Ins: Presti, Wellingham
Out: McCaffer, O'Bree

Team balance reasons, both were "reasonable" tonight, but we need Presti against the 3 Cats talls, and Wellingham is in our top 10 players.

In: presti (a must), medhurst or dick, wellingham
Out: Macaffer (only cos this is a must win, not dropped on performance), Anthony, dont know lol o'bree? but he played great..
 
Will proably cop it for this but i would only make one change if goldsack plays in the 2s

In: Goldsack
Out: Harry O

Done alot of dumb things the past two weeks and needs a wake up call Goldy(when playing) has been gunning it in the 2s and deserves a shot
 
This is the kind of game Presti is saved for I guess.

In: Presti, Wellingham
Out: Brown, O'Bree

Medhurst for Anthony depending on fitness I guess, not too worried whether or not that change happens or not.

It's very possible a few younger guys will start getting a rest soonish. Wouldn't be too shocked to see a Sidebottom given a week off soon.
 
Hard call tonight

IN: Medhurst, Wellingham (both if fit) and Presti
OUT: ????? Never easy

Brown and Reid both played well, don't deserved to be dropped.

Davis??

Brown had 3 handballs, 1 mark and 3 tacles for the game :confused: . Have always said he needs to get more of the ball.

Presti a shoe in next week.

I agree that Caff may be dropped but O'Bree was really good tonight, was as good as Ball in the contest and really contributed, you know what my call is NO CHANGES NEXT WEEK!

Tough one and will be unfortunate to see players go out.

I think we need Presti for Geelong. He is a level head down there and if Geelong happen to get a run on he will be solid.

Medhurst will come in if fit.

In - Presti, Medhurst, Wellingham

Out - Brown, Anthony, Macaffer

Apologies to all outs.

Does he really need more footy? We get so much run out of Shaw and O'Brien. Maxwell can find footy and Reid is getting the pill.

I would find it hard to think of Brown conceding a goal since returning to the 1's.
 
does anyone think having presti back will prob/hopefully give max/harry a little boost they prob need at the moment.

we always talk about a key forward dawes/anthony taking pressure of a cloke? I think a fit presti means harry and max can play a better brand of footy.....or just hoping cause they will need to play a cracker.
 
O'Bree was good tonight. I don't think he will go out of the side. Played a new role across half forward.

Macaffer and Anthony both didn't really have an impact and we all pretty much know Presti will come in.

Like Invig said let's see how the VFL side goes tomorrow.
I thought he killed it; early on he was gettting all the balls out of the packs

If you mean O'Bree.. agree fully, thought he was great tonight and will keep his spot... was there when the game was to be won

A lousy 3 possessions per game is enough now? Yes he does because we cant afford to have he and Prestigiacomo getting a handful of possessions per game if they are both in the same side. Getting more possessions also makes his opponent more accountable and creates other options.

Then theres the issue of our defence leaking a few goals lately - bit of a coincidence this has happened since Presti's been out.

We don't need three pure KPDs imo. If we do plan on bringing back Presti, it'll be at the expense of one of Brown or Reid. Most likely Brown.

Maxwell can manage a Podsiadly type. Can't afford to have two sole shut down defenders in Brown and Presti.

But Presti's not in the side.

We get a shit load of defensive rebound. I think we can settle with the fact Brown's opponent, which is usually the number 1 forward, is not getting the football.

i actually kinda agree in terms of harrys form , his last month has been pretty down, i thought he was injured.

Leons another that needs a wake up call also

I don't think anyone's arguing for dropping Brown unless Presti's the one to come back in - if they are, let me know, and I'll sort them out.
 
At this stage:

Out Brown, Anthony, Obree
In Presti, Medhurst, Wellingham

People might think Maccafer should go instead of Obree, but we don't need another slow midfielder against Geelong. Maccafer can apply pressure in the backline, rotate through the midfield and go forward, just more flexibility.

Brown and Presti are likewise similar types. Nothing wrong with the shut-down, low possession game, but you can't have two - just like you can't have two slow mids.

Medders if fit for Anthony writes itself.
 
O'bree was good and bad at the same time.. he turned it over my foot a bit when he had no pressure on him!.. wellingham adds more pace and should replace him.

prestigicomo is a must if fit especially if pods hawkins and mooney all play not sure who goes out.

apart from that there isn't much need for change so 2 changes!

o'bree for wellingham
presti (if fit) for .... wood. i don't know?? can jolly ruck alone against blake?

i don't know how to improve the team its so hard we are playing so well.
