with our matchups on Wanganeen Milera and Sinclair in particular. We have a bad habit of repeating previous mistakes and getting burnt by the same players doing the same things..

Against Coburg
Evans-18 disposals, second best in the tackle count , second in clearances, second in inside 50s, led the score involvements.

He may not have impacted at AFL level for us yet, but he will be replacing Fogarty and that's probably a specific role.

Credit given where it's due, to our collective surprise, Frankie has upped his game and shown good form in the Magoos... deserved a call-up, now to see if he can deliver at senior level.

Seems a little too top-heavy. A late change or two?

There's one thing about Voss IMO, he never singles out players, lines coaches, list, he always implies "we need to get better", "we need to go to work on...", he implies whole of club. He doesnt drop players at the first sign of poor form, he backs them in to fight through tough times. Many will see this as weakness, I see this as a strong quality.

I don't want to see a mis-matched, unbalanced side run out. The named side is

?
How many games do you back a bloke in to come good? Docherty is clearly at the broken patience stage. In out in out.
Are they going to let the "usual suspects" do their thing- Steele owning Cripps for example. At least one of our bugbears has left to Collingwood, thankfully. Just watch some craptruck pop up and kick a bag.
