Agree. Similarly - I'd very much like to see our forwards throw their weight around - in particular Battle and Kent. Wouldn't at all be unhappy if Battle nails JJ with a knee to the kidneys in an early marking contest and similarly, Kent wraps up Caleb in huge bone-crunching tackle. In some ways - the Dogs are like us - not an overly aggressive team.
I'd love our boys to focus on the footy first but take our chances to hit and hurt hard as and when they inevitably present. I'd be very surprised if the Dogs haven't got a Billings/Hill in the gun.
Play the ball and outscore them. We can’t afford to be four goals down early because we’ve lost focus on the main game.
That said, if they take out one of our guys we should take out two of theirs ... and take great satisfaction in doing it. Payback double.

This will be a massive test for our on field leadership. Players like Billing's will need to be up to the task, there's no room for bruise free footy in finals.

It will be Billings they will target you'd think. Hill has 3 games of premiership experience and focusing that type of strategy on a player like Hill could be a waste of their energy. But I agree, I reckon they will highlight Billing's down hill skier credentials and say if he is getting clean ball then the Saints are probably on top.

Good to see ya up and about so early. You do realise the game isn't until Saturday so don't overcook yourelf before then.

I'm guessing Billings will be targeted because his record against the team that invented downhill skiing is very good.
It is one sided players and those with poor skills in less pressurised games that I have concerns with, they will be exposed and ultimately hurt how we want to play our finals' football.
