Would have to look at bringing in Webberly for Maric, maybe Gus for Vicks or Miller and either give White another go or swap him for McGuane.

I would like to see Griff get a go to but I just can't see us making too many changes.

Webberly is not AFL standard period.

I'm not chuck but hopefully I am allowed to offer an opinion  ;D

To be honest I don't think we can cover them or counter them. they are going to win the majority of hitouts that's a fact.

What I reckon can do and should do is plan our clearance work around their tap work, in other words we "rove" to their hitouts not just at centre bounces but a round the ground. We control; the stoppages and clearances, take advantage of their work and win those clearances.

Top teams do it all the time, about time we thought like a top team, use an opposition strength to our advantage  :thumbsup

Yep thats fine WP, but every time we play them this same call is made, we rove to their tap work and it never bloody happens. Not only that but we then have no one to go with them then and they either put on a show around the ground or kick a bag each....one drops back in defence etc...someone has to stand up here!!

Bloody hell, Vickery played most of his football against Nat and beat him.....many moons ago it seems now. :banghead

Surely we need to try something else.
