Preview Round 9 v WCE MCG Sunday May 11th 1.10pm - Sim City

[THE_GUN]

I agree with pretty much everything you’re saying except the team being selected each week this year has been results based. We have been selecting what our match committee considers to be our best available team. As this team is close to our oldest/most experienced the results 100% matter when it comes to team selection.

In 3 years time Broad, Vlastuin, Short, McIntosh, Lynch and Nank are likely all gone. Taranto and Hopper will be on their last legs.

From the 14 other players being selected each week, excluding Balta, how many are actually going to be running around in our best 23.

Put Lalor, Trainor and Faull to the side as they are high draft picks in a strong draft, i.e. much more likely to make the grade.

Campbell has obviously been the standout of the rest. Brown has probably shown the next highest level but is inconsistent. Miller is solid but also the oldest of the bunch.

Then we have Ross, Dow, Banks, Trezise, HRS, Green, Mansell and MRJ (from our last team). There’s been the odd decent game/quarter from this group but overall they are all appearing most likely to be a bunch of fringe players. Other than Trezise/Green, this group is our next most experienced and should be held more accountable for their lack of influence in games. We should be rotating these players more, along with the likes of McIntosh/Short, in favour of our younger talent.

I’m hopeful that Sims and Kmac 2.0 are getting full games this week, and we are starting to increase the player rotation. However, I am dumfounded as to why Trezise has been dropped ahead of the likes of McIntosh and Ross, both woeful v the Hawks. Green also survives another week of producing nothing.

If we dont get a serious injury that we sub a player out
The player most likely to get subbed out is Sims

Maybe they should do what the pies did and rest the oldies, we need to have them fit for the finals. I swear some posters think the young ones need a break instead of getting as much experience as possible. I mean there poor young bodies must be exhausted.

Yeh let’s not give the young bodies who haven’t done multiple pre seasons and who are still developing muscle mass and growing, not have a break and play 23 games for the year so they can all get niggles, soreness and eventually cop an injury that puts them out for the next pre season or until next season

Pissed they spelt his surname wrong when naming the bests.

pretty simple really Macca can run his guts out for 80 minutes a game, the other fella about 35. having 7 or 8 in the side that lack a solid fitness base is partly the reason we get smashed late in games/quarters. its a proven fact that young players without tanks also lack consistency of effort and concentration. how many times have we seen macca scrap his arse off with 2nd and 3rd efforts. it's what every coach and most supporters love.

All very logical but the problem is that Macintosh is worse than the kids for disappearing from the game after half time. Also you seem to be assuming that Macintosh would be replaced by a 2024 recruit however there are plenty of pre 2024 recruits that need a chance in the midfield. If these players can lock in a position then that will fast track our development

I recon we get done tomorrow on nothing but eagles needing the win more than we do

If we can give lynch some supply he /we should dominate their under manned back line but I’m mentally preparing for the loss

Yze is a complete moron. This I am convinced of now. Continues to play shit trucks like Toss Ross, Banks and Ralphshit. It’s embarrassing from him now

What is your problem with Ralphsmith? He was just about our only player going hard at it all game, was under most contests and still provided speed on the outside.

That would be very enjoyable. I have a bad feeling though, hopefully it's wrong
