I really hope we don't make any changes to our team. We played the best footy for the year last weekend, and we should be able to adapt to any conditions. Against Cox, I reckon we need both rucks. Sorry Licca, but I can't fit you in atm.

They just said on a news break Judd would not be playing this weekend. Then they went on to say that then says perhaps Judd might have played his last game for the WCE if he doesn't sign. Worsfold said he wanted an answer from Judd within 3 days of their final game...

Tyson Stenglien really worries me. He is a fantastic player and hard to counter. This is because you cannot tag him because he tags you...much the same as Kane Cornes.

Kane Cornes tagged cousins so hard that he was forced to sacrifice his own game by running very hard away from contests. This meant that Kane Cornes was also out of the play. This hard running ultimately cost him his season as his hamstring went.

Stenglein will most likely move onto Buckley. To be honest, given Buckley's limited preparation, I can see Stenglein doing a very good job. My worry is that Bucks has never been the sort of player who looks after his opponent...he lets his opponent worry about him. However Stenglein becomes one of their more dangerous midfielders with the others gone.


Therefore, I suggest Bucks goes to Full Forward if Stenglein becomes prominent. This takes stenglein out of the game and out of his comfort zone. It could also force the eagles to make a change, which would allow Buckley to creep back up the ground.

I can also see Stenglein go onto Swan maybe. Again, I would move swan forward. Stenglein wants to hurt you going the other way. It may mean one of our players has to sacrifice his game, but it takes out yet another quality eagles midfielder from the equation
There's more to life than footy.........just not much more.

I had that feeling, that it was our biggest win for the season..... Hopefully it means we are peaking at the right time of the year. Hopefully they are switched on this Friday night....

Stenglein will goto pendles Dave.

If he played on bucks then he will be on the hbf and deep into our forward line, this game will be dominated by small forwards.. Its going to get wet so iam expecting big games from thomas, dids, neon, medders, bucks and davis. Bucks thomas and dids could all find themselfs playing FF.

If its a blood bath might see the big boys sitting up the field more. Because its going to get rough.
