Preview Changes Vs Cats Round 9

[ziad]

I think a few underestimate his impact.

I have always had a thing about Hitouts to Advantage. I believe that they should be counted as disposals as I can't see them as any different to a handball out of a stopage.

Against Saints he had 15 hitouts to advantage, couple that with his 14 disposals and you could say he had a 30 possession game. Massive impact.

what happened to the GWS train when mummy was cut out?

Here we go Chris Scott begging umpires for free kicks for his Selwood .

 

[boondy]

Hey guys, hope it's ok to post in here...

Just wondering what kind of reception Chris Scott will get from the crowd: on a scale from "feral" to "Freo supporter"?

Now I read in the paper he wants free kicks for Joel Selwood I think I will boo him . Might even change my avatar

Dont think Hutch will be fit. Wasn't in the training photos and was at the nephews school doing a coaching clinic.

They're going to choose McGinnity, you can just feel it.

 

[Eastern Rangers]

That doesnt bode well for maginness , really thought he was on the up and up

Why? Has talent and will be retained for 2016. Gets a single year to make his case for the senior list, if that isn't a perfect storm then i don't know what is.

If Newman shows form enough late this year and comes onto the senior list for 2016, then Maginness will have less problems getting elevated. Especially if Newman is able to force Hill out of our best 25 and into retirement.

I like those changes alot. College can play mid and forward and would be good to give Waterman a go. Would he be ready even as sub? Thought we played 1 to many defenders last week so bringing in 2 mids i like it.

Well a sub is there for a quarter and a bit. If it's endurance that's the issue for him then he should be ok. Especially if the contest is hard and close fought.

UNLESS THERE IS A SERIOUS INJURY EARLIER IN THE GAME...

I couldnt find a thread about todays west australian Scott asking for free kicks , maybe it will come out online tomorrow

 

[lusheslewis]

Don't think Waterman is ready, Mcginnity is fine as long as we have a good match up for him.

 

[BITW]

Waterman can't even run out a full game in the WAFL yet.

I like Barrass and Ellis in for Bennell & Nelson to combat the Cats' tall forwards (Hawkins, Stanley, Clark). Has been playing consistently well in the WAFL and if the MC think he's ready, I think now is the time. Plus, Bennell/Nelson are surplus to our defensive needs - small defenders. We already have Wellers, Shepp, Butler, Nelson on the ground every week.

Ellis comes in cos he is best 22 over the other two.

And who comes in for yeo?

You make a compelling argument and I agree if we have a good match for him he should be selected

Any mums will be in the grandstand though so he can watch the game from there

 

[bUCKET__]

friggin love to see another debutant in Waterman as the sub. frig

If he is forced to come on early, plonk him in a forward pocket and give Cripps/Lecras/Hill more rotations up the ground. If he can't run out the game he'll still do more than McGinnity, who can only run out a game like a headless chook.

 

[BITW]

And who comes in for yeo?

Woops, forgot all about our golden boy. In that case;

Bennell > Barrass
Nelson > Ellis
Yeo > Hutchings (if available, if not McGinnity)

I agree with above sentiments, I don't see any other mids being ready. Lucas would be my first pick of the rest as he's played before, but I don't want his first game this year to be against a hungry Geelong.

3 very defensive players there. Goes against how weve been playing all season

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

As I said on the podcast, don't think bringing in Ellis on the back of one limited-minutes WAFL appearance is the best idea, particularly with Selwood already being underdone.

I'd rather mcginnity being in the stands trying to * someone's mum rather than * our chances of winning out on the oval

 

[Yamumluvsbigcox]

Debut waterman as the sub ! That will be our 5 the debut this year

 

[Here2tellyouwhy]

Think it's Colledge for Yeo. He deserves a go and is in form.

Bennell for sub maybe?

 

[twce13]

No.

Colledge for yeo.
Bennell to sub. Or hutchings for Bennell and he plays sub.

 

[Yamumluvsbigcox]

WTF is this talk if McGinnity !
Are we tanking
