Congratulations to Charlie Dean. I am rapt for him that he has got a call up. I also think John Noble is in line for selection. I base this not on any inside information as such, but because if you go to the CFC website, the paused video has a huge image of John Noble celebrating his goal. I have noticed in the past that when a player is visually featured on the site, it is often a sign that he will play.

Article in the AFL website referencing Dean is also talking to Noble playing. It states: "The coach also confirmed running defender John Noble would face the Giants after being one of the hard-luck stories of Collingwood's premiership"Magpietothemax wrote:Congratulations to Charlie Dean.

So we know Dean and Noble are in, we can start to consider who else makes it. Many would have had Howe in their team - so Dean a straight swap. Not sure who Noble comes in for. Perhaps Pendles misses too and Crisp plays more midfield and Noble goes to HBF? Could he play on Toby Bedford?
It's never as good/nor bad as it seems...

Noble presents us with greater speed and versatility in defence.mattdally wrote:As for Noble being in, that's a poor selection.
The speed and defensive pressure of GWS small forwards Brent Daniels (172cm/75kg) and Toby Bedford (179cm/75kg) were a key part to GWS surge in 2023.
Darcy Jones (175cm 70kg) pick #21 in the 2022 draft, is set to be added to the mix after missing the 2023 after his ACL injury, while arguably the biggest shock on draft night last year was the Giants using pick #12 on Phoenix Gothard (179cm/72kg), another quick and dangerous small forward.

Great how Fly is so cool, wont be saying n0thing on all the bad mouth shit coming from up North, GWS, hes told our guys not to respond, but take it in, and let their actions speak louder than words.

But wow, two man team? they pushed us to within a point in a Prelim.
I have GWS as faves going into this....given i think we will be rusty coming off a shorter pre-season.
As for faves, GWS have been faves the whole pre-season. And they're getting shorter... Right now,
GWS 1.67
Collingwood 2.23.

Doubt it. They're not the same position.mattdally wrote:...
Noble's selection may keep out Fin or Reef which would be a backwards step.
And not convinced Markov is actually better than Johnny.
