Let's not "gift games" to anyone. On the other hand give him [BL16] games, but only if he deserves it.

I don’t think he would be getting gifted games considering he’s always one of the best in the vfl

Seriously, who are we going to put on NAS?

Langdon got the job done against Daicos and would seem the only viable choice

I don't. Aside from 2 goals he has been disappointing both weeks. Culley they will want in the side asap and he has been able to run and participate in drills without contact. Toss up between Laurie and Kolt for last spot and if Culley not there Kolt plays.

I'm still holding my Kolt shares - for now.

Hes got to get super fit and strong, the latter because he's a power player.

And he really needto lock into a position. I'm not convinced he'll make ir as a defender, and atm he's not likely to play mid.

Meaning hia bedt shot is a half forward who gets up and down the ground, gets one or two goals a game an kick the sort of goal he did on Friday - be a spor up option neat the arc and convert from 50.

Wherever he plays

I have always noticed that when two corridor teams play each other scores are often low due to turnovers and crowding of the corridor.

Under Goodwin we remained a boundary team. It will be interesting to see if under the new coach we become a diagonal team a la Collingwood or a corridor team such as Adelaide.

Diagonal.

There seems to be a bit of a naritive that this is St Kilda's game to loose.

I don't buy it.

We were like what 40 points up at 3/4 time in our last outing against them, with a team that wasn't playing as cohesively as we look to be at the moment. If we get in that position against them again, they aren't coming back from it.

Diagonal.

Give wonderboy Chandler the gig! Why not??

Sharp has the tank and speed to go with Nas all day, but not the IQ. He'll get caught out. Sparrow similar minus the pace.

It probably decides the game ...I do not expect Koz to be able to get away from Windhager.

I agree with the poster who suggested we be the first to go after Nas physically. Would love it if we got totally unsociable on him!!! Windhager does it to Kozzie....

Jiath? Can he be physical?

CJ doesn't strike me as a strong defensive 1-on-1 type. I would love to be proven wrong though!

NAS is more roaming so seems a task less about defensive positioning and more about blanketing. Someone mentioned Langdon, I think for that reason. But I feel like CJ could add the physical edge.

Congrats to May on a fantastic career.

I thought Langdon played on Wanganeen-Milera last time and got a bath.

I don't think anyone played well enough in the VFL to be considered.

I think Culley has to play at least 1 VFL game before being considered.

I think Steele would know Wanganeen-Milera's game inside out. I'd consider him to do the job on Wanganeen-Milera in the middle and Turner to go on him when he goes forward.

The only change I would make to my side is Sharp to emergency and Melksham out.

Is Chandler Pickett's new Spargo?
