AFL team news: Cottrell in for trip west

The team is in for Round 17.

We are screwed, Freo at home with us having no rucks is different proposition to Haw.

 

[gab213]

Wow so I guess Ed wasn't so good last week after all. Thank god the MC make a logical decision. Few and far between they are.

Never had any doubt that Ed would make way for Cottrell, don't think it was based on his game last week. I did get some good laughs out of those who put forward that Ed would be picked because it was Charlie's 100th though.

The fact that Ed only came in cos Cotters got suspended and hadnt played seniors for weeks befor that was totally ignored.

 

[Lukeblueboy]

Obviously would have been handy for tdk to get up, but sos and youngy will battle manfully I’m sure against there 2 big boys.
Cots in is what I hoped and expected would happen.
Straight forward change imo

The fact that Ed only came in cos Cotters got suspended and hadnt played seniors for weeks befor that was totally ignored.

Exactly, Cotters wasn't dropped and Ed came in purely as cover for a week, that was obvious all along.

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Is there any way I can filter out the term "Selection Integrity" from my BF browsing experience?

It's as ridiculous and unfounded a theory as the Earth is Flat ...

Disappointed Ed has been dropped, happy for Cotters to return though.

We play Optus Stadium fairly well and Freo have played like slackers lately.

Fairly confident of a win.

Ed Sub

 

[Beyond Blue]

Young and JSOS vs Darcy and Jackson

It might not be that bad as last week against the Dogs Treacey was used more in the ruck than Jackson.

Since then it’s been widely reported this week that Jackson is carrying an injury and probably will only play forward.

 

[gab213]

Ed sub

Please no, and the only reason I say that is because I can imagine the reactions

[marcmurphy3]

Ed will be sub and I dont have an issue with it

 

[HavUEvaSeenTheRain]

It’s almost like they’ve identified the right midfield mix about three months after the rest of the footy world.

Well going off this board wanting to put Dow in the midfield mix I wouldn’t say the football world know what the right mix is yet.

 

[SOS Rules]

At least it should be patently clear to our midfielders who will win the hit outs and they should set themselves up accordingly around centre bounces and ball ups. JSOS should act as a fourth midfielder, conceding the hitout or attempting to negate hitout effectiveness at worst, but then getting stuck into the contest to help us win ground balls and clearances. Unfortunately Lewis doesn't have the same attack on the ball that JSOS has so it remains to be seen how effective he will be.

Around the ground we should have a mobility advantage over their ruckman despite Jackson's athletic capabilities.

This is going to be a really challenging game for us. Bring the good parts of our game from the last two wins to this game and we'll go really close. Go Baggers.

Young should just follow Jackson around from ruck to the forward line.

 

[Michael Jezz]

Tough game to tip, this game determines if we are a bottom 6 or middle 6 side
Head says Freo at home against no ruckmen
My Heart says the Blues are built for speed on the big ground.
Heart over head. Blues by 4 points

 

[Blue and Blue]

Young should just follow Jackson around from ruck to the forward line.

Young and Jackson...famous combo.....

 

[SOS Rules]

Young should just follow Jackson around from ruck to the forward line.

Not a bad idea. Needs to play with more with more intent though.

 

[Kernafides]

We got smashed in hit outs last week and it made no difference...add to that Jackson has barely been rucking

 

[Lukeblueboy]

If we can somehow get over the line in this game, I may start to(just the slightest turning) in an anti clockwise rotation, of loosening the bolts that currently hold the lid firmly in its place.

 

[thylacine60]

Young and Jackson...famous combo.....

"That's Gold, Jerry!"

 

[Aphrodite]

Young and Jackson...famous combo.....

 

[Jimmae]

It’s almost like they’ve identified the right midfield mix about three months after the rest of the footy world.

Cottrell is barely contributing positively to midfield play, but he is finishing the play off well in front of goal and vaguely shadowing players going the other way, and that makes him more dangerous than Ed on a wing.

I would have preferred Binns, but at least it's a step forward.

We are screwed, Freo at home with us having no rucks is different proposition to Haw.

We weren't even setting up that defensively last week... there's more that we can do to clamp down and shark taps.

 

[4flagsin5yrs]

Young and JSOS vs Darcy and Jackson

Jackson barely rucked last week.

 

[TD2010]

Young should just follow Jackson around from ruck to the forward line.

Do we have a Chloe in the cheer squad to distract him?
