List Mgmt. TIMBER!! Another defender gone, What happens now?

[Matele]

With Brown going down today, our already shaky looking defense has taken another peg down.

Question is, how do we cover it? We're in serious trouble whenever it goes back. Are there strategies/ player setouts you'd like to see? Discuss here.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

McInnes to come in and get first crack IMO.

This. The only positive that can come out of this year now is seeing some new faces. Although it's not like our full strength team was gonna do any real damage this year anyway.

TRUE. But is Fraser McInnes a defender? Otherwise Powell may be considered.

Yeah, hopefully McInnes can make some impact to the side.

I'm more concerned that with Glass and Waters gone, thus was our year to get the defence used to that. Now the usual guys are most likely gone for the season, doesn't gell well for 2016. Should have been a year of solidifying the team and the game plan to have a crack in '16. That kinda falls away as of now.

Barrass, not Powell

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

We'll be fine... Gov, Schoey to come back in next week, McInnes and Barrass in reserve, Powell when he comes back from injury. We could even try Tunbridge, Colledge, Main and Sinclair over the course of the season. Plenty of options...

 

[Matele]

Either some of the more experienced guys in the middle go back. Like Rosa or Hurn, or you blood youngsters and hope like hell that they can kinda hold their own.

 

[Taylor]

Yeo won't play key back will he?

 

[getgaff]

Ridiculous. Not fair at all RE: Mitch Brown BUT it does give a chance for McInnes to show himself next week probabaly.

 

[getgaff]

Yeo won't play key back will he?

Not a KPD mid no

 

[Matele]

Schoey back next week yeah? That'll help a bit no doubt.

 

[Scotland]

Schofield is massive but he's not a key defender. He's not a body player, he's good as third man up, playing on smaller opponents and running off half back.

 

[The Passenger]

You'd think McInness will come into the team.

Given the injuries, McGovern McInness with Schoey as a third tall is not the worst position to be in.

 

[dajesmac]

Schofield, Gov and Powell is probably my preference with Powell taking Schofields old role.

If Schofield is out for another week though that is a problem for next week.

 

[ROYAL EAGLE]

So who do you think will come in for brown ?

Schofield and McInnes

 

[WCErevival]

Schofield will replace Brown. McGovern seemed to do ok tonight as the number 1 defender. Our midfield is the greatest worry letting easy ball through

 

[Marlin01]

Do St Kilda still want him?

 

[larrikin]

Barrass is still playing WAFL Reserves - no chance.

Schofield will come in for sure, maybe McInnes too.

Schofield been ruled out for next week already I was told.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Schofield wouldn't be the go for Brown's spot anyway. He's a third tall, not a KPD's bottom. I'd rather we chuck McInnes in or even Barrass after a few league games to fill the role.

 

[womble54]

Very sorry to see Brown go down tonight guys. McGovern is becoming a star but no one deserves the run of outs in your tall back stocks you've copped. Good luck for the rest of the year.

 

[Play by Numbers]

Look, the Bulldogs don't have any gun KPF's.

Despite McGoverns performance, WC looked shaky in the air. Any team with one, or even two good key forwards is going to kick big bags with fast ball movement.

Geelong and Sydney may go close to having two players with double figures.

 

[94_Eagles]

Dat injury curse is insane.

In Main we trust
