Is it confidence or stubbornness? - not sure

A shock indeed

No harmes, no foul.

Goodwin has condidence in the team. They should of won last week.

He looked furious at the post game presser.

He and the players know what is expected of them Saturday night 

[Gouga 512]

Sigh. This is our 22 (23 if you include harmes) for the year i think...

Bad news for those of us who want to see chandler, bowey, laurie, jvr...

 

[Diamond_Jim 12,017]

A bit disappointing..

I don't see this side as being one to go deep into the Finals

On paper it's our easiest game

Oh well

[Nicko 1,271]

I agree - a tad shocked to see no changes 

would’ve thought harmes was a shoe in….probs still comes in if cripps’ appeal of the appeal wins

I don't have any major issues with 'no change', we didn't lose last week because the team isn't right (as such), we lost because we missed a few we should have slotted (and probably would have most other days). 13-11 is not a terrible day at the office. And the Pies were having a day in front of goal they likely can't replicate, and got the rub of a few frees they shouldn't have. I will add, I'd have liked to see Harmes get a game, maybe at the expense of Jordon who has not looked right, but I guess the faith is being shown in Jordon and the likes of ANB getting the job done. 

I reckon the boys now have additional fire in the belly from the loss to the Pies, and will look to atone bigtime against Carlton. 

On the topic of JVR, what's the point of bringing in someone underdeveloped, who will most likely suffer from the same issues plaguing most forwards in our team - poor delivery/bombs i50 etc. I don't think many forwards would survive with our current approach. If we work on our delivery, we might just find Brown, Fritter and the rest in better positions to score (aside from Gawn - his misses have generally had little to do with delivery). JVR would almost be set up to fail, and there'd be a loud contingent of people calling for his premature exit. Nah, let's get him right, but specially our delivery and approach.

We've got this. Pound for pound, we demolish the Blues. 

Let's just get it done, then tear the Lions a new one.

Well it seems the one tall forward set up ( with Max dropping in) is considered viable for September!

I don't like it but .................... Go Dees !!!!!

Does that mean naked lap around the G?

Will look out for Peter Hichener’s report of the arrest of “binman” pre game at the G.

307 posts ,13 pages and a whole lot mind space and time put into the whole changes thread. Feels a bit of a waste 😜

It's just poor lighting is all

[MrFreeze 1,540]

Don't mind

We are all very frustrated about last week but we lost by 8 points to a team on a 10 game streak. Let's back em in to again and get it done right this time.

Any excuse.

[roy11 3,030]

Not that outrageous I guess, should have won last week - this lot should get the job done this week.

Had a look at the facebook comments, saw negative comments about the following being named

Hunt, JJ, Pig, Milkshake, Brown, Nibbler, ANB, Spargo. 

People are angry, it has been too long since our last flag!
