Agree

And either include Fort for McStay or don't play Fort at all
 
Prior hasn't been too brilliant at VFL level since coming back the last couple of weeks. He's been okay, but not much more than that.

I'd keep it pretty simple with:

In - Starcevich, Rich, Robertson
Out - Cockatoo, Mathieson, Robinson

yEP, I thought the big O was having a really good game until Fort came on and that stuffed his momentum.

Note- I thought Lyons was pretty good today and pips Rhys as the one to stay in, both can not play, we need another runner.

Ah forgot about Starc, OP adjusted.
 
We need to drop about five players. Matho, Robbo, Lyons, Cockatoo and McStay should all go. But of course, Fagan will keep all his favourites in the team, so it'll just be Cockatoo and Matho. I expect Robbo to stay in.

Just quietly, Linc has been pretty poor for a while now. I'd have dropped him too if not for the Bailey injury.

Really.

I thought he was largely invisible until late, when he received a couple of hand balls out congestion, to then find space in tight to kick the ball forward.

Yep, just going the eye test I thought he was good, I rarely look at stats, with Matho in the inside mid rotation he is never going to get as much of the pill in contests as he did prior to that move.

I'd be happy for us to move on from Matho or Lyons and give Dev a go... if you had to omit one of them to get Dev in who would you omit if it was up to you??

I'm prepared to show my ignorance - What the heck is a mulligan?

It is a golfing term, means you just forget all about that game and pretend it never happened and move on to the next one.

IIRC Fagan used it after the Bombers loss.

Thank you. I don't golf obviously.

Out : Zorko, Robbo, McStay, Cockatoo, Lyons, Gardner
In : Starc, Dev, Lohmann, Prior, Tunstill, Payne

The Lions are too slow, and have too many players that have lost considerable pace. Even Zorko today looked slow. We are 5 players away that are developed from really make the big difference. We wont win it playing these older guys who are a little shot.

Both.

But that won’t happen.

Nor do we currently have the players to bring in for both.

I agree.

But we won’t do it this season. If we did, we would signalling that we believe we have no chance at a flag this year.

Our only choice is to continue with our senior players, and reset over the off-season.

I really like these ins, not sure who you would take out but right on.
 
In: Starce, Rich, Robertson
Out: Cockatoo, Robinson, Lyons/Matho

Still to drop Cocky who was quite good, but need to fit the two defenders in. Robertson absolutely needs to come in and one of the slow inside mids needs to go. Matho led the team in clearances but the majority were poor kicks resulting in turnovers. He's at his best when he's handballing the pill but looked panicked. Still, 8 clearances to Lyons 2.

Robinson is done. I'd rather Answerth on the wing.
 
Out: Adams, McStay, Robinson, Cockatoo, Bailey
In: Lester, Fort, Prior, Robertson, Madden
