Out: Crichton, Van Berlo, Bucovaz. These guys just gave the ball away every single time they had it poor effort.

In: Dont care, just not them
 
Would we really want to bring in Hayden and Silvagni who have had one game of WAFL reserves between them? I know we were deplorable today but I doubt 2 half fit players would make the situation better. The only realistic inclusion is Roberton, since Palmer for some reason can't get a game. There's effectively nothing after that.

Hinkley and De Boer have to go aswell. hayden silvagni, palmer, mellington schammer all in
 
ok i'll revise. Out: Crichton, Van Berlo, Hinkley In: Palmer, Hayden, Silvagni Hope that grover and pav are ok
 
OUT: van Berlo (never to be played again, until he can make decent decisions in the WAFL), Hinkley, Clarke, Crighton

IN: Palmer, Schammer, Walters and either Hayden or Silvagni whoever is less injured. I know we are sctraching the bottom of the barrell here - and we may need more ins in Grover, Crowley or Pavlich are injured.

I thought Bucovaz at least tried hard in the end and seemed to have some desperation to him that was lacking.

Also - we need de Boer in the forward line - he is such a liability in defence and around the ground because of his kicking skills. We also need Lower in the middle around the ball not in the back pocket. If we had more people in the WAFL, I would also drop de Boer, Pearce, Bucovaz.

Did anyone see Hayden, Houghten and Walters play on the weekend?

JVB and Crichton out. Terrible footskills. I only watched the second half and I think the two of them were responsible for about 4 - 6 goals.

Thought Bouca was unsteady with his kicking in the third but he had a good last quarter. Bit to work with there.

Silvani isn't ready I'm afraid. Played half a game for Peel Ressies

The possible ins:
Roberton, Palmer, Hayden, Walters, Sandilands, Bradley (??)

Outs:
Crichton, JVB, Hinkley, Pearce, Griffin/Clarke (??), Grover (??)
 
We will have to see how the injury situation is. Grover, Crowley and Pav may be in doubt. I would drop JVB and Crighton, possibly Hinckley.

Bring in Palmer, Hayden (anyone know how he and walters went yesterday?) Mellington, maybe Roberton, who else is fit?????

I'm assuming injuries to Grover and Crowley here. Doubt Silvagni will be fit, and Hayden might be a bit underdone too. But whatever happens, the first three outs need to be dropped. And DeBoer only keeps his spot because there is nothing else to bring in.

In: Bradley, Mellington, Hayden, Palmer, Roberton
Out: Crichton, van Berlo, Pearce, Grover, Crowley

Also, I know it's a radical change, but how about we bring in an actual setup in our forward line? Even if it is just having a resting ruckman and a medium/small hanging back there. In that last quarter, Hinkley was seemingly our only forward at times. I know I talk Hinkley up a fair bit, but what the hell is he supposed to do up there by himself?
 
I don't care, as long as we get rid of Crichton and JVB - fighting each other for the most number of f**kups today.
 
Whether Palmer is going to GWS or not, it is quite ridiculous the situation has got to the point where he is not playing and absolute crabs like JVB and Crichton are getting games. That game from Crichton today was beyond awful, I didn't think he was nearly that bad.
 
Is Pitt available? What about Walters? We need a small forward that can kick a goal, even if they aren't up to Ballantyne level....

I know the whole Clarke / Griffin thing worked once, but it hasn't worked since and I just don't know Clarke is giving us anything teamwise. Assuming Bradley is available I'd do that switch.

Id play Hayden if he is fit enough to play 3/4. Just gives the better decision making and that experience in the back half then say I Crichton or other.

I say the chances of having a good forward structure now and into the future were thrown out when we decided to skip on Darling.
The match commitee obviously don't place a great emphasis on it, as long as we have players with excellent foot skills delivering it into the forward line, we should be fine :o

out: crichton, JVB, grover (injured),
in: kepler, palmer and silvagni

i like crichton, he is still young and will be a good player, had a poor game today, but i can already see that he is getting the typical big footy "he's shit" status

JVB, IS HORRIBLE, he has played one good game out of 30-odd, he can join schammer in the GTFO status

grover has done a groin, will miss weeks, unfortunate as he ahs had a great year

hinkley was great last week and he looked good in parts today, much worse performers than him today

bucovaz has played one game, and should be persisted with, especially with grover going down

probably because he is
 
Didn't think Hinkley was as bad as some are suggesting. JVB and Chrichton yes, but Hinkley was no worse than many others. And whoever said Pearce needs to get their eyes checked. Clancee is no world-beater but he hits the contest hard, has decent skills and makes reasonable decisions. While there are so few available behind him, he stays IMO. Buco was ok.

Hopefully Kepple is ok for next week, and if Roger got through the indigenous game, then I'd be definitely bringing him in.

Well most premierships these days are won with atleast one big key forward who takes a lot of grabs, but the rest of the forward line is rotating midfielders and small players like Ballantyne who apply pressure.
