Changes for Saints

out: hocking, davey, h.slattery

davey may not have been 100% fit and we can't afford any passengers against the saints - i'd play quinn up forward and instruct him to run down and tackle etc - he has the pace etc. give davey a week in the vfl to improve his fitness and get some confidence.

hocking - agree with other posters that he is too slow to react and still coming to grips with the speed of afl. a week in the vfl for him.

h.slattery - we'll need high pace and skill to beat st kilda and slattery has neither of these. many are saying we need to match them for strength/tackling but we can't beat them at their own game. go with pace so leave him out.

In: Lovett, Lloyd, Bellchambers

Seemingly you would think by bringing in Lloyd and Bellchambers it might slow the side down - I don't think it will as Bellchambers will only play off the bench freeing up Ryder and going body on body with King/Gardiner. It also frees up Lovett-Murray from having to pinch-hit in ruck so he can play down-back in place of hocking/slattery. Bringing in Lloyd releases one of McPhee or Hurley to play down back also which could be crucial against the likes of riewoldt/koschitzke, mcevoy/gardiner.

Team:

B: (Fletcher - Gardiner), (Hurley - Koschitzke), (Reimers - Milne)
HB: (Dempsey - Gram) , (Pears - Riewoldt), (Atkinson - Schneider)
C: (Stanton - Montagna), (Watson - Ball), (Lovett - Jones)
HF: (Lovett-Murray - Blake), (McPhee - Fisher), (Quinn - Ray)
F: (Monfries - Goddard), (Neagle - Dawson), (Lloyd - Hudghton)
Foll: (Ryder - King), (Prismall - Hayes) , (Dyson - Dal Santo)
Int: Bellchambers, Lonergan, McVeigh, Houli
Emerg: Hooker, Davey, Hocking
 
Daniher seems like he should get a chance up forward after last week, especially if we only have Neagle up forward.

Atkinson definitely needs to stay in, he seems quite keen on doing all he can to do keep his spot next year and shows a lot more intensity that most of our players.

We need speed!!!

Possible Ins:
Jetta, Lovett, Bellchambers, Daniher, Lloyd?, Winderlich?.

Possible Outs:
Quinn, Hocking, Pears (inj), Davey, McVeigh, Atkinson.

Newspaper says Pears did his hammy. Davey, McVeigh and Hocking all out of form. We badly need an extra ruckman especially against the saints so Bellchambers should be a definite in. Lovett, Lloyd and Winderlich are no-brainers. They're only under question due to their lingering injuries. Jetta brings blistering speed and forward pressure whilst Daniher is up for selection due to great form!

Don't forget about his elite ball handling skills. :o

When the **** are people going to realise that Jetta is not really very quick at all?! :mad:
 
As far as I'm concerned.. The Bendigo Bombers are Finnished!

People said Neagle had been shitehouse at Bendigo all year.. Yet, he has been our most consistent forward all year! From just 2 games!

A bit of Irony and Sarcasm didn't hurt anyone. ;)

This is why I don't post here much.. People who just always think their smart by never reading between the lines and therefore produce BS!

I can see the irony in your post, but why? Nothing positive comes out of it in the end anyway.

Do you know what irony and sarcasm are?

You suggested we need speed, then proceeded to suggest four slow players to bring in with only two slow players to go out.
 
The Neagle comment was a joke.. Its ironic, because he has been one of our more consitent forwards all year.. The sarcasm is that he's only played 2 games so far.

And Ben.TG.. Why can't you accept that "possible ins" means they are "possibly" up for selection.

Last time I checked Jetta, Lovett and Winderlich are all speedy players..

They weren't the players I was referring to.
