I would take an undersized Miles who has more grunt than Batchelor any day.

I want to give Ellis one more chance. Lennon has to come in for either Butler or Castagna as both went missing today

Castagna often bites off more than he can chew, decision making and kicking is below afl. I'd prefer to keep butler over the two. Bring in Bolton.

I'd give lloyd a game ahead of Lennon. One guy works his arse off for the club the other expects to get a game without working his arse off.

The club that keeps giving.

We have found common ground.

The three small forwards are applying forward pressure but they are not scoring enough. Think we need to drop one and give Lennon a go or maybe Lloyd. They at least can take a mark. Elton is not the answer but not sure if we have any choice on the CHF  spot atm. Batch did very little.

Out. Batch, Castanga, Lambert.
In Vlaston, Lennon, Prestia.

Vlastuin was at a pre- match and confirmed he won't be back until after the bye

So line through him

Prestia is a certain starter

Out
Batchelor - leg injury
Castagna - needs a rest and needs to clean up his skills
C. Ellis - go back and learn to play inside mid and return when ready to go.
Markov - needs to find his best position. I think he should be playing B. Ellis position on the HDF.
Elton - not doing enough

In
Prestia
Lloyd
Miles
Menadue
Soldo? Chol? We don't have a clear second tall forward option. Elton might need to continue...

We play more than one short mate, but you are 100% right, he was putrid today.
I'd still stick with him though.
Plenty to go before him imo.
