Changes for Richm'd (see team in OP, Aish & Broomy in, Varcoe out, Cox omit, & Daicos an emergency!)

[adammania9]

OUT: Goldsack, Blair, Cox
IN: Dunn, Elliott, randomly selected 2017 club member

 

[robertg22]

I wouldn't drop Darcy, but would seriously consider swapping him for Reid for a quarter or two next week..

Cox gets another week, but would be on thin ice.

In: Aish, Broomhead, Dunn (better match up for Riewoldt than Schade)
Out: Varcoe (susp), Blair, Schade

 

[Obese Arachnid]

Haven't really read thread.

Out: Schade Smith Cox Blair (though once again he presents & gets opportunities, diminishing return though)
IN: I'll figure that out later. I know Bucks will be hanging for it.

If Schade goes out & they bring in Quayphe we're ****ed. Game has passed by guys with the turning circle of the QE2.

EDIT: We could really could do with support for Moore. Is Travis Cloke available?

Not a Smith fan? Thought he was decent enough, particularly in the first half. Runs hard

He's lost unless he has space. Defensively poor.

 

[robertg22]

Not a great tackler I agree but he did a couple of good things 1on1 in the back half I thought. I think he's a pretty neat footballer, won't ever be a match winner but provides a reliable contribution each week.

 

[Chrispiesssss]

Just need more KPP depth.

 

[ant22]

Why the calls for a schade to be dropped. I thought he looked pretty good. Blair and Goldsack out for mine.

 

[ppoiter]

144 times


(144 games)

A rough, back of the envelope calculation says we've played 151 times since his debut. Is that right? Cant be many who've played more since then

 

[Horaceg]

Bit of a risk to chuck Elliot straight back in

Risk not to imho

Scarey isn't it.
He's barely missed a game.

Never see him do a De Goey or get injured or anything

 

[Horaceg]

Moore was ******* inept after a bad preseason. Not only did nothing but any time he did touch the ball it was beneficial to the opposition. Worst on ground.

Has to get his head out of his ass and be dropped to earn his spot.

Maybe hanging out with JDG too much

I admit I'm a bit guilty in this Schade business.
He's very unlucky if Dunn gets in over him.
He did ok last night.

I'd like to see Dunn at it v Richmond then decide which one gets the nod overall

 

[iGNITER]

INS: Elliott, Aish, Dunn, Broomhead
OUTS: Varcoe (susp.), Cox, Blair, Schade

B - Ramsay Dunn Goldsack
HB - Maynard Reid Howe
C - Phillips Treloar Sidebottom
HF - Elliott White Hoskin-Elliott
F - Mayne Moore Fasolo
R - Grundy Adams Pendlebury
INT - Aish Smith Broomhead Crisp

 

[Go Pies!!!!!]

Out: Blair (Please) Varcoe (susp) Cox
In: Daicos, Aish, Keefe

Elliot unlikely next week,
Varcoe will get 2 weeks, Blair please enough is enough, Cox just doesn't offer enough up forward and Grundy plays better when he rucks by himself
Daicos give him a go will offer more than Blair ( otherwise Elliot will play)
Aish need him through the midfield as well
Keefe no other options to replace Cox.

 

[jefffff34]

OUT: Garden Gnome (Blair), Varcoe, American Ex-Pie (Cox), Phillips

IN: Dunn, Elliot, Daicos, Aish

Wtf...

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

We may be stuck with Blair until we get some injured players back. To his credit he did work hard and win plenty of ball. But the clangers cost us the match, especially in the first quarter

Cox cant play in our 22. He does nothing. Keeffe when ready will walk into this team

Out Cox Blair Goldsack

In Aish Broomhead Dunn

 

[Matt_352]

this year needs to be blair and goldsacks last imo. They arent going to get ua to a flag. Pump games into the likes of Daicos Shaz Brown etc. Instead.

 

[Ugene41]

Blair really just needs to go. Adds absolutely nothing. If this game doesn't justify dropping him then unfortunately we'll just be stuck with him all season again. Basically playing 1 man down.

I don't really understand the hate on Cox's game though. It wasn't a KPF game at all. No KPF had an impact. I felt like he actually competed quite well up forward and had some deft taps and touches. He had much better game than Million dollar grand final hero Boyd.

 

[jmac70]

Cox out.

 

[magpies42]

First thread in internet history where everyone universally agrees.

Blair out.

I don't, he is a scapegoat. He wasn't alone with poor decision making and skill errors tonight. He applies pressure and goes hard, will improve as he gets back into the tempo. Unfortunateky I don't see who else can come in to replace him.

 

[magpies42]

Blair and Cox out, Broomhead and Aish in. Varcoe should be fine it was nothing.

Why Cox and not Moore, our forwards tonight were entirely rubbish as a group (save Fas for a period in the 2nd). Probably more a function of our poor delivery and decision making, and uncharestic poor conversion. Cox was good in the ruck. From what Bucks said he liked rotating a tall off the bench, gave us an ascendancy in the ruck.

 

[BEEG]

I would have Aish in over Phillips, don't get me wrong I like the kid his disposal is horrible which is a key weakness in our team.

 

[BEEG]

In - Aish and Greenwood
Out Cox and Phillips

Blair isn't going anywhere so why bother.

Greenwood runs with Cotchin, Aish plays on the flank.

 

[Tarkyn_24]

Blair and Cox out, Broomhead and Aish in. Varcoe should be fine it was nothing.

This but Mayne out instead of Cox, as much as I disliked Cox's game this week.
