Would people consider this , would have said no to it cause he looks home at fullback Balta but Lynch out and with Dave there and Grimes lions big forward is Hippwood and the young ruck who pushes there doesn't scream out dangerous maybe flick the switch if need to or others suggest Broad in took Hippwood to cleaners last time and Balta moved.

I'd like to get broad in as 3rd tall.

Balta backup ruck/try forward maybe.

Hutchy said with Lynch out, he would play Andrews on Dusty (when forward) and Starcevich on Jack as Jack hasn't had that good a year.

Predicted teams: AFL finals week 1

September 29, 2020
Max Laughton
FOX SPORTS


TIGERS

B: David Astbury, Dylan Grimes, Noah Balta
HB: Liam Baker, Nick Vlastuin, Bachar Houli
C: Kamdyn McIntosh, Jack Graham, Marlion Pickett
HF: Dion Prestia, Kane Lambert, Jake Aarts
F: Mabior Chol, Jack Riewoldt, Dustin Martin
FOLL: Toby Nankervis, Shane Edwards, Trent Cotchin
I/C: Shai Bolton, Jason Castagna, Jayden Short, Josh Caddy

Analysis:
As always, the Tigers are spoiled for choice, and it makes tipping who’ll miss very difficult. Dion Prestia is expected to be fit and would probably replace Jack Ross, while Shai Bolton needs a spot too. Is Josh Caddy the unlucky one, or perhaps Jake Aarts or Daniel Rioli? Caddy played hard in the final round to make his case. It could also be Marlion Pickett, even though he and Kamdyn McIntosh have locked down those two wing spots. It’ll be tricky to squeeze Tom Lynch into this side once he’s fit, because the Tigers have gone with two rucks in every game since Round 5, but he was ruled out on Monday

Still in a quandary over who will replace Lynch.

From a structural point of view, it can only be Chol as he can ruck and play forward. However, his lack of competitiveness in the Adelaide game was so unacceptable he deserves to be dropped.

Caddy, on the hand, is mostly reliable and always gives a contest (Dimma loves him too). Yet he changes the team structure we've had all year if he plays forward and Jack is the sole genuine tall forward and Nank is our sole ruckman.

Got a feeling given we've got the double chance, Dimma will back Chol to respond after a bad game to preserve our team structure as that will be seen as most important. We always seem to back our team structure no matter what and no matter who the individual players in the team are. Dimma to give Mabs a pre-game rocket to stand up and compete in every contest. Either it will be the making of him and he gets to play in a flag as 2nd ruck even upon Lynch's return or Mabs won't be at Punt Rd in 2021.

Our structure can remain the same if Chol plays with 2 talls.Nsnk.or Chol rest up there with Jack.

I agree with that, georgies. Our structure would not remain if Chol doesn't play.

My quandary is that if Mabs dishes out another Adelaide MIA game on Friday night then we're effectively a man down again. If he plays, Mabs needs a pre-game rocket from Dimma that his AFL career is on the line or at least throw the carrot that there's a premiership medallion for the taking in 3 games time. Don't end up like CCJ regretting a missed opportunity (albeit the latter was due to off-field antics). We just need Mabs to realise he needs to turn up and compete.

Yep correct my only concern his intensity and desire.Hopefully rocket by Dimma wakes him up.Talent there just work rate and confidence.If you told me we had a shot after the siren who would it be I tell you Chol.All we need is a contest and urgency.I don't like him as a permanent forward gets lost the ruck and drifting role suits him.

Agree georgie. As you suggested Mabs needs to rotate with Nank between ruck and the forward line. He's better suited to the follower role and then pinch-hitting up forward.
