Have I just made the list!?

Wondered the same.

Bumper deal for Spargo? I think not haha, nevertheless you're right with the others. Also think Hibbo has another year in him.

T Mac's contract off the books would create possibilities..

Well?

Have you ever considered diagnosing yourself, Doc?

Luke Jackson has set a new career high disposal numbers, three games in a row:

Want to see him in the guts next week covering for Viney!

Suspended for 1 week

Think they'll begrudgingly play T-Mac in replace of Tomlinson as that'll allow them the easy way out to get Weid in. Then between T Mac and Petty for the key defender spot after we see McDonald there for a couple weeks.

Weid to play full back

6. Fristch 5. Kozzie 4. Jackson 3. Oliver 2. Salem 1. Rivers

Looked to move with confidence that I haven't seen from him before in that 3rd quarter

I think not rolling through Salem, Rivers or Pickett through the middle more is something we're not utilising. Even Jackson as a mid instead of ruck.

Jackson & Powell the only ones getting better each week. Neither have been nominated this year.

Think long term Rivers' best position may be as a midfielder. Hard as nails, skilful, composure, good overhead mark which few mids are. Perhaps Bowey to half back to bring River's into the rotation.

Harmes is the obvious one missing (whether he's any good anymore is another question). Moving Gus permanently to a wing has created this issue (I know he was inside a bit today but won't be back there in a hurry based off today's efforts by himself & Baker). Think we'll end up targeting a mid/fwd in the offseason who can be the 4th or 5th midfielder but still a damaging forward. Think probably in the Robbie Gray/Shai Bolton type mould.

IN: Sparrow, Weid, Chandler, Bowey OUT: Jones, Tomlinson, Melksham, Baker

Looked like Gawn & Petracca were in-game managed to me

Given he was named to play to begin with should hopefully indicate it was nothing on major concern

5 of 21 CBA's last week

Pies only received pick 24 & a 2nd rounder somewhere in the 30's for it too

I don't really understand the anti-Melk chat. Melk's upside is heaps better than Jones.

Terrible optics but ultimately the right call
