Spencer will play, ahead of Pedo and they are probably tossing up between Pencil and Weed at this stage, and if they could play both they probably would. Joel Smith has been the best performed third tall and he adds another element with his manic tackling and high leap, which will help deny StKildas tall forwards. Kent and Hibberd are 50/50 but if fully fit will play. Garlett and Jetta will play. Neal Bullen probably the unlucky one again Wagner won't play Not sure about Bugg, seems to be an important part of the team as always brings 100% intensity, and seems to find a goal or two.

Pettacca is a real enigma ,all the talent in the world but finds it hard to find the footy at times

Where's Melksham been?

Tommy Mac will never ever be Elite, disposal just shocking, absolute lug head.

Surprise surprise we've played like shite and only 11 points down, bit of luck and we'd be in front

West Coast just the better team, really showing up our deficiencies, we are very panicky under pressure

It has to be said the umpires have been shocking

Really missing Jetta and Garlett

It's our skills under pressure that are so poor

We are playing poorly and only 8 points behind at half time against a very good side at their fortress out west, pretty positive I'd say.

I said in an earlier JLT post that Spencer would play round one, a lot disagreed with me, but I'm sticking by it.

Tommy Mac is a star

Our tall backs will be our Achilles heel this season

Looks like Melbourne of old with some of our decision making

Macdonald bros really poor

I haven't heard it all the time. Did you see that cracker of a goal he kicked from the boundary in the first JLT?

Saints do look good though, they have the best bunch of marking talls in the league and jack Steven is on fire in the middle, we will need to be in our mettle to beat them, and must win the stoppages and midfield battle.

Best post I've read in a long time, completely cracked me up ?

The final missing piece in our midfield

Going to be hard to squeeze Melksham, Hibberd, Jetta, Hunt ,Vince and Lewis in that backline. The Mac brothers and say Frost or Smith. Vince and Lewis in the mid rotations still leaves four so one will have to miss out

Great weekend of sport, The Dees girls and guys and the Aussies in India??

Petracca outstanding

Joel Smith looks the goods, good in the air and great tackler

Im calling it now. Spencer and Weideman as lock ins for round one. Weed works so hard and is very smart, a perfect foil for Hoges. Spencer is in good form and allows Gawn more time in the forward line. Both make us a better side, much more balanced and dangerous.

This is all over a player missing a practice match right? ?
