Fox Footy were saying just before that Cody Weightman could potentially play because he was subbed due to a head knock but not ruled as concussion? Did anyone see that?

And then there was 4.. Destiny is in our hands now.. Let's go Dees.

That's disgusting.

29 to 18 free kicks dogs way. Absolutely woeful performance by the umpires. Game is in damage control.

Hope so. Could almost say the Cats loss to us in the last round could also fuel them which worries me more.

Careful.........

More chance they'd move McDonald back if something catastrophic happened to both Lever and May this week....

It was 2 weeks reduced to 1 week. Dangerfield plays the following week. Again, what's the difference?

Yeah initial reaction was I'm pretty sure you can't do that lol

Not a bad suggestion actually re Rivers/Rohan match up. Those line ups are pretty much what I'd go with also.

That was Jake Niall

No I know that, Ratugolea did nothing last night except crash a few packs and Chris Scott was happy with his game. They'll try and put the Ratugolea match up on Lever as a negating role and expose him on on one if they can. That's why I think they'll try and move Petty on to him, again this is freeing up Lever in not taking a tall. I think Smith suits Cameron. He'll match him in the air and on ground level. If he plays a full lockdown on Cameron then that'll certainly help our chances. But Rohan hasnt exactly done anything the past month and a bit. He's lucky to be in the team especially after his woeful 1st final performance. He doesn't worry me. Rohan likes to play higher up as well which Lever will just sit back and play his game. In fact I think last time Lever was at times matched up on Gryan Miers as well?

I reckon this changes though with the extra tall they have. I wouldn't be surprised if it's Smith who take Cameron (remember he did do the job on him last year) and Lever takes Rohan Lever doesn't exactly play on a tall, he plays on a medium to small forward because this allows him to play to his strengths as a intercept defender. This is why Petty has taken the 2nd best tall forward. Don't be surprised if its: May - Hawkins Smith - Cameron Petty - Ratugolea Lever - Rohan.

It's getting tiresome to be honest. Anyway. Some that I saw last night regarding Selwood. Can someone please explain to me what the difference is? Selwood gave away the free kick just like Greene. This surely has to be looked at? Can't just have a scapegoat in Greene and not have consistency with Selwood.

This doesn't even make sense? And thanks for the feedback. Don't understand why personal jabs come into it when discussing football on here.

I'll try and explain in simple terms. This was Geelongs forward 6 last night. Besides Miers, all 5 players are well over 187cm tall plus. They have Brad Close who comes in and plays a high half forward. Salem and Rivers will take Close and Miers. Where does that leave Bowey? Who does he take? Last time they didn't have Ratugolea and instead had Dahlhaus, so there was a match up there. Hibberd or Hunt are my potential ins.

My favourite one was when Dangerfield threw it out of the back of the pack and James Brayshaw called it a party trick.

I could cop a loss if it was against the Giants. I simply cannot cop this against Geelong. Out of all teams, I can't just fathom the though of losing to Geelong and letting it eat inside of me for 6 months.

The game will be won through the midfield and also down back. Yes they have some ageing and banged stars in Selwood, Duncan and Dangerfield, but don't underestimate them to lift in a game like this. Geelong did what they had to last night, win and get through the game with minimal injuries. Parfit is a loss for them, but they could bring in Shaun Higgins or Sam Simpson as a replacement.

Of course I do.. But they'll leave him into to try and keep Lever accountable.

Definitely a huge worry game for me. Last time they didn't have Touhy, Duncan and Rata. Joel Smith will stay now especially Big sav down there. Bowey for me is still the vulnerable one down back. I said Hibbo last week but if Jayden Hunt is ready then I'd bring him to give us some speed out of the back half. Our defence and mids have to be really switched on from get go.

Playing Geelong worries me. Last time they didn't have Touhey and Duncan and both have been solid so far for them.

I'm tipping the Giants. I reckon the game will be best won in the midfield battle.

If Nadia Bartel can have a few friends over last Thursday nigh for a couple of nose beer zingers, then I'm pretty sure you'll all be fine to watch GF with a couple of family and friends 👍

Incredibly hard. Once again a lot of the recruiting will once again go off footage that's been recorded throughout games and also limited form this year as well.
