Changes and discussion vs Adelaide

[fronkalicious]

Guessing stringer and Jong also out. Soooo

In - Roberts
Out - Williams

In - Dickson
Out - stringer

In - campbell
Out - Jong

In - hunter
Out - wallis

 

[Dav1d]

As much as it pains me....

I think the final bench should be Hunter Campbell Roberts

which would mean Honey, Stringer come out of the team and one from Bonti or Jong

 

[threenewpadlocks]

I wonder which of the 8 goals kicked on Tom Young last week was good enough to keep him in the team this week.

 

[StringyDog]

Roberts better be in side, if we go in with Young and Wood as second and third defenders we will get smacked

The one's kicked on Tom Williams.

 

[maddog37]

Think that moon boot on Williams might have been more of an issue than originally declared?

I hope the reason he played so shitty last week was part due to fitness.

To be honest at this point with Tom I'm not sure which of these scenarios would be better.

 

[threenewpadlocks]

In all seriousness though, this is the defensive match ups I would play

Wood - Lynch. Wood played well as an undersized KPD for the first four weeks, don't know why we shied away from it.
Young - Podsiadly. Young, being short and slow, can play on the shorter and slower key forwards. Don't want him on anybody else
Talia - Jenkins

Roberts to play forward and back and help out in case of poor rotations.

 

[threenewpadlocks]

The one's kicked on Tom Williams.

Am I honestly the only one who thinks that Williams, despite having a poor game, wasn't as shocking as Young?
Henderson kicked his first three or four on Young, being burnt on the lead, before we had the sense to move him onto their slowest forward, Casbault.
They exploited his lack of pace, which opened up space for others and let Williams have to defend one out.

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

Happy to see Tory back in the side, hope he's up for the game. Long shot to hope Honey will get a berth, but there's always that possible "late change" .

Does it matter? both are spuds.

I agree. Young is terrible when isolated against tall opponents. He is an onballer.

 

[doggies ftw]

No Moz sucks but happy with the inclusions I guess. Dickson named on the field, and the article on the Dogs page makes out like Campbell and Roberts would play. Obviously Roberts is a must, cannot go in with just Talia, Young and Wood! Even still, thats a hell of a lot of inexperience down back, Murph and Higgins are going to have to step up as the leaders they are.

Looks like we could be playing with you're standard set up for just about the first time all year. 2 proper talls and some 3rd talls down back, 1 KPF, a couple of mids and a proper resting ruck down forward.

Good to see Honey is getting close, but I wouldn't be bringing him in this week. Fletch, Campbell, Hunter, Bonts on the bench for me.

 

[Scary_Foot_9]

If Dickson comes in I'd love to see Lachie go in the midfield (As I assume Jake will be dropped.)

Don't think that's right. Henderson only kicked his first on Young (from a floater kick that everyone misjudged that landed on his chest) but I think Waite kicked all three on him? So call it a 4-4 draw.

 

[Scary_Foot_9]

I'd leave Tory isolated as close to the goal square as possible, leave it to others to go up the ground. I'd say apart from Gia he's our craftiest forward.

 

[VitalDread]

In - Roberts
Out - Williams

In - Dickson
Out - stringer

In - campbell
Out - Jong

In - hunter
Out - wallis

That's the most realistic approach.
We missed Hunter in the forward line and allow Jones to move the ground abit.

 

[Cudi]

Just watched the Steven King video on the website and it sounds certain Campbell will be one of the ins.
I actually love the look of that forward line named, just looks very dangerous

Backline matchups I'd go:

Young - Lynch
Talia - Jenkins
Roberts - Pods
Wood - Betts (I'd rather Picken but just think he has to play on Danger, or maybe Boyd goes to him?)
Murphy - Patrenko

Also Rutten out for them is pretty big if we go with the forward line of Crameri, Jones, Campbell and maybe even Roberts.

 

[cleveland]

Called it
Honey and Roberts!

Honey wont play

 

[LukasTheGreat]

Campbell has to stay in the side, Will needs a chop out

 

[doggies ftw]

I don't mind the idea of Wallis, Jong both out and Boyd playing on Danger, changes our whole midfield dynamics

 

[Spectre]

Campbell has to stay in the side, Will needs a chop out

With the drop of form Will has shown recently, he almost needs to be rested. Footscray watchers, any chance Campbell has been doing so well down there that he might actually replace Will?

well if he can replicate the average of 44 hit outs per game, it is a possibility

 

[fronkalicious]

Boyd plays on danger. Jong back to footscray. Picken on betts.

Yes, I think you are.
