Changes for the Blues game?

Hopefully we got through unscathed.

Fire away with your changes, if any?

How bad was Chol. Only 3 possessions. Does he need a rest?


Out:
Butler
Chol

In:
Nank
Mac

Cotch another week of rest minimum.

Watched replay again
Butler needs to seek Emma Murray 9am Monday morning
Confidence is shot
Career over ??
Played 7 games this season , no where near the player he was
He brought his C Grade game last night

I'd actually drop Rioli for his BEllis type effort (step backwards = pulling out of a contest) but fortunately for him his tackle seconds later means no one is talking about it  >:(

I'm a Short fan but his confidence is shot too they did him favours bringing him straight back n AFL from that elbow . Needs to go back to the VFL

A week ago I would have said Choo over Soldo but the last 2 weeks have been Soldo's best

So.....

INS: Nankervis, MacIntosh, Naish

OUTS, Choo, Butler, BEllis


*** if Stack is fit, he comes straight back in, no Nish. But calfs are tricky, think they shpuld conservative

Soldo, Butler out
Nank, Stack in

Would like to see Ellis make way for McIntosh.

Soldo has played well enough to suggest he has a future with us as has Chol.

Yes. I know RCD has been poor but was better yesterday. Just saying he’d be no worse than Butler and give us another rotating mid forward for flexibility. Also will stretch their defence.... :shh

I worry about Short, I do like him but think he was terrible in the finals pressure last year.

Last night there were a couple of worrying signs inside D50.

Not sure he is best 22 to be honest

I have watched many VFL games this year and I don't believe RCD has been as poor as some think. He is a genuine inside player who is building a tank throughout the year. He cracks in extremely hard but doesn't yet have the aerobic conditioning to constantly spread on the outside. Alot to like me thinks :shh
