Changes for Round 9

[kempy]

Out: Stupidity
In: Brains

 

[mitchzz]

Out: Nicoski, Seaby
In: Someone else, Naitanui

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Wouldn't make too many changes.

Kerr might be back, in which case McNamara would be first out I think.

 

[Max zero]

Kerr for Rosa
Hunter for Nicoski

 

[swingdog]

OUT: Nicoski
IN: Hunter

Seaby did okay, Kerr won't be ready, maybe Naita in for JMac.

 

[MaxHunt]

Why make changes? Nico maybe but only if someone else will add more.

Keep playing the kids.

 

[Deepthroat]

If Hunter comes back in he needs to play defence. The forward line look so much better tonight than with Hunter in it. The structure of McKinley playing deeper works a treat.

 

[Darkness Falls]

Out: Nicoski, J-Mac
In: Hunter, Houlihan

I think Hunter is definitely coming in to play for his 150th and possibly final game and even though I don't think it will happen, I'd like Houlihan to come in.

 

[Monkey Worshipper]

Hunter in to give him his 150th and then out until his shoulder is 100%. If it never gets to 100% then its curtains on a fantastic 150 games.

Cannot afford to have any passengers, and he's been one of them.

 

[larrikin]

Nicoski will play next week

100% guaranteed

 

[faisan]

I think they should stick with Seaby for a couple more games. he did ok tonight and it allowed Lynch to play forward more and he did well. I quite like lynch at Half Forward cause his kicking inside 50 is generally very accurate and he can bomb the long goal too.

When hes playing FF, he can tend to not kick through the ball resulting in inaccurate kicking at goal.

I reckon keep the team the same unless Kerr is fit.

 

[anti.]

is kerr back?

if so, nico out. it wont happen though...one of the kids will make way (jmac or cockie unfortunately).

keep seaby in, mainly for the fact that lynch can slot in at FF allowing JK to do his thing at CHF. i also think lynch at FF helps bmac take a smaller/lesser opponent.

I agree with the above about Seaby, i think we have such a better side when we have 2 ruckman thus allowing Lynch to play longer up forward and Cox to rest there. I would keep seabs until nata is ready to go.

Only change i would look at is maybe Nico, but if there is noone else who can offer what he does then we will perservere with him

 

[Crimson King]

In: Kerr, Hunter
Out: J-Mac, ?

I thought Seaby was shite for the first two quarters but in the second half did his job very well.

 

[daddy_4_eyes]

Seaby was good tonight. Anyone calling for him to be dropped is being blinded by the anti-Seaby sentiment on this board.

 

[Quinz]

Yes I liked Seaby, thought it allowed Cox more freedom up forward and Lynch didn't have to worry about being backup ruckman.

Kerr has to come in, Hunter likely as well.

 

[Looking For 4th]

Tough call next week on dropping someone after a pretty even performance all round. Hunter will likely be in, so someone will have to go unfortunately. Kerr sounds as though he'll probably miss another week..

As has been said Seaby's ruckwork was pretty good tonight and allowed Lynchy and Cox more time up forward.

On another note, quiet game from Lecca. It seems as though he's having trouble dealing with taller defenders so a bit of work required there to sort that out.. (And no I'm not suggesting he gets dropped, just an off night)

 

[St Gers]

Out: Nicoski. Rosa
In: Huner, Natanui

I'd like to get naitanui in the side and plonk him on the wing or something. Let him do so boundary throw ins, but more so to give him a run and add that X-factor. Wouldn't mind someone else besides Priddis who can tackle.

Rosa: got to go. soft performance. Don't mind that he didn't get a lot of kicks but he's sooooo soft. Won't go into hard contests and has poor defensive skills.

 

[HawkPatrol]

From an outside observer of the game:

IN: Hunter, Ebert/Swift
OUT: Brown, Nicoski

 

[CursoryMercenary]

In: Naitanui, Kerr.

Out: Seaby (unlucky good return), Nicoski.




If Naitanui is not deemed 'ready' for AFL I have no problem with Seaby staying in the team. It's ironic that Lynch had his best Full Forward game with Seaby back in. It clearly prooves you need 2 Ruckman and not 1.5 Ruckman in your 22.

Nicoski was decent last week without getting much of the ball v Melbourne and shut down Davey but this week was mistake ridden and none of the young lads (Selwood, Masten, Cockie) deserve to lose their spots.

 

[purple hater]

I think our structure was much better with Seaby in the team. It allowed Lynch to be in the forwardline and Cox to be used close to goal as well.

Nicoski had a shocker, but has been good in the last few weeks when given a tagging role. Maybe he just has to be given a job to stop a forward and not be asked to, make any kind of decision. Collingwood have lots of small forwards, we need him to stop one of them.

If Kerr is fit then McNamara out for him, otherwise just leave it alone.

 

[Monkey Worshipper]

From an outside observer of the game:

IN: Hunter, Ebert/Swift
OUT: Brown, Nicoski

Hunter only to get a game because of his 150th.

Otherwise to be retired until his shoulder is a 100%. A former shadow of the champion he once was. Couldn't lift his arms above his head if his life depended on it.

Liability to the team and holding back the devolpment of our forward line.

And it pains me to say this.

 

[mitchzz]

From an outside observer of the game:

IN: Hunter, Ebert/Swift
OUT: Brown, Nicoski

I thought Brown did alright.

 

[Eastern Rangers]

In: Kerr, Seaby

Out: Butler, Hunter

I would like to see Ebert get a game if Kerr is out again. Seaby will be dropped for Nicknat eventually, but they might decide his not needed against Fraser.

 

[weagles_fan]

If Nicoski is not dropped I will be filthy. All he did was turn the ball over with every possession. Can't even kick to a team mate 20 metres away
