Don’t have a problem with it if we’re short on half backs but otherwise its no for me. Not sure why Cincotta wouldn’t come in if Williams doesn’t get up and Cerra in for Carroll (of the list mentioned above).
Carroll can start at HF and Raz can go sub.
Agree tbh and same with Williams (who I don't think will get up anyway).
Tough ask for Durdin coming in (maybe) cold but prefer that to potentially creating a longer term injury with Weiters. Cincotta appears ready to go and should come in for Williams.
Pretty obvious high balls to Harry need to stop now, Aleer can jump over the moon.
Forward line is as one dimensional as a piece of a4 paper.
Ffs sort it out and take advantage of our stoppage dominance.
We need Jack Martin back now and I’ll take Cunners cleanness as well along with Cez’s kicking inside 50.
And if Voss wants bombs to Harry at least have some ******* smalls there to mop up. You can’t have them so far up the ground to help defend and then they’re in no man’s land on the way back.
Just some general commentary:
Saw the post from AG where a footy show suggested that Crippa prefers Pitt.
Assuming this is based on fact I can understand it given Pitts bulkiness at the ball up and his ability to throw his weight around, plus tbh a sample size of one game for a far from 100%...
His first few contests were horrendous, coughed up two holding frees I think for two goals and got burnt in a chase so I was thinking the same. Did tighten up from there on but it surprised me that he came straight back into the seniors.
His main advantage over Kemp is when up and going he...
Defence will always struggle to cover all bases when the ball is coming in hot though and the Crows were cleaner with ball in hand when it counted; ie in transition ending with shots on goal. In contrast our bounce out of the backline was slower and we know how that usually goes.
Where the...
Pretty much.
28 shots through the sticks to 20 plus Adelaide moved the ball off their back half with purpose for the first time this year contributing to them having 7 more marks inside 50.
As an aside Walsh alone laid more tackles than our entire forward line. (was exceptional though with 13)
Yeah forgot about Fog but agree, him and Mots at this point.
Martin plays taller and I think Kemp should be persisted with down back at this stage, just not sure we need three talls in the F50 when all are fit. Also found it strange that Harry seemed to stay closer to goal this game when...
Good points.
Martin in particular as a marking/goal kicking option and tbh i'd prefer TDK playing a kick behind the play once the contest is done with, just seems to cause havoc for Charlie/Harry when forward.
Haven't liked the three smalls ever and would only go with two if everyone was...
Sam Walsh, Weiters, Charlie’s goals, Boyd and that’s about it. Kennedy in the middle looked better (until Saad went off) think it helped our clearance dominance along with Walsh obviously.
- A number of players down on last year at this point; Newman, O Hollands, Acres kicking is letting him...
Agree in that winning clearances all game is ******* hard work and no midfield will dominate every other midfield every game. it's one of those stats that can't just be considered in isolation.
As long as you are making it hard to get a clean clearance where the ball is hacked forward or coming...
Nail and head I reckon.
No Walsh and Doc has changed the dynamic and add in Pitts hustle and bustle (Think TDK has been going really well though).
George is covering for Crippa and Paddy only came in late in the season.
