Usually this thread is already up by now, so I've created it myself.

Regardless of our injuries etc, this is a game we must surely win, unless the wheels have completely fallen off our wagon. The Dees are a rabble. At our best we're very good, but at present we're an average team.

A few weaknesses of ours were exposed against the Dogs and we must rectify them pronto if we are to have any hope of making the finals now.

Firstly, Oxley is flat footed and slow. Unless he's a loose man in defense there is no spot for him in our team.

Secondly, Blair's best is in the past, and he has been unable to develop with the modern fast running game.

Thirdly, now that we are playing for our finals hopes, we need to drop Witts and rely on Grundy as our specialist ruckman.

Fourthly, Fasolo's days are numbered, so let's try someone else in his role.

Fifthly, I'd replace Kennedy, who appears to be not up to senior footy.

Given all of that, my changes would be:

Out: Witts, Blair, Oxley, Kennedy, Fasolo.

In: Marsh, Seedsman, Adams, Karnezis, Dwyer

WE absolutely must, must, must, pants and crap all over this mob of houndstooth jacket ponces. No iffs, butts, maybes, no more close losses, this is it, line in the sand, a massive line. We must come out breathing fire, smash these Deeeees and Harry and co, into oblivion, i want a big win, nothing less, we must get real angry for this game, after five losses, and wreak our vengeance on these clowns. Pies by 67 points, and we take no prisoners either. !

Another 50/50 game probably a little in out favour. Good to be back on the G.

Out: Oxley, Blair
In: Marsh, Adams

Does anyone really care anymore? We're not up to it yet. Blood the kids, try to get Reid fit, and hit 2016 with games under our belt.

This place will go into melt-down of we lose, nothing surer!

[Wokko]

I still have us making finals, should win at least 4 and get in on superior percentage and/or the half game over Geelong.

Melbourne are in poor form and are a poor side.

We should win comfortably.

If not pressure on the coach and players will be justifiable.

This is a game we simply shouldn't lose.

OUT: Witts (rested), Oxley (rested), Maynard (omitted), Kennedy (omitted)
IN: Adams, Young, Karnezis, Dwyer

EDIT

Some talk Cloke, Elliott and Reid are possibilities to be available for AFL selection. If that's the case, I'd bring them in along with Adams.

Lets scare the bejeesus outa the Deeeees, and pick a forward liine of Moore, cloke and reid, plus elliott.
