What I want...

Out:
Douglas, Henderson

In:
Thommo, Wigg


What I suspect might happen...

Out:
Henderson, Milera

In:
Thommo, Mackay



For me, we have to keep the balance of inside / outside players the way it is. To be honest, it's pretty tough to justify any of the 3 of Hendo, Douglas or Milera staying in the side right now. Everyone else from today's 22 deserves their spot next week.

It's pretty obvious that we'll only make 1 or 2 unforced changes. It's equally obvious that Thommo will be coming in - surely we've learnt by now that this needs to be for an inside player right? Lyons and M Crouch were both in our best 8 players today. Douglas was already lucky to be selected today, and in our worst 4. Should be a no-brainer but I'm just not getting a vibe that it will actually happen. I fear the coaching staff may wish to "release" Dougie into the outside role currently occupied by Milera, with Mackay replacing Hendo and Thommo replacing Dougie on the inside. I don't like it. Dougie can't hit the side of a house by foot right now and his confidence is just way down. He's stopped running.

I wouldn't have a massive problem with Mackay coming in for either of Hendo or Milera, but I'd just prefer to see Wigg finally get his shot as I feel his elite footskills could be important on the massive Domain Stadium.

I wouldn't be giving Wigg his 1st game playing away against WCE at Subi
 
I recognize the good McGovern does believe me, and I feel that he's an inch away from just looking like a star during a game, but I don't think a short rest is gonna hurt him.
The trouble with putting him back in the sanfl is playing as a forward in that side is a joke with the amount of spuds that cant hit a target...
or dont even try to. I feel he is about to hit his straps with the way hes starting to grab them and the goal kicking will come.There we plenty
that missed shots on goal today.
 
For the first time in a long time ae have consistent high level performers in the SANFL pushing good performers.

I do wonder if Milera and McGoverns name was Wright or Mackay whether the same diacussion would be had.
 
Depending on what the clubs plans are with Thommo ie whether there is an extended rest or it was only ever going to be this week , then Thompson in Douglas out. Leaves it a midfield move and doesn't impact on any other positions.

Henderson may find himself a benefit of a big win - minimal change policy
 
In: Brad Crouch
Out: Richard Douglas

Then the team would be (almost) perfect.

Would like Tom Doedee to take Henderson spot before the end of the season.

No ...when they were, the subject of ALL posts was the "Golden Pass " .......the Crows and Noble in particular won't play the kids ...and when they do they drop them after 1 game

Fast forward and the club is doing what this board f ......g carried on about like gooses .....and BF is still not happy :rolleyes:

I feel dumber for reading this thread ......going to watch something intellectual by comparison .....family guy
 
Sorry for the intrusion.
Love how most of you seem to be suggesting changes despite coming off a clinical performance- bodes well for your team's depth
Crows are easily my favourite opposition team, so all the best for the rest of the season , regardless of what happens this weekend
#weflyasone
Are any of you flying over for (or otherwise attending, if you're based in Perth) the game this weekend?
(I had the privilege of being at last year's game at Domain, and unfortunately, also flew over to A.O last year ....but expecting this game to be much closer than either of those 2 :thumbsu:)
