    Mathews in the run on side.
    McVeigh in the run on side.
    Bevan on the extended bench.
    After such a dynamic preseason from them all.
    Who does Roos possibly think Benny can match up on?????? Milne, Schnieder, Montanya.
    Reiwolt perhaps.
    As usual, there'll be nowhere to hide him, and one of our other defenders will have to compromise their game to cover for him.
    Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it's time to pause and reflect... MT

            My expectation is that Mathews will be in the team that is announced this evening, and to be fair, the Saints are one team where there are a number of suitable match-ups. The Saints have a core of ball-winning mids who aren't too quick but can get their hands on the ball. Limit the output of one or two of them, and you're someway towards getting control of the midfield (subject to winning the darned thing yourselves).

            Kirk will probably take Hayes, but Harvey, Ball and Dal Santo are possible opponents for Mathews, especially if Ablett isn't fit.

                I dream of the day when the opposition is focussed on how to match up on our midfielders who concentrate on getting the ball, instead of vice versa!

                    This was a point made by a number of commentators on tThe Footy Show last night, that St Kilda have possibly the slowest midfield in the competition.

                        Matthews had a reasonable game against Dal Santo last meeting.

                        Some chastised him on here for focusing on him, but he did a good job...

                                No they were talking about it in respect to playing us at TelstraDome.

                                        groan.

                                        If he gets himself fit, I'm sure he has a few more years left in him.

                                            maybe slow leg speed, but they do have quick skills.

                                                If he brings his preseason form with him, then he'll be terrible....as usual.

                                                        I'm really keen to see the squad that is named, obviously depends on the outs but I'm suprised we are bringing in all 3 munchkins.
                                                        I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
                                                        We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time
