Out: Mansell, Aarts, Caddy
In: KMac, Rioli, Chol/CCJ.

Gotta keep Martyn unless they wanna bite the bullet on RCD. Is Ralphsmith fit? Maybe worth a try.

Not sure why we went with Aarts over Rioli tonight. The last two games Aarts had 2 shots at goal and 2 tackles, Rioli had 6 shots and 7 tackles. Both are frustrating at the moment admittedly.

We got smashed in the 1st half at centre bounces - never thought I'd say these words but we are missing Soldo to give us a different look in there. Nank is great around the ground but not working at centre bounce at the moment.

Ralph suspended.

We have missed Soldo since he got injured. He's a better tap and it frees up Nank to drop into the hole.

Dimma post-game said Ralphsmith will be available for selection next week. Would've played last night if he hadn't been suspended.
 
Kmac may also be available as his 12th day post-concussion is on the day of the game. Dimma said we'll see how that pans out.

Lynch is on target to be as big a trading mistake as Tom Boyd. Always caught behind and drops too many marks

Weve won 2 premierships since we got him.

And we most certainly don’t win 2019 without him.

Rioli obviously.....Bolton, Pickett & even Baker can all rotate through and Lambert's still there...have to take from somewhere to bring in a second ruck... :shh

Would say he has already paid us back

Outs: Aarts, Broad, Mansell
In D Rioli, Coleman Jones, McIntosh.

Hate to drop Broady but we need a 2nd ruckman.

He's not really ready yet but tempted to play Maurice jnr as Dan and Aarts have gone missing so far this season (George was poor on the weekend but has been good in previous games). We need more spark from our small forwards both at the fall of the ball as well as chasing opposition defenders and applying forward pressure. We've gone from having a surplus of quick small forwards that we had to let some go to now hoping the ones we still have left will find some form very soon.

Out: Martyn, Aarts
In: Kmac, M.Rioli jnr

I wouldn't bring back Caddy in at the quicker Docklands against a Saints side whose main weapon is their run.

We can forget about MRJ for a while as he haven't got the fitness required yet for AFL.
Daniel needs to find the hunger and come back. Seems he had a good game on the weekend.
