Changes for Showdown

[FishingRick04]

I’m going to be a little off centre with the majority here but I thought Drew was okay, not great.
The reason for this is he has a lot of almost moments. His disposal under pressure is okay but he misses targets, slip to much, noticed this week and last.

not droppable but needs to be fixed as I feel he’s keeping Rocky out

First game back and all but SPP was rubbish

I'd probably have SPP over Rocky at this stage. I don't think SPP was bad.

Our game plan really really stank. I'm not sure I'm looking that closely at players to be honest.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Lol we are not dropping Dixon.

Nor should we.

People on this board confuse 'not performing up to expectation' with droppable. Dixon isn't playing at his best but who's gonna come in and play his role better? Ladhams? Hayes, who's a good talent but isn't a natural forward? Ollie ****ing Lord? No chance.

Hartlett on the other hand, McKenzie or Lienert could easily outperform what he's given us this year.

Dixon is droppable but it wouldn't be replacing his role it would be a forward line rejig, I wouldn't mind a look at it purely to see a different mix but I'm not doing it in a hasty reaction to last night although I agree with Derm he looked tired if that continues a rest is on the cards.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Yes, runs hard to either get on the end of other people's hard work

Lol. Yes, he's a half forward, that's literally his role. If we didn't have players getting on the end of other people's hard work then we'd never kick any goals.

Soft, fumbly and when the going gets tough is only ever found turning the ball over.

The last time the going got tough against this week's opponent he literally won the game for us off his own boot.

 

[Visenfest]

Out: Hartlett, Woodcock, Mayes
In: Bonner, Boak, McKenzie or Lienert

Not Farrell please.

 

[Windy Cindy]

In: Boak, McKenzie, Ladhams, (Rockliff)

Out: Hartlett, Clurey, Georgiades, (Mayes)

Georgiadis? You can’t be serious

the kids a gun and had a great start to the season.

Do you think Rocky SPP and Wines is the way to go?

I think he’s given us a different dimension in the midfield.

Part of me thinks Ken will just revert to the same old as soon as he can.

 

[PowerBaz]

I’m sure Ladhams comes in again soon, still don’t think we function that well from mid-forward half.

 

[philthy05]

Georgiadis? You can’t be serious

the kids a gun and had a great start to the season.

Georgiades was very poor last night, just invisible, and has had some excellent games, okay games, and not so good games this year.

for a 19yr old key forward whose kit bag is playing deep and flying for marks this should be expected and we should absolutely persist with him and continue to develop him.

 

[philthy05]

I’m sure Ladhams comes in again soon, still don’t think we function that well from mid-forward half.

It’s a bit of a quandary.
Ladhams doesn’t deserve his spot..

but since we’ve been rucking Dixon and Marshall our forward line has functioned worse and those players have played worse.

 

[Waspy79]

Marshall has let us down far too often. Missed set shots, dropped marks, soft tackles. Out.

 

[PowerBaz]

Let him earn it. The guy can play, just been out of form but when he’s in form he’s great, and a better ruck option.

Hayes.

 

[philthy05]

Absolutely must be outs - Hartlett, Mayes. Insipid performances for multiple weeks

Strongly considered to go out - woodcock
Offered nothing without strong recent form to save him

if really cutting - Fantasia, Frederick
Good recently but insipid performance last night. Probably safe but If these players have a poor game next week have to go out.

consider themselves extremely lucky - Dbj! If jones was healthy would drop Dbj for him in a heartbeat. Disgusting performance and has been bad this year. Drinking his own bath water on the back of his all-Aus year.

Houston is either not close enough to 100% or a soft****. Needs a rest or a rocket!

burton may miss due to injury.

pending today’s game considerations have to go to Rockliff, lienert, McKenzie and bonner first, and ladhams or hayes if our forward structure / 2nd ruck is an issue we want to address.

 

[Windy Cindy]

I’m sure Ladhams comes in again soon, still don’t think we function that well from mid-forward half.

No thanks he’s not the answer

he adds absolutely nothing.. nope he actually adds more frustration

hes a poor mans josh jenkins

 

[LeoMessi]

Out: Dixon, stiffycock, Mayes, hartless
In: anybody else

Tbh would never happen but it should be this. I would add Rozee to the list

 

[Eighteen Seventy]

It's comical that McKenzie can't get a game with all of our current outs. He's actually a very versatile player and could fill just about any role yet he's being pigeonholed as a key defender only whilst we play the likes of Mayes and Woodcock. It's actually beyond a joke.

Ken Hinkley is a pig-headed coach. His stubbornness briefly went away last year, but we all knew he'd get comfortable after scoring another undeserving large contract extension and the stubborn arrogance would return.

 

[Hong-Kong Phooey]

Out Frederick, woodcock, Hartlett, Burton (inj), mayes
In - Mckenzie, bonner, boak, Rocky, Leinert

 

[Eighteen Seventy]

Was just going to say out rain in Sun FFS

The BOM is forecasting 0-6mm. It'll be light showers at best I reckon.

 

[Nelso]

Hartlett has been trash all year. Has to be dropped

Would rather keep Freddy in the team ahead of Hartlett.

 

[JimmyBC]

Leinert is so SANFL I guess it's where we are at again when we are piping his name.

 

[jdeezy]

This week will be a good opportunity for our Vice Captain to put on the bars. Hartlett has to be dropped. He won't, but he should be.

I also wouldn't be against remixing our tall forwards but I don't see anyone knocking down the door so don't know how we can.

 

[RustyCage]

Hartlett, Marshall, Mayes out

 

[RustyCage]

Bergman?

What games have you been watching.

He is developing beautifully and is going to be a star.
