Changes for R11 v Geelong

[Gunnar Longshanks]

Fire at will...

 

[Mop]

Out: Nicoski (not a defender, would be well utilised on a HFF)

 

[ROYAL EAGLE]

To early but would like us to bring in McGinnity.

Drop Stinga and give McGinnity the next five games as a tagger.

Oh Houlihan should get a game reward his good form.

McGinnity, not ready just yet. Would love to see a guy who has been in great form in WAFL in the side, His name is Tim Houlihan

 

[gx122]

Mckinley had an off night.

Bring in Houli!

 

[swingdog]

OUT: Masten
IN: Houlihan

 

[Brave Sir Robin]

Out:
Nicoski, Stenglein, Hunter.

In:
Houlihan, Cockie, McGinnity.

 

[wirra44]

just saw the kerr incident it was no where near his plumbs more on the stomach and was just a hard bump which most afl players would stand tall and bump the player back but murphy fell down like a sack of potatoes.

 

[shibb]

I thought stinga did alright tonight as a tagger.

I think sad as it is, we need nikoski as wirra is too slow as a defender.

 

[RoJo Junior]

Nicoski OUT. I swear if we try and play him on another indigenous player im just gonna chuck something at the TV. Trust him to go to Varcoe next week, he'll bag 5 minimum.

Just because Nico is quick, he has no idea how to stop these small forwards. Last week Leon Davis killed him when he went forward, Betts and Garlett killed him tonight.

OUT: Nicoski, McNamara
IN: Davis, Houlihan

 

[Looking For 4th]

Maybe I'm wrong but Cockie is back on the rookie list and cant come back in unless he is elevated at someone elses expense. (One or 2 have called for his return)

Desperately need another small defender. Nico has no idea and Wirra is leaking goals like nobody's business!! Not sure what options we have left other than Davis, and I'm not sure what his form has been like in WAFL, but was pretty shaky at AFL level earlier in the year.

On another note I'm not sure we can continue to play McKinley and Lecras in the same forward line. It just doesnt seem to work with both of them in there. McKinley kicks goals against Sydney Lecras quiet. It was the reverse tonight. Too much alike?

So FWIW

Out: Nico and McKinley

In: Davis and Houlihan

 

[swingdog]

JMac stays. He was the only one in the second and third quarters who delivered quality passes into the forward 50.

I'm sorry, but I have to ask, does anyone else think Masten needs 3-4 weeks back in WAFL learning basic kicking and handballing skills?

 

[bunsen burner]

JMac stays. He was the only one in the second and third quarters who delivered quality passes into the forward 50.

I agree. Doesn't get enough ball but had some pretty good disposal tonight. Saw him give a couple of deft handballs in congested clearances.

I'm sorry, but I have to ask, does anyone else think Masten needs 3-4 weeks back in WAFL learning basic kicking and handballing skills?

I don't think he played particularly well but he got a bit more ball tonight. i'd just keep playing him for now.

Nope. Keep him in.

 

[wirra44]

does anyone know if priddis will be alright for next week.

 

[bunsen burner]

What to do with Wirra? He's really struggling.

Out: Wirra, Stenglein

In: Houlihan, Schofield or the Spanghmaster.

 

[Casperman]

In: Tim "The Harrow Thunderbolt" Houlihan

Out: Take your pick

 

[larrikin]

Ok
For those wanting Nicoski out. Have you seen the game?

No way he's out

Masten played well on the whole, was clean most of the time and was still running strong in the 2nd half. One passage of play where he put it on the chest of Kennedy from 40 odd meters away was class.

 

[Underrated]

Ok

No way he's out

Thank god someone with sense, Nico played well IMO, Betts kicked only 1 and Nicos had it 17 times with 88% efficent disposal.
Find a new whipping boy.

 

[Underrated]

Hopefully minimum changes this week, 1 or 2 no more than that, if we put that sort of effort in every week we could scrape another few ( 4 or 5) wins out of this season.

 

[WCE Ebert #18]

Ok

Thank god you said this.
thought i was going mad!!
seriously though was good tonight. kept betts to 1 goal.

 

[Sw3Et]

Out: Don't care
In: HOULIHAN! wtf does this guy need to do to get a game??? must be rooting Woosh's missus

 

[neng]

OUT: Masten
IN: Houlihan

I don't understand this.
Didn't play at all badly, had 22 disposals and tackled well.
There are worser players than him that could be dropped.

Out: McKinley (Unfortunate knock in Q1, but has been too inconsistent)
In: Houlihan?
Priddis (If available)

Even though he gets the ball, I'm just about sick of Rosa, he butchers the ball, puts his team mates under pressure in the process... oh and has no idea what a left foot is. AFL players should not be as one sided as he is.

I would also like to pay some acknowledgment to Scooter, he didn't get a great amount of the ball, but geez he goes hard. Has definately got the Selwood mongrel in him!

 

[Mop]

Ok
For those wanting Nicoski out. Have you seen the game?

No way he's out

I still think he's wasted as a defender.
Put him on the half forward flank where he can use his speed and long kick.

Put someone like Houlihan or Schoey on the HB flank.
