Love the overreaction when we drop a game. We didn’t lose because all of a sudden our structure doesn’t work, we lost because the eagles were the better team.

correct. I must be one of very few who doesnt give a flying f... about this loss. Fast forward to dreamtime against the cheats and thats another story.

Except the likes of Moore, Chol & Garthwaite have been consistently performing quite well in the VFL this year whereas Vickery & Griffiths used to be called up on the back of doing stuff all....oh and unlike Sidedshow Bob & Balsawood Benny these blokes actually chase & lay the odd tackle and even take contested marks & crash packs every now & then...........:shh

Don’t know why you’ve mentioned garthwaite, our defence has 4-5 players who can play tall and have all been playing well this season, was more of a failure as a group rather than any individual performance against the eagles.

As for Moore and Chol, would not be against giving them a run I just don’t all of a sudden think we necessarily need another kpf based on the one loss. We got absolutely pantsed by both Adelaide and worse yet st kilda last year and we all know how that ended.

I think Dimma and co. won't alter from our usual forward set-up and will try to avoid a large number of changes based on one loss (unless it's forced due to injury/soreness).

In: Higgins, Stengle
Out: Butler, Lloyd

I reckon we'll try Moore, Chol or Soldo at some stage to see how it works, but I'm not sure that the Saints are the team to try it against. They won't have ruck dominance and their backline with Carlisle/Brown can be exposed with speed and pressure. Plus if they get their game going, they can be a good quick running side through the middle.

Agree Foo. The Saints won't have Brown this week either so there's not really a match-up to play a 2nd tall forward.
