Ross has managed to name a team and emergencies, that gives Mick absolutely no idea.
Credit due.

But if McEvoy dips out, well I'm devastated for him
"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. 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!'

Also Kos can ruck
Also Stanley being spruked up to run in the sprint yet named reserve.
More tricks from the boss yet i reckon

Gwilt will play at half back, Blake will ruck against Brown. They will try and use blakes motor and run Brown off his feet. If McEvoy had played we may have won the tap outs but he would have been badly exposed once the ball hit the turf. Brown has played like a midfielder. If Brown does go forward, Blake will just go with him

Im seriously tipping Blake to be the back up Ruckman and not Kosi. They will be happy going Gards v Jolly, and Blake v Brown, with Kosi staying put.
If Kosi goes into ruck and leaves Nick alone, Nick will be double teamed by Reid/Maxwell and Presti.
Think about it.... the last few weeks Blake had started on the bench, purely because there isn't a match up for him in the backline.

And Kosi wins.plugger66 wrote:No way he will play on Roo. He is a great match up for Kosi.3rd generation saint wrote:Actually them picking Presti what's his name is a win for us.
Hasn't played for weeks and will be run ragged by Roo.
Roo has a good record against this mob.
Surely Baker in for the extra mid rotation?

Let's not forget that they have also been building up Gardiners fitness in recent months, he is peaking right now, and should be able to run with Jolly.Unforgiven wrote:Im seriously tipping Blake to be the back up Ruckman and not Kosi.

Wow, just can't believe it.
Ben being the hard luck story would be awful though

I think no funny buggers. As I see it at the moment he's just looked at the match ups and gone we need an extra small and we'll match your part time ruckman with a more athletic part timer of our own.
But GF team selections do have a way of changing...

i can smell a repeat of that game against the hawkers at the dome with blakeys burst in the ruck
thatd be good
Our 2 genuine ruckman is/was a major point of difference in combating the Pies that the Cats and Dogs both do NOT have...
BigMac has taken huge steps the past 2 months, and his contested marking, reading of the play, and quick thinking has been improving by the week, and begining to really become a weapon...
Disgusted if the team remains as selected... With or without Bakes, this unbalances our whole structure...

To be fair, we didn't win last time against them though, our structure didn't hold up.Sobraz wrote:Our 2 genuine ruckman is/was a major point of difference in combating the Pies that the Cats and Dogs both do NOT have...

Geelong stuck to theirs after losing to the Pies in Rd 19, and we all know what happened.
I am sad for whoever misses, but I want the selected side to be Collingwood specific.
