Outs: Myers, Nash, Dyson
Ins: McPhee, McVeigh, NLM/Houli/Atkinson or whoever plays well at VFL level.

Lets get some bigger bodies back in and have a real crack at a finals birth.

Myers looks like he can barely get out of second gear so back to the twos to get fitness and form. The other two are self explanatory.

I thought everyone was good again tonight, even the late change Nash was good, got plenty of it, used it well. Gee Dyson is fast establishing himself now isnt he. That kick to Skipworth was awesome, and is starting to go in for the hardball too. I like the idea of getting Myers into more of a midfield role. So that could be an option of:

OUT: Myers

IN: Mcphee
 
McPhee and McVeigh would be walk up starters. Id be inclined to give Lonergan another week.

Most obvious out for me would be Nash, was awful, showed no intensity till the last qtr and really looked like he didnt wanna be there for most of the game. Any of Jetta, Dyson or Myers would be next.
 
That was such a good win that Lonergan may have to play for Bendigo next week. This is definitely a good thing.

Out: Myers, Nash
In: McVeigh, McPhee
 
Definitely need to knock Dyson out of the senior team.

Absolutely useless and weak for a player who has been at the club for the best part of 5 years. No heart whatsoever when games are hang in the balance and definitely nowhere to be sighted. Just making up the numbers while some of our best 22 are out injured.

With Winders back in full flight, would like to hope that Dyson will be playing his final season in the red and black.

All I hope is Bellchambers can bring it to the table to help validate offloading Laycock also and I'll be content for 2010.

Feels a lot like 1993 when I felt the same about Flood and Somerville.

Nash doesn't seem to have much apart from a good long kick either. He doesn't appear to have improved either. Spare parts player with no sense of ownership for a position in our best 22.

In Mcphee, McVeigh
Out: Myers/Nash, Dyson

Mcphee was our best forward for the first two games, and would have been handy today.

Mcveigh is a gimme.

Dyson performed okay, but has no future like many said. He is below average and his good games only put him at 15th best or so.
Myers needs more game time, and nash isn't in our best 22 so one should really go. Myers has more upside but nash played a better game.
I would keep jetta in the side, because i think he compliments davey and make out forward line more dangerous, specially with the height we will be playing.
 
I think we need to give Myers more game time. I am sure that Knights is playing him the way he is for a reason, but i really feel like he needs to play on the wing and get some confidence. He doesn't look like a natural defender it seems to impede his natural inclinations. Dyson and Nash are obviously not in our best team and anyone suggesting NLM come in should be axed!! McPhee will get a game, but I am not 100 convinced he is in our best team, If Gus Monfries keeps on task (with Mcphee out, Gus was Sensational last night) I would rather Monfries and Reimers on the forward flanks.
Jetta Looked completely freaked out last night. We saw last year that he can string some great games together, but he didn't look ready last night. I am willing to stand by him, with he and Davey in the pockets we look very very dangerous and not many teams are gona have 2 small defenders to match that kinda pace...


In: McVeigh McPhee
Outs: Nash Dyson
 
Out: Nash, Dyson, Myers, Jetta. In: Mcphee, McVeigh, Houli, Lonergan. Dyson won't be pulled *sigh*
 
Out: Nash, Myers, Dyson/Jetta
Reimers? (Will he be right to play?)

Knights didn't mention him in the press conference when asked who would be back next week. So, Hopefully he is back for Anzac Day... It's been soooo long since we have seen him on the field, Since he did his Hammy against the Demons in Round 18! For my money he is gonna make a massive difference to the half forward line
 
In : McVeigh, McPhee
Out : Nash, Jetta

Myers on the cusp of getting dropped if Lonergan can come up.

He doesn't have that. Nash is an ordinary kick of a football.

Why are so many Essendon supporters of the opinion that Nash is a good kick?
 
Myers should not be dropped.

We need to get as much game time into our youngsters as possible. I think this is the view of Knights also.

He is lacking touch at the moment but he had an injury interupted pre season. He will get his touch and confidence back after a few more games.
 
No more than 2 changes. McPhee and McVeigh are almost forced changes, but you make as few changes to a side that won like that as you can.

To be honest, I'm leaving any thought of changes to the coaching staff, too many dilemmas. All 22 that played last night have a case.

In: McVeigh McPhee
Outs: Nash Dyson

Couldnt agree more, I believe he can be a very damaging player, however he doesnt look like a very good defender and at the moment is often being led to the ball rather then anticipating where its going to go and therefore he is unable to do what he is down in the backline for, to REBOUND!
 
Definetly drop Jetta he was hopeless last night. Remeber when he ****ed up a hand ball in our half forward. I gave him the biggest spray i've ever given an Essendon football. Tell you the truth i'm surprised i didn't get booted out of the mcc for it.

He laid some crucial tackles, also his defensive pressure was good. Noticed he marked Fev closely when he was waiting for a cheap handball outside the 50, very quick thinking from Leroy. If he had kicked those two goals he would have been very good.
