Thanks for the tips, just got some off gumtree
I went to every final we played in 2012 so let’s hope it’s a good omenHe ate more cheese, than time allowedComment

Goal Sneak, I agree with Molly dooker. Clarke is a bruise free player. To his credit he has absolutely maximized what he has and has a solid role in the team. Ronke, Wicks and Campbell all have way more upside, but none have been able to really harness their talents like Clarke. Ronke is a wonderful crumbing forward with an electric ability to sneak goals. Wicks when he is fully in form can do everything clarke does but also has an ability to be electric and is a hard competitor, Campbell is just elite, silky smooth and always has time. I imagine if any of those three could sort themselves out they would be in the team above clarke any day. But again, full credit to clarke. He has earnt his spot. I do worry though in the tough physical environment of finals whether he can stand up. We saw Sinclair run off him pretty easily last week. Opposition teams will now have studied his tagging approach and will be adjusting.Comment

I just don't see that class you speak of in Wicks, he's tough he puts pressure on but to me he resembles an energiser battery that could do with a little more propping and changing direction, just a single step the other way and just taking a little more time and giving himself more time in order to make the right dish off choices .Comment

what does Gus have to do to be considered ? if its about age that is crap , have we forgotten what Chad and Errol were doing in their 2nd , 3rd games.?
He has got the talent and he will work hard , that is what you need in finals .Comment

He probably can't do much more and wouldn't let us down. I'm just unsure who he would replace from a team that has won 7 straight.Comment

oh i can think of a few, but at worst whats wrong with sub ? Everyone talks about the sub and its dud after dud getting thrown up and no one talks about the ones who have the TALENT , Joeys done his hammy so next best is Gus , he is a future star , we need talent in finalsComment

I think most would be fine with Gus being picked as sub. He's showing plenty. I've made the comment that he needs a bit of time to develop a bigger tank but I now think he's got that ticked off. Who are the players you think he should replace? If you want him in the mids then I don't think there's anyone who deserves to lose their spot at this stage.Comment

I wouldn't be unhappy if he was the sub, likewise I'd be comfortable enough with Ronke or Campbell being given the guernsey either. All well in front of Wicks for the role in my opinion.
