Changes for round 6

[Andy_Mac]

I've got $100 on MFC scoring more than Gazza will have touches

Good bet?

 

[Ricky_15]

Not a bad bet mate.

Id say Melbourne will score 55
Ablett to have 48 touches

 

[master bate]

I've got $100 on MFC scoring more than Gazza will have touches

Good bet?

I fancy the tag Selwood leave Ablett alone theory will be thrown out the window after the last two weeks, whilst it was nice in theory I think nearly 100 touches in 2 weeks says all that needs to be said. Bartram goes to Gazza, should keep him in the 30's, if its a dry day we should be able to manage that much.

FF: Petterd Robbo Dunn
HF: Davey Miller Sylvia
C: Morton McLean Bruce
HB: Bennell Rivers Grimes
FB: Frawley Warnock Martin
Foll: Meesen Jones Bartram
Int: PJ Maric McDonald Moloney

Out: Newton, Jetta, Bate
In: Robbo, Maric, Grimes

Emer: Spencer, Bate, Cheney


First two changes are pretty straight forward. The first will happen, the second I'm not too sure about but won't be disappointed if it doesn't. After that if we send Dunn forward and Bartram into the middle to tag Ablett we need another defender (because I like playing Bruce and McDonald as midfielders). There is no point going for damage control back there (which would be McDonald or Bruce) so against the best in the comp lets give Grimes some exposure. I feel bad dropping Bate because he is a vital player when in form, but his last two weeks have been horrible.

Pre-Match: Melbourne v Geelong

Should we really stick with PJ or would we be better suited giving Spencer a chance? Assuming PJ will make room for Jamar when availible. Sunday nigh was F'ing cold and the foots was dead set sh!thouse and watching that monkey run around making oridinary people look special just didn't bring me much love.

I did however get much love from Juice's hit up to the hot spot in the 4th qtr... Would have been funnier if he'd just had a fresh airy. Begs the question is he the modern Darren Kowal?

btw i also got a 89.5 point start on the nose.

 

[lose]

anybody else think jonesy would benefit from a week in the 2s?

yep definetly if we had someone to come in for him... but we dont... he thinks hes gary ablett the way he tries to take on everyone... his job should be to get it and handball it but he cant even hit a target by hand...

 

[lose]

IN: (IF WE CAN)
ROBBO, WONNA, MARIC, JARRAH, Johnson
OUT: (PLEASE LET US)
NEWTON!! (Never to return), Morton, Brock (needs a rocket up his arse), Jones, Spencer.

Melbourne needs youngsters in, I know they will perform better then those i have allocated OUT!

you must be kidding you half wit... brock was near our best against adelaide i thought... he was crap the first few weeks and has just started to get back into it the last couple of weeks so wat a great idea to drop him for showing improvement...

and jarrah will not be playing for a while so can everybody please get it out of their heads until he plays a couple of decent games in a row, like really good games...

i think you should all get off newtons back, give him a couple of weeks with robbo in the team and see how he goes... i really liked his game against richmond so lets give him a few weeks before we show him the door please...
