Playing 2 rucks is ok because one of them is a key forward in charlies absense.

Dropping Cincotta and playing a spud like Fantasia has got me stuffed.
Ditto Durdin (and to a lesser extent IMO Motlop)

I hope we have Fantasia as the sub. I somehow think Kemp will get that role though.

I don't think we should be playing a team that has....
Williams, Durdin, Motlop and Fantasia,
Too many potential, non-contributors. History will tell you that at least one of them will have 6 or less touches and very little else influence over the game.
You could play Cincotta in a similar role who would give you lockdown options, kick as many goals, give you the same defensive pressure and twice as many touches.

Apart from that....i think its a decent side, albeit a little bit different from the norm, but circumstances dictate that.

Cerra with his hammy issues is a big gamble and two rucks a bit mystifying.
Can't see TDK playing....

Suppose with Charlie out they have TDK trying to fill that hole. I would have kept in a couple of the younger blokes rather than bring back Cerra and Doc. Cerra was out of form last time because he had missed too much of the year, Doc could not possibly be ready for a big final, don't care what anyone says, but in for a fit Cincotta, Motlop couldn't get a kick in a stampede right now as he has missed too much footy. Motlop, Durdin and Fantasia doesn't inspire me with alot of confidence. It was a typical Voss/MC team that showed no guts.

100% Kruds, why keep selecting non hackers....small forwards with one wing, a couple that struggle to get four possessions a game... We can't beat the lions with that side.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

After feeling a little bullish about our chances for the past few days..... The Motlop, Fantasia and Durdin aspects are rather deflating....

Still - GO BLUES!!!

IN : McKay, McGovern, Williams, De Koning, Cerra & Docherty
OUT : Cincotta, Moir, Binns, Carroll, Lord & Owies

Our match committee are morons ...... once again !!!

These appear to be extremely desperate decisions that I fear will come back to bite us on the butt. 

How can Cerra recover from a third hammy in that short a time ??

Cincotta out ....... FFS, wave the white flag now.

May as well have selected Martin and been done with it properly.

I fear the worst now, we will be lucky to have 18 fit players on the ground by the final siren.

Spot on.
Unbelievable. FFS.
The four you mention had better have blinders.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

TDK and Cerra need match fitness I have no doubt they are fit and ready to go but they will be rusty. TDK blowing the cobwebs in the forwardline is a good choice if we are to progress.

Expect a late change or two.

2 rucks is fine as Curnow is out.
Blasphemy, ............................... stone him, stone him!

Who have thunk it, selection subject to circumstance and opposition! :o

Of course, if we lose, it's due to two rucks! ::)

Would have left Lord in. Yes might find the tempo challenging, but has a high tackle count, 9 in two matches. The tackling that we are missing with Fogarty out injured.
