We just lost to North Melbourne at home. Let that sink in. There is no timeline here where Sheed and Gaff should be in the side - if they weren't able to lift us to win against Norf then they are never going to be able to do it. Literally no point to their selection.
Oh but Sheed tagged Oliver...
Positives
Ginbey was a beast, felt like he had far more of the footy than the stats reflected. He is coming along well with more responsibility, hopefully he can handle the pressure and his development doesn't suffer.
Yeo just goes after it over and over again even when he hasn't got a lot of...
Certainly some valid arguments to move the magnets with the likes of Liam Ryan and RyanMaric but the damage was done on turnovers and poor decision making from the bottom few players. ie. injuries and list management. Most of the team were quite good today. Some of the defensive efforts around...
After the bye we could have Allen, Kelly, Hunt and LEdwards all available for selection. Brockman’s leave of absence also finishes so he too can be in the mix
Whilst it would be tempting to put Allen straight in to the seniors, I think it’ll be beneficial to bring him back through the WAFL...
...HEdwards had a good game.
Darling was solid early, Snake late.
Hutchinson has solid awareness and skills. He should play next week.
RyanMaric plays. Stick him on the wing. His kicking is too good to be sitting on the bench for half a game.
Liam Ryan occupies space in the forward line. He...
How would I know?
The game turned when Ryan went into the middle. Should've been tried earlier obviously but it's something to work with.
Maric coming on also made us more potent moving the ball forward.
The point is, we had far more scoring shots and if we were close to 50% accuracy, we'd...
I think there were too many tall forwards last week. We ran out of legs in the end, Ryan and Cripps got 3 each and I think Darling maybe got 2 but we faded late.
Hutchinson is 22, he's hopefully got a good fitness base to work with albeit not with AFL pre-season style training.
Waterman runs...
The point I was trying to make is remove tk and reid and the i50 delivery isn't going to be flash something 'tall' key forwards rely on. There will be a lot of ground balls that don't suit our tall fwd line + the wet
Kelly is not our 2nd best field kick at all .
Regularly butchers the ball sometimes for whole games .
Best kicks in our team are ryan , maric , hough , sheed ( when he has time and space ) and this year McGovern ( when did that happen ? )
Both longy and dewar are very tidy too .
Backs - McGovern, Barrass, Witherden, Hough, Duggan, Cole plus one of Rotham or Edwards
Rucks - Flynn, B-Will
Mids - Yeo, Ginbey, Chesser, Gaff, Sheed plus one of Trew, Hall or Culley
Fwds - Darling, Cripps, Ryan, Petruccelle, Jones plus Waterman (if fit) or J-Will if he isn’t and one of...
That’s true but I was just looking at that Waterman story. Baker and Burgiel in the background in yellow. Assume it was the “best” (blue) vs the “rest” (yellow).
You’re right though, Flyin’ in the yellow along Harley, Maric & Trew.
Well I am not one of them, I have stated I dont know enough about them. It seems my legit genuine questions cant be answered without stupid replies.
Noone said Baker is getting us a top 4 pick
I answered.
Potentially yes. Bailey Williams, Jack Williams, RyanMaric or Archer Ried potentially could be best 22 players. They are still young, need development and opportunity.
The unwillingness for some fans to accept these players potential is the issue. And outside of the the top 3...
Serious question, as I truly dont know, and please for the love of god dont carry on again.
Outside of Allen and Waterman, which of these players would be genuine trade options and walk up starts or have potential to be starting 22 players in a good side?
Also could any of them replace Lynch...
