Who's out for Finals Charge?

[BSA5]

In my opinion, the best options to be dropped are Ablett, and I hate to say it, Crouch. After a great first game back and a very useful second game, he hasn't been too flash. I reckon he has another year in him, but we should keep as many young players in the team as possible for the finals series.

Of course, if anybody goes out with suspension, Crouch deserves to stick around.

Crouch will tag Harvey, no chance of him being dropped.

Didnt Crouch shut out Luke Power ?

Crouch is one of the reasons we're starting to turn it around in 2008.

[JudesaGun]

Jude and Monty are sure to miss... so I see the changes as being:

Ins
Goodes, O'Keefe, Brabazon

Outs
Bolton, Buchanan, Ablett

Unfortunately we need LRT to play on Hale, otherwise I'd leave him out too...

[gloveski]

I'm Sure Ablett done his hammy may be wrong but watch this space

Im a firm believer in if something works y change it. IMO playfair and Mol will not be fit enough to play a final as we saw with StKilda in 05 it just doesnt work. Rok imo hasnt been crash hot of late but has finals exp and Goodes will return. On the footy show this morning they said Amon would most likely be sfe as the ball was in the contest or within the 10mtr mark it has to be to be considered in play. Jude however they reckon is in strife and will miss this week. So providing Jude goes we need to drop 1? Correct? Well Jude is a midfielder so Goodes would prob nearly straight swap with him assuming he goes. Then you have Rok...... Do you think a Noggy/Crouch are going to get dropped for a player like Rok??
I really dunno

Don't know if it will come down to that choice or not, but you've got to be kidding if you really don't know the answer.

I actually meant o dont know who will come in or out not i dont know if Rok will come in for noggy/crouch but thanks for shootn me down!

I think the point was that if O'Keefe is fit he's a dead set certainty... he'll be an All Australia, of course he's in our best 22.

Just a few points to throw into the mix. Last night at the aftermatch Roos and Horse singled out LRT and Luke for commendation. LRT did "one of the best jobs of containing Brown this year" and "NOG is a vital defensive part of our midfield - it doesn't work without him".

[Bear]

Why?

He was not one of our worst last night. Not even close actually.

Ablett, LRT and Crouch should be thr first one's on the chopping block.

When his body stands up, like the present, Crouch is our most reliable small run-with player. His job wasn't to get possessions it was to shut down Luke Power. He'll probably get Harvey next week.

Grundy continues to offer very little and has not claimed any position/role as his own. Didn't make obvious clangers last night, but had little impact. His height is irrelevant. Lacks pace and endurance as well.

LRT plays a role in the structure of the backline, however unconvincingly at times.

Agreed Ablett is in the gun.

Buchanan is a moron who will get weeks for his stupidity. No great loss.

You obviously look for differenet things to me.
