IN: Mayne
OUT: Crocker
Surely Mayne deserves his chance after a good block of VFL form. The window is now before Elliott, Moore etc start vying for selection as well, at which time he be forever shut out.
Anyway, we'll get more output from Mayne at this point in time than Crocker, who lacks in strength, speed, talent.
The only other one I'd consider is Wills in for Brown. I don't like Brown's dinky chip kicks and loopy handballs...very shaky. Other than that Browny's been doing well and probably won't be omitted. |

They have been Playing Mayne on the wing to change his game style and it will be a horses for courses when he gets into the squad. My thoughts are you don't fix what isn't broken. You want to keep a group of players playing together in as many games as possible. So I can't see them altering a winning team unless it's necessary (injury or resting). On form no one deserves to be dropped. Exception to the rule would be a fit a Moore or Elliot but they are not fit. |

Spot on. Brown has been great the last two games and is getting better with each game. Crocker has been applying great defensive pressure on the forward line even though he hasn't been kicking a lot of goals. The equivalent of Crocker is Goldsack, not Mayne, who is playing a new role this year. Aish plays on the wing as does Brown, so it's difficult at the moment to see how Mayne gets a game. |

| After the solid performance last week we should go in with an unchanged line up. Don't want to upset the balance unless it's purely for injury or match-up reasons. Think we'll win again. We're up and about and could stick it to any one the way we're going at the moment. I'm expecting a tough game but we'll tough it out simply because we're tougher. The four day break after doesn't help but it certainly makes the game all the more important. Expect changes for the tiggaz game for player management reason. |

A spot on assessment in my view. Yes Mayne is kicking the door in and he'll get his chance. Win or lose on AD, the selection for the Tigers match will be a headache with Mayne, Adams, Elliott and Faz all likely to be available - and throw into that mix possibly Wells and Moore!
For the first time in a long time we have a nice problem to have  Shades of a recent yesteryear maybe!

Having a look at Moments in Time on Collingwood Media and the 1995 Anzac Day
Really worth a look and Sav Rocca 13 kicks 10 marks for 9 goals
Bucks 30 touches—-our CHF Dermie “The Kid” Brereton

isn't that funny. Commentators are in awe of Browns skills by hand indicating that a couple of goals came as a direct result of Brown's precision hands. i agree with the commentators on this one.
i guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I don't want to pick on Browny too much as I think he's doing well and improving all the time. With his handballing, I can't remember exact instances but I had the feeling he's done a few of those loopy handballs where the other player waits so long to receive the ball that he gets tackled immediately when he does catch it. That's one of my pet hates. Maybe it was Phillips or Maynard or Crispy..I'm sure they've done a few of those.
Definitely though his kicking needs to flatten out as he has done a lot of iffy chip kicks. |

We seem to be favourites for this match everywhere, which I reckon is based on current form only. Probably not much between both sides at their best. We however have many more of our best 22 off the park. Really need to win this one boys.

Presume both teams will be allowed to nominate 26 players, with 4 to be culled on match morning? Is that what has happened in previous years?
