Clark should play his natural inside position mid this week now rather than on a wing mainly like last week (still racked them up though) - must have rookie for mine.
I don't trust Simmo to play any of our young players in their natural positions regardless of who is out, lol

Hopefully Clark does play pure inside, I loved what I saw last week.

- playing at the Gabba against a good side, coming back from a shoulder injury etc ....
- "might" have Berry as company ...
You mean, Berry as company on the bench when their shoulders pop? :ROFLMAO::rolleyes:

Or that Berry would tag Clark?

Don't think the Lions will tag anyone in a game they could be looking at winning by 100+ points. So long as Clark can lay a strong tackle he'll keep the score ticking over, plenty of ball chasing by WCE I reckon...

Well Berry is their supposed "tagger / run with role" option ... wouldn't be surprised to see him unleashed this week ...

Yeah getting nervous now on one of my possible DT picks .... no ball means no points ...
- back to the drawing board tomorrow ...

Does Neale score well in easy games? Is Neale a good Captain selection, or will he play in 2nd gear?

And Kayo will never go up once it's established will it :rolleyes:
Used to be that watching thousands of hated ads per year was the price a person paid for content. Now pay + ads. The future just keeps on improving!
I just think people complain for the sake of complaining in all honesty, real first world problems.

Here’s an interesting conundrum, if you have the VC on Macrae and he goes 140+ do you run the gauntlet with Neale against WC 🤔
Bank the 140+ easy. Neale could go off with an injury in the first, second or third quarter or the Lions intentionally manage his TOG this weekend or he spends further stints forward. You would need to be extremly confident of Neale scoring at least a 160-165 minimum to consider forgoing a 140+. The risk outweighs any potential reward.

Neale could break a SC record this weekend

To be honest, it strikes me as a game where 11 Lions will go 100+ and someone like Charlie Cameron kicks 7 goals to get the massive score while the midfielders all get 120s.

Hard to see Neale getting below about 120 without any sort of tag, but you would never pass up a 140.

Simple answer? Find a late loophole and put the VC on Lachie ;)

Or for those without a Sunday loop, confident of Neale scoring at least 120 and concerned about their VC scoring within the 120-130 range complicating a Neale C decision, then I do not mind placing it on someone who usually would not receive the duties such as a J Short/I Heeney/etc. Even Whitfield for a laugh, in the hope he finally scores in triple figures.
