Strategy Changes: Round 16 Fremantle vs. St Kilda

[stax on the mull]

Owens? We aren't going to put any extra work into him.

Kicked 3 against us last time.

 

[malpaso]

Higgins named on the interchange, having a laugh..

Kicked 3 against us last time.

Sharman was worse. Last game was an abomination. I wouldn't worry about it.

In : darcy , omac, dudley

Out: raz, sharp, draper

Sub: aish

 

[TheLastCall]

Garcia is back specifically to tag Brayshaw. They will run the double tag again for sure.

Watch Serong and Andy get lots a free kicks tonight. Media has been all over tagging this week. Umpires will be keeping an eye on the Taggers this week.

 

[Taylor]

From memory Serong had about 10 contested possessions and one of the Jack's for St Kilda had 25

I'm sure they'd prefer to get the free kicks on Sunday.

To quote Fury Road: Do not, my friends, become addicted to primetime. It will take hold of you, and you will resent its absence!

and Dudley confirmed in by JL

 

[CaseySibosadoHOF]

Sean Darcy and Dudley confirmed in by JL

You'd imagine that's at least 1 of Sharp or Ras dropped. And whichever isn't dropped is probably on high alert for when others return.

Fyfe likely plays regardless of how people feel about that, and obvs a key back needs to be selected from the bench.

 

[FreoRicci]

Sean Darcy and Dudley confirmed in by JL

Banfield and Aish still on.

Shape shouldn’t be dropped for this game. This match he’s needed more then anything with the runners Saints have

My guess is it’s Sharp. Freddie or Wags can cover the wing.

Aish for Darcy
Sharp for Dudley
Draper for McDonald

Fyfe back to sub.

Agreed. I think it may be Ras that is dropped.

Fyfe to sub.

 

[mattis117]

I would start Fyfe for one more game to increase the load on him. Back to sub next week when Switta returns.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

I am extremely nervous on the idea of Fyfe, Darcy and Jackson (excellent as a ruck, bad for a mid) in the midfield at once trying to defend transition. Particularly against a side that is going to sit 20 players back of the contest to clog it up and try to score exclusively on rebound

 

[swanny1234]

And quite rightly

I don’t disagree, but you need to have the cap space for it

 

[swanny1234]

Nah he’s sub or he’s out. Sad to say it but he’s just too slow. I think having both Darcy and Fyfe in the same midfield concerns me, too slow.

 

[StingBitten]

Does this mean Draper will likely stay in?

 

[yakamoto]

Don’t know what it means but Draper should definitely stay in.

 

[Superkoops]

Just because OMac is listed as an in on the extended bench doesn’t mean he will play. Same goes for Dudley.

I reckon Darcy will play.

Aish out Darcy in.

Sub: Fyfe, Banfield or Ras

Roger

Banfield is in trouble then

Ras or Fyfe sub

Or is Dudley sub??

 

[mayne iac]

If Ras is out, The committee are morons.
Perfect game for Fyfe as a sub, slow saints, he'll come on and be faster than some of them.

 

[Big Animal]

glad to see the wombat back. Makes something out of nothing like Reid and Bolton. Better than just another role player doing the boring role player thing. Like giving the Weetbix a break for the day and heading off for buttermilk pancakes with raspberry compote and ice cream at the local. And who doesn't love wombats.
