AFL site says we got through unscathed  :pray.

Lynch possibly available. Lambert was the unused sub tonight.

Fire away with your changes?

Agree with this.

Tarrant had his best game for the club tonight
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Was good in the last qtr. Up to 3 qtr time he was fumbling everything, not taking marks and missing kicks/handballs left right and centre.

I thought people were being harsh on him with all the criticism but now rekn he should only play when we have injuries/suspensions and even then I’d like to see Miller get more chances.

No one apart from Miller deserves a game from the VFL and we have key defence covered for now

We won hit outs 41-18 tonight, which translated into -7 at clearances, -4 on centre clearance and -3 on stoppage clearances. So what's the point of two ruckmen when dominance in hit outs means we lose clearance overall by 17?

Out: Soldo, Ralphsmith

Would like to see em continue to play Balta fwd and second ruck. Would like to see Miller come in as the second big kpd
Of course Lynch to come back as well.

Carlton have the option to play Pittonet and DeKoning as the second ruck/fwd.
That would mean DeKoning McKay and Curnow playing fwd which will be a challenge.

The real problem is the big mids that always seem to get us and they have plenty in
Cripps, Kennedy Hewett, Carroll with Walsh and Cerra.

Contested ball and Clearances are again going to be a problem for us id say.
The smallest is Walsh at 184cm.

agree
Miller is gonna be ok has some very good traits and his foot skills are excellent from all I’ve seen of him. He is currently our best player in the VFL team but our mids aren’t stopping the ball from coming in numerous times consecutively but he has stood tall from all the games I’ve seen.

I would be playing him ahead of Tarrant.

Balta shouldn’t be playing forward at all should only be defence. We need a settled defensive six that know each other’s thoughts and we shouldn’t change it for the rest of the season.
The club that keeps giving.

Agreed. We don't have the luxury of faffing around with experiments. We're more like the 2021 side where the wheels could fall off than the 2019-2020 sides that dominated.

Balta Grimes Gibcus
Vlastuin Broad Rioli

Lock that in and let them get primed for finals. If it means we have a problem to solve in the forward line then we can look at that in isolation. Don't rob Peter to pay Paul.
