I honestly don't think that at this stage Ross knows whether Bakes will play, and if he does, who he'll replace.


Good luck to us trying to work it out. :?

Was hoping Jack Stevens could be a chance as well..was brilliant in the Geelong win earlier in the year..reckon either Dal or Gram may miss allowing Bakes in.

I reckon Bakes plays and Mini is the unlucky one with Dempster to go forward and make Maxwell accountable.

I doubt it. If Maxwell's loose, then chances are so is either Fisher, Goddard or Gilbert.

I don't think Bakes plays unless one of Dal or Gram can't get up. Even then, we may opt for someone else. I think Bakes will miss.

If he plays though, the unluckiest person will be his opponent.

Does Bakes still have the pace to catch a streaming Coll forward ? - coz we need that - although we lose from his uncompromising style if we do not play him. Double edged sword!


This is a team game and there is no room for individuals who think they are above walking through the fire.

+1. Mini hardly touches the ball these days, so I'd rather have Dempster forward, for either Maxwell, or Harry O and Bakes back.

Mini doesn't seem to be having the impact in the forward line this season- much less direct in his play. I still have doubts over the fitness of NDS and Gram and I think Baker will get a spot..if not I will run down the middle of Bourke St with my clothes on.

Only player (ignoring injury) that may drop out IMO would be Mini.

However Baker would seem unlikely. Steven a smokey.

Like Plugger after Dempster's last two great finals, and the fact he has played in 3 GFs for experience I cannot see him missing out now.

Dempster going forward hasn't worked before (i don't think) why try it now

Did anyone see the interview with Mini, BJ and Blake? When a Journo asked Mini if he was confident on holding his spot Mini started giving the typical "I'll just train hard and blah blah blah" answer. Blake then cut him off and said something like "He has nothing to worry about". Guys Mini is not going anywhere.

agreed. he'll be needed against the small pies forwards - he should look to put some work into beams or sidebottom early to let them know it's not going to be easy.
