    I think Fox taking the 2nd or 3rd tall forward might actually be the making of him.

    I suspect he'll be playing backup ruckman, which is a role he has played in the past.

    Thus leaving Aliir in defence.
    Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it's time to pause and reflect... MT

    Fox 186cm vs Goldstein 201cm. I don't think that we can expect silver service from that match up.

    Maclean in Macinerny out.

    Maybe that is a better matchup for the north Melbourne talls

    McLean to help Sinkers against Goldstein. Will require some positional reshuffling with McLean having to spend a lot of time forward. Possibly Heeney to the middle but my guess is Blakey to the wing where hopefully he will be a better kick inside fifty than most of the team last week.

    I'll try again:

    Two late changes for #AFLNorthSwans

    NM
    Aiden Bonar in for Ben Cunnington

    Sydney
    Hayden McLean in for Justin McInerney

    I am glad Mclean gets a chance. He looked good last season. Aggressive, fairly mobile, ok skills and can take a mark above his head.

    Also I don't think it was sustainable for McCartin to have to be the only tall forward every week.

    Good in but a bit harsh on McInerney, thought he was better than a lot of our players last week

    The selectors listened to you!

    Thanks. I was a bit wrong about Gray though - he's been good.
