Late Changes?
Have a gut feeling that Baker may come in as a late change (similar to the Game against Cats, where he went out). Do not know whom he will replace though.
Also Mitch Haan may come in for Dale Morris. Will be too risky playing Morris against Kosi & Roey.

In for Dempster is what I've heard.nobhead wrote:do you know this for a fact shakey .or you hoping he plays and who goes out for him.cos i reckon its risky playing him in a cut throat final seeing he will be massively underdone.Bernard Shakey wrote:Bakes will play.
Old enough to repaint, but young enough to sell
What about for Joey? At least you are due to get one right. If you keep guessing and admit it is a guess, one day you will be right.Bernard Shakey wrote:In for Dempster is what I've heard.nobhead wrote:do you know this for a fact shakey .or you hoping he plays and who goes out for him.cos i reckon its risky playing him in a cut throat final seeing he will be massively underdone.Bernard Shakey wrote:Bakes will play.

To be honest and this is my opinion I don't think Bakes will play. I reckon he will miss this week with the possibility of coming in if we play Geelong in GF. if we win a premiership and he gets weeks for doing something to Stevey J, he will probably retire a happy man.
With the exception of ball from last year and Raph Clark, who else will not be in the side from last years GF.

Ahh King yes. I believe we have a good replacement with big McCevoy, Raph's replacement is probably Dempster or possible Baker but Dempster was in last years GF, so Peake could be the inclusion. Then we have Eddy for Ball.shmic_s wrote:King, Ball, Raph...DWOODROW wrote:With the exception of ball from last year and Raph Clark, who else will not be in the side from last years GF.
On these changes do we have the manpower to win this year???
As Ross has said before it is about structure, but everyone seems to be saying it is one on one football in finals.
Should be interesting.

Morris out for them.
No change for us.

On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'

It's all about matchups and structures.spert wrote:Dempster played a good game against the Cats and I doubt if Lyon will drop him to pick a player to play in a final, who has not played for 9 weeks or so, otherwise unless someone is injured I reckon no change.

I doubt Bakes will retire, he only signed a new contract a couple of months back.DWOODROW wrote:To be honest and this is my opinion I don't think Bakes will play.

Yippee! Win-win. Morris will be underdone, and Hahn has been a liability.mohannair wrote:Also Mitch Haan may come in for Dale Morris. Will be too risky playing Morris against Kosi & Roey.

I agree with some of the other posters. This would be a perfect time to bring Bakes back into the side. The game against the Cats would have been too much of a gamble, this however...well......(even though I believe it's against the grain of RL in doing such a thing). I'm hoping we see him back!
When they created LENNY HAYES (in the shadow of Harvs) they forgot to break the mold (again)- hence the Supremely Incredible Jack Steven!!
then we're too tall in defence and blake or dawson goes out.Bernard Shakey wrote:It's all about matchups and structures.spert wrote:Dempster played a good game against the Cats and I doubt if Lyon will drop him to pick a player to play in a final, who has not played for 9 weeks or so, otherwise unless someone is injured I reckon no change.
i think it's more about continuity so there'll be no change.

Just waiting to see the first long kick into our fwd line and see Morris being crunched in the back by a flying Kosi. Give the back a real test! If he can stand a couple of these crunches then they may have made the right call on his back being right.
