    Next you will be saying we dont need Goodes or Jack[
    You are drawing a long bow there. My supposition was that Grundy was well beaten by Cloke last time and Daws may not play, so it may turn out that we need another running player as opposed to a hulking backman.

    I'd like to see Spangher get a game this week.
    Showed on the weekend he can take a mark.
    Tough call but Spangher is a taller and bigger.
    Leave LRT down back. Grundy go forward.
    Need to negate Reid. Their Reid.
    He killed us last time and he killed WC on Sat.

    Probably drop Morton. And assuming Benny is not up to it this week yet.

    Wouldn't bring Spangher in, he hasn't played all year for a reason.
    Like the idea of Grundy forward, could play a defencive role on Reid.
    Still like Armstrong's chances, uses the ball very well, play him on a wing.

    Go Bloods

    Could give Spang the green vest.
    We need some one to play a defensive forward on Reid. Maybe even Reid!!

    Armstrong was very good against Geelong.
    Who would you replace him with?
    Mal??

    Yeah I'd drop Kennedy, Goodes, O'Keefe and Jack. All made disposal errors of some description against the Crows.

    Sub will be interesting though.

    Maybe Malceski as sub

    I'd like to see Parker get a full game.
    Apart from what I'd like to see, I reckon this is it.
    We're not renowned for making wholesale changes, and not many teams do it in finals.

    Parker has the body size and hopefully the stamina to match it with the Pies mids.

    Surely if you were going to play someone as a defensive forward then LRT will play that role.

    You wouldnt risk playing Grundy in a position he hasnt played for years in a game as important as this.

    Yes in all the games I have seen it has been either Reid or maxwell just dropping back and marking almost uncontested. It was @@@@ting me against west coast. I mean how many times did they pick him out. Agreed it might be a fantastic idea to play a defensive forward role on him, keep him accountable and earn those marks. Sam probably wouldn't be the best option, Ben gave him a bath a few matches back. Besides we need someone to bring the ball to ground so as crazy as it may sound reg would be a good option. I can't see it happening though so maybe lrt? Think we are a really good chance to break the hoodoo this time. We have closed the gap considerably and it was only our misuse of the ball last time. If we kick accurately for goal we will win!

    Not to sure, if Dawes doesn't come up maybe we don't need 2 ruckmen as LRT can do it when Mummy is resting up forward.
