I would like to get Woey in but could be tough. I wouldn't be thrilled with no change but happiness at selection isn't currently possible. So after that I say no change.

Can you believe he's 20 years old? Cool as a cucumber, I love having this guy on our team.

I don't know. Going to bed. Go Dees.

Why do so many people think that the answer lies with developing talls yet to play a game yet? BTW if you thought Petty was bodied off it a lot tonight then Jefferson would have been suplexed from pillar to post. I don't know what Fullerton stands for but if they didn't select him tonight it tells you everything you need to know. I also don't know what we'll do next week for Jackson and Darcy and I reserve the right to not know. The answer probably isn't Petty but it's getting late and I'm tired.

I did not think the experiment worked and I've said that a few times in this thread. The problem is that people with your thinking are happy to demand sweeping changes but never actually come up with any good ones themselves. So if Petty, a premiership player is worse than a VFL player and shouldn't be in the 22. Who should be in? What's the answer?

Rough. His game wasn't great but he was basically a sparky being asked to do a plumber's job. Still a required player unless someone better is willing to reach for the brass ring.

St Kilda are rubbish

Cannot wait!

That's our coach right there. No system is faultless 100% of the time, and as long as we put the effort forward we'll be in most games.

17 pressure acts and if I had to guess they were mostly on the higher scale of pressure act. A good game from Koz and another reason why we won.

"Don't kick sideways the goals are that way!"

I understand the selection and Petty probably did his best to do what was asked of him. But he's not a ruckman bootlace and it's not a solution going forward. Petty's 'ruck craft' especially at boundary throw-ins was very hard to watch at times. Gave his best but it did not work. JVR showed much more in the way of agility and body on body stuff. Draper had 9 possessions in the first quarter while against Petty and maybe 10 for the rest of the game after that. Without JVR we don't win this game, period. When he went in there we won the clearances 19-11 and controlled the important part of the game. Annoyed that I've already done my votes because I'd definitely have him in there if doing them now.

Just run with Dirk, the cool kids are doing it.

I'll take our Demon spirit over being high off the jet fumes over the Hangar any day.

"Man up!" "Just kick the bloody thing!"

Some of the best posters here are the ones who never post..

I heard it. The biggest footy chumps are the ones that still call up talk back radio, way worse than here. After the Geelong game a guy who sounded in his 30s or 40s called up to give JVR a massive plug and then in the next sentence said he had no idea why people boo him at games..

One of his very best in a while. That was 21 level Lingers.

Just a shout out to the DL faithful in this thread. A lot of good moods and happy supporters. Very few moodkillers being negative or grandstanders demanding that people apologise to someone who 'proved them wrong' tonight. Good job DL, pats on the back!

I tipped us so that counts as having faith

McVee: One on one gun. Bossed whoever he was on tonight

A gutsy win. So proud

I don't care if we don't play finals, fixing up that mob is worth the membership price alone.
