I would make one change....Byrne's time is up.

Kent is the perfect replacement.

The only play that let me down was Frawley. He's part of that Bailey era core group that has major lapses and just doesn't work hard enough at times. He sometimes (always) has the judgement of a backman when playing forward. That kick out on the full just can't happen.

Pedersen is genuinely in our best 22 now.

He was fantastic yesterday. The best midget ruckman in the league.

JKH - how good is he?!

Forgot to mention Nev Jetta. 10 out of 10. The unsung hero yesterday.

Byrnes did his bit but look forward to seeing Kent back in the side.

Need a bloke like Byrnes in the side, just not sure Byrnes is that guy. I'd rather Kent, Toumpas, or even....Nicholson *runs and hides*

I wouldn't mind seeing Salem play a full game in the forward pocket he has great goal sense looks a genuine goal kicking mid to me

Jamar s mark was huge in the context of the game, and his presence in general was really important.

How handy will he be if he gets back to his all Australian form?

So Demonland posters what about Terlich still worried about his Kicking Some here have no idea

Uhm yes, I for one am. He still needs to improve that side of his game, it doesn't happen over night and he had some poor kicks again last night. Don't let the green go to your head J.

Think he did alright yesterday though, better than the week before. Needs to clean his kicking up and he will be a gun

I'm watching the game again, as we speak (type) and the man crush on Dawes continues.

Leader, brute, competitive beast.

Also, Pedo is going alright.

I would make one change....Byrne's time is up.

Agreed - I have been calling for Byrnes to be dropped for a while but there really wasn't anyone to bring in.

I think we will see either one or no changes - no changes would be a big statement from Roo's. Would show he backs this group of players.

As much as I would love Roos to make that statement I would also like to see a few play AFL: Garland, Gawn, Riley, Kent, Toumpas, Strauss/Clisby,

We still have AFL quality players to come in but how many people can you drop after a game like that?

Roos did say Georgiou was tired after 7 rounds (big step up from SNAFL or whatever) - so that could be a change without emission (call it rest).

Outs:

Georgiou - rest

Byrnes - for the simple fact we have better players

Ins:

Garland - providing he shows form at casey

Riley/Kent/Toumpas - depending on VFL form

Tempting to also bring in Strauss/Clisby so Howe can go back to the forward - for a game where we expect to get decent i50's and now have 2 key forwards (Howe would now be the 3rd tall)

Jetta and Grimes both played their best games for the club I thought. Terlich was very good as well, sometimes his disposal lets him down but he rarely makes wrong decisions, his attack on the contest is great also.

What was wrong with Frawley last night?he had a shocker clearly our worst

Probably thinking of his new contract at the Hawks!!!

Mind is not on the job IMO.

just broken into quarters mate for ease of watching. but its much better to watch

Ok thats good - its amazing that you can't skip through the video on the AFL website (apart from skipping to goals - sometimes there are only 1-2 goals a quarter)

how good is it waking up today reading the papers about our win. Also for once in a while im watching game day and the footy show. Should be a very happy Roos tomorrow night on afl 360.

If you have an Ipad get the AFL app. Best $89 bucks I've spent in a long time. All games live and the replays broken down into quarters. I had to go out last night and was able to watch parts of the last quarter whilst I was having a shower. Missed nothing.

Think he did alright yesterday though, better than the week before. Needs to clean his kicking up and he will be a gun

I love watching how he goes about it, the older school head over it and goes type, I cringe when he actually gets it but again it is on the improve and great to see.

He'll downplay it. 'Encouraging, but a long way to go' etc.

That said, there's no one I love more in Australia than Paul Roos.

Sincere apologies to Henry, my one year old son.

For what it's worth, I would hope/expect that Henry also loves Paul Roos than he does me.

7 footy program just showed Frawls going in for a scan this morning on "possibly a toe he hurt in the 2nd possible a doubt for next weeks game".

If chip is out for next week I'd play watts at chf

Pedersen is genuinely in our best 22 now.

He was fantastic yesterday. The best gravedigger in the league.

JKH - how good is he?!

yep agree with that.

and we nearly blew it,is good for the team to understand calmness in tight situations.

PR.shut the game down and see who wins a dogfight,suits some of our players and certainly doesnt suit some oppo players.

thats why under his regime the gravediggers flourish.

Lets not get ahead of ourselves a Gutsy win by our Finger tips . I dont want to rain on the parade but still plenty of bad habits to get rid of

After last weeks Game I said the positive was we no longer capitulate.

Today's game proved that in Spades !

For now I am happy and ecstatic about the win and we all should be so . Lets just hope there are more before seasons end and I will dine out on each and everyone of them . But for now the change is happening lets enjoy the ride both the ups and downs in the knowledge that maybe we have finally turned the corner and seasons need no longer be like having teeth drawn!

I say let's get ahead of ourselves, way ahead of ourselves. What's it matter? Already pencilled us in as cents v bullies and Tiges.

If chip is out I expect it will be Garland in and Dunn forward.

You may be right brfe. Gee, Arland would come in underdone though.
